Kind of off topic, but one of the most popular modders for SPT, SolarInt (who created the massive AI overhaul SAIN), is actually hired by the team behind Incursion Red River to upgrade their enemy AI behavior!

Apparently he called BSG and never heard anything back - their loss XD

It would probably be cheaper and easier to buy the cheapest copy of EFT and mod it with SPT and FIKA co-op compared to paying full price for battlefield and having to mod that INTO tarkov.

GZW has a much less compelling setting and world building for me at least.

Maybe it’s my particular setup - I use Pterodactyl Panel to manage docker environments - but I remember repeatedly banging my head against the proverbial wall trying to get it to work, quitting after 3 days.

Because of matchmaking and certain decisions the Devs have made (no post-raid review), it’s very hard to accurately report cheaters or verify if you got killed by one. Due to this, many people prefer playing PVE (so you can experience the current game content without meddling humans), or modded CO-OP/single player with a mod like SPT.

Considering that the cheapest copy of the game is 30-40 USD, and SPT only requires ownership (no “edition” needed), I’d say that entry price is worth it.

Much easier. It’s only difficult if you want to set up your own dedicated server (so the load is moved off of your gaming PC)

SIT has been discontinued, but Project Fika is the currently active branch for co-op play. I just haven’t used it recently since the headless option is a pain to set up.

Passion project updated by a private indie with no obligation to shareholders is the best kind of game, just ask Project Zomboid :)

I don’t use AI since I prefer learning, but from what I’ve heard, it’s self-hosting or bust.

I mean they made PVE a generic paid addon, but let’s keep it real, the only thing that fixed tarkov was modders, just like Bethesda’s games XD

If you own the game, get SPT, shit’s amazing.

Quite a bit, honestly as a regular player of the single-player mod, content and mechanic wise things have gotten way better.

It’s honestly the execution of matchmaking, server performance (or lack thereof), and certain balance choices holding the game back. Other than that it’s really solid, and if you mod, you can solve all 3 of those problems.

Nah, BSG hates linux. The Single Player Tarkov mod has a guide for it though.

Yeah the player base did, by creating a mod that lets you have a better experience without them - Single Player Tarkov (SPT)!

XD

I’m not an airsofter, but I am an engineering student, can you attach any images of the point of failure or link the site where you bought the gun? I can try to look for technical documentation and read through the relevant stuff.

This has the same energy as BSG saying Tarkov is 1.0 release ready in November of this year XD

Oh my, who could have seen this coming? Who would have thought that using chatbot services from publicly traded companies, who work with data brokers, would index THIS data? Aw jeez… (/s)

What did it feel like before security cameras and personal surveillance became affordable and ubiquitous? Nowadays, I have to internally accept that a majority of my life will be recorded, auto-labeled, and probably marked in a digital vault for sale or future use by some organization. There’s very few ways for my generation to reclaim our privacy - everyone born after the 2000s is basically hosed.

Was it better back then? Did people actually trust one another?

“That’s a bold strategy Cotton, let’s see if that works out for them.”

Andy and Bill’s law 2.0, let’s go

Wouldn’t a wiki be all you need though? Most games and media communities have pretty well made ones maintained, and I’m sure checking categories on Bulbapedia would avoid any hallucination nonsense.
