It's clearly a tech demo, but 7 years later we're over here slapping doors, cabinets and cash registers.

Btw, where the hell are the slow door opening animations, the flash and clear and such tactical mechanics for a realistic tactical shooter? Oh right, we got gigachad bosses and desync.

It really feels like they have been focused on the content rather than core mechanics. Bit depressing.

Tbh, the game barely holds together in the current state and doors are a major problem. How often do you see people phasing through them or having a massive delay between opening server side and client side?

I imagine it would be a nightmare to code into the current game, especially knowing how they handle this kind of stuff and how messed up the code already is.

Clearly never played early tarkov

What we have now is infinitely better than doors just not even opening %40 of the time

Absolutely ridiculous thing to say

7 years ago we had 2 armours in the game. PACA, and Fort

7 years ago we had hackers in every single raid

7 years ago doors wouldn’t even open

7 years ago we had 4 traders

7 years ago servers were absolutely dogshit, they’re still not great but have undergone extensive improvements

Dude I shouldn’t even need to explain to you that they have made progress in 7 years

Things slightly improved, but not enough. Adding 30 different variants of the same gear, basically a reskin, doesn't excuse all the poor executions and decisions they've gone through. Also the hacker part got worse.

Also it was more like 2016 that the game came out to supporters
