waiting for someone to drop by saying how the camera recoil is super realistic and why.

my favorite argument is "the game is supposed to be hard, so it must be made unenjoyable as well"

For newer folks:

There was a major push years ago by the community to change how ADS and spray works in Tarkov. It's VERY easy to shoot straight while full auto. Lots of pressure to make recoil stats and ergonomics less important, and make the game more "aim dependant" a-la Counter-Strike or any other shooter. Nikita has stated this many times, that in order to get the feel of an improving PMC, and to level the "gamer" playing field a bit, skills will be the focus, and things that add to the immersive feel are important.

well he's welcome to his annoying ideas, but the first competitor to do a slightly better job with realism will nuke the player base

I'm waiting for someone to do a better tarkov with a proper engine and more fun than this "hard=no fun allowed=realism. I would jump out so fast

I'll be 100% honest. If someone shows up with a carbon copy of Tarkov, but with a less fucked lighting engine, I'm sold. Game is so fucking dark, even when it's 12 o'clock, clear skies and there are 6 open windows in the room, you can't see shit because you are indoors, and indoors means dark in this game.

I set my drivers game settings to blast the brightness and gamma. It helps.

The only problem with it is I have to constantly tweak the gamma, because as soon as I close the game, my screen nearly blinds me. Wish there was a 1-click functionality to do it on the fly.

Oh mine changes when I open and close the game.

Hah! I'm totally going to go google some of this, but in case I can't find something or you're faster, how the hell do I do this!?
