It had so much potential. But I decided to be another fuckin multiplayer survival shooter

They abandoned their other two games for this, it didn't need to be a le survival xDDD game.
I liked the other games it felt more casual and the weapon variety was nice but this shit is just gonna be a massive failure.

The next "Le multiplayer survival with crafting elements". I mean, it could be like Stalker, if they put some fucking passion into this shit. Gave a decent story, maybe a single player game so we didn't have to deal with 12 year olds and fucking Russians telling us how many times they fucked our mother.

Waiting for fucking beta, which was promised this month. Ive never had such a long wait between buying a game (november) and actually getting to play it. Jesus christ hurry up you fuckin slavs.

Literally Playerunknown's Battlegrounds with Russians.

But there are loads of Russians in PUBG?

heard the russian devs are as shit as warthunders

Tarkov has even more Russians.

>waah why they don't make stalker!
studio behind tarkov is known for shitty f2p shooter (contract wars)
now they make carbon copy of it, with slightly better graphics and good marketing

>holy chromatic abbreviation, Batman!
but really, game is gonna be f2p/p2w

could have been multiplayer stalker
instead it's just another survival shooter.
it will fizzle out and nobody will care.
shame too because it had some cool gun customization.

Awesome game but you spend more time doing inventory management than playing the fucking game

and you thought CS:GO had horrible hitboxes.
youtube.com/watch?v=H6nO7lIPYRk&feature=youtu.be

the hitboxes do work though. the player died in one hit

that looks more like a terrible case of desync than bad hitboxes, it's a twin barrel but how many shots did he take out of it?

it's pump action bruh
nice

This. All they had to do was make a STALKER clone and feed off the popularity of the series that no one else is tapping into. But nah, better make another shitty MP shooter.

Im an alpha player right now and it has its ups, the desync is fucking insane right now and you end up not being able to do anything for the majority of the raids.

NPCs are literally aimbots right now so if you dont have armor they one shot you every time.

Edge of Darkness-tier backer? I bought in because the promise of free expansions worked out the last time I did it in ARMA3

Quesion, I had my eyes on this for months and one of the problems I've noticed is that the atmosphere is always shit.
>Sunny days
I don't have a problem with sunny days in video games but it looks like shit. Do you enjoy that or does it feel odd

Theres some eye candy for sure.
The rest is CoD tier

>CoD-tier
>one hit one kill/leaning>slow paced ARMA-esque scenarios

Pick one faggot

nice try faggot but your game you paid 130 dollerydoos for is shit and will always be shit because it's built upon a shit gameplay cycle.

yea I got EOD, hopefully it will be worth it in the long run..

It's not always sunny, the time system is 5x so sometimes you can come into a raid at night, dusk, and dawn. Not to mention it can be rainy, windy, or a thunder/lightning storm. I agree that the sunny days suck, but its a lot harder to hear people when its raining and hearing is definitely required to survive.

>have to deal with 12 year olds
Fucking sick of that shit, thats why I dont play multiplayer games anymore, fucking kids screaming into mics that are literally all the way inside their mouths resting against their uvulas saying FAGIT every other word...

>It's not always sunny

>playing arma 3
>combat patrol
>heading to exfil
>dropping niggas left and right as the retards around me magdump at AI across a mountain

>stop reviving to take them out
>NOOB FAKIN NOOB REVAI ME PLEEES
>shoot 12 yr old
>team/spawn kill him for the rest of the game
it's the only way to deal with them.

Alpha player here, EOD edition. I can offer my opinions if you care.
I'm a sport shooter, and a vidya tactical shooter junkie; SWAT 3/4, ARMA 1/2/3, Rainbow 6 1/2/3, old school Ghost Recon, Project Reality, Squad etc. Also a big STALKER fan.

I really like Tarkov but it's got major issues:

Firstly this game is not worth the current price tag. Especially the higher tiers which get you into the alpha immediately. I was gifted the EOD edition by a group of friends who I play together with. They got impatient and all splurged on it, and its become one of our big things.

its not worth $30? what about after all the planned maps and shit are done?

I really like the authenticity, the gear and weapon customization is gun nerd level autism.

The sound design is also spectacular. Really immersive firefights. Its the closest thing I've experienced in a video game to the actual sound experience of kicking in a fucking door and mag dumping rifles in a confined room. Its pulse quickening. Its tense. Dying in this game is almost a jump scare and I fucking love it.

tell about game more i dont care about you

The biggest problems right now are lack of content, AI difficulty issues, and game/weapon/equipment balance. But more concerning than this is there is still no real clear picture yet of "what this game actually is" or "what it will be".

Is it an MMO shooter? a survival game? a raid shooter? Right now all you do is go into levels, kill or be killed and steal/hoard/loot gear which you then gamble by taking into the next mission.

I have this uncomfortable feeling the devs don't yet know what they want this game to be.

Levels is an issue, right now there's 3 and only 1 is really popular.

>Right now all you do is go into levels, kill or be killed and steal/hoard/loot gear which you then gamble by taking into the next mission.

Maybe that's all it ultimately end up being is sort of this weird gambling shooter where you're betting on the equipment you carry.

Sure I'll keep writing if you care. Just trying to explain than I'm a military-autist.

Another issue imo is this game only really shines when you're in a group of 3 or more players. Its not unplayable solo, but having some friends on discord really makes it much more enjoyable. You can coordinate your sweeps through the level. You can cover eachother and defend areas while 1 of your friends loots bodies. You can lure and flank players and overall its much more exciting.

This is why I'm still playing. That stuff is fun. But there's way too many solo players who just spawn into levels, grab 1 thing and sprint for the exit. When you do encounter groups of coordinated human players though its great.

Yea I see it sort of becoming this, and like; did any of you play Dragon's Crown? Playing multiple levels in a row without rest in that game gave you increased difficulty and loot drops, of course risks also increased.

I sort of see it going in that direction.

Its almost like a rogue-like.
Which in theory sounds great: a stalker inspired rogue-like with infinite exploration/looting possibilities? I can only get so erect.

But right now its just loot gambling.

>Will this game eventually be worth $30?

Are you a gun nerd? Do you have a framed picture of Travis Haley in your gun safe? Do you have friends like you?

If yes, then yes.

If no, then this might only ever be a frustrating "survival shooter", focused on "muh-realism" and other "memes".

>Playing multiple levels in a row without rest in that game gave you increased difficulty and loot drops, of course risks also increased.

Unless it's an open world survival game where I can go into safe areas/ towns to sell off artifiacts i've found in the Zone then I don't give a shit

I forgot about that piece of shit. Thanks.

It's why I decided to go get it, huge gun nerd, I love how there's no UI when you're just running around or aiming and I like to see how realistic EFT is compared to say like ARMA with mods, ect.

pretty shit desu, great graphics along with optimization but there is nothing to do except looting and after few runs your stash is full. They recently upgraded ai so they take cover and are super aggressive and also have aimbot so they can kill you easily.

At this point i doubt we will ever see open world since they are so fucking slow with releasing new maps.

you cant be more wrong

who /gamble/ here?

Don't you lose all the shit you equipped if you die?
>make a fancy ass gun
>equip armor
>spawn in
>make ten steps
>die to a fucker with a sniper rifle
>all is lost

sup

Any new guns added/teased recently.

So if i'm to understand the consensus so far, this game has great potential but will end up being shit because it's a multiplayer shooter like The Division or Day-Z or some shit?

MP5, MP5 SD

They're beautiful but kind of useless.
Anyone in heavy armor is practically immune.

It will be shit because there will be nothing to do, and or no point in doing it.

The game literally has no idea what genre it is. Its trying to invent something while stumbling through alpha testing. Its trying to invent itself as some kind of tactical shooter equivalent of dark souls. Its got good ideas, but they're all just fragments, there isn't a "whole" yet.

If I could describe it in its current state:

>Imagine Dark Souls 'Alpha' - Edge of Darkness Limited Edition
>Firelink shrine and undead cathedral only
>No leveling up, souls get spent on gear
>PVP invasions
>Some vendors
>No boss fights
>No overall story, quest or any long term goal

>buy a game that is in alpha stage of development, meaning absolutely not even close to being finished
>get a mechanically functioning game that feels fairly polished but that lacks assets and meat and potatoes of the content world, because suprise suprise, its not fucking finished
>act like you got screwed over

I think you niggers are crying a bit too much. Its alpha. Not beta, alpha.
Compare it to other early access fiascos that are truly shit like DayZ for reference. Give this another year then we will see.

Yo is strike back worth a watch

your points would be valid except they want to rename alpha to beta and launch it on steam soon and then release it fully in Q4 of 2017 which is total bullshit.

They want to rush it as fast as possible, there is no way that open world will be there in 4-5 months, since they couldn't even release single map in half a year, no way they will finish 5 maps + add open world in even less time.

At this point game is nothing more than cashgrab, it's typical for russian devs, i'm glad i got my $100 copy for free so i'm not losing anything ;*

Very, very much so. First season with Richard Armitage is kinda slow, but when the show gets two new leads its badass. You would be hard pressed to find a more /k/ show.

Don't forget added Tax if you're from a Europe country. EOD actually being close to a 200 bux.

...

Alright i'm convinced

>Is strike back worth a watch?

Absolutely not.

Its a garbage soap opera with occasional operating. Just watch the firefights on youtube; there are compilations for every season.

>posts a meme webm from a 3 hours long >muh feminism movie with a single action scene

Sicario is a soap opera, Strike Back is tits and operating.

>I have this uncomfortable feeling the devs don't yet know what they want this game to be.
It's in alpha, no?

Of course it wouldn't be clear at this stage.

How in the fuck did you not understand Sicario?

>Shit is also shit and other meme arguments

At least Sicario only took 2 hours of my life.
Also the soundtrack was dope.

So is there going to be a single giant level in the end, or did they drop that? Gonna be a big drawback for the game if all the levels are tiny and cramped.

>horrible criminal gets recruited into CIA to go and eliminate an equally horrible criminal
>delta plays babysitter and a disillusioned female tags along because >muh laws

Movie doesn't really do anything at all, there is no plot, nothing ever fucking happens.

I really liked Sicario.

souns like Sup Forums:^)

>Nothing happens

Nah we get a really tense slow burn look into the DOD/spook shit LEO aren't supposed to see, and in the end we question the integrity of the whole system.

It wasn't a perfect movie, but it was better than 'NCIS-with-CZ858'

Not problem if your mother not big whore sucking every Ivan on street.

It's a character study and a commentary on the drug war. The plot was in how the characters reacted to their situation and how they chose to live their lives.

Well good news user.
There is absolutely no ingame communication, text or chat!

MUH ALPHA

This.
The movie wasn't about Emily Blunt.
It wasn't about feminism.

>She wasn't even the main character
>She literally gives up and accepts that the system is completely fucked

The movie was about realizing how insignificant she was and how she couldn't change a goddamn thing.

Is there servers available for Australians?

>join shit group*

fix'd.

You need to see a pretentious bullshit two hour long movie to realize that you are insignificant in the bigger picture?

Literally 2deep4u pretentious bullshit """"kino"""" Sup Forums memery, overhyped by the minds that created some of the worst content in the history of this board.

>BANE

>It wasn't about feminism.
I can't believe there are people who actually think it is. You have to be a dense motherfucker or trying to push an agenda. She's a witness to Benico Del Toro's story: her job is to be just as confused and unsure of things as the viewer.

I thought Sicario was fantastic, but I guess that's expecting too much from anons these days.

>not having friends

>frog poster
>bitching about dirt memes

Dude I'm agreeing with you.
Deltoro is the main subject.
I forget what's it called in story telling when the main character isn't the main character, there's some term for it.

I just think the feminism criticism is overhyped by frogposters like >her job is to be just as confused and unsure of things as the viewer
This.

Fuck you all Imma rewatch Sicario tomorrow. I love it.

>I forget what's it called in story telling when the main character isn't the main character, there's some term for it.

It's called pretentious. It's also called lazy writing. And it's not deep or clever at all.

Strike back shoe-horns in women 'operators'.
Don't pretend.

In Strike Back all "stronk women" end up with a bullet up their forehead. Literally all.

...

We get it, you're a fucking retard. You don't have to keep telling us.

>ARMA-esque

Probably the worst thing you could say, considering ARMA's infantry combat is absolutely fucking terrible.

Nigga that's a tall fucking claim, I doubt they're really as bad as Gaijin

Hey man it's you who feels the urge to get validation from strangers on the internet over your shit taste in movies here, not me. Off you go

>muh feminism

I get its a little silly to have a petit woman be an elite SWAT team but beyond that she isn't shown to be some "badass chick" who kicks ass and saves the day, she gets fucked up continually and essentially gives up in the end.

I stayed up until 5AM playing Tarkov with my friends.

Now I'm going to go watch Sicario.

I'm tired of multiplayer focused games. I wish they'd get back to working on Russia 2028 instead.

Game is bad, boring, and repetitive.

The graphics feel kinda weird. It might be the effects or saturation.

Did I say the game was bad, boring, and repetitive?

Also, the devs are known for shitty f2p games. But this time, they hired a good marketing team for their shitty game, so they can get people hyped with survival videos and gun modifications.

It really feels like they spent most of their time focusing on the big gun modifications, and the survival aspect... just to be able to make good presentation videos to lure people to pre-order. The rest of the content feels like it was done in a couple of days.

Bottom line, skip that crap. Stay away from it.

P.S: You know a company is shady as fuck when they use gimmicky marketing tactics to sell you their game. They get you hyped with their videos, and then "Pay 50 bucks to MAYBE get access to the alpha somewhere between in 10 months and two years" also, they put an NDA in their shitty game in the beginning. I've never seen a studio put an NDA for their game, ever.

Really makes you think...

I already played Survarium

I'm not falling for that shit again
any time anyone claims to be from the former STALKER team, they are either full of shit or have sold their souls to the cash shop monster

>UN military in Russia
LMAO

>I've never seen a studio put an NDA for their game, ever.

Damn near every closed beta I've ever taken part in has had an NDA of some kind attached to it, have you been living under a rock or something?

>they put an NDA in their shitty game in the beginning. I've never seen a studio put an NDA for their game, ever.
That with the rest of the users saying different ITT makes me doubt your post.

are there many australians playing this game, if i by it (when it's more stable) will i be able to play with other australians?
