Tell me reasons not to buy or play this game.
>>729871498Muh hands up don't shoot
>Friendly!
>spawn in with shit gear>loot better gear>to...spawn in and loot more gearwhat's the point?
Gear and therefore looting is basically pointless, basic ass free kits and the best loadouts in the game are nearly on the same playing field. There are also other issues but gear is currently the biggest one.
>>729871498The game went through development hell and made a pivot to the extraction shooter slop, because the devs couldn't figure out how to make their game more fun and engaging, so now it's a "player sandbox" with "emergent gameplay". The devs STILL have no idea what to do about the non-existent endgame. So far their answer is - just reset (optional) and grind player progression all over again every two months. But you can opt-out of that and keep your progress. But worst of all is the balance. Devs are shitters at their own game, so they can't recognize the balance issues, and in fact are encourage and empower shitters players like themselves.
>>729871498I really thought I wouldn't like it, ignored it until the sale, and I'm having a blast
>>729872106You bought a game you thought you wouldn't like?
>>729872106I'm glad you're enjoying it, anon.
it's woke
>>729871498It's boring once you reach level 75
>>729871498>spawn in the middle of the map >gets immediately killed
>>729871587What does the better gear let you do then?
already outdated and won't last much longer
>>729877634It doesn't "let" you do anything. It's just worth more.
>>729877796It's got 250k players, when will it end?
>>729871498It's not a game. There is no win condition or objective. You just waste time wandering around looting garbage for no reason. Sometimes you run in to other players who are also doing this. They can shoot you but usually won't because there is no point. If they do it doesn't matter because there is nothing to lose and no score.
It's fun with friends, so naturally, /v/ does not understand the hype.
>>729871498Goty
>>729871498third person makes for garbage pvp shooters
>>729871498There's nothing to do
>>729871498I played it because my friend pushed me to try it. I can't stand this game. It's just running around and trying to collect bullshit to craft into more bullshit and getting shot by assholes or sitting there and waiting then shooting assholes without a chance to do anything. I've been on both end to the gun. It's not satisfying at all. I can see the appeal. There is a sense of "dread" or "high tension" or whatever every time you go out. But it's just overall not that fun in my experience. Everyone is just kill on sight now. PVPVE = PVP period.
That it's a generic, corporate live service shooter that is only getting attention because it's a new product that isn't terrible. Why waste money on something that will die out when the "hype" and marketing budget run out?
>>729881993>collect bullshit to craft into more bullshitCrafting is a net loss. You just sell shit as is.
this game is for people who aren't good or autistic enough for tarkov
>>729882135>why waste money on something that will eventually end
>>729882262Even more reason to call it all "bullshit."
>>729871498Friends got me to buy itPlayed for 10 hours and it was boring as fuck, there are no goals and nothing happens. Slow paced with shitty combat and the losers playing don't know how to engage with proximity chatWhat a shit game and the fact that this is the most played right now just goes to show what kind of retards are making up these majority player counts
>>729877796literally has as many players as when it launched, cope
>>729871498How do you avoid anxiety when you solo queue?
>>729883036by not being a faggot. this is the biggest pussy pvp multiplayer game. nobody will shoot you
>>729871498it's shit and a flavour of the month
There's just no point in progressing anything. You can run a free kit for the entire fucking game and complete quests/unlock stuff, but because the difference in TTK between endgame gear and free shit isn't that big it's all pointless anyway. Might as well load in with a lvl1 stitcher and ambush people around corners, you'll win just the same as you would if you had a bobcat.A lot of the game would be fixed if they nerfed the fuck out of free kits. These nerfs would force people to play their real characters more which I think would be healthy>free kits never spawn with shields>cooldown on using your free kit (~30 mins)>can't complete any tasks while running a free kit
I really want to get into extraction shooters but nothings been clickingMaybe PUBG black budget will do it
>>729877634be very slightly better, but if someone who has spent nothing on their kit gets the jump on you, you lose regardless
>>729882716This. I'll stick to my niche titles that are actually made with me (the player) in mind and not made for me (the consumer)
>>729871498>Swedish Developers this is far more important a red flag than anyone realizes>Nonthreatening PvE makes PvP the only side that matters>Said PvP boils down to whoever shoots first since the low ttk has even the heaviest shield burst down in sub one second with mediocre aim using starting guns like the Stitcher or Kettle>Little real progression when starting guns and shield are 90% as effective as endgame>Live Service>Awful desync has people being shot behind walls like 400ping potato servers>Ugly Starfield aesthetic>LOOTER shooter that constantly loads you fifteen minutes late into maps with NO LOOTThat's about it in a nutshell from what I played for fifty hours before dropping it. It was a waste of time and money with very little fun had. >>729883036Run around as a freekit in Buried City as a retarded murderhobo ten times, and by the end of it, you'll be numb to any stimuli or pleas for mercy. The fastest way to get over anxiety in this or any other game is rote exposure until it doesn't register anymore
>>729880395I have friends and I still don't want to play this with them. I have so much time in peak and phasmo btw so it's not that i have an issue doing nothing.
