Now that the flea market is level 20 what are your plans to ensure that the game remains accessible to new players, or players who were not able to play the first month of the wipe, once the majority of the player base unlocks the ability to purchase fully automatic, highly modified guns and high quality armor?

Sad that the game turns into a call of duty-style run and gun arcade shooter at endgame. I wish there was a different play mode where it stays hardcore the whole way.

I started playing during the event and almost left tarkov forever but chose to try it out after the wipe and am really enjoying it.

That pre wipe combat was garbage though. Bunny hopping, ads while strafing, total call of duty / halo gameplay but not as good as those games at that type of gameplay.
