Technically. You're really just buying the game now, it's in early access, it's only called a pre-order since it isn't a finished product.

So like what PUBG did? Except hopefully with not so many excuses about why bugs aren't being fixed.

Pretty much what every single early access game says. The gameplay in this game is already miles better than PUBG and not any less polished despite how much earlier in its cycle it is, all IMO. As someone who has been playing this game back when you could instantly load magazines, there were no healing animations, painkillers were a one-time use... this game makes big time improvements each major patch and they are really good with bug fixes. It'll have its share of issues, but this game is more polished than a good number of full releases are these days.



Also, I'm back to being "poor". I'm around 1.7 or 1.8m roubles, but my hideout is getting close to upgraded completely, so the majority of money I make now is not gonna be sunk into it anymore and I should build my wealth back up quickly.

What's with the matchmaking times during the night? Yesterday and tonight around 10PM I can't find a game on any map.

Re: Escape from Tarkov

They're having some server issues/are upgrading servers right now because of how popular the game has become. Was able to play almost all night until the past hour. The game has gotten a ridiculous influx of new players the past week thanks to the exposure on Twitch.

Lmao my buddy spawned with a lab blue key card as a scav and died to an exit camper. He was raging so hard

Re: Escape from Tarkov

The Water Collector level 3 and the Bitcoin farm are starting to print me money. And then when I burn the blue fuel tanks I just turn them into magazine boxes for another 300,000+ roubles. It's finally coming together.

My buddies and I have also started playing a bit more aggressive than we normally do, getting involved in more PVP, as well as wearing heavier gear and it has been a blast. First, going into Factory wearing a Vulkan-5 helmet with class 6 armour and an MP7 that shreds anything makes you feel invincible. Running into a hallway and taking down player scavs that have 0 chance to hurt you badly just about is both thrilling and addicting.

Running class 5 armour and helmets on the other maps and wiping out another squad of 3 in the dorms on Customs or an office room in Interchange is also thrilling and a big adrenaline rush.

We have had some good night. My buddy is up to 18 straight raids survived, my streak is only 8, but it would be about 18 as well, but I have a couple of run-throughs in there that killed my streak. Anyways, I went from being at 33% survival rate after doing the pistol kills quest over and over to now being back over 50% and just having a blast.

This game hits the spot DayZ used to and then some.

Re: Escape from Tarkov

I've been addicted to this game for the last week. Got myself up to about 2 million rubles selling just about everything I scavenge. I ended up spending most of it on a scav junkbox as I noticed some of my tasks require items I can only find in raids. I spend more time playing Tetris in my stash and selling than actually playing lol. Every time I finish, my scav timer is already clear or my pmc is just about ready.

Re: Escape from Tarkov

If you haven't been, upgrade your hideout, it is 100% worth it.

Re: Escape from Tarkov

Not much of a better feeling going in with a pump shotgun scav, no armor, no helmet, and coming out with only 3 kills total, all PMC's (28, 31, 43) and coming out with this LMAO

M1A with IR scope, Wendy helmet, Gen 5 tac rig, kitted VSS, and decked out silenced AK74N. That was a big payday for a lowly scav run lol

Only down side is the servers are garbage for teaming right now. Anything more than solo and the queues are 10+ min. Me and my buddy waited 21 min tonight for a Shoreline run and he called it because he was tired of waiting. I jumped in solo and the queue was like than 1 min.

They need to get this **** figured out fast, because it's become very annoying at this point. 4 to 5 days I can understand figuring out the issue. 3 weeks, well you are slipping and will lose what you have gained from the twitch event!

Re: Escape from Tarkov

I've been lucky with the servers. If theres 3 or less of us playing then we wait maybe 6 minutes tops. However, when we get our 4th or 5th on then some matches take 4 minutes, some take up to 12.

Re: Escape from Tarkov

Dominated on Interchange today. One round I killed 5 PMC's, obtained a sick MTR, and controlled the entire map. Last player to walk out. The next round, I took Killa down, 9MM AP6.3 doesn't play! Just remember, if you cross this guy be afraid LOL

Re: Escape from Tarkov

1 or 2 7N37's into your chest would probably do the trick. And the thermal will probably have me seeing you before you see me.
