Escape from Tarkov

This videogame was just updated.

does this bag of shit still costs 100 bucks?

It has never costed more than like 30 and its got a -25% at the moment

>Instances
>Pretty much just a battle royale game with a persistent inventory
No. I was expecting.hoping for an actual mmo. I've never lost interest in a game so fast before.

Pleb

I got it for 35 2 weeks ago, where the fuck did you see a 100 bucks price tag?

>Increased size of stash (10x33)

is this shit permanent? Or can you increase the size by playing

complete noob here, sort of interested in getting it after watchign various vids. Their pricing seems realy jewy tho, which is a turn-off

...

I'm sorry that I'm upset that instead of getting multiplayer stalker, we're getting PUBG with a shitty gimmick that makes the game worse.

When they eventually add hideouts, you will be able to increase stash space, until then, yes that's it. Just means you cant' hold onto tons of stuff, and just liquidate and buy from traders as you get stuff.

Full version of the game will include a hideout which you can upgrade.

The game is nothing like PUBG.

someone give beta code pls

...

I assume they are gonna keep wiping multiple times before release?

Yeah, the persistent inventory system that encourages people to spawn with hatchets so they have 0 risk and high possible reward makes it totally different

POST BETA CODES PLS

...

good game ruined by shit gamedesign

have they removed the RPG elements and the insurance system from their pos?

No, they added more skills and the insurance system is the same as before, somewhat useful if you die to stupid bullshit in a bush somewhere.

Just buy it?

G U N P O R N

It's nothing like PUBG. PUBG actually has a goal for victory. Tarkov has no goal at all. The way to win in Tarkov is to never deploy into a mission. The exits are always completely static. You can spawn in and make a mad dash sprint straight for the exit and leave since sometimes you spawn pretty close to them. There's no reward for looting or killing people if there's no victory conditions. It's just a sandbox where you lose everything when you die. PUBG is actually a video game.

>there's no reward for looting
besides the loot?

Spawns and exits are now slightly more dynamic with the newest patch.

>The exits are always completely static
Critics BTFO

What's the point of loot? It doesn't win you anything since this is a game where you can't win anything.

If i buy it can i play it now?
Or do I have to buy the USD150 version?

NSFW WEAPON CONTENT

These items you get for pre-ordering/buying into the beta, can they be lost? Are you basically just paying extra for a larger stash?

It wins you better loot

Everything can be lost. The only exception is the secured container and tomahawk if you put them in their proper slot. The things you do keep forever is your stash and reputation boost as long as you don't fuck up your reputation.

Yes. You can and you will lose the items you paid 100$ for. And the guy who paid 30$ will take your items and shove them up your ass the next time you spawn. You are only paying for the stash, the trader rep and the bigger container. The container will not be available to people who didn't buy the big boy edition, but they will be able to upgrade their own container to a slightly smaller size.

yes
no

Do you have donkeybrains? Or a certificate that states otherwise?

...

>Shitty Russian indie Unity game
Ok.

...

...

Thermal sights in pvp is hopeless. Bad move.

when will they fucking stop with fucking wipes, im fucking tired of tryharding for shitty gear and then they wipe all hard fucking work

...

Minecraft has better progression and goals than Tarkov and that's pretty sad. I'd like this game to succeed since it has a neat concept but looting just to loot and then losing it all in a single fuck up doesn't seem fun if that's the only thing the game has going for it. I feel like the game has all the mechanics down but has yet to make a video game out of it. I've played it and even own the EoD pack and did have some fun with it but there needs to be more to it. As long as it stays the way it is it's always going to feel like a technology showcase, a tech demo and nothing more. The current design doesn't feel like it has any meat to it, it's just barebones mechanics with no sense of progression or goals. I don't want any hand holding and quest markers and shit, but the current game mode just doesn't feel right to me. Spawning in simply to loot and leave doesn't seem like a good end game. They need to add new game modes or more objectives within the world rather than just find an exit. I do like that they finally randomized the exits a bit. That will give it a lot more life and make each round feel a bit different but it still leaves a lot to be desired for me.

I have the standard edition of this game, but I was thinking about upgrading to one of the higher tiers. Maybe even the highest.

Stupid idea? What is the consensus?

This game is very sound mechanically, but I can't handle the persistent inventory plus the quick deaths. Getting one-shotted by bots from somewhere you couldn't see and losing everything is too much.
Feel free to call me a casul.

>grind 40h for spec op helm
>buy nice mods for it
>deploy wood
>get shot out of nowhere while desync
>grind 40h for new head
>grind another 50h for armor

sounds like a nice game

It's a dumb idea. I own Edge of Darkness.

>The container will not be available to people who didn't buy the big boy edition

shouldnt be an issue since this game will be dead with no community

p2w trash

Lowest tier is good. It's more fun to get all the weapons from scratch than it is to be gifted them and losing them on your first excursion.

If you enjoy the game, and feel like you've got your monies worth, and think they'll not fuck it up, then yeah, upgrade. The extra stash space and gamma case are nice.

If you don't think they're going to give you an even decent game, don't spend another cent.

huh
Welp i have a dozen games that I got this sale plus a massive enough backlog
ima pass until summer at least.

Are the stash and rep upgrades worth it?

Also, is the user above telling falsehoods that whatever you get in the higher tier editions can be ganked by assholes, and it is permagone?

Why though? What do you need the inventory space for.

If you haven't got enough room sell shit or go out and lose it.

All the guns you use are lost when you die. You get guns. You lose them when you die.

Honestly - I'm not sure. I've only just started playing the game. But, it's a looter shooter in a way, so I assume that greater stash capacity can only be a good thing.

You will in fact lose anything you are holding except the secured container and melee weapon ONLY if they are in the secure container and melee weapon slot or else you can lose those too.

fuck off with your p2w slavshit

It can be a good thing but I sense this is the type of game where a majority of the community will lose more items than they gain.

What are the chances of the filthy Russian devs fucking this game up? It looks really fun but I don't want to donate cash to a bunch of commies who are going to cut and run.

>it is permagone?
yep
That's actually the premise of the game

>risk your shit to get random shit (the chance of actually getting a nice gun are 1 in 30)
>sell said shit to upgrade your current shit
>rinse and repeat until you lose everything by desync, getting ganked or just making a dumb decision.
>Repeat steps 1 and 2 ad infinitum

GOTY SLAVS ARE GODS OF GAMING!!1

thats funny i thought the premise of the game is paying to win

why is there a thread on Sup Forums about this? why are people on Sup Forums who paid for this?

You might get fed up of the game in a month, and the game is still in beta, all the shit you're hoarding will get wiped eventually.

I have a feeling that after a while enough good decked out weapons will be in circulation to the point where nearly any player you kill will reward you with good shit. People who own higher tier packages of the game are only putting more guns into circulation earlier on.

>I have a feeling that after a while enough good decked out weapons will be in circulation to the point where nearly any player you kill will reward you with good shit.

i have a feeling you don't understand how they intend to make money off this game

Can someone explain the game modes to me?

I get the PMC mode - I take my persistent character into the game world, kill people and steal their shit, then extract to keep it.

How does SCAV mode work, exactly? Do I keep stuff I find in there?

Enlighten me, I'm curious.

not by allowing good items to freely circulate user. you'd have to be a chump to believe that.

You spawn in as essentially one of the random NPC characters with random a random gear loadout. NPCs wont attack you is one benefit, the other benefit is not having to risk your own gear. Any gear you collect you will keep as long as you escape. I think it has a 30 minute to 1 hour cooldown on it.

Some cunt needs to make a decent fps mmo already.

So, if there's no risk, why would you ever play PMC mode and risk your stuff?

Yeah, you can keep everything you extract with including whatever equipment you spawned in with. Also the AI scavs will be neutral to you as long as you don't attack another scav. Other player scavs are sometimes co-operative and sometimes just twats.

It's like a safety net so you'll never run out of money and guns, though it has a cool down.

Scav mode lets you run around as one of the scavenger plebs in a game instance, you get given random equipment and dropped in some time after the pmcs have already spawned, if you get to extract you get to keep what loot you grab. There is a cool down on the scav so you can only take them out every so often.

Well, it's showing more progress than shit like DayZ and PUBG. There's tangible progress being made and the game is moving into open beta in a few weeks. There's still the risk but it's already shaping up to be a very well made shooter.

So basically what you're saying is if someone if carrying a good decked out weapon and they die, the devs will purposely make the weapon not visible to the killer to make sure they can't get it? Then they will instead sell weapons on some sort of cash shop instead?

What have you got the stuff for if you're never going to use it?

Scav mode has a 30 minute cooldown.

No, I'm saying you will be able to pay money to have a chance to not drop your items

Of course this feature won't come until later when a ton of people already own the game

If you can't see this coming you simply don't understand this industry

While scavs do start with decent gear it's by no means the best stuff. You play them to get gear if you're out of shit or want to simply fuck around with little risk. Like I said, there's a cooldown on it as well. If you want to play nothing but scav you have about an hour wait time per mission.

When is the creator of PUBG going to sue the makers of this game?

That's an oddly specific guarantee for something with no backing or evidence. Who the fuck is going to pay real money for simply a CHANCE to not lose your gear? They already have a similar system in the game called insurance where you keep your shit if it's not looted.

In about three minutes

>Get sub 60 FPS on Customs and Shoreline
>have a 1060, 16gb of RAM, and an i5-6500
>game is using 10-12gb of ram, and only 40-60% of GPU and CPU
I'm not all that great at understanding this stuff. Is there something I'm doing wrong? Settings are pic related

Other than the server issues and my framerate problems, I'm really liking the new patch. That resort area has insane loot

>no evidence

Yes it's called the magic of intelligence. People capable of pattern recognition can tell you what's going to happen in the future. It's absolutely magical. I actually do this all the time.

>Who the fuck is going to pay real money for simply a CHANCE to not lose your gear?
Oh, you poor, naive child you.

Can we please stick to making criticism of game features that exist outside of ill conceived paranoid fantasies?

Yes, I know you're oh so very cynical and clever, there's no need for you to reply and tell me about it.

0/10

>This one autist crying play to win
>When you can lose all the guns you get from the 100$ edition in three sorties

Skill > gear

If you have skill AND gear, you're pretty much an unstoppable killing machine,but you can skill get screwed over due to bad luck.

Wait and see kid

this game was obviously crafted with bad intentions from the very start and you have to be dense not to see it

Either stick with standard or get EOD to support devs. Middle tiers are pointless because the starting gear is whatever, and stash size will be upgradeable eventually anyway. EOD at least gives the season pass, but you'd be paying $105 for some post-wipe convenience stuff and a season pass, so it's only something you should buy if you want to feed BSG your monies.

Who is paying you to antishill a game you've never touched?

is it too much to ask for a single player mode where you just go exploring shit like STALKER?

Yeah. Wait for Russia 2028 next decade.

Is this game like stalker or just another pubg clone?

Basically played the predator last patch but without the lasers. Wiping 5 mans by yourself is the best.

Can you actually say something with some substance?

You're stupid.

I wish more people would spontaneously co-operate in game. It's way more fun than just mindlessly shooting someone who is clearly carrying nothing of worth.

i always play fleetfoot scav because I don't know where all the exits are and dont want to be walking around for an hour aimlessly waiting to get shot

As someone who's put hundreds of hours into all three games, it's neither of those. It's more like a smaller scale DayZ with armed AI instead of zombies, no boring disease shit and actually fun to play and easy to get gear in.

Yes, I stand by my assertion and I believe you will see it become reality. And then you'll be like "son of a bitch, some people on Sup Forums actually know this industry exceedingly well and can make good calls" and by "some people" you will mean "That one guy" who was me.

It gets tiring in life almost always being right about everything. People want "proof". The proof is that my brain is a supercomputer apparently, and yours is not.

Shills are out in force again i can see. avoid this shitty russian unity game

Give me one (1) reason why Unity would be a bad thing
