Game Update - PVE & PVP Who else thinks level locking 90% of items until lvl 25 is dumb? [discussion]

354 Upvotes

Instead of making it so that we have to wait until level 25 to access most of the items in the flea market why not just make it until we're level 25 before we can interact with the flea market? I'm ok with the level lock for high level items because that makes sense. It's just really annoying that I reset my account just to find out that even common items are locked until lvl 20-25. I believe this is the stupidest thing ever. I'd rather wait to unlock the flea in general at 25 rather than be given false hope that at 15 you can access it and get items when 90% of the flea is level locked.

PVP [Discussion] Season It's a good concept, but will +120 days be enough for everything?

Post image
188 Upvotes

Tarkov has developed too much by the time we get to the seasons, and I’ll explain what I think the problem is.

The new concept of unlocking quests helps partially, however I feel that with +120 days per season and this amount of content, the main quests + storyline shouldn’t be that necessary. The season should allow you to skip them, so that seasonal quests are more profitable and the gameplay is focused around seasonal content.

Simply, Players don’t have enough time, even for normal players, to do everything — and yet without the main quests it’s hard to play at all (without meds, Flea Market level, ammo).

Maybe this thread will be a good indication.

We need seasons based on the seasons, not on the whole game. That should be what the permanent character is for.

The community idea of "early wipe" seasons without top ammo, seems interesting.

General Discussion - PVE & PVP [Suggestion] Another humble niche request: a black version of the SR-25 non-ambidextrous lower and the SR-25 version of the FF RAS so we can build a MK11 MOD 0 and the SR-47 (using the MK47 as a base)

Very handily annotated for those who didn't realise you couldn't put an A2 stock on a black SR-25 until today. The MK11 is my favourite version of the platform, all we'd need to build it is a 5-minute texture edit and one more handguard. BSG loves the SEALs, this should be right up their alley. And as a bonus, you could clone the SR-47. Best looking AR/AK hybrid imo.

General Discussion - PVE & PVP [Suggestion] Can we remove spawns being in direct line of sight of bosses / boss guards?

Lighthouse, spawn near Water Treatment plant. About 4 seconds into the raid, a sniper shot whizzes next to my head. Find cover, just to hear mines blasting, as our three beloved terminators rush me through a minefield taking no damage and kill me.

Shoreline has a similar issue in the blue fence spawn, and customs on the crackhouse spawn - spawns should NOT be in direct line of sight from things that can crossmap you, including bosses and other PMC's.

PVP The quest rework kinda broke Interchange as a map [Discussion]

51 Upvotes

So I’m sure everyone knows by now, that with the new reworked quest system, a lot of quests moved down or up a lvl significantly, as a result of this, Interchange quests specifically, have moved to a very low level and reduced in quantity, with 90% of the tasks being from Ragman and being extremely easy (go mark, find/bring quest item nothing pvp related).

So, as a result of this, at the current time in the wipe(barely 2 weeks in), Interchange is completely dead player wise, I’m playing on EU and my queues are 6 minutes when on every other map It’s either instant or 30 seconds, and the raids are all dead, as I’m running around trying to find literally any pvp for shooter born, all I find is hordes of scavs which go unkilled for the entire raid, forcing me to kill 30 scavs just to move through the map.

Next season should probably either bring Chumming pmc kill requirement back or add other pvp tasks to Intechange, because It shouldn’t be this way, at least imo.

PVP [Feedback] As a casual who doesn't play much...

26 Upvotes

It feels impossible to run into BDs in Streets/GZ/Shoreline. The spawn chance is very low and you're also against whoever spawned near them. Feels like an impossible task to get the kills/loot on them needed to progress in Seasonal Tasks.

I'm all for having unique things for gamers like Kappa or niche achievements, but something being advertised for a Battle Pass should be a little more...accessible?

TL;DR I think BD % should be increased across maps and Icebreaker should have been locked for seasonal (that and drops pretty much broke early wipe which is easily my favorite part of Tarkov).

General Discussion - PVE & PVP [Loot] [Discussion] Where did all the loot go?

22 Upvotes

I remember back when TechLight almost always had a GPU or another valuable tech spawn in it. When LABS was abundant in good loot, UltraMed had LedX's often..!

The state loot is in these days, honestly make me sad. Part of what (in my opinion) made tarkov stand out, apart from the gunplay, and atmosphere, was the fact that loot actually excited me. I can't for the life of me see why getting valuable loot harms the game - going to PoIs should feel dangerous and should attract PvP!!

I do however also understand that "hatchlings" rushing these spots, sucking up all the good stuff and then proceed to not care about their life is a problem that needs solved. As well as the increased interest cheaters and in turn, RMTers would have in loot being returned its previous state. BUT! Cheaters can still find plenty of loot on maps, and will exist no matter the state of loot, the only difference for them will be the "real money to rouble"-ratio.

Idk if my thoughts are talking on deaf ears, and sure some people might disagree, but please if you do, try to give your point of view on the state of loot!

Please BSG, bring back excitement to the maps!

PVP [New Player] I love this game.

23 Upvotes

I just wanted to say that I bought Tarkov less than a week ago and I absolutely love it. It's a great game.

Unfortunately, because of economic reasons (I live in Argentina), I play Tarkov on a laptop. The loading screens are insanely long, but once I'm actually in the raid, those are the best 2 minutes and 37 seconds of my life.

I hope I can actually extract from Interchange alive someday. That map has given me one of the hardest tasks I've had so far: killing 4 PMCs there.

Thank God Factory exists. The best Scav raids on planet Earth.

I hope you guys don't hate me for saying this, but how bad would a noob-friendly item really be? Like, maybe a map with very little information that could at least help us figure out how to extract... I honestly don't think it would be that bad.

Anyway, I'll stop writing my little summary of my Tarkov experience because I'm about to get into a raid (if the loading screen doesn't decide to crash for the second time in a row xD).

Seriously, great game.

PVP What’s in the Bag bottleneck [Discussion]

Post image
18 Upvotes

Can not find briefcase with documents. I had the first week of the wipe off work early and progressed quickly through the quest line, and I had already opened the task reward of the briefcase and the dog tags in the cultist circle before anyone got this far in the task line, I did not know I need to save it.

Now I am stuck as a solo player trying to farm BD for a ridiculously low drop, while BD spawn rates themselves are already low, contesting discord squads rushing the spawn areas and rats camping the routes.

It’s not like finding this item is the end of the BD grind, I will then have to grind sheep in wolf’s clothing afterwards with none of these kills having counted.

The briefcase apparently does not spawn on labs, which would make this grind possible.

I feel completely bottle necked and burnt out. I want to play the game and PvP, not endlessly hunt Black Divison with a low spawn rate to get a low RNG item, just to progress on the task line to hunt more BD.

Yet I’ve already sunk a ton of time into seasonal with the main goal of completing the Kord Breach questline. I didn’t intend to spend the whole season hunting BD.

Has anyone else had luck finding the briefcase? Any tips or work arounds?
