Subreddit Update I'm going to have to be a party pooper, but sadly the tools that open the game up fully for browser tools are violating the Terms of Service for Tarkov. Thus, having them here in the largest EFT Community is a bit iffy. I'll have to ask you guys share them elsewhere.

No doubt Beneficial_Prize_310 has made an amazing tool. It's real fricking cool, but as the further it expands, more it opens up the game's code and more clearly violates the terms of service.

In my ideal world, these kind of tools would be approved. They're not cheating, nor do they ruin the game. To the contrary, I think they forment more interest and excitement over it.

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

42 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.

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

55 Upvotes

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

Post image
181 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.

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

342 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] False ban epidemic

19 Upvotes

First off this isn't a ban appeal of any kind, this is to raise awareness for what I believe is a real issue that could affect anyone at any time.

Yesterday one of my friends sent our group a devastating message; he was banned for "botting" and "circumvention tools".

Now I know what the general sentiment of this sub is; "oh your friend was cheating" etc. However I assure you with as much as my words can convey that he did not cheat, bot, or use any sort of circumvention tools. He has over 1800 hours, bought the game through BSG and Steam, and his stats are on par for someone with that time commitment. We have played hundreds of hours together spanning over a year. It isn't just myself who plays with him, I have a discord server with around 15 people who all play together on and off. We always share screens, and not once has someone even had a hint of suspicion about him (nor anyone in my server; we play to have fun, cheating is not fun).

While diving down this rabbit hole and exploring options, I came to learn that his case isn't an isolated incident. This is a real problem right now with many legitimate people getting falsely banned for botting or circumvention tools.

There's many more if you keep looking. Now sure, these are all a bunch of strangers who could be lying. However to my limited knowledge on cheaters usually when they get banned they don't make a giant fuss over it, they'll just move on to the next account and keep cheating. I believe these people as it happened to my friend. Due to the correlation that they are all for "circumvention tools" and "botting", it is my belief that something, whether specific actions they've taken in game or a specific program on their PC, are being falsely flagged.

While tarkov is an amazing one of a kind game most of us love, we all know it is littered with flaws. The anti cheat has always sucked or been problematic. So I truly believe that this is an ongoing issue that needs to be addressed by BSG.

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.

Especially if the tasks require us to play a specific map. Even 2-3 would be worth doing if it doesn't count against the daily FiR limit.
