Escape from Tarkov

bought it in August in 2017 and have had more fun than ever on it, but it's got serious fucking issues most of the time. I wouldn't recommend it at this point (it's objectively, undeniably in Alpha and being sold as a Beta for profit), but have to admit it's unlike anything else I've ever played when it does work.

Currently:

Using a scope, in this FPS, causes massive frame drops. Even for good CPU and 1080ti users. No joke.

One map is literally getting 25fps for many people, again, with great PCs. The others have serious frame drop issues.

The grass doesn't render in after like 20 feet. The devs and fanboys say this is an engine problem, like the scope issue. That said, the consumer shouldn't give a shit. Bottom line, they have an FPS where scopes drop the 30+ frames and lag, AND grass doesn't load after 20 feet when 3/4 of the maps are outside.

There's no AA. It's a beta where no even AA exist… C'mon.

Spawning has been tweeked for ahwile and there's still blatant spawn kills they're trying to fix.

8Gb RAM users will probably have freezes that make one or two of the most literally unplayable.

It anyone has any questions let me know, I have hundreds of hours in this game and will you give you my honest, non fanboying response. Yes, when it works it's unlike any game on the market. But boy, there are issues the fanboys seem okay to ignore and the devs being quiet on. I could care less about them banning people with cheat engine on, for what it's worth. I know CE doesn't mean people are cheating in online games and they should be more specific about that.

Quit typing like a redditor and fuck off with your unity trash.

I like to make short sentences. Lots of them. In a row.

Then I double space. And start again. seriously.

Also I end sentences with ellipses. At random… I need to go back to reddit.

how do you do fellow markete- i mean consumer!

can you spergs not screech about shilling when it's clearly not shilling so we can talk about vidya on the vidya board. crying wolf is the worst shit.

What is this game beyond the gun porn? Is there PvE?

See

What's with all the recent OPs with meme spacing?

Recent influx from 4chan and actual redditors, what else?

Game should be killed. The gameplay systems should be ripped from it and used to make STALKER 2

The game is currently mediocre at best but I just wanted to post some shitty OC

...

On boy another DayZ clone
Everyone in Eastern Europe is an "ex-STALKER" at this point. Pic related another game by an ex-STALKER dev.

So how much shekels did you spend on this premium game?

lol

Now THIS is an important question. OP, fucking answer this man.

Someone who actually played the game here. It could be fun RIGHT NOW outside of the poor performance and constant crashes when loading in and spawning multiple people who are hostile at the same spawn point if they fixed insurance and teams.

Insurance is supposed to be your way of increasing the chance you return with an item. Instead, it's used to insure your items, throw them in a bush after you kill someone, and take all of their loot. Nobody will find your items in the bush and you will get them back. It negates the whole point of having a carrying capacity. Killed a guy wearing fort armor? No problem, just toss your own fort armor in a bush and take his. Now you have two fort armors.

Teams are cancer because a map can have 8 players on it and 5 of them can be in a team. I'm sick of gunning down 2 shitty potatoes just to die to the third. If you load into a map and you never hear gunfights, there is just one massive fucking team wandering around and you have no business being there, so it's time to leave. There are no solo players for you to hunt. Shooting at scavs will just summon the team.

I don't have to mention fixing the hatchling issue. For anyone who doesn't know what it is, people are loading into maps with nothing but hatchets (which do not drop when you die) and run around and stuff their containers (bags that don't drop your items if you die). Yeah, you load into a map with a team and three hatchlings, and there is just nothing to do. Hatchlings will go away if they fix this team shit, probably by putting teams in maps with increased player counts with multiple teams, and by fixing this insurance fraud shit by removing the insured status from any item you leave behind if you successfully extract. Hatchlings only exist because people don't have guns to bring to the game since all they do is load in, kill two people, die to the third and fourth since it was a four man team, and then have his equipment picked over by people who hide their shit in bushes so they're guaranteed to keep their stuff by paying only a small trickle of rubles.

The game is vaguely fun yet supremely unfair if you have friends to play with, since me and my friend just shit all over people who were just looking to have a good gunfight. Too bad you can't find people like that when playing solo. Never find teams when playing with a team. It's not worth playing if you play alone unless you like dealing with scav-tier equipment or playing scavs. Also, people sperg about all the shit they give you for buying a package as being pay to win, but these kikes just equip it and run out and lose it all in 10 minutes anyway, nor is it even the good shit (sans fort armor). The real pay to win is the gamma container, because you can just come across an M4, pop the stock off, and guarantee it as loot.

The only PvE is killing scavs. They're just AI bandits with random shit loot with the occasional treasure. You cannot play PvE without being in a PvP zone, because the game only has one mode. There is the offline mode where you can explore maps and kill scavs, but it's for practice - you don't get any loot, expend any items, or gain any experience. It's definitely not a PvE game.

And this is supposed to be the "good" Unity game.

Is this true fams? Why are tarkov fanbois so buttblasted in the comment section? Either way, that price is fucking sky high for a unity game.

How can you claim you're not a shill when you're on here talking about a buggy, broken shitheap that the creators charged people $200 just to get *guaranteed* access to the alpha, while every package below $200 was "the more you pay the more likely you are to get in." The creators have also shilled their game firsthand.

wow, that's surely gonna work well

Try to escape from these fucking dubs, shill.


This actually looks like it would be fun to fuck around in with Holla Forums, provided no one actually pays for this.

checked

Because this game is just a Reddit meme.

Reminder that you get a whole week ban and 1 year of (((moderation))) for telling gay LARPers to kill themselves
80% of my posts never get approved because unless you are literally dick-sucking the game, the moderators will abuse their power and simply not approve anything you ever say.

It's a pity all the /k/ porn is wasted on a garbage MMO that will be dead by the end of the year because of PUBG.

Wow your autism level reached peak point

nah, I don't think it's possible to even justify the existence of these games.

Its part of another goon psyop. Everything is reddit or shilling. Go look at the catalogue and almost every threads first reply is a sage trying to shut down discussion or start a dubs derail. Its the only two card they play on repeat.

Well, that's shit. Then again, I kinda knew it would be shit by the "online" tag in their description. Always a gigantic negative. Well, of I go hoping for a new shooter then. It's all I can do at this point until I learn to code myself (slowly but surely, guys. One line at a time).

Ignore shills and ignore shill shamers. Only people who try o fit in would yell at shill posts, everyone else just uses the hide function and is done with it. I for once love this game. For me it is the perfect mix of realism and gameplay for the gunplay damage and so on. I really hope they dont fuck this up with the karma system they plan to implement. For me its gonna suck either way, i wanna play with my friends not some scrubs i meet on the way who are just give away my position because they're dumb scrubs. And b the griefers who dont care about the negative karma and stuff it does and just shoot me at the back of my head and theres nothing i can do about it except shoot everyone on sight and get the bullshit karma penalties. Also everyone saying this is pay for win, didnt play the game. The stuff you get for the most expensive version is literally 1 day of playing. Exept the container you get and equal one after some quests tough who arent really hard even if youre only average.

goddammit, I remember the announcement for the game and all the gunporn they crammed in. And of course the premise was really neat.

Shit, I think this was just survarium all over again.

Mack is the best and most honest video game reviewer, bar none, and is not a shill at all. Prove me wrong.

this "review" is just embarrassing

The video in this thread is all the prove you need. Of all the things he could took as pay to win he took the mbss backpack, that costs 2k rubel or something. He clearly did not play the game. I dont know why he even has biased hatred against that game without playing it. The mbss thing even became a meme in the eft community since its so ridiculus. Just jewtube some videos that disproof him on this video there are plenty. You get a headstart when buying the expensive version yes, but thats it. If youre a scrub your headstart is lost in the first 2 hours of the game, gone and you wont get it back. If you get a good raid you can literally get all the better version stuff in a single hour except the bitter inventory gamma box wich takes some time but isnt really worth a better version. The more expensive versions are more a form of kickstarter to support the developers.

Are you drunk or tired, user? Regardless, you make some valid points. The KoS stuff kind of removes the point of even having seperate factions, but when they don't have hard barring mechanics it's just the default because when one person does it everyone around him will too.


Oh, you're not drunk, you're just eastern European. Tell me, slavanon, why even play this game when there are equally sociopathic and relatively unrewarding games similar in scope and function with even faster action and load times and arguably more enjoyable gameplay?

Not slav, german. Is it the way i form sentences that gives it away? When i actually talk with native english speakers they're often astonished how good i speak in relation to other germans, but on the internet everyone seems to figure it out after the first word i wrote.

Whatever i play the game because its plain fun. I just have fun playing the game and i love the kick you get that you risk everything you take with you when you die. The thing i always missed in Dayz was a stash then epoch came but i dont have the time to guard my base 24/7 from kids who raid me offline while im at work. So i love the stash system in eft too. Also no 3rd person. What pissed the off on dayz the most is that 90% of the servers had the most casual settings you could do. The gunporn in eft makes me plain erect, i sometimes just mod stuff in my stash and look at weapons in this game. The gameplay is, like i already said a perfect mix of realism and fun. Its very realistic, but not to the point where it becomes tideous. If i had to explain why i ike it so much i would just say, because its fun. I like it and i do not get tired of it even tough i play it all the time.

All Germans should be banned from playing anything that isn't a forklift simulator. You gave humanity Gothic 1 and 2, it's time to proudly go into the eternal hunting grounds and join your ancestors.

Well, he's not wrong, especially coming from a jedi academy fan. Tell me where he was wrong?

So, it's still pay2win. Of course there's no such thing as automatically winning when you pay, but buying gameplay advantages is the definition of p2w no matter what.

I really just do not understand why devs choose to torpedo their early access trash like this. I guess they planned on having more players per map at launch, but why not decrease the team size so people who paid 80,000 rubles to play your crap can have fun? 3 max team size would probably be all right and it'd guarantee a firefight with two other wildcards to shake things up.

While that is true, real pay2win for me is when you can loose over and over again and just buy back the shit you've lost with real money. the headstart is just not worth any money. Buying the stuff you get for that amount of money would just be plain stupid. And after a week everyone is on the same point anyway. If you want to look at it convulsive negativ, then yes its pay2win. But when you actually play the game you could see that this is bullshit. Also if they ever would implement real p2w aka you can buy guns for real life money the community would lynch them.

Stop shilling these games cham and fuck off from 8ch for once

Yeah, because their slavshit engine they were using before was just perfect, right? Oh wait, there's a game breaking bug that can keep you from finishing the game and you have to get a mod to fix it. At Least EFT runs

...

Probably the best shooter in recent years, shits on Arma and Squad for sure, but like you said it currently has a lot of problems, mainly performance and netcode related. Still the devs work on it constantly so I'm happy to have bought into it. Also I play on 6GB, not ideal (but actually runs surprisingly well, for being on 6GB).

I hope they add pic related soon, would be great to blast fucking fortniggers. Also don't bother replying to retards shitposting, those people won't be happy until you can only play Doom and pretend it definitely has not gotten old over the years.

Runs like shit and the FOV is basically garbage, I couldn't tell what the fuck was going on when I was playing but maybe that's just me.

I have never witnessed a cancer as pure and lispy as this slack-jawed presumably manlet-tier faggot in embed related.

yeah that shit is pretty bad

Then you're wrong and don't know what the fuck pay2win means, dumbass.

Yes, goy, totally.

His Wolfenstein 2 review, on the other hand, was sketchy as fuck. He tore Wolfenstein 1 apart, and then on the W2 review he's suddenly trying to sugar coat all the things wrong with the game, despite him brutally attacking these SAME THINGS in the W1 review.

Oh my fucking god.

This is why memes and buzzwords should be monitored and when necessary banned, because if you don't then you get fucking garbage like this.

...

He only praised New Colossus for having more weapons and replay value. It's only barely better for him.

>>>/hugbox/

Also, it had no mission marker.

It has a lot of things arma and squad don't have but just like OP said its filled with problems. Granted the game has gotten much better in recent months and the new map got an expansion with the health clinic which surprises me since I thought they wouldn't ever make anything after the 2 map yet here we are with 4. I still think it would be better for anons to hold onto their money and wait until they fix the major issues and finish at least 60% of the game before buying. It still surprises me how squad and this game got such huge updates and there is that new insurgency game coming out so its almost like realistic military simulators are back in style, that wouldn't happen to do with the massive success of a game based of a military simulator could it? I really hope the devs of squad and Escape from Tarkov don't just cancel the project this far in due to not being as successful as that game but at the end of the day there will always be 100 to a 1000 redditors to every user and devs want to make money.

Ok thanks I was hoping for something like stalker so that's really too bad

there's week free trials out there sometimes, try it yourself.
