Thread 723734428

Nikita Buyanov, genius inventor of the extraction shooter genre and part-time scammer, will release his Magnum Opus (Escape from Tarkov) the 15th of November. Are we excited?

I've never played Tarkov but I'm actually going to play it now that it's coming to Steam

>>723734428 (OP)
Not my problem. Already playing Arena infinite and recommend you do the same. I don't have anything against Russians but I rather give a other 80 bux to ten cent for glove skin than a single penny to that greedy russian gypsy asshole

>>723735363
To be honest I don't know what he was thinking when they decided someone who already bought the game would have to purchase it again on Steam. Could've sold a 5€ "upgrade" to people who already owned it and while still nickle and diming would've been far less worse PR. I'm thinking he was fearing an avalanche of bad reviews from the old guard right on release. Or he's just that greedy/retarded.

>Part-time scammer
Full time scammer. Base game Tarkov is a hellish skinnerbox where you are thrown to the wolves of poopsocks and blatant cheaters/hackers in almost every raid. It's not worth playing.
SPT and PvE (if you're sunk cost enough to have already bought the game) are better experiences because you're not there just to be fodder that feeds some cheating chink's ego.
When nobody is hacking and everyone has to operate on incomplete information, the PvP is fantastic. However, that's almost never the case.

I wonder if we'll be able to play SP. I don't really play MP games

>>723735958
Turns outs, there's a Steam page, just checked and no SP. FUck that

>>723734428 (OP)
How did they solve the cheating issue?

>>723735702
Yeah coming from the guy that charged 200 bucks for PVE
Nikita is just an asshole on a cosmic level
I 200% believe the "theory" that he actively tolerates cheaters so they keep buying copies. The man is just of such greed.

>>723735958
There's a PvE mode that exists (although I think rn you have to pay 20€ for the "upgrade", who knows when it'll release on Steam), but Nikita hates it and gatekeeps some features (Prestige). The mode released with shitty NPC AI but it's been improved a lot, although still not as good as SPT (standalone conversion of Tarkov that has mods).
>>723736090
lol

>>723736094
I personally believe he refuses to implement a server replay because he doesn't want to reveal exactly how bad the cheating problem is.

This is an eight year old game

>>723734428 (OP)
Nikita is a girl's name.

Niggita doesn't know what optimization is.
Did the memory leak ever get fixed?

>>723736127
Your information is outdated. PvE costs 30 (plus taxes, total cost is closer to 40).
So, buying Standard Edition plus PvE is around $100 or so.

>>723736094
>I 200% believe the "theory" that he actively tolerates cheaters so they keep buying copies.
Yeah I don't buy this when people say it about any other dev/company but Nikita? I buy it.

Just lost all my gear in Chinese Tarkov... I am financially ruined...

>>723736529
Yeah but it's also using sorcery of the highest level to turn Unity into whatever they turned it into. Like I cannot believe they ever chose Unity for a project like this.

>>723736679
>>723736779
Those specs are bullshit, I bet to get out of having to give refunds to anyone over performance issues. I have a 1080ti and 16 GB of RAM and the game runs fine outside of the occasional stutter on Streets which more RAM would likely fix. The other fix which I use is not playing Streets because it's a shit map.

>>723736090
By making everyone who plays either cheat or tolerate it.

>>723736529
>4070 came out 2 years ago

>>723736529
>64GB RAM
I have 48GB and this is still ludicrous. Someone should be murdered

Why do russians always look like slightly different versions of the same guy

>>723737231
>1080 was 50 years ago
Let that sinks in

>>723736529
Don't look back at this pile of crap
The chinks made a improved ripoff that runs 2x better and looks better. Tarkov is just so fucking dark and oversaturatated , you forget how shitty it looks when your switch to Arena. It's such a BLESSING to fight in rooms where you actually can see the enemies. Thank you Tencent. It's okay to steal from greedy assholes

>>723737489
You know you can change your graphic settings right? What's the ripoff called though I can't even bring myself to play after watching my buddy load in with walls and run into cheaters in literally every raid

>>723734428 (OP)
This game is legit the most unfun game ever and I have 2000 hours in it.
The only time I had fun in it was when I was unemployed.

>>723734428 (OP)
>genius
lmao he's russian
>inventor of the extraction shooter genre
that was the division 1
>Escape from Tarkov) the 15th of November
hope you enjoy paying for it again because he's a greedy ruskyjew

>>723735702
>I don't know what he was thinking
He was thinking he can fleece people. Russians are greedy fucks and scammers, more news at 11

>>723737657
It's not supposed to be "fun" it's supposed to be a tense hardcore experience.

does tarkov still have the same three footstep sounds replaying nonstop? its the one thing that kills my interest in the game lol

only video i could find of it:

>>723737732
There are russian geniuses, plenty of them, asshurt fact. The problem is Nikita is kinda a genius, EFT was a milestone in FPS. The while Game is Genius, also in eays its an horrible timesink
Only Nikitia is an Evil Genius suffering from greed that are deathly-sin Level strong

>723738078
niggita pls go, we hate you

>>723737904
It's retarded dogshit with no real vision and Nikita's vision is unachievable.
It's slop that isn't rewarding unless you play it full time like a job

playing tarkov feels like I'm speed feeding the antichrist with my loosh

>>723734428 (OP)
fuck off, Nikita

>>723737904
-> /eftg/ is that way

>>723738142
We love Nikita here, actually.

>>723738273
Nikita is a genius. After the game became (accidentally) streamer bait and formed streamer niche he began to implement faggoty time sink mechanics. If you don't play every day you can't keep up with the people who do and therefore you will feed them.
This is why cheating is also so rampant. Game is not fun unless it's your job and only streamers get paid to play games if you catch my drift.

>>723739272
True. Even the Chinese bow to Nikita's genius and can't help but make vidya in his honor.

>>723739125
not even /eftg/ likes him

>>723739941
I think it's time to think about making some grift. This game really looks like it was put together in 6 months or so.

>>723740103
We told you countless times that there was a market for PvE extraction shooters but you all laughed at us and called us "timmies" while you where the "chads". Now some Chinese team sold 500k copies of Duck Tarkov. Sad!

>>723740409
It is when you think about it and this game is literal shovelware. Best grifts in life are like this. Lot to learn.

>>723740538
what did he sneed by this

>>723740409
Chinkd also made a blatant ripoff of Tark PVP and it has 50k steam players, not counting the 3 year pre-releasr sweats.
Suck it Nickelkita

>>723740495
It's cheaply made but also cheap and runs bug free, I think you were just blind to the business opportunity and untapped market. Hope this was a learning moment for you.

No and Russians should be exterminated

>>723738273
>it has no vision
>Nikita's vision is unachievable
which is it?

>>723737391
mongolian genes

>>723736094
It’s not a theory. This fat Russian cunt took part in some Russian games presentation many years ago talking about how cheaters are good for a games profit. It’s still on YouTube somewhere.

>>723734428 (OP)
Yeah, just got done with prestige 1 a few weeks ago. Looking forward to see what cool main story content they add, will probably play until "the end" of the main story. Not looking forward to the new players sitting in the most random corner possible and sawing mmy legs in half with a kedr.

I genuinely think there is paid discords of ukranians and other tarkov competitors that shit on this game 24/7 in forums, they literally act like Nikita killed their mother or something. Strange.
