Thoughts on Escape From Tarkov + message for Devs
Hi gamers!

Today I want to talk a bit about Escape From Tarkov PC game. Even this game is still in beta developement, I am determined to showcase some of the issues we're having while playing the game. Also, I want to give a short review of the game and give some tips that might make our gameplay more excited.

So, what is Escape From Tarkov or EFT? It is a hardcore survival hording game similar to battleroyal kind of games. But, it has other features that make this game more special. 

![EFT.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmV7S7RKWPZokoJwPEG3LcB6TCcYv7aXVsLBt8PxFg8H8d/EFT.jpg)

*The whole point of the game is to enter the raid as Scav or PMC and try to extract as much geared as you can be.*

Every map has different set of rules about how much Scav players and PMCs will be spawned. This is a crucial info to know when making plans for your raid. 

Scavs are simply AI that is spawned on a few areas on the map. They are randomly geared and can be really good with their aim and  movemement sometimes, so be aware! 

Once, every 20ish minutes, you can play as Scav player. This is because you get random gear as a Scav and if u extract, you haven't invested anything but you made 100% profit which is not the same when you play as PMC as you are playing with your own gear. 

*In both cases, if you die, you simply lose everything you have on you ATM.* And, that is where hardcore part comes from. 

It is very simple, if you die, you lose your gear (this could easily be a slogan for the game). Now, imagine how would you feel if you are extracting with 1.5mil on you and you get shot 2 seconds before your extraction. Or, imagine you play as PMC, fully geared, and you get shot by a camper in the bush with a pistol that's loaded with good bullets. Just imagine...

*This game is not fogiving and it will make you love it and hate it at the same time.* 

As everything is randomized, it means that sometimes you will get those annoying situations but luckily, it is not happening thst much often. That being said, it is super satisfying to extract as boss, geared as fu*k. :) 

Once you extract, you can put your new gear in the stash and then either you can sell it or you keep it for upgrading your hideout. Hideout can boost your regeneration, Scav cooldown timer, and many more things. Heck, **you can even build a Bitcoin farm and farm your Bitcoin everyday.**

With everthing we said already, a lot of attachments for weapons, gear, inventory management system and brutal hardcore "difficulty" , this game is something else and it might become one of the best survival/BR games ever played. Currently, it is very popular but that might not be same in the future because of the issues we're having when playing the game.

*Now that we said a lot of good stuff about the game, it is time to say what is wrong and what can be fixed.*

First things first, I hope devs will finally listen to their audience and realize that good servers are probably the most important thing to have. Since the game just got massively popular and everyone started to play it, the servers got surprised and are having a lot of issues lately. 

I know a lot of devs are always looking to make the game feel or look better, but I hope they will realize that servers are the only thing that can bury this game down into the ground. We don't want that to happen as we are enjoying the game and can see the potential and fun it brings. 

So, **servers first**! That should be a top top priority for EFT team. 

The second thing is a smaller issue, which is not an issue but still it can make us enjoy the game more. 

When we wait for the new raid, it might be okeyish to let us manage our inventory and go through flea market or hideout. This might save us a bit of time and we wouldn't feel that long wait we have sometimes. 

Even tho' this is related to servers issues and can be fixed easily, I would still be happy to be able to do anything else but waiting while trying to enter the raid. 

*And last but not the least,...*

Let's fix some of the skills. It is not that much fair that somebody has better recoil or ergonomics if he/she **just** played the game longer than me. Some skills are just not well thought or need to be changed a bit so that the game is fair for everyone. 

Don't get me wrong. I really like the skill tree idea but it just needs to be more fair and not lean on how long somebody played the game.

*The skill and tactics are what is important, not how long you play!*

This being said, I am playing the game for just one month and I already like it a lot. I like how hardcore it is and I believe it can be much much better. Luckily, we are still in beta and hopefully, devs will listen to their fans and fix some things that are annoying. :) 

See ya in Tarkov,

Mr. Spacely

I have it on my radar for quite some time now. Last time I checked it was in closed beta though. How about now?
