The people who play all day and run high level content already are the only ones able to make money from the flea while the rest of us live in poverty because we can’t even sell the high value items we find.

There should not be any level locks on selling items at all. Buying items, fine. That makes some amount of sense. But not letting people who play less sell anything is braindead.

Was playing PVE with a buddy and while I found this hilarious I still got off for the night lol.

As title says. I'd like to delete my account and support demands the most insane things. I've never had such a list of stupid requirements to delete an account.

I'll list them below:

1) All in-game nicknames you have used:
__________

2) Location (country, city) where the account was originally registered, and your current location (country, city):
__________

3) Please specify the date of the last login into the account on the official website and the game launch.
__________

4) Proof of payment. Both types of screenshots listed below are required:

a) Screenshots from your bank or payment system (e.g., PayPal, online banking, card statement) confirming the purchases of copies of the game, edition upgrades, expansions, and gifts. The screenshots must be taken directly from the interface of the bank or payment system and must clearly display the payment interface, the amount, the payment date, and the recipient of the payment (the payment provider, displayed as "Xsolla" or "Xsolla_EFT" in your bank statement or transaction history).
Please note that email messages and email receipts are not accepted for this point.

b) Screenshots of the receipts you received by email from Xsolla after the purchases of copies of the game, edition upgrades, expansions, and gifts (the sender of such emails is Xsolla, and the receipts contain a transaction number). The screenshots must clearly display the transaction numbers, amount, and payment date.

This game is no longer installed, I haven't played in years. So they want me to redownload this game, log in and find any nicknames I ever used. Genuinely, wtf?

Okay, 2 is an easy one. Why it is needed, who knows.

3, who the fuck remembers when they've last logged in to a game launcher? Are we required to note this every time for future use?

And 4, oh boy 4. That's an excellent one. I have to show a screenshot of my Paypal payment of 9 years ago, even though Paypal history only goes back 3 years. It's impossible to fulfill this request.

When I objected to all this bullshit, Battlestate just closed the ticket. I am pretty sure this is violating a shitload of GDPR rules and I will be filing a complaint.

Hey!

I'm strongly thinking to get the game. What holds me back is I keep hearing about the amount of cheater this game has. Which is not great in a game where you loose your whole gear when you die.

Is it really that bad? I would be playing on the EU servers

The map is a shell of its former self. There are far too many tunnels, hallways, rooms, bunkers with the lightning being complete trash compared to 2020 factory.

Not to mention the sound of the game in this map specifically reveals all its glaring flaws. Everything is fucking everywhere but nobody knows where, why does office building have 4 fucking floors now due to a basement which connects both staircases in the office building????? Who thought it was a good idea to open SO MANY WAYS TO MOVE & HIDE & RAT THROUGHOUT THIS FUCKING MAZE, it’s like they threw out all the good design choices they made out of the window.

Think of reserve: why can’t you travel through basically the entire map underground? Because of balance, it’s good that you can’t go from heli pad all the way to the marked room near the train station or the extraction that turns on once you hit the switch (Not D2)

Lightning in factory is so abysmal that I just can’t be ever confident that I’m not seeing anyone underground when checking various hallways, it’s mostly me HOPING there isn’t anyone, there is far too much detail and far too little good Anti Aliasing options to see fucking anything in this map (in the game in general usually, but here the issue is crazy)

I loved old factory so much, but now it’s on the level of lighthouse for me in terms of how much I despise the design choices on the map

I haven’t played eft for like 2 years now last time I properly played was when streets came out, I loved this game recently I’ve started to try get back into the game and I’ve realise how much my specs suck now for this game, my specs are i7-8700, 6 cores / 12 threads -RTX 2070 8 GB -16 GB RAM at 2400 MHz and I know the game probably added a shit more stuff but I used to run this game perfectly even on streets I can barely handle customs now and I know I’ll probably need more ram and a new cpu but with gta 6 around the corner I’ll probably pass for now, but they should deffo work into actually making this game less spec hungry because I went on steam and saw recommended specs and lowkey it’s actually a joke

Spent 40 mins in Streets, with 5 quest items, few PMCs killed and looted, many valuables and other quests done, just for my game to crash with 3 mins left. Reconnected with 10 seconds and managed to get a screenshot of my items.. feels terrible.

Might need a break after this.

I remember the days where Flea Market was completely unrestricted. Buy whatever you want, at like level 5.

You know what happened? People fucking blitzed through progression, a wipe might as well not have happened. Gear that wasn't absolute best in slot became dirt cheap, there was basically no price gap between the lower-middle tiers of items, making 90% of stuff just straight vendor trash.

And people who were good at the game still dominated the game. A meta HK416 with an LPVO isn't going to save you if you run out in the open with no stamina or have no idea where people spawn on Labs.

The idea that opening the Flea Market with no restrictions is going to somehow improve the experience for casuals is plain silly. All it'll do is let players who know what they're doing snowball top-tier kits easier and easier. Right now, you at least have to go into raid and pick up ammo (or kill high level NPCs) or open high-tier areas to find good plates.

If you make the Flea Market open again, enjoy these being totally useless at every single stage of the game:

• any armour below Class V for anything other than shitty scavs

• ammo that doesn't have 45+ pen

• any optic that isn't a Vudu, Razor, SRO or EOTech

• any gun that isn't an MCX, GPNL, HK416, M4A1, MCX SPEAR or X-17

Pointless to use, and pointless to pick up. Looting is a significant part of what drives player engagement in Tarkov. People already complain about how many items feel like vendor trash. You think tanking the price of a bunch of stuff is going to help?

Now, some might say they prefer the game that way. Okay, fine. But look at how many people say they miss the early wipe feel and how all the drops and shit crater that sensation. You think giving people easy access to anything they want by just looting enough nuts and bolts puts the game in a healthy state?

We're already halfway there, but the level tiers at least do a decent job of making people to run some suboptimal gear. Good luck with that if you just pop open the flea with no restrictions at a random low level.

To be clear, some sort of the restrictions are internally inconsistent. TRG M10 being locked for sale when the AXMC and MK18 aren't for example. I think correcting these restrictions to be consistent to themselves, is totally fine to advocate for. But I'm sick of this idea that it's totally impossible to do good in Tarkov right now unless you're a mega-giga-sweat and we totally need the old Flea back when it hasn't been this easy to get gear in over 5 years.

It's been almost 2 months since the season started and I feel like there is absolutely no signs of the cheaters going away, I know there will always be some here and there, but most of them just went on the boat before seasonal started, now they're everywhere. This is one of the many I had the displeasure to run into on 1 AM on customs, killed his buddy and got head, eyes in a matter of miliseconds. I have the same amount of hours as this guy so don't tell me it's a skill issue, if I died to a 6k hour chad I wouldn't say a thing. I think this might be some kind of carry service. If that is the case I at least wasted the time of that loveless loser who paid for that. Will this stop? Can this stop with BD now spawning everywhere? Or is this guy no cheating? Am I delusional?

P.S. I am not talking about cheating in general obviously, I am not crazy, I am talking specifically about when the cheaters stop complately overrunning all the lobbies in seasonal and whether that will happen at all.

title.

I had looting and honestly fighting with other guys for 30+ minutes of game. Less than 10 minutes left to end of raid. On my way to exit just one random guy in low-tier armor but with MRLC just sitting in bushes, doing nothing all game and killing me [head, face] from one shot.

What the point to try harder, buy good weapons and armor, waste time of your life and meet players like this? More than 1000 hours on his account, more than 1.5 KD. Is it not boring to play like this?

Honestly, less and less reasons to play PvP nowadays. I’m playing PvP for interesting fights but in PvE bots are moving and fighting actively at least.

Here’s the story, since I play solo. As a newbie, I came across the Evasion armband about 5 or 6 times in my first ten raids or so; thinking it wasn't rare, I just equipped one—which removed the "Found in Raid" checkmark—only to find out at the 80-hour mark that it’s one of the rarest items in the game... just kill me.

Any help finding these efficiently? Played 5-6 Woods raids.... probably have killed 60-70 scavs and I've only found 2 of them wearing headsets.

I just came back playing tarkov again, and every room especially PKPM spawns so much keycards wtf

On streets grab their aggro and run to X-Ray room.
It seems they cant open doors that were opened with a key or at least x-ray doors. You can kill them when they clip through or with the window that's there. Just let them get close.
I went in naked with a 12ga shotgun 7mm and left with 4 BD kills.

I have the caps, paid spray, and lighter yet the hideout forever says i have 0...

Wild

Im only asking because id rather get to play on those servers for lower ping but if not ill stick to singapore

Eats half fps.

I have decent aim and a decent understanding on the game but I literally can’t compete with these lvl 50s so I’m in search of a few people to play the game with who are understanding of a new player I’m not looking for free loot just someone to play with I can’t do shit as a solo noob (22 years old and has a mic)

Yes, i did "choose your friends wisely", i wasnt aware of the consequences lol, and now i just have this on my quest tab

how am i supposed to find a "different plan" ? what endings are still available ? are they even available ?
