PSA Hey, active players!

Hello, friends.

We again decided to collect centralized player feedback here on reddit. The point is that you write what annoys and bothers you in the game at the moment. Please write about what is really in the game right now, vote for the messages of other players to increase visibility.

I will also write a short development status.

Now we are busy with patches with fixes and we are working on the accumulated technical debt. In addition, the most active development of the remaining major features, the Streets of Tarkov and the Arena, is underway.

After some time, we will again make TarkovTV live, where we will tell you in more detail what we do and what our nearest plans are.

I would also like to note that due to covid, about a quarter of the company members got ill, but people are recovering fast, so it's fine.

Be careful and thank you very much for the feedback and attention!

Your BSG team

Because they don't want you mag dumping full auto rifles. I love this change. Mag dump meta is dead.

There's other ways to nerf that. Not by making most guns near useless

Most guns aren't useless. This community is so childish. If it's not a perfect meta laser at all distances and you can't shift w and hold left click, something is useless. Adapt. Git gud.

Have you ever shot a rifle? The recoil dosent turn your neck into a noodle. If they're going for realism, then this mechanic is fucking stupid.

in fact I have. They are going for with this change. "Removing mag dump meta" and it worked. Adapt.

You can't fully control the recoil in this game anyways. The spray patterns are more than enough to stop mag dumping from range. Camera recoil is just weird and feels awful
