HOW???

>>717968550 (OP)
Sp Tarkov is better
Fuck you nekita

it was fun until it wasn't
that didn't take long
game is shit
devs are literal retards
playerbase are certified faggots
if only battlefield gunplay felt as good

>tarkov
Most boring game I've ever played.
Give me Battlefield 3 or Counter-Strike: Source any day of othe week.

Because it's the only game that scratches a certain type of itch. There are tons of examples like this, war thunder, counter strike and halo are the most prominent.

WHERE THE FUCK IS IT NIKITAAAAAAAAA

oh yeah... i'm thinking it's gaming time

Until they get rid of the cheaters, it will always be in the line of being surpassed. Also they just have no clue what to do with player spawns, you either rush the nearest spawn or wait 5m cause honestly half my deaths this wipe are people just fighting off spawn within the first 2 minutes.

2021 EFT was peak, it fell off hard

>>717969457
yeah fr fr bruh it was PEAK with no inertia or weight system when I could bunnyhop around and dunk on timmies!!!!

>>717969457
correct

Cheating streamers are such a huge part of Tarkov's marketing and lifted their game out of obscurity to the extent that BSG has manually unbanned streamers caught by their cheat detection multiple times. Now there's an entire demographic of people that are convinced obvious cheating is some sort of secret anime martial art known as "flicking".

RETVRN.

>>717969534
The piss meter too, don't forget the piss meter.

my beloved...

>>717969457
December 2023 with the mass recoil changes was the best wipe.

>>717968792
Playerbase is the most annoying aspect of Nigita's game. Faggots who have 3000 hours in one game etc...
Nigita is doing the right thing: milk those retards out of their money, they deserve this.Players of this game are all insufferable faggots.

>>717968550 (OP)
it's great for about 4-5 weeks and then it's a dumpster fire of no lifers and P2W faggots. this hardcore wipe is easily one of the worst in terms of cheating faggotry and pay 2 win asshats.

>>717970324
I've actually had a lot of fun with the hardcore wipe (outside of no new content minus the leviathan shill goytuber AK which is extremely gay)
funny how quick the fags who brag about being pro at the game start pissing and shitting themselves when BSG makes changes that they can't adapt to with a trusty metaslave guide

do people even play this anymore

Would be goated if Nikita wasn't such a Jew.

>>717969150
i did buy the game and played a bit of the live game, but it's just too difficult and i'm pretty bad at the game + there are cheaters so I got SP Tarkov instead.

just waiting for newer updates and maybe the Realism mod.

>>717970135
>shoot someone in the legs with shrap

For less than the price of EFP you can download some good S.T.A.L.K.E.R. modpacks, which you will enjoy much more

>>717972878
I wanted to get into OP2.2, but it was too fucking broken. I did like several playthroughs, each ending when I reached a quest that just broke and I was too autistic to cheat through it and lose the ability to get achievements.
I also tried gamma, but got bored of it by the time I got to jupiter. Also that was just tarkov-lite.

>>717970490
The flea change hit them that hard?

Dammit, now I wanna try SPT again.

>Dude just play SPT its so much better!!!
It doesnt have other players to fight against/play with
We are not the same you and I

aint nobody playin' this hacker fest unc.

they'll bring them back in 1.0, I'm sure bros...

>>717976203
I have not heard or seen anyone play COOP or PVP
PVP is absolute must, if you play Tarkov only against bots you are really out of the playerpool that the game is designed for.
And you cant really PVP in the same manner of Tarkov even if there are mods, because i doubt there is a central server and instead have to create lobbies beforehand.

love me SP tarkov, simple as

this was everything stalker 2 was supposed to be.

>>717976561
>if you play Tarkov only against bots you are really out of the playerpool that the game is designed for
Yes, and?

>>717975843
SAIN 4.0 has been very kino. bots don't get stuck on doors that often anymore either.

>>717976561
the bots are pretty much as good as players, and the bosses are better on SPT in that they are bullshit good.

>>717976708
So stop trying to pretend your experience fits what the majority of Tarkov player wants
Playing only against bots will never have the same thrill as playing against a human opponent, no matter if the AI is good or not.
>>717976770
Ive seen the vids on YT about SAIN and the bots are very impressive, but its still not the same.
Infact watching the bots fight each other seems more interesting than actually playing it.
>>717976825
It will never be the same experience, no matter how good they make them
I will get no adrenaline boost downing a gigachad with nothing but a scav shotgun because i just outsmarted or cheesed a robot (very easy)
Furthermore, there is no point calling a bot a nigger in VOIP after shooting them

>>717968792
>if only battlefield gunplay felt as good
It's absolutely retarded how in Tarkov you are always better off going full-auto than controlled bursts

im so SHIT

>>717976934
>oh no, I don't get to be killed 50x by cheaters until I finally get a normal lobby and down another player before crying nigger
somehow, I will survive.
also you have not encountered the random scav gigachads who get cracked AI decisions and gear off of PMCs they killed from said decisions.

i just wish there was another game with as good of sound design as tarkov.

i dont think there's any other pvp game out there that has you listening this intensely for other player's footsteps. even you stepping on concrete, metal, glass, or grass will create different kinds and ranges of sounds.

>>717977151
>Plays against bots because he got killed by a suspected cheater once

Cheaters bad mmkay but that doesnt mean i would ever lower myself to playing against an AI ONLY in return
You were never a hardcore gamer, just a pussy masquerading as one

Time to game

>>717977320
>just straight up lying about what was said
ok bro sorry I made you feel like your dick was small

i'd argue that most PVE/SPT players used to play live but opted out because of the recent hardcore wipe.

>>717977368
>Killed by cheaters just 50 times
Nigger who do you think you are talking with
If that shit would piss me off as much as it did myself, i would have just stopped playing the game completely instead of playing against the fucking AI
That shits way more cucked

>>717977338
RIP SWAG/DONUTS

>>717977320
nta and i didn't read the other posts but,
>hardcore gamer
it's a video game? play on whatever makes it fun for you, that's the point. if you're not having fun, stop playing.

>>717977465
we get it.
you read my post and freaked out because suddenly, for unknown reasons, your dick felt tiny.
I already apologized for whatever I did to cause that.

Too bad they keep fucking with the fucking game. Tarkov was and propably still is the best fps game ever made but I have zero trust on the devs after they made everything fucking shit and pay to win

why are tarkov threads so rare on /v/?
you'll see these threads like once every two to three months for some reason. despite all the cheating and dev decisions you can't deny this this an extremely unique game.

>>717977574
Example 1: Cashgrab arena
Example 2: EoD and Unheard
Example 3: Purchaseable stash space
Reminder that tarkov is one of the most expensive games because you have to pay Russia tax and on top of that has completely pay to win retarded systems

>>717977629
because there is a general on vg

>>717977629
/v/ is full of coomers, pajeets/spics who can't run demanding games and pedophiles
It appeals to none of those groups, so it goes unmentioned

>>717977629
Theres one here many times a week you just arent as terminally online as many of us others are

>friend who has an unhealthy obsession with EFT buys like half the friendgroup the game a year or three ago
>about 70% of our raids ended with us getting wiped by an extremely blatant cheater to the point where even their usernames were often a reference to the fact that they were cheating
>said friend does the same with PVE Tarkov when it dropped
>friendgroup actually has fun
>until all our ADHD-riddled asses forget we even own tarkov entirely because it's on it's own launcher
thanks for reminding me OP, i'll have to play PVE again soon

>>717977338
i modded my stash to have like 99999 space. when i still filled it up i just deleted my profile and said eh ill wait for a more updated spt version

>>717976934
>So stop trying to pretend your experience fits what the majority of Tarkov player wants
Never did. Although, considering that BSG went out of their way to implement PVE, clearly a significant amount of players do want that.
>Furthermore, there is no point calling a bot a nigger in VOIP after shooting them
I'm not American, so I don't care about that.

>see thread
>think its not another EFT shilling thread
>its actually just SPT while shitting on EFT
lel

>>717978528
>Never did. Although, considering that BSG went out of their way to implement PVE, clearly a significant amount of players do want that.
Yes and it is actually baffling they didnt do it before and with more care put into it, that shit should have been free for standard accounts.
Devs seem to always think they cant make money if they dont charge extra for something, but many people would have bought the game just for PVE.

>I'm not American, so I don't care about that.
Iam not either

>>717978528
>>717978723
as an american, can I get a mod for SPT to make it so the bots occasionally call ME a nigger?
I need to feel properly victimized.

>>717979203
ideally, this would be a sort of event where if I am called a nigger, I get to smash into one of the traders and loot a set of comtac 4s for free.

>>717976561
>I have not heard or seen anyone play COOP or PVP
You being out of the loop isn't my problem

what is your preferred fun way of playing SPT?
I alt + f4 every time i die. don't at me

>>717979896
grab 2 friends, go with light kits until I have the stash and money for nicer stuff.
prefer to run cheapish AK builds with nicer scopes and good ammo

also i have no fucking idea how the vehicle works in Woods. there's some sort of area southeast of the map only accessible while riding it, right?

>>717968550 (OP)
>modern fps
>game for ugly russians
lol

>>717968550 (OP)
Still no MMO FPS.

>>717979896
I only alt + F4 if I got efted

>>717980250
No, you can just walk to it. It’s fine.

>>717980696
what, how, there are mines on the way

>>717980782
Yeah. Sorry, I was just trying to prank you.

>>717979896
Just play with the softcore insurance mod that gives you your gear back if you die if you have that much gearfear.

God, I am so glad I didn't reinstall for the absolute grind fest that is this wipe.
Also, how much of a shitshow do you think 1.0 will be?

>>717981038
fuck u

>>717977320
>You were never a hardcore gamer, just a pussy masquerading as one
get a grip man

>>717981495
personally I'm placing the bet that 1.0 is going to be pure kino that BTFOs the naysayers after years of
>MAAAAAN MORE HITBOXES WILL NEVER BE IN THE GAME
>MAAAAAN THE FLEA MARKET WILL NEVER BE IN THE GAME
>MAAAAAN THE HIDEOUT WILL NEVER BE IN THE GAME
>MAAAAAN STREETS WILL NEVER BE IN THE GAME
>MAAAAAN ARENA WILL NEVER BE IN THE GAME

>>717968697
Can you tell me how to get into it? I just don't find it fun shooting scavs at all in the main game, the fun comes from the tense random situations with unpredictable players imo, how does SP hold itself up to that?

>>717983438
the mods can make it fun, but if you are after a true pvp experience then there's not really much to be done about it.

some mods enhance the ai behavior but i honestly do not have enough pvp experience to tell the difference

another day, another cuck mask faggot down

>>717968550 (OP)
This is the only game that I love but cannot play, the stress makes me ill

>>717987928
same lmao
I played it almost daily a year ago and I ended up having to stop because it made my blood pressure go so high I had to start taking pills to lower it

>>717977018
yeah except for that kek
i mean i wish bf6 had lean, adjustable crouch, blindfire, the way the weapons feel in tarkov is good
except for the retarded auto recoil control

>>717977316
>good of sound design as tarkov
They keep fucking with the audio and it's literally impossible to tell if someone is above or below you, the vertical audio is dogshit. The sound design is also all over the place, some guns sound like they added 200 dB specifically to rape your ears and cause hearing damage while others sound perfectly fine. Not to mention the various amounts of sound bugs that makes you schizophrenic.

>>717981495
This wipe has really been ass. It was fun for a week. That's it. People going for kappa/prestige this wipe are the most mentally ill individuals to roam this planet.

>>717980250
The BTR has a pretty high chance of appearing in raids. It usually shows up from the green flare extract and stops at the USEC checkpoint. You can pay a sum of money and go to the train depot which has a bunch of high value loot. Only way out though is secret extract(note extract), breaking your legs jumping from the top of the train or praying that the BTR returns the last few minutes.

Usually how I make my money, just make sure to bring a big backpack. Sometimes people camp the old train depot where you jump down, but that doesn't happen too often and if you have the UNTAR extract you can just wait until the last 5 minutes and make it out alive 99% of the time.
