man, i'd love to hear a direct comparison between delta force and this. not gameplay or game loop comparison, but things like: bugs/lack of bugs... server quality... drain on computer resources... and maybe some intangibles like quality of life differences, how confidently you can trust audio... and fps (fun per second lol) anywho great video sir i look forward to tuning into the next!
Same here. 4 raids filled with insane loot and each time I either crashed or the server deleted all progress as though the raid never happened. No thanks, maybe next time.
@@MintyLime703 it's unfortunate too i was looking forward to the wipe. It leaves a bad taste in the mouth. Especially after I lost all my trader rep last wipe too, for having the audacity to open arena.
@@danielferreira3573 it was pvp I survived my first 2(lost all progress), then died 4 times, and survived 2 more only to be lost again and I decided it was done till a patch gets put out.
My biggest gripe and the reason I don’t come back to Tarkov is that I’m sick of doing the same tasks over and over again, every single wipe. End up getting left behind if you don’t do them, and it’s such a chore at this point.
The single player emulator that shall not be named has over 100k players now. 1) The guys that do it spend weeks fixing the bugs. 2) Players can admit control their private server to achieve absolute QOL gaming experience. 3) It has unique content: more vendors, more quests, more weapons (M249 MG, unique mags, gear, etc.) And when you play alone, 0% cheater sprinting to head/eyes you 30 sec into a raid after a 8 min wait.
I think the hideout FIR change would be fine if when you died, the things in your secure container that you found in the raid…kept your found in raid status. This would be great for quest items too. So you could keep playing without fear of losing your quest item or hideout item.
for hideout, yes, but for quest items no that is ridiculous. the whole game is about risk, all the risk of finding a quest item and possibly losing it would be gone if they did that
I feel the hideout changes are unnecessary. The hidout was always meant as first a money sink and second as a method of quest and item progression separate from raiding. These hideout changes remove that in that first, the items that used to be the backbone of the economy (hoses, motors, tool sets) will now be worthless as we get to mid/late wipe. Either people will quit or be hard locked by items such as miliary power filters and not touch the hideout passed that point. Second and arguably, more importantly, it means that a bunch of quality of life crafts that were added in previous wipes are no longer available when you need them. It just makes the hideout superfluous.
@@billbaggins7355 I am not talking about this wipe specifically as these are long term problems the game has and it feels like they are only getting worse
can you even name what’s wrong with audio because I have no issues with audio when someone’s upstairs on the opposite side of the building I know when someone’s upstairs in a certain room I know which room it is I can tell exactly what direction they are on every single time. It’s never an issue for me so rather get a better headset or get better. Not one game you can name has better audio that is shooting or an extractor Cheaters have the last time I found a cheater was over seven months ago 😹😭 and i SHIT on him. Cheaters in this game are literally dog shit. Most of them are fucking clowns. Just go around trolling people. Performance yeah you definitely don’t play this game if you want performance because performance is not an issue whatsoever I have a pretty basic PC runs over 150 frames. My buddy has $1000 PC literally bottom line PC you can get he’s running 100 frames. Every single game, streets of tarkov he is running 80ish. absolutely bullshit, get the game THAN talk. And yes, I have 100% right an idea to talk on this. I probably have more hours than the guy that posted this video let alone on the game since it’s dropped.
honestly if the whole "hideout upgrades cant be not found in raid or bought off the market" is 10x worse because eventually your hideout upgrades will be HOURS if not DAYS long. on top of talking more time to find and get out of raid with the upgrades is gonna feel awful.
why? So what if it takes longer to upgrade your hideout, it's not like the game itself is fast paced in general. Everything in there takes long time, so with the hideout not being fully upgraded within like 2 weeks after the wipe it's just going to delay the late game, which is a somewhat healthy approach. Even though it would be more convenient to buy certain items like a sledgehammer on the flee for convenience, but with FIN for the hideout makes EFT more like a scavenger-looter game than just "make moneyz to buy stuff to upgrade fast". It's more immersive, which is something many players have forgotten about.
Best game, worst dev. The fact no one can rip it off and maintain the same feeling indicates it may just be beyond current technical limitations to actually achieve everything though.
Yeah I rode BSGs dick for a long time, but I’m getting pretty jaded. It’s the same shit every patch, and there’s nothing that really makes me excited to jump back in this wipe. Maybe I’ll play some, but I don’t know.
I'm in a very different position to you but am new to the game and am still learning the systems as a casual that picked up the game a couple of months ago. Lots of the complaints obviously don't make sense to me as I have no points of comparison. But for me it is a fun and unusual game that is incredibly tense even if it's buggy. Although, I die all the time anyway so the bugs don't make me feel like I'm losing much and I guess I am still assuming it will stabilise, which may be naive ...
I really dont feel like spending all that time finding all the FIR items for the hideout for them to wipe it from account in 6 months. IF they were not wiping, I would be all for everything needing to be FIR. But, I loved my hideout, it was already challenging to get (as casual), but now its going to be a waste of my time.
I was pretty excited when they announced prestige. I knew deep down it would require kappa but I wanted to remain hopeful that it wouldn’t, oh well. Sucks they use kappa as the baseline for their “endgame” when it’s literally an absolute nightmare to achieve. I’m all for the prestige requirements except for the kappa part, a very large part of the players will never prestige 1 time let alone 10.
dont know how people do it, I've tried to hard focus kappa several wipes already where I'll look up guides and have maps/wikis open every time I go into a raid and focus solely on doing kappa quests only to get insane burnout after completing all the snoreline quests and getting to the last few difficult/tedious quests like sbih (I dont like camping long sightlines) or the one where u need 3 pmc bolt action kills in a single woods raid or capturing outposts etc, not that I don't mind pvp quests as I love stirrup in factory and the 12 gauge ushanka paca task but I hate camping locations waiting for other players to show up so I always end up burning out right at the finish line
@@voidgivenfocus ive done it once but I dont plan on doing it again. Its basically gotta be ur only game/goal for the entire wipe. Assuming you even have enough time to play to get it all done before the game wipes, assuming they dont have wipes after full release then it will help and might not feel like such a race but it will still take a very long time. Idk, I think no kappa requirement is best for the whole of the playerbase but they dont really tend to care about people who arent playing their game like its a full time job so
Tbf, kappa is not endgame its 100% completion. With prestige being a thing to do for extremely unemployed. You literally get to wipe your character early.
the most major impact of requiring found in raid for hideout will be towards the general use of flea market, as now most barter items will not cost so much due to demand, but if they are used for vendor trades i.e. sicc container they might skyrocket since people stop casually picking up these items in their raids....
Was debating coming back this wipe but after queueing into my first raid I was reminded how long it takes to get into raid. As someone that has maybe an hour or two tops to play a day I just don’t want to spend all my free time sitting in queue. Looking past all of the bugs this wipe… that’s really what is stopping me. Hopefully one day bsg can address this issue.
@@t9xlive106 he is talking abt scaving i think, pmc raids are found in like a minute or so, scav raids can go to like 20 mins if its maps like lighthouse or streets.
I was playing ghosts of tabor(basically tarkov but in VR) a few days ago and even with only 300 ish players it takes only 20-30 secs to find and load into a raid. I don't understand why tarkov struggles with it when they have 100x the player count
the new audio is epicly good. I went 6 PMC kills before my first death.... all thanks to the sound. Before i thought it was OK, but whatever was changed, i love it The audio is 10x better imo. Playing this wipe after missing out last one. And i LOVE the hideout change! Actually having a real need to find shit loot is cool, No longer just bum rushing high tier loot, cramming it up your ass, then selling on flea, then buying all your hideout shit.
I agree with the audio change for some reason for me it’s amazing I can literally hear exactly where people are pushing down to the moment they are gonna turn a corner
I didn't mind the Flea not getting opened instantly, althrough I think 2 weeks is a tad too long. But that FIR requirement for Hideout, feels like going to far, as it undoubtly will stall progression for it, and will likely just mean a lot of usefull craft won't be unlocked, before moving past them.
The Hideout FiR requirement will definitely be removed. Don't worry about it, eraly wipe slowdown is a good idea but not like this. But at least they managed to get even fewer people playing their "Arena" so they've been nerfed (which is not a bad thing)
Since this update, I can't even run the game properly, performance was never worse, and loading is 1-5x times it won't load properly... lowest settings is a no go nowadays...
From a PvE player’s perspective: - Flea didn’t get touched on our side. - Hideout requiring FIR sucks for players new to this patch, and doesn’t affect the older players. Personally, the changes didn’t affect us too much, but I think FIR Hideout would be good to slow down the early wipe in PVP, but they should make it a limited time thing (ie, first month FIR only, then non-FIR).
I’ve said since flea started and will always say that the flea should not be a thing. Ever. It devalues the gameplay formula so much that people are literally not playing that game as intended and rushing to flea . If it has to be there to maintain player counts then make a community goal something that we all contribute and build in whats supposed to be an apocalyptic waste land, of sorts. Make it make sense
Yeah I do tho k the game would probably be a lot better without flea. It would be more of an actual survival game rather than a money making simulator.
Flea as it is was supposed to be a temporary mechanic. They've always said they wanted to move to in raid traders and flea market. That turned out to not be feasible so now we're stuck with this. Change is hard I guess
brother i fought a squad of 3 people armed with crumbling 50 durability ak74us and level 4 armors, all while scavs were picking our asses. it is trully a blast for me
Second raid of the wipe, i killed not ONLY knight (who previously had INSTANTLY killed me as soon as i was within view every single time) but the ENTIRE goon squad for the first time. Then i also saw partizan for the first time lol
I gotta admit after 1.8k hours this might be the wipe I stop. I am happy for everyone else that is enjoying it and I don't want to discourage them from having fun but this is getting ridiculous. I've been playing for 2 and a half wipes, I've been close to leaving many times. I know this game isn't meant to be fun, it's meant to be challenging and have the lowest of lows and highest of highs but not when you die to the stupidest shit that you have no control over (e.g. bad audio, bugs, hitreg straight up not working, cheaters). At this rate I might aswell leave, since I've enjoyed this game enough before this update I feel that I got my money's worth and it doesn't feel like BSG are planning on changing any of their strategies to actually improve the game. Below is a list of issues I've ran into this wipe (so far): The performance on maps dropped significantly, customs dropped the worst, I can barely run it on 50fps while before the update i was running it at 90+. Broke a leg and instantly got the double damage bug, died very quickly in a fight while trying to run away since my health dissapeared immediately. Died on woods and progress rolled back to before the raid. Streets flat out refuses to load me into a raid, gets to awaiting session start and then crashes the game. Server matchmaking is fucked but thats the least of the problems, and to be expected on wipe. Game constantly crashes while trying to matchmake, sometimes both for me and my duo at once. Audio is fucking terrible, I was excited to hear the new reverb but its a joke, outside it feels like walking around with a metal box around your PMC that reverbs any sound you make. Thank you for reading my rant
I've owned this game since 2016.. I gave up years ago, come in feel it out and dip. I haven't even put the launcher on my new travel desktop replacement. I got tired of being a Guinea pig..
@@reactcircaI stopped playing a while ago too but what’s up with everyone popping out of the woodworks to cry boohoohoo? It’s like everyone loves to come back and bitch all the time 😂
Went in as a duo on woods and multiple raids my duo was seeing scavs I could not see or hear. They can also shoot at you and kill you and you can never hear or see them. Ask me how I know
I keep getting a glitch where my pmc just randomly dies for no reason. It just happened twice in a row so now I don't want to play if my pmc is just going to die for no reason every raid.
The thing keeping me away from Tarkov in recent years has been the instability and inconsistencies, especially those surrounding Audio and general Performance. In my opinion you cannot have a good time playing a hardcore survival shooter with Broken / Inconsistent Audio and FPS / Latency / Desync issues, like at all. The issues with the economy, gear balance, progression speeds, etc. can all be forgiven in my opinion, those are sliders and are somewhat subjective to everybody's individual preferences. What I cannot excuse however are the terrible bugs and glitches that directly affect how we interact with the game, and I don't see that getting any better after so many years of it being aweful. I've held out hope for this game for so so long, but I don't even dare update the game anymore when it's full of garbage bugs and issues that have been there for years. Even without adding cheaters and inconsistent AI into the list, the game is simply too frustrating to interact with, let alone play for the hundreds of hours the devs want us to put into each wipe to see a semblance of progression. It's just sad.
Very well said. Tarkov isn't hardcore because of the mechanics. It's hardcore because so much of it is broken that you have to be an expert on navigating the brokenness to exploit other players.
Crashed almost every raid and sound just completely disappears mid match. Sound is probably one of the most important aspects in tarkov and every single wipe I’ve played they have “updated it” or “re worked it” aka breaking it for the first 2 months of a wipe when most people play.
It's been awesome seeing lvl15+ still running paca and basic kits this late into wipe... usually by this point most people I meet have tac30s and silencers
I personally love the FiR hideout changes. Makes the game way more interesting. Then again the most fun way I’ve ever played tarkov personally was SPT with a hardcore profile (no flea, traders, safe pouch, insurance, etc..). TBH the more hardcore the better, as long as everyone has to deal with it it’s good
honestly haven't had any big issues with bugs, had one audio reverb bug and my scav froze and couldnt move once, and thats it. audio is nice, the late flea is nice, the hideout fir requirement is kinda just bad.
AND honestly I think this audio is good I can finally hear directional audio is AMAZING RN for me … and I CAN FINALLY HEAR VERTICALLY AND DIRECTIONALLY I’ve never been able to hear people above or below me
not super on board with the whole FIR for hideout. What I would suggest is keep it as how it was before, but people are not allowed to put in on the flea
oh yea the reverb has some funny bugs, killed a scav on woods, in the sunken village, the entire fight sounded like I was inside a 500 ft wide metal sphere
After 3 wipes and almost 2k hours this wipe I was done after 4 games I Killed around 10 pmcs, and I died 2/4 raids. First time I was dragging an odolbos to my secure container I acccidentally double clicked and my pmc died from the new updated 25% chance to die when you take one. Who’s idea was that? All the bs I already have to go thru to survive a raid and bsg just actively makes more ways for me to die every single wipe. The raid after that killed 2 players and got the bug where ur pmc is stuck in 1 spot and any time u try and move ur game lags like crazy and u CAN NOT leave that spot even after disconnecting and reloading into the raid. I sat there prone for 10 minutes hoping it would let me move as a scav army kept spawning I killed 5 scavs while stuck in that one spot. After realizing this was 100% a bug and not my connection I pulled out a nade and ended it. That was raid number 4 and probably my last raid of the wipe.
Also as always instead of refining or improving the audio system they try some new shit thats worse every time!!! The new audio sounds like someone is running beside you or close to you ( the sound of your own footsteps) and if you’re playing in a duo or trio especially the audio is even worse. My fps is also noticeably worse… how? 150 for this joke of a game
The hideout changes will absolutely nuke the economy because so much of the market relies on hideout items. It will also make it borderline impossible to do anything with your hideout as there isn't enough loot on the map to reasonably progress with your hideout. This will also probably kill pvp similar to the FIR system but perhaps even worse given how vital the hideout is and shove every standard player a further 6ft under. I'm fine if tarkov moves away from acquiring massive heaps of loot and focuses on the survival aspect but the change blocks anyone besides those who have enough time to get items for the hideout from using it altogether. Not to mention with the more randomized loot pools it makes it hard to focus on getting specific types of items. Especially hideout items.
@@EdwardKenwayIV yeah that makes sense, but this would make hideout progression practically untenable for the Majority, let alone the people who don't have much free time.
@@MorInfantryeh? Just go customs or streets and hit tech spawns like crates, toolboxes, pc's, cabinets etc. You can get the items needed for lvl 1-2 production facilities decently fast. It just feels like a bunch of people can't adapt to change and just keep running the same loot runs as before to maximize ruble value without understanding that they don't have anything to spend those bills on.
@@balinthehater8205 I'd argue reserve would better serve getting a hold of technical items, but what I mean is that most (50-75%) of loot on the map isn't hideout items, and with the randomized loot spawns in crates its going to be hard to make decent progression, and it would basically force people to extract once they have a specific item, which is brought up in the video. I just think this change wasn't fully thought out when it comes to progression and gameplay dynamics. I don't like the roublemaxxing meta either when it comes to loot, but this is effectively a flea ban on hideout items.
First time for me that a wipe is litterally unplayable I can only scav on factory or I get connectiont with server lost I also got huge performing issues I cant reach 60 fps on custom I was able to previous wipe
I wasn't even gonna play PVP this wipe and only do PVE, but the no flea/FIR hideout got me. I've been absolutely loving it. I never play on wipeday and I always wait till the 2nd day because everytime there's major issues. It has been really enjoyable, only problem for me is the weird audio and stutters/lag/whatever
To me it has been a good experience, not too many bugs, audio is different and needs some work, flea after 2 weeks is good in my opinion but the FIR hideout is not that much. Recoil is no different from before. We'll see how it progress
The found in raid change i HATE as a casual player. At the very least last wipe, i could focus on quests and getting to lev 15 and figure out everything with the flea. Now its quests, leveling AND looting, which ends up being pointless if im killed. Since i often times dont have enough time when playing for more than 2 good raids, a single death now can mean the hour or two i have to get any progress, was completely wasted, and that really shuts me off of playing the game.
@@StepSisRUstuckbarely anyone is going to be playing this game after a few weeks after wipe, so might as well beat everyone to the punch and just stop now. There're way too many great games nowadays to waste my time with this game anymore
They update the visuals on all the items in the game? Pausing the video at all the times you had your inventory open some of the images for things like salewas, vodka, the mask they all look different and more “crispy” texture wise? May be trippin
For the hideout stuff if BSG doesn't want us just buying the stuff on the flea market for it they could just put a "Hideout FIR" tag on them that does not expire when you die. We could still die with them in the secure container but not be able to sell them on the flea market, but still use them in the hideout. I don't 100% like this, but at least people will have to make a choice what they want to keep in their secure container (pure money makers, ammo, or Hideout FIR) and can get out with a few items now and then even if they die. There is always that one item you need, or cannot find in dozens of raids, and it sucks to die with it and it totally be unusable for hideout building. And it sucks that apparently this affects PVE too...
So I waited til day2 of the wipe. I ran woods and spawned in only to be assaulted by the goons 20 feet behind me in the first 8 seconds of the raid. Then I was glitched out into a wall the next raid after wiping customs dorms. Then I crashed about 3 other times that same day and then died to a guy I couldn't hear blasting his way through a stairwell on ground zero. So all in all I've had two successful raids out of the ten total I ran and all but two deaths were from something completely out of my control. The short answer is 'No, you should not come back to this wipe.'
I don't like the found in raid for hideout upgrades..... however..... it does make your Scav raids WAY more important! Make use of your scavs people!!!!
Its healthier for the game that people have some sense of purpose to play for, instead of buying all off the flea. I know thta some ppl dont have time for the game but again - its not games fault. You cant expect to put different amount of time compared to others and expect same results. It doesnt work like that. Or at least, it shouldnt.
why the hell would they require hideout upgrade items to be FIR? That just tank'd so many item's resale value as well as makes it significantly more difficult to get what we need to do the upgrades too. I might check this wipe out but I dont suspect I'll be sticking around with all these bugs. Such a shame, almost had a good thing going with last wipe but its like they lost sight and shot themselves in the foot again...
I am all for the FIR for hideout change. The flea market is the biggest factor that influences this game. The game always becomes a "different" game after you gain access to the flea. This change makes the game stay that search for specific items game instead of just becoming a Ruble chaser. Example: I do not need to find a car battery and compete in game for the spots they are known to spawn, I just need to fill my back pack with the best items to sell and then buy that battery on the flea market. Money, the way the game was before the change was just too easy to come by and not a challenge at all. Most players can just Scav grind and become Millionaires and buy whatever they want. The ONLY change I might suggest is that items in your secure container maintain the FIR status, that might help out casuals (like myself). I always wanted to do away completely with the flea, but this change is good, IMO.
Appreciate an actually edited video based on personal experience with the wipe instead of just another long winded patch notes read-a-long. Question: If you're playing Khorovod on PvP mode does it actually spawn other Player PMCs not attempting Khorovod onto the map? I keep seeing conflicting comments from people, some saying yes you have to fight other actual players in Khorovod PvP mode and others saying no, it's all AI PMCs.
Haven't play for the past two wipes and the single player was getting boring. I'll probably check back in next wipe though. (I got a backlog of games that needs to be played, plus the winter steam sale keeps adding to it)
PvE has some bugs but its fine. Did the new event in a group of 5 twice. No new recoil noticed here either. Audio bugs are 1/10 raids, but usually not a big deal. They fixed lightkeeper's quest line, so I can play end game now 😊. Im happy with the customs additions! QoL stuff is great! The priority window is crazy awesome.
if they really want to extend progression they need to just remove the flea entirely or make it a late game upgrade locked behind intel 2 or 3 or the scav case.
I love the no flea and the hideout change. However, FIR is outdated. Let the stuff we die with be FIR. This will make the hideout change feel more interactive and less punishing. It also will make the fetch quests more fun rather than stressful.
PMC Karma killed the game for me if it ain't out I wont even look at the game. If they made it where you only got dinged for camping extract I think it would be fine but sniping and playing slow was ruined..
I’ve been getting really bad stutters and the 99% bug when playing on ground zero, pretty much unplayable atm. Sucks cause I just upgraded my pc and I can’t even play my favorite game. I’ll be on Helldivers until they fix the bugs
99% bug was only on Ground Zero for me but I could load into other maps. Increased my pagefile and was able to load on Ground Zero. Good luck out there.
Best wipe IMO stability wise. About 19 hours this wipe and thankfully haven’t seen any bugs yet personally. Game also seems smoother on my rig. Cmon guys day one wipe and I was getting sub 2 minute matching times. That’s unheard of lol usually the first two weeks are trash for matching and stability. Wouldn’t say audio is perfect but definitely better. Recoil isnt reworked it was camera recoil that was. It doesn’t feel like I’m chewing on my own forehead shooting a shotgun anymore. I know the first hours of the first day were rough with the rollbacks but it was fixed within the first day, atleast we didn’t play for a week and that happenes.
This has been my favorite wipe so far. The progression feels miles better. I have not had any bugs besides on customs. Normally I would always consider stopping playing from bugs and I would see all the streamers play with 0 problems but now it's the exact opposite.
I bet the presitge system wont change much. Most will just wait until the end of wipe to prestige to make sure they get the benefits without the sacrifices....
They FIR requirements for the hide out should have been picked and chosen based on what part of the hideout it was. Should I need all FIR to build the rest station? Probably not. Should I need all FIR to build the bitcoin farm? Probably yes. Can even use the "oh this requires brand new components" angle to justify needed all FIR for the more high tech parts of the hideout.
Have you checked out the new Tarkov patch yet? What are your thoughts on it so far?
yo jesse send a laptop and i’ll stream with you lol jk jk i dont have room for a pc need a laptop dog
Most fun I’ve had in a long time!
A buddy and I can't play together... every time we load in, he gets an error and the game crashes. It's been that way since the wipe started.

ill gladly prove it as well:)
My biggest gripe and the reason I don’t come back to Tarkov is that I’m sick of doing the same tasks over and over again, every single wipe. End up getting left behind if you don’t do them, and it’s such a chore at this point.
Yeah brother the thrill is gone
Same, but try this wipe because early wipe feels stays longer.
seriously nobody wants to stash food and fond the same items for literally years at this point. I really hate the wiping of all the progression.
they need to add 10-20 new early wipe tasks and just cycle through them every wipe
The single player emulator that shall not be named has over 100k players now.
1) The guys that do it spend weeks fixing the bugs.
2) Players can admit control their private server to achieve absolute QOL gaming experience.
3) It has unique content: more vendors, more quests, more weapons (M249 MG, unique mags, gear, etc.)
And when you play alone, 0% cheater sprinting to head/eyes you 30 sec into a raid after a 8 min wait.
I think the hideout FIR change would be fine if when you died, the things in your secure container that you found in the raid…kept your found in raid status. This would be great for quest items too. So you could keep playing without fear of losing your quest item or hideout item.
That ruins the purpose of fir, nah. Makes fights more stressful and fun. Pressure to get out with that toothpaste, etc. been great

@@darwinnocap2386 FIR is a bad system tbh
Filthy casual begone!

I feel the hideout changes are unnecessary. The hidout was always meant as first a money sink and second as a method of quest and item progression separate from raiding. These hideout changes remove that in that first, the items that used to be the backbone of the economy (hoses, motors, tool sets) will now be worthless as we get to mid/late wipe. Either people will quit or be hard locked by items such as miliary power filters and not touch the hideout passed that point. Second and arguably, more importantly, it means that a bunch of quality of life crafts that were added in previous wipes are no longer available when you need them. It just makes the hideout superfluous.
Tbf, they did touch up the loot table, been finding a bunch of mil power filters and tank batteries on woods.
0:45 to be clear they only reverted flea, but not the accounts of people who bought items. If you got access you kept the items

They should focus on Audio, cheaters and performance
Cheaters aren't even in the game yet as none of the cheating software has updated to the current game yet.
@@billbaggins7355i beg to differ
@@billbaggins7355 I am not talking about this wipe specifically as these are long term problems the game has and it feels like they are only getting worse
can you even name what’s wrong with audio because I have no issues with audio when someone’s upstairs on the opposite side of the building I know when someone’s upstairs in a certain room I know which room it is I can tell exactly what direction they are on every single time. It’s never an issue for me so rather get a better headset or get better.
Not one game you can name has better audio that is shooting or an extractor
Cheaters have the last time I found a cheater was over seven months ago 😹😭 and i SHIT on him.
Cheaters in this game are literally dog shit. Most of them are fucking clowns. Just go around trolling people.
Performance yeah you definitely don’t play this game if you want performance because performance is not an issue whatsoever I have a pretty basic PC runs over 150 frames. My buddy has $1000 PC literally bottom line PC you can get he’s running 100 frames. Every single game, streets of tarkov he is running 80ish.
absolutely bullshit, get the game THAN talk.
And yes, I have 100% right an idea to talk on this. I probably have more hours than the guy that posted this video let alone on the game since it’s dropped.
@@billbaggins7355 Tell that to the guy who killed me and the rest of reserve in 15 seconds and than died to this own nade...
honestly if the whole "hideout upgrades cant be not found in raid or bought off the market" is 10x worse because eventually your hideout upgrades will be HOURS if not DAYS long. on top of talking more time to find and get out of raid with the upgrades is gonna feel awful.
why? So what if it takes longer to upgrade your hideout, it's not like the game itself is fast paced in general. Everything in there takes long time, so with the hideout not being fully upgraded within like 2 weeks after the wipe it's just going to delay the late game, which is a somewhat healthy approach.
Even though it would be more convenient to buy certain items like a sledgehammer on the flee for convenience, but with FIN for the hideout makes EFT more like a scavenger-looter game than just "make moneyz to buy stuff to upgrade fast". It's more immersive, which is something many players have forgotten about.
i dislike it to it's going to keep me from workbench lvl 2 for the entire wipe again xD

I'm in a very different position to you but am new to the game and am still learning the systems as a casual that picked up the game a couple of months ago. Lots of the complaints obviously don't make sense to me as I have no points of comparison. But for me it is a fun and unusual game that is incredibly tense even if it's buggy.
Although, I die all the time anyway so the bugs don't make me feel like I'm losing much and I guess I am still assuming it will stabilise, which may be naive ...
I really dont feel like spending all that time finding all the FIR items for the hideout for them to wipe it from account in 6 months. IF they were not wiping, I would be all for everything needing to be FIR. But, I loved my hideout, it was already challenging to get (as casual), but now its going to be a waste of my time.
I was pretty excited when they announced prestige. I knew deep down it would require kappa but I wanted to remain hopeful that it wouldn’t, oh well. Sucks they use kappa as the baseline for their “endgame” when it’s literally an absolute nightmare to achieve. I’m all for the prestige requirements except for the kappa part, a very large part of the players will never prestige 1 time let alone 10.
Unemployed players will
dont know how people do it, I've tried to hard focus kappa several wipes already where I'll look up guides and have maps/wikis open every time I go into a raid and focus solely on doing kappa quests only to get insane burnout after completing all the snoreline quests and getting to the last few difficult/tedious quests like sbih (I dont like camping long sightlines) or the one where u need 3 pmc bolt action kills in a single woods raid or capturing outposts etc, not that I don't mind pvp quests as I love stirrup in factory and the 12 gauge ushanka paca task but I hate camping locations waiting for other players to show up so I always end up burning out right at the finish line
@@voidgivenfocus ive done it once but I dont plan on doing it again. Its basically gotta be ur only game/goal for the entire wipe. Assuming you even have enough time to play to get it all done before the game wipes, assuming they dont have wipes after full release then it will help and might not feel like such a race but it will still take a very long time. Idk, I think no kappa requirement is best for the whole of the playerbase but they dont really tend to care about people who arent playing their game like its a full time job so
wait what kappa is needed for prestige?
Tbf, kappa is not endgame its 100% completion. With prestige being a thing to do for extremely unemployed. You literally get to wipe your character early.
Came back after not playing the last 3 wipes, having fun so far, new customs is great
best wipe for a long time. slow progression feels so good. finally not lvl 25 after 1 day and hideout finished after 4 days and then boring
the most major impact of requiring found in raid for hideout will be towards the general use of flea market, as now most barter items will not cost so much due to demand, but if they are used for vendor trades i.e. sicc container they might skyrocket since people stop casually picking up these items in their raids....
Was debating coming back this wipe but after queueing into my first raid I was reminded how long it takes to get into raid. As someone that has maybe an hour or two tops to play a day I just don’t want to spend all my free time sitting in queue. Looking past all of the bugs this wipe… that’s really what is stopping me. Hopefully one day bsg can address this issue.
I have yet to get a queue longer than 3 mins , I shit you not
I switched my servers to only US tho
@@t9xlive106 he is talking abt scaving i think, pmc raids are found in like a minute or so, scav raids can go to like 20 mins if its maps like lighthouse or streets.
I was playing ghosts of tabor(basically tarkov but in VR) a few days ago and even with only 300 ish players it takes only 20-30 secs to find and load into a raid. I don't understand why tarkov struggles with it when they have 100x the player count
went from 100-120 fps customs to constant 50 with stutters around new areas

The audio is 10x better imo.

And i LOVE the hideout change! Actually having a real need to find shit loot is cool, No longer just bum rushing high tier loot, cramming it up your ass, then selling on flea, then buying all your hideout shit.

As an okay ish player the sheer amount of new players has leveled the pvp scene for casual players and I am not dying as much
I didn't mind the Flea not getting opened instantly, althrough I think 2 weeks is a tad too long. But that FIR requirement for Hideout, feels like going to far, as it undoubtly will stall progression for it, and will likely just mean a lot of usefull craft won't be unlocked, before moving past them.
The Hideout FiR requirement will definitely be removed. Don't worry about it, eraly wipe slowdown is a good idea but not like this. But at least they managed to get even fewer people playing their "Arena" so they've been nerfed (which is not a bad thing)
Since this update, I can't even run the game properly, performance was never worse, and loading is 1-5x times it won't load properly... lowest settings is a no go nowadays...
From a PvE player’s perspective:
- Flea didn’t get touched on our side.
- Hideout requiring FIR sucks for players new to this patch, and doesn’t affect the older players.
Personally, the changes didn’t affect us too much, but I think FIR Hideout would be good to slow down the early wipe in PVP, but they should make it a limited time thing (ie, first month FIR only, then non-FIR).
Have they fixed boss spawns yet or are the goons spawning at 99% of the time on all maps?
I left pve to grind pvp thulis wipe, just for the hell of it.
I’ve said since flea started and will always say that the flea should not be a thing. Ever. It devalues the gameplay formula so much that people are literally not playing that game as intended and rushing to flea .
If it has to be there to maintain player counts then make a community goal something that we all contribute and build in whats supposed to be an apocalyptic waste land, of sorts. Make it make sense
Yeah I do tho k the game would probably be a lot better without flea. It would be more of an actual survival game rather than a money making simulator.
Flea as it is was supposed to be a temporary mechanic. They've always said they wanted to move to in raid traders and flea market. That turned out to not be feasible so now we're stuck with this. Change is hard I guess
Good to see you again Jesse! Looking forward to playing this wipe after a 2 wipe hiatus. lol
brother i fought a squad of 3 people armed with crumbling 50 durability ak74us and level 4 armors, all while scavs were picking our asses. it is trully a blast for me
Second raid of the wipe, i killed not ONLY knight (who previously had INSTANTLY killed me as soon as i was within view every single time) but the ENTIRE goon squad for the first time. Then i also saw partizan for the first time lol
I can only tell a difference with recoil when I'm using a scope. It shakes a bit when you're shooting.
When you move as slow as you do with crouch waking it should be quiet unless you have the good headphones on your PMC
I gotta admit after 1.8k hours this might be the wipe I stop. I am happy for everyone else that is enjoying it and I don't want to discourage them from having fun but this is getting ridiculous.
I've been playing for 2 and a half wipes, I've been close to leaving many times. I know this game isn't meant to be fun, it's meant to be challenging and have the lowest of lows and highest of highs but not when you die to the stupidest shit that you have no control over (e.g. bad audio, bugs, hitreg straight up not working, cheaters). At this rate I might aswell leave, since I've enjoyed this game enough before this update I feel that I got my money's worth and it doesn't feel like BSG are planning on changing any of their strategies to actually improve the game.
Below is a list of issues I've ran into this wipe (so far):
The performance on maps dropped significantly, customs dropped the worst, I can barely run it on 50fps while before the update i was running it at 90+.
Broke a leg and instantly got the double damage bug, died very quickly in a fight while trying to run away since my health dissapeared immediately.
Died on woods and progress rolled back to before the raid.
Streets flat out refuses to load me into a raid, gets to awaiting session start and then crashes the game.
Server matchmaking is fucked but thats the least of the problems, and to be expected on wipe.
Game constantly crashes while trying to matchmake, sometimes both for me and my duo at once.
Audio is fucking terrible, I was excited to hear the new reverb but its a joke, outside it feels like walking around with a metal box around your PMC that reverbs any sound you make.
Thank you for reading my rant
I've owned this game since 2016.. I gave up years ago, come in feel it out and dip. I haven't even put the launcher on my new travel desktop replacement. I got tired of being a Guinea pig..
@@reactcircaI stopped playing a while ago too but what’s up with everyone popping out of the woodworks to cry boohoohoo? It’s like everyone loves to come back and bitch all the time 😂
Has anyone had issues with their audio either becoming muffled in raid, or their audio being outright disabled mid raid?
Went in as a duo on woods and multiple raids my duo was seeing scavs I could not see or hear. They can also shoot at you and kill you and you can never hear or see them. Ask me how I know
I keep getting a glitch where my pmc just randomly dies for no reason. It just happened twice in a row so now I don't want to play if my pmc is just going to die for no reason every raid.
The thing keeping me away from Tarkov in recent years has been the instability and inconsistencies, especially those surrounding Audio and general Performance. In my opinion you cannot have a good time playing a hardcore survival shooter with Broken / Inconsistent Audio and FPS / Latency / Desync issues, like at all. The issues with the economy, gear balance, progression speeds, etc. can all be forgiven in my opinion, those are sliders and are somewhat subjective to everybody's individual preferences. What I cannot excuse however are the terrible bugs and glitches that directly affect how we interact with the game, and I don't see that getting any better after so many years of it being aweful. I've held out hope for this game for so so long, but I don't even dare update the game anymore when it's full of garbage bugs and issues that have been there for years. Even without adding cheaters and inconsistent AI into the list, the game is simply too frustrating to interact with, let alone play for the hundreds of hours the devs want us to put into each wipe to see a semblance of progression. It's just sad.
Very well said. Tarkov isn't hardcore because of the mechanics. It's hardcore because so much of it is broken that you have to be an expert on navigating the brokenness to exploit other players.
4:07 ~70fps on Customs indoors? Nah. I'm not touching this game until optimization.. I don't even want imagine how it's on Streets or Lighthouse
Found in raid for hideout upgrades is huge, i love it, i might start playing again only for that feature
Game feels really smooth
I uninstalled after failing to join a raid 25 out of 30 times due to crashes and sever connection lost errors and wasting like 10 minutes each time
Crashed almost every raid and sound just completely disappears mid match. Sound is probably one of the most important aspects in tarkov and every single wipe I’ve played they have “updated it” or “re worked it” aka breaking it for the first 2 months of a wipe when most people play.
It's been awesome seeing lvl15+ still running paca and basic kits this late into wipe... usually by this point most people I meet have tac30s and silencers
I personally love the FiR hideout changes. Makes the game way more interesting. Then again the most fun way I’ve ever played tarkov personally was SPT with a hardcore profile (no flea, traders, safe pouch, insurance, etc..). TBH the more hardcore the better, as long as everyone has to deal with it it’s good
i tried accessing the BTR questline in PVE as level 60, did not show up for me
honestly haven't had any big issues with bugs, had one audio reverb bug and my scav froze and couldnt move once, and thats it. audio is nice, the late flea is nice, the hideout fir requirement is kinda just bad.
AND honestly I think this audio is good I can finally hear directional audio is AMAZING RN for me … and I CAN FINALLY HEAR VERTICALLY AND DIRECTIONALLY I’ve never been able to hear people above or below me
not super on board with the whole FIR for hideout. What I would suggest is keep it as how it was before, but people are not allowed to put in on the flea
oh yea the reverb has some funny bugs, killed a scav on woods, in the sunken village, the entire fight sounded like I was inside a 500 ft wide metal sphere
After 3 wipes and almost 2k hours this wipe I was done after 4 games I Killed around 10 pmcs, and I died 2/4 raids. First time I was dragging an odolbos to my secure container I acccidentally double clicked and my pmc died from the new updated 25% chance to die when you take one. Who’s idea was that? All the bs I already have to go thru to survive a raid and bsg just actively makes more ways for me to die every single wipe. The raid after that killed 2 players and got the bug where ur pmc is stuck in 1 spot and any time u try and move ur game lags like crazy and u CAN NOT leave that spot even after disconnecting and reloading into the raid. I sat there prone for 10 minutes hoping it would let me move as a scav army kept spawning I killed 5 scavs while stuck in that one spot. After realizing this was 100% a bug and not my connection I pulled out a nade and ended it. That was raid number 4 and probably my last raid of the wipe.
Also as always instead of refining or improving the audio system they try some new shit thats worse every time!!! The new audio sounds like someone is running beside you or close to you ( the sound of your own footsteps) and if you’re playing in a duo or trio especially the audio is even worse. My fps is also noticeably worse… how? 150 for this joke of a game
I reckon that the fir hideout stuff is obly temp to slow progress
The hideout changes will absolutely nuke the economy because so much of the market relies on hideout items. It will also make it borderline impossible to do anything with your hideout as there isn't enough loot on the map to reasonably progress with your hideout. This will also probably kill pvp similar to the FIR system but perhaps even worse given how vital the hideout is and shove every standard player a further 6ft under. I'm fine if tarkov moves away from acquiring massive heaps of loot and focuses on the survival aspect but the change blocks anyone besides those who have enough time to get items for the hideout from using it altogether. Not to mention with the more randomized loot pools it makes it hard to focus on getting specific types of items. Especially hideout items.
Not everyone deserves to use everything. Some stuff will be unobtainable to players with no free time. ON ALL VIDEO GAMES.
@@EdwardKenwayIV yeah that makes sense, but this would make hideout progression practically untenable for the Majority, let alone the people who don't have much free time.
@@MorInfantryeh? Just go customs or streets and hit tech spawns like crates, toolboxes, pc's, cabinets etc. You can get the items needed for lvl 1-2 production facilities decently fast.
It just feels like a bunch of people can't adapt to change and just keep running the same loot runs as before to maximize ruble value without understanding that they don't have anything to spend those bills on.
@@balinthehater8205 I'd argue reserve would better serve getting a hold of technical items, but what I mean is that most (50-75%) of loot on the map isn't hideout items, and with the randomized loot spawns in crates its going to be hard to make decent progression, and it would basically force people to extract once they have a specific item, which is brought up in the video. I just think this change wasn't fully thought out when it comes to progression and gameplay dynamics. I don't like the roublemaxxing meta either when it comes to loot, but this is effectively a flea ban on hideout items.
Is that supposed to be a bad thing? Bolts and other random items were just artificially inflated before anyway
Hopefully the fir hideout gets changed to a timelock thing in step with flea
I didn't see customs not loading in that list of things they are working on :(
First time for me that a wipe is litterally unplayable I can only scav on factory or I get connectiont with server lost I also got huge performing issues I cant reach 60 fps on custom I was able to previous wipe
I wasn't even gonna play PVP this wipe and only do PVE, but the no flea/FIR hideout got me. I've been absolutely loving it.
I never play on wipeday and I always wait till the 2nd day because everytime there's major issues. It has been really enjoyable, only problem for me is the weird audio and stutters/lag/whatever
I love this wipe so far as a 5000 hour player
To me it has been a good experience, not too many bugs, audio is different and needs some work, flea after 2 weeks is good in my opinion but the FIR hideout is not that much.
Recoil is no different from before.
We'll see how it progress
No flea feels good. Less people with their comfortable guns. More scrappy and feels like building weapons is far more valuable
I killed a level 17 still using a paca and a scav PP-19. I don't think you would ever see that in previous wipes.
The found in raid change i HATE as a casual player. At the very least last wipe, i could focus on quests and getting to lev 15 and figure out everything with the flea. Now its quests, leveling AND looting, which ends up being pointless if im killed. Since i often times dont have enough time when playing for more than 2 good raids, a single death now can mean the hour or two i have to get any progress, was completely wasted, and that really shuts me off of playing the game.
Haven't played since lighthouse got added. But watching you and sealable giving me that itch. And customs looks dope
Waited 10 minutes searching for a lighthouse match before i uninstalled again. Im not going back to this mess
The game literally just wiped 😂 no1 playing lighthouse 😂🤦🤡

Couldn't load in got the 99 crash.
They update the visuals on all the items in the game? Pausing the video at all the times you had your inventory open some of the images for things like salewas, vodka, the mask they all look different and more “crispy” texture wise? May be trippin
Que times have been amazing this early wipe. Rarely does it take longer than 3-4 mins.
For the hideout stuff if BSG doesn't want us just buying the stuff on the flea market for it they could just put a "Hideout FIR" tag on them that does not expire when you die. We could still die with them in the secure container but not be able to sell them on the flea market, but still use them in the hideout.
I don't 100% like this, but at least people will have to make a choice what they want to keep in their secure container (pure money makers, ammo, or Hideout FIR) and can get out with a few items now and then even if they die. There is always that one item you need, or cannot find in dozens of raids, and it sucks to die with it and it totally be unusable for hideout building.
And it sucks that apparently this affects PVE too...
So I waited til day2 of the wipe. I ran woods and spawned in only to be assaulted by the goons 20 feet behind me in the first 8 seconds of the raid. Then I was glitched out into a wall the next raid after wiping customs dorms. Then I crashed about 3 other times that same day and then died to a guy I couldn't hear blasting his way through a stairwell on ground zero. So all in all I've had two successful raids out of the ten total I ran and all but two deaths were from something completely out of my control.
The short answer is 'No, you should not come back to this wipe.'
I don't like the found in raid for hideout upgrades..... however..... it does make your Scav raids WAY more important! Make use of your scavs people!!!!
So I'm on PVE and the flea market is open for me at level 7. I did a profile reset on my pve account.
Flea market and Found in Raid doesnt hurt the hardcore vets. it only hurts the Timmies and casuals. Hardcore is joke to players like Pestily and Sheef
That’s what the hardcore players want though. They want to keep pushing the casual players farther and farther behind.
Who would have thought that game intended to be hardcore is requiring you spend time on it. Maybe its not for you after all my friend?
Its healthier for the game that people have some sense of purpose to play for, instead of buying all off the flea. I know thta some ppl dont have time for the game but again - its not games fault. You cant expect to put different amount of time compared to others and expect same results. It doesnt work like that. Or at least, it shouldnt.
@@lostinapathy6640 so hardcore I can get kappa in 2-3 weeks every wipe.
@@brennancondon3357 woah you re such a g dude, wish I could be cool like you
why the hell would they require hideout upgrade items to be FIR? That just tank'd so many item's resale value as well as makes it significantly more difficult to get what we need to do the upgrades too. I might check this wipe out but I dont suspect I'll be sticking around with all these bugs. Such a shame, almost had a good thing going with last wipe but its like they lost sight and shot themselves in the foot again...
I am all for the FIR for hideout change. The flea market is the biggest factor that influences this game. The game always becomes a "different" game after you gain access to the flea. This change makes the game stay that search for specific items game instead of just becoming a Ruble chaser. Example: I do not need to find a car battery and compete in game for the spots they are known to spawn, I just need to fill my back pack with the best items to sell and then buy that battery on the flea market. Money, the way the game was before the change was just too easy to come by and not a challenge at all. Most players can just Scav grind and become Millionaires and buy whatever they want. The ONLY change I might suggest is that items in your secure container maintain the FIR status, that might help out casuals (like myself). I always wanted to do away completely with the flea, but this change is good, IMO.
Appreciate an actually edited video based on personal experience with the wipe instead of just another long winded patch notes read-a-long. Question: If you're playing Khorovod on PvP mode does it actually spawn other Player PMCs not attempting Khorovod onto the map? I keep seeing conflicting comments from people, some saying yes you have to fight other actual players in Khorovod PvP mode and others saying no, it's all AI PMCs.
Haven't play for the past two wipes and the single player was getting boring. I'll probably check back in next wipe though. (I got a backlog of games that needs to be played, plus the winter steam sale keeps adding to it)
PvE has some bugs but its fine. Did the new event in a group of 5 twice.
No new recoil noticed here either.
Audio bugs are 1/10 raids, but usually not a big deal.
They fixed lightkeeper's quest line, so I can play end game now 😊.
Im happy with the customs additions!
QoL stuff is great! The priority window is crazy awesome.
will the prestige reset your gear as well as your level ?
What are your thoughts on the Gray Zone Warfare wipe?
if they really want to extend progression they need to just remove the flea entirely or make it a late game upgrade locked behind intel 2 or 3 or the scav case.
I love the no flea and the hideout change. However, FIR is outdated. Let the stuff we die with be FIR. This will make the hideout change feel more interactive and less punishing. It also will make the fetch quests more fun rather than stressful.
the Flea rollback didn't touch PVE btw, it's all still there.
PMC Karma killed the game for me if it ain't out I wont even look at the game. If they made it where you only got dinged for camping extract I think it would be fine but sniping and playing slow was ruined..
WE NEED DEM PATCHES ASAP
I’ve been getting really bad stutters and the 99% bug when playing on ground zero, pretty much unplayable atm. Sucks cause I just upgraded my pc and I can’t even play my favorite game. I’ll be on Helldivers until they fix the bugs
Old bunker doesn’t work on Shoreline
That noise in the pestily clip is bullets that hit him. It only happens when he takes a hit. You can watch the character health in the top left.
99% bug was only on Ground Zero for me but I could load into other maps. Increased my pagefile and was able to load on Ground Zero. Good luck out there.
Best wipe IMO stability wise. About 19 hours this wipe and thankfully haven’t seen any bugs yet personally. Game also seems smoother on my rig.
Cmon guys day one wipe and I was getting sub 2 minute matching times. That’s unheard of lol usually the first two weeks are trash for matching and stability.
Wouldn’t say audio is perfect but definitely better.
Recoil isnt reworked it was camera recoil that was. It doesn’t feel like I’m chewing on my own forehead shooting a shotgun anymore.
I know the first hours of the first day were rough with the rollbacks but it was fixed within the first day, atleast we didn’t play for a week and that happenes.
This has been my favorite wipe so far. The progression feels miles better. I have not had any bugs besides on customs. Normally I would always consider stopping playing from bugs and I would see all the streamers play with 0 problems but now it's the exact opposite.
My first 3 raids didn't count at all. It just reset everytime. Audio real bad. That's enough tarkov for a season
My only 2 issues are dead lobby’s and rubber banding like crazy
I have had some crazy laggy slow motion issue where I cant move normally, I uploaded a clip of it on my channel
I’ve played with roughly 100 people over the past 5 years. Not a single one of them is playing this wipe, unfortunately
Certain items should be FIR
I bet the presitge system wont change much. Most will just wait until the end of wipe to prestige to make sure they get the benefits without the sacrifices....
Biggest issue for me is the massive drop in performance…. 20-30 less fps than before.
10 years of development got us here.
They FIR requirements for the hide out should have been picked and chosen based on what part of the hideout it was. Should I need all FIR to build the rest station? Probably not. Should I need all FIR to build the bitcoin farm? Probably yes. Can even use the "oh this requires brand new components" angle to justify needed all FIR for the more high tech parts of the hideout.
Can I still buy gpus tho since it’s for the bitcoin farm?
Started last wipe first ever, this wipe already feels better idk if it’s just the snow or my ass not taking 50 raids to do the go tasks
Ground zero not go
The snow makes it impossible to play my frames are trashed
