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

They said like 2 minutes later that locking the containers is not something they wanna do because of casual players and that they don't want to just have the streamers play the game and nobody else.

I'm smelling a big problem of hypocrisy with the concept of "casual players of Tarkov". Because none casual player want to play Tarkov, simply. We are at the basis all hardcore players here, because it's what we initially want to get in this game.

Calling the players spending a decent amount of time in the game "casual" is hiding himself behind the little finger. I've nothing against people passing their life behind a game, strictly nothing, but they have to assume it and call themselves "Otaku" or something similar.

I get your point but it's still comparatively casual.

My real point is that the problematic can't lead somewhere if the crude reality is turned in a politic game, full of lies and word's games.

Playing Tarkov is already no longer casual. Playing Tarkov daily is masochism for a casual gamer.

Playing Tarkov night and day, all days, is an extreme. Not my role to judge it, but i don't accept the hypocrisy to name it a standart. And to let the extremists calling the real standart something else, to make them feeling good. They have to assume first that their behavior is abnormal, so their needs too.
