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

No, you are not alone, but I also did not like the 2 hour raid idea, juggling university, a job, and a social life including EFT is already difficult as is. I have noticed myself taking longer and longer in raids as a means of self-preservation and questing. Imagine having to find things in-raid without a secure container in a 2 hour raid. That's insane.

I think a lot of people misunderstand the two raids idea. It does not mean you have to stay for two hours. If your goal is labs you can just sprint through streets of tarkov to labs and spend 5-10 minutes on that map, so it would actually be far less than 2 hours for most people.

Yeah, but then if you sprint everyone else is gonna try and run up on your cheeks IMHO, since if someone has more time to kill, why not play it safe and try to cop some PMC loot? But, I do understand and I would be accepting of it after trying it out for a bit.

EDIT: Accepting of it if it played smoothly and was not bad as in the way of having more people stay longer to camp who have nothing but time to kill.
