      Which makes making Arena before finishing their promise to finish Tarkov WITH Tarkov promise money all the more scummy.
      Also I guarantee Arena flopping is why Nikita did this. He spent a bunch of money developing a second broken game instead of finishing the first as he promised, and now he's trying to get the money back. Any way he can, even at the cost of tarkov.

      This feels like a pretty accurate take on the subject. Russians are a pretty arrogant culture, and they don't take criticism well, on the rare occasion that they take it at all. I've known a couple of russians personally and every one of them acted like they were above everyone else. I can absolutely imagine Nikita and his boys puffing up their chests, slamming their shoes on the table and yelling that this is THEIR game and THEY are the bosses. Totally fits.

      EFT takes so much effort to get into. It's emotionally draining. This was the last straw. There is literally nothing they can do to win me back. At this point I'd prefer a game mostly driven by AI with human guidance giving the humans enough time to actually take care of the community and focus on a healthy ecosystem around the game to drive profits. From merch to simple community highlights. BSG can do so much and they do so little. They don't care about EFT. Nikita only cares about the inhouse assets they get to create via the tunneling of money from players via EFT.

      and all the casuall players will be pushed away because they will just quit, they won´t even get in the same matches as priority players because they will add high priority shit

    How to Save Tarkov:
    *1. Admit wrongdoing and apologize.*
    - (This may be the biggest ask on this list, I know.)
    - It's been made clear whoever is running BSG's socials does not have their emotions in check. Unprofessional comments have been made to competitors in the space, and BSG has tripled down on their claims while disregarding the feedback and overall sentiment of the community.
    - All we want is to feel heard, an official apology must be made.
    *2. Temporarily Roll back the Unheard Edition*
    - Individually, every perk inside this edition is not game-breaking, but everything put together, at a price tag of $250 USD, it is clear this edition must be reworked
    - Do not offer refunds, that would get too complicated.
    - Simply remove the edition from sale while they work out the details on what to fix and how.
    *3. Make "Distress signal device" and "Mark of The Unheard" PvE only.*
    - This ONE change would remove all major concerns of Pay to Win mechanics from the new bundle.
    - These mechanics are fine additions to the game, but only if they are present in PvE game mode only.
    *4. Give EOD Edition Owners access to PvE*
    - No matter which way you slice it, PvE mode is a downloadable update that attaches to the main game.
    - This is by definition DLC, and should be given to EOD owners free of charge.
    *5. Make PvE Mode a separate add-on purchase to Main Game*
    - $50 gets you the new PvE mode, if you don't have EOD edition.
    - This PvE mode is an amazing addition to Tarkov, and could help new players enter the extremely punishing genre that is Tarkov. But locking it behind a $250 is not just idiotic, it disregards the barrier of entry and longevity of the game.
    *6. Offer a NEW Secure Container.*
    - This new secure container is a 2x2 with an additional 1x1 slot.
    - Think Alpha Container, but with one extra separated slot.
    - Gamma container was supposed to be EOD exclusive, this is why websites have been changed and dev vlogs have been hidden.
    - Offer this new edition a container that is better than Alpha, but not as good as Gamma.
    *7. Make the increased Pocket Size unlock-able via quests with Ragman*
    - This mechanic is pay to win. It may not offer a severe advantage, but it is pay to win nonetheless.
    - This mechanic must be made available to unlock for free for all players.irst and foremost, a

      How to Monetize Going Forward:
      * Weapon Camo Bundle (New Item)
      * If purchased, you receive daily / weekly mail from Ragman with paint buckets. These paint buckets can be applied to weapons to change their color in-game.
      * Paint buckets can be found in raid and bartered for, but are extremely extremely rare.
      * Paint buckets are not unlimited use, and have limited uses before you need to find another one.
      * Making paint buckets spawn in raid would remove all arguments about potential Pay to Win mechanics since they can be found for free.
      * Introduce an "Artistry Skill"
      * When you first apply weapon camos to your weapon, it's messy and patchy, but as you level this skill up you can completely cover the weapon making it look clean.
      * Voice Line Bundles
      * Add voice line packs that can be purchased.
      * This would add new funny interactions to Tarkov, people would make content about it, and it would bring more people in that spend money.
      * Weapon Charms
      * Rainbow Six, Valorant, Arena Breakout, they all have weapon charms.
      * This mechanic adds a nice flair to your weapons but does not give you an advantage.
      * They could even introduce streamer weapon charms like Rainbow Six Siege.
      * A new module can be crafted in the hideout for crafting these cosmetics.
      * If you die with a gun that has a weapon charm or a weapon skin, you lose that but it can be crafted in hideout again.
      * Add New Cosmetics.
      * Let players purchase new gloves
      * New boots for purchase.
      * New melee weapons for purchase.
      * You see where I'm going with this.
      * Add Hideout Cosmetics
      * This is in the realm of the "Hideout Cat"
      * Adding in new items to purchase to further personalize your hideout, without game-breaking pay to win mechanics.
      * Think of Clash Of Clans reskinning your base. You could have entire hideout overhauls that change the look and feel of your hideout.
      * Add new PMC Operators.
      * No, I'm not talking about Nicki Minaj skins that are bright pink.
      * I'm talking about badass looking soldiers that fit the aesthetic of the game.

They *might* make some kind of half assed "we are sorry about how the community reacted to the news we were excited to share" -kind of "apology".

    Offline co-op Tarkov should be a standalone edition, completely separate from the base game, because:
    1. It would be a new-player friendly version for people trying out Tarkov.
    2. It would draw in more players to buy the full game, ultimately giving bsg way more funding.
    3. BSG wouldn’t need to pay for servers to run offline modes.
    4. Lots of people would stop using third-party offline mods, since the offline version of Tarkov could be priced so that its cheaper than buying a standard edition of the game and then modding it.

      It should be a standard feature. You should be able to play PVE, or PVP. Most games offer this as part of the base game.

    I feel like I should apologise for the hatred you received on the last video. I personally didn't realise you weren't aware of it. I hope you have a good time on your holiday

    unfortunately i think you're a bit of a community leader when it comes to tarkov moite, your word carries weight and if you're soft on a company thats ripping off the fans and community, they'll think its acceptable once the dust settles.

    I've already sue'd them, their move to try changing EOD details in their site was dirty and just made everything worse.
