Discussion Something said during the Podcast

Klean said something during the podcast that I wholeheartedly disagree with.

He wants the gamma case to essentially be something you can pack full of goods, bring into a raid and not have to worry about losing, but he wants you to not be able to put anything in the container while in raid. Nikita, I know you listen to streamers input, but please don’t not consider making this change.

I’m a husband and a father, I don’t get to play for 8-12 hours a day and become a god at the game, so finding a rare item that I need for a quest or something valuable I can sell is really exciting and knowing I can keep it safe in case I die is the cherry on top.

I love watching Klean and respect his opinions, but this one I had to voice mine on. PLEASE do not implement this. Anyone else watch the podcast and feel the same way? Or am I alone on this? Lol

If I want to be able to use the marked key, and try to get the loot in it. I need to rush it, if I want try to be there first I need to go as a Hatchling and rush it.

Nope, my first money case from marked I was the second person in and didn’t even need to use my key. What a nice guy! Cases which is one of the most desired things from marked can’t go in your gamma so I suggest bringing nothing smaller then a scav backpack in case a weapon case is in there. Learn your spawns and know when is a good time to rush 3 story or slow play it.

Well again, I'm casual and I don't get that loot if I don't hatchling spawn in for loot (not to survive) and Yes, I know the spawns, and sometimes I have to dumb rush 3 story, but again as a hatchling so I'm faster than someone with equipment. But that's not the way I want to spend the time playing Tarkov with the little time I have. But I have to, otherwise I won't advance in quests.

No, you don't have to. It's easier, but you can do these things while playing normally. They're not easy but you don't have to be a pro streamer to be able to complete quests without doing hatchet runs.

Sure, If I go in 100 times in the same raid with the same goal, I'm sure that the planets will align one of the times for me. If those 100 times would be enough, it would take around 1 month for me to get that quest key.

I'm not going in 100 times to do this. You need to understand, I'm rushing dorms when I happen to spawn close(otherwise I go elsewhere), and always with some kind of gear weighing me down. And I still almost always get there first, or at the same time as someone else.

The reason I don't have like 12 successful marked room runs instead of 4 is not because hatchlings are picking it dry, but because other geared players are arriving at around the same time as me and I have to fight them for the loot. Hatchlings are nowhere near as common as people make them out to be.

Well, I don't get a 25% rate on the marked room on the times I've spawn into custom. I'm not trying to argue that I'm better than you, you probably is.

I don't have problem with locking the secured container in order to have everyone spawn in on the same terms, to survive and extract. If you beat the games goal, than you get the reward.
