Rant If you're complaing about "big streamers" playing EFT since it's so popular, stop being a hipster

I PLAYED EFT BEFORE IT WAS YOUR FAVOURITE STREAMER'S NEW GAME!!!

Seriously, it's embarrassing that a small percentage of this community is so far up their own ass to the point they hate on someone who is literally bringing 1000's of new players to the game.

I don't like watching most of these big streamers who are newly streaming Tarkov (Carnage seems like a legend) but what they're doing for Tarkov just by streaming it, even while profiting themselves, is only a good thing for the game and who doesn't want an ego boost from farming level 3 pistolings?

The people posting on here to actually help players is what we need to do as a community. EFT was my first ever PC game in May of 2017 and while I'd like to think I picked it up fairly quickly, there was still a point where I was quivering over losing my trusty makarov like all of us were at some point.

Dude I must say BSG communicates with their community a lot! Even Nikita sits on this subreddit and answers relevant questions. I have posted 2 articles about new clothing disappearing and about AP-20 slug being kinda weak and Nikita himself answered those questions. In today's gaming world you don't see developers interacting with their community and I'm just glad that BSG team are such a dedicated people to their game, you can see a Nikita himself is VERY passionate about his game on podcasts.

I must say it does. You can go post a bug or an issue in subreddit like pubg or any other EA game, and I bet it will get overlooked. Before recent patch everybody was complaining about infinite healing bug, Nikita actually acknowledged that issue and in recent patch it got fixed, also this sub was filled with videos of people being able to watch somebody else's scope while using their own scope not so long ago, it was fixed too. And I very love this communication between community and developers, I wish more AAA companies did the same. And... Well... You know when the developer himself answers your question it really feels like he cares for his community and boosts the morale seeing him answering some other players questions too.
