How well do you think it'll do?
>>719468483The game is already dead as is and it's like 300$ for all the pay to win bullshit you need to even play it fairly.
>>719468483Mixed-negative
>>719468782>>719468798what happen? I thought people loved this shit
>>719468798With 80k reviews
>>719468925Only because it has no competitionIt's really shitty if you factor in everything, the game is too sweaty, too many cheaters, too many campers, it's blatantly p2w, the servers aren't very stable, and it's fucking expensive as shit, there's a mod called SPT which lets you play singleplayer and mod it into your liking with other content but you can get banned for using it
>>719468925It's a very love-hate game. I think he's right, it'll be mixed.It has a lot of flaws that we accept because there's nothing quite like it.
>>719468483>5 years after the devs selling banned accounts to cheaters they open up to steamWhy now? Do they have so many eyes on them now that they can't strike down and attack influencers or people calling out their old internal account stealing and reselling scam and their cheat selling from Contract Wars that they need a boost from wasting money pushing their arena map?
>>719468483wiggle vid showcasing it's mostly lowlife cheaters completely killed the point of playing this
>>719469928You forgot the absolutely abhorrent technical state of the game that been more or less same since 2017. The netcode is one of the worst in the gaming, which would be enough to kill a zero sum game like Tarkov. There are STILL bugs from 2017, too. The sound is still completely fucked, etc., etc. Literally no point in playing this garbage.
>>719468483The game is already so dead and not recovering that they're rushing out 1.0 with half the shit broken and half the roadmap missing. No one is interested in paying for this shit game a second time and its reputation is so bad no significant amount of new players will want to flock to it
>>719468483Isn’t this game like 50% hackers at the high ranks just like Counter strike and hunt showdown.
>>719468925it was fun for a while but there's too many hackers and the developers are too lazy and uncaring to do anything about it
>>719469928You do? I only use BSG client to DL the files for SPT, and I haven't been banned.
>>719468925>I thought people loved this shitDid you just wake up from 2019? Tarkov is the epitome of "fell off". It's gone to shit, the grinding and time wasting is 1000x worse than it ever was, it's buggier than ever, the game is 80% chink hackers. No one wants to play it other than youtubers who foolishly built their entire channel around it and now can't pivot away because their audience just wants to watch the game rather than ever have the displeasure of playing it themselves.
>>719470452>50%It's probably higher than that. >>719470447Niggita has to keep it running. If it goes belly up, he (and the rest of the studio) is going straight to the trenches. I'm not even making this up, they dodged the draft exclusively because they are making Tarkov.
>>719470452>50% hackers kek russian game with russian players
>>719468483>paypigging shit game|:<>paypigging shit game, fat greedy slob gets 30% cutO:WHYARESTEAMIESLIKETHIS???
>>719470626And chinks. Chinks dunking on dumb gweilos who are not using hacks.
>>719470546Based
>>719468483Some things to consider:-Arc Raiders, the only other extraction shooter that seems to be on its way to success, will also be buy to play and is releasing 2 weeks before EFT-People largely underestimate how much you restrict your market by not being on Steam if you are not making a f2p game.-EFT features a PvE mode and will have a story quest line on release, SPT also has modding support. This is not the case for every other extraction shooter like Hunt, Arc Raiders, Dark and Darker.>What's the point of PvEYou may not see it but plently of people play it occasionally or exclusively, EFT features good gun autism for loot goblins, light RPG mechanics, quests (that kinda suck for now), and as of 1.0 an end game-EFT has around 7 years of dev time behind it, so it's no contest on the content and features departmentFor those reasons, I predict that EFT release on Steam will be a massive success, will revitalize the game and completely mog Arc Raiders and Marathon in terms of player numbers.
1.0 will bring a ton of fuckers back even if you don't like it.They will never truly resolve the cheating situation because it's baked in at the lowest level of spaghetti code that they can never ever fix. That said, every PC game is suffering from a cheating epidemic because of third worlders getting internet access.
>>719468483Too late unless they make it f2p. We're only couple months away from kino.
>>719470780counterpoint: cheaters
It's supposed to be the frustrating anti-game and it was good at that. If it was just that, I would have expected "mostly positive" on Steam. But there's a layer of bullshit on top of that with the shitty CPU-limited Unity build, wiping the game but instead of making new missions you have to do the same fucking ones again before reaching new content, and the different editions of the game that give you larger secure cases which are basically impossible to get without paying.They've shown their true colors over and over and even after backlash, they don't reverse anything. The game has been in "early access" for a decade and instead of apologizing to customers over that, they think they're entitled to more praise and money for working so hard to update the unfinished product for so long, hence adding another paid edition before the game was even done.
>>719468483will PvE still be a separate purchase?
>>719470980Just play SPT. It's the same game, except with tons of mods from AI to loot, to progress to quests, that make it 100x better than anything BSG has ever made.
>>719470980I think they said something about selling the PvE only mode for cheaper than the base game and give the option to upgrade, I don't know if they'll actually go through with it. But SPT for now is superior and you can play that with normal edition. Nigita said they'll add mod support to PvE some day but that may be something that happens in years from now.
It's crazy that ETF will be available on Steam before Arena Breakout: Infinite. Idk what those chinks are thinking, but keeping ABI as "coming soon" on Steam while being at the end of season 2 of the full launch is certified retardation.
>>719470913Other extraction shooters have the same problem, EFT is a bit worse because of RMT but it's as frustrating losing a character to a wallhacker on Hunt. And if you're really frustrated and PvP isn't mandatory for you to have fun, there's PvE.
>>719468483>the wiggle video
>>719470980SPT great and there are plenty of mods to change it however you like. I literally rp solid snake
Will they implement all the missing skills for 1.0?
>>719468483The game appeals to me, but I already heard how riddled it is with hackers so I wouldn't even bother touching it. I'll stick to stalker.
If it is really coming to steam that means that nikita can't sell the game on his own anymore. No other reason to split the revenue.
>>719470780Thanks for the feedback, Nikita.
>>719468483>omg the extract camping/hacking simulator is coming to steam!!!!!
>>719470591>I'm not even making this upYou are indeed making this up.
>>719468483the game is a p2w scam. dont fall for it
>>719471694You're welcome, and thank YOU for being a TRVE BELIEVER
>>719471849Get ready for those drones up your ass, Nik.
>>719472079Doubling down on the fake doesn't make you any less gay.
extraction shooters are retarded dumbed down version of battle royales. in a BR you all spawn with nothing and there is a win condition of being the sole survivor. extraction is soulless.
Fortnite has been working on an extraction shooter mode for two to three years ‐ if they actually ship it, it'll mean 1 - Significantly better anticheat2 - Fully f2p mechanically with just skins sold3 - You can play fortnite tarkov with goku, hatsune miku, the gorillaz, and Sabrina carpenter
>>719468483lmao, this has to be a humiliation ritual.I'm buying just to leave a negative review and refounding kek
>>719472757>3 - You can play fortnite tarkov with goku, hatsune miku, the gorillaz, and Sabrina carpenterOkay, but why?
Is SPT still alive? I'm not paying for some fag's london loft.
>>719472987very much so.
more chinese cheaters with [head eyes]thx, Nikita
>>719472919Because people like using video game cosmetics and fortnite has a wide varietyIf you just want a basic camo outfit im sure they'll have one for free, and they also have been experimenting with just using parts of a skin on a full body outfit/disguise so that could happen
>>719473323Well until the day comes when they start experimenting on client side options to disable skins or enable certain skin theme overrides... then lol
>>719470638You lost Timmy.
Lots of refunding.
>>719468483It died years ago so I doubt much will change
>>719473163Is there something that raplaced SWAG + Donuts for the newer versions?
>>719468483I can't wait to post steam charts of this game
>>719468483it would probably sell billions if it didnt have a shit name like for example escape from tarkov or something equally stupid
>>719469928>>719470546You don't "get banned". Installations are completely separate whatsoever. Only thing what can create problems is if registry entries get messed up with wrong paths.I swear to god most people are illiterate techlets who should just use console games.
>>719471185It's hubrisMany devs genuinely think they're the next Riot/Mojang by avoiding Steam
>>719468483people will>buy the game>get head eyes'd within 15sec of starting ground zero by some dude with esp and radar loot vaccuming everything on the map>try again, get head eyes'd by some dude literally teleporting around the map with an open mic trying to shill their cheat software>do that 5 more times and get nowhere because they'll see guys like that every raid, often multiple per raid>realise that due to the "hardcore" stat tracking nature of the game, an extraordinary number of players buy into cheats to maintain a positive kda - it's endemic to the community at this point and you just have to get used to it>give up, pay extra for pve to get away from all that shit>get head eyes'd by a scav squatting in a bush with a toz from 150m out>get one tapped in the thorax by a scav due to a bullshit fragmentation roll>get one tapped by a scav because they did that thing where they lock onto you like the fucking terminator and track you through walls for minutes at a time>give up and download spt with sain to make the bots enjoyable to fight>realise that without pvp the game has fucking nothing to offer since it's just endless filler quests, and has been subsisting exclusively on delusional "1.0 will make tarkov great again" hype for 3+ years nowit'll probably sell great but the active player dropoff is gonna be insane
>>719468483Who cares, its full of cheaters and r*ssians
>>719468483Just pirate SPT. Games like this aren't worth it when 80% of the playerbase are cheaters.
Can I get the game on Steam if I already own it?
>>719468483that game is a cheater fest
>>719470226>Why now?Because it's 1.0
>>719477546Nigita will probably give free keys to people who have already bought the game. Needless bad PR and a drop in the bucket compared to the new Steam market he will be getting.
>>719477546eod/unheard only
>/v/ claims to be into hardcore games>Tarkov causes nothing but endless seethe from /v/Yeah I was filtered by the difficulty too but I can admit that instead of crying
>>719477697Thank goodness.>>719477732Fine by me!
>>719470452>at the high ranks
>>719477697>give free keys to people who have already bought the gameThat makes no sense. I could give this key to a friend and now there's two people playing the game for a price of 1.
>>719477546no because that requires the dev to spend the revenue fee because valve only allows you to make 10k keys for free and after that it takes it out of your pocket
>>719470378>abhorrent technical stateThat is definitely a huge issue.The difference in performance and avoiding their netcode from hosting your won local server is insane and a testament to how fucked shit is.
>>719477687>1.0Does that mean no more wipes or have they given up?
>>719468925bro what happen? I don't pay any attention and know nothing about the game but what happen??????retard
>>719477804It makes me laugh how allergic /v/ is to Tarkov. It makes sense though that 90% of the people's experience with it is a youtube video, ther other 5% shit their pants when they couldn't figure out how to extract
>>719468925I would love it too if it wasn't for blatant ass cheating that half of the community is doing. Core concept is fucking awesome, but Cheaters will destroy everything.
>>719477675still remember that time he was streaming a few wipes back and some fuckwit was teleporting all around him saying "just give up"gg no re
>>719477546What Niggita will do is force you to buy a separate Steam version. Already bought it before it came to Steam? Too bad, spend more money like good little cattle you are.No account linking or game transferring allowed.
>>719477675What am I supposed to be seeing here?
>>719470591>I'm not even making this upHe's not a Ukrop though?
>>719478020Cheating in multiplayer games should result in a prison sentence>>719478305>get blinded>use your second screen running ESP to see the map anyway
>>719477936A lot of stuff is still in the air, Nigita previously talked about separate playlists, one with periodic wipes the other without. The 1.0 release is still far away and I'm sure they will be talking more about what's new, supposedly 1.0 will change a lot of things (story quests, in-game traders, new skills etc.) which is maybe why the last 3 wipes or so barely had any new content besides weapons.
Isn't it a Russian game?
>>719478365>1.0 release is still farNov 15
>>719477804>Yes i enjoy loosing everything even tho ivan tarkov sniped me with a makarov cause you see ivan when you hold "pistol like this">>719472757 it ll mean ratkids will stole your shit to add more burn then they drop the game mode when only the winners are there and dont want not grief
>>719478808Can we admit that>every time I died it was a cheateris cope?
>>719478414balkian game ivan
>>719478901dont you have another open beta to flex on twitch tranny?
>>719478987Sounds like you watch streamers a lot to know what they're up to
>>719479024no just this board and other echo chambers
>>719479067mhm
>>719470780Arc Raiders seems like ass, I would be surprised if it does Hunt Showdown numbers.
>>719478808>loosingstopped reading, you're an illiterate poo golem
dud not see that coming. as long as SPT still just werks that's fine with me, if it somehow breaks it Nigkita is getting my stinky shit mailed to him (this is a threat)
>>719479242how could nikita break your spt?I still have my 3.9.8 install and it works as well as it did last year, I don't have to deal with the nonsense factory expansion and all of the performance issues that came after that game version
>>719468483At this point Tarkov is like LoL: anyone who wanted to play this has already played it. This will be a lot like Arcane, which Riot thought would bring in more players but didn't, because if they were interested in trying LoL they already had-.
>>719468483Is there a cheat mod for single player tarkov that just lets me cheat, I want to loot and kill AI enemies.
>>719479734get the map mod and turn on all the ESP stuff I guess
>>719479734Aren't there various god mode mods or has SPT been updated too much that all those mods are too outdated to be used?
>>719468483Get ready for the the paid free shit to get even more crazy. 300$ for the priority queue that doesn't exist kek
>>719468483i always thought it was already on steam to begin with
>>719480702Real g@mers are excited to finally be able to play Nikita Buyanov's genre defining cult classic Escape From Tarkov at an affordable price.
