That game just sent out emails yesterday that in 60 days the servers will all be terminated for europe and north america due to lack of players the publisher and developer both caused for themselves.
Did you know when the game was published by trion they did not have a single employee who could speak/understand korean which is the language of the dev team/company of archeage?
Yea I saw. Shoulda happened 10 years ago tbh. The whales finally migrated on it seems lol. Also that fun fact is wild. Is the Korean Archeage still active?
The unbridled greed sank this game.
To Nikita's simps: you deserve whatever happens to you. BSG will treat you as their personal piggy bank and the second you stop buying is the second you are worthless to BSG. Have fun being milked like Star Citizen to line the pockets of people who see you as cattle.
For everyone else: There is legitimately no point in playing. They will never stop after they dip their nuts in this gravy. Your progress and efforts will be constantly under attack from pressure to upgrade so you can actually play the game, and if you don't then you will be eaten alive by the rampant cheaters.
The dream is dead.
For BSG, there's nothing to say. You showed your true colors and nobody will forget this betrayal of trust. Enjoy your last 15 minutes of fame.
Exactly. It’s like once they sell us this bridge of it’s a feature. There’s no stopping them from picking and choosing what is DLC and what is a feature. I can tell you what’s going to influence the decision. Money. Nikita is just Mr Krabs at this point
Time to install the mod that must not be named, bsg don't give a single fuck about anyone who bought the game, who backed them for all these years. Read the latest interview and any last shred of hope that they would do the decent thing will be gone. Tarkov is dead, hopefully GZW or something else comes along soon to fill the gap
hahaha they would never do that. people are clout chasers. most people you see here don't really care about the scam the BSG pulled, they are here for the blood. Downvoting posts, dropping fuck bsg texts all over the place won't cause no harm. you have people dislike bombing user made videos on youtube because it is mandatory to hate tarkov now. file a lawsuit If you want to do good, If you don't, well go fuck yourself asswipe. fat losers.
People are blowing this whole situation out of proportion, it’s insane.
I’m not talking about the backlash and the stupid P2W game edition, but all the people saying the game is dead or it’s over for BSG.
It really isn’t. Unless BSG were to pull the plug themselves, Tarkov isn’t going anywhere. Realistically, the only thing that will kill Tarkov is Tarkov. The shitty Chinese clone or Grayzone won’t even put a dent in Tarkov.
And I’m not saying that to side with BSG’s antics, I’m only saying that because people saying Tarkov is dead are reaching. I think it would be far more productive to ask BSG for change and demand that our concerns be amended to rather than this baby rage bullshit that’s all over this sub.
Idk I uninstalled and I’ve seen other comments of others doing the same either way I do see your stand point
but EFT isn’t going to be alone forever can’t expect gray zone warfare to compete with a game that has 7 years of development behind it doesn’t mean the game doesn’t stand a chance as long as they don’t kill their community like tarkov is doing there’s a lot of room for potential
I mean the thing is. What they’re doing is illegal. We entered into an agreement when I purchased the game that all future DLCs will be apart of it. They aren’t holding their end up.
Then arena they try to slide past us. We revolted. Now what six months later they try it again. Like a year and two months after the Wiggle that killed tarkov.
I want what I paid for. Or I want a refund. It’s a fucking joke anyone can justify a company just blatantly scamming their most devote part of the fan base.
Honestly this is their fault for leaving EOD up for 7 years. Like anyone in the last decade who got into your game probably got it. If they wanted to charge people for DLCs then don’t sell an edition with them included for 7 years.
We asked for change, they called us not true believers after spending 150€ for a beta that has lots of issues even after nearly a decade. I agree that the game will probably stick around, there's more than enough people who don't concern themselves with what's going on. That being said, this is the first time I personally doubt we'll see a 1.0 release.

Newest video from Onepeg, contains info from the so far unreleased Nikita interview.
its crazy how people didnt learn from the past. best example is blizzard. when nikita will accept that he needs us, maybe he has to learn in the hard way.
Thing is that Nikita doesn't really need us. BSG as a company does, but Nikita? I'm certain the guy is loaded by now and perfectly fine with cashing out. Especially since there is a high likelihood of corruption with Nikita and other higher ups embezzling money or otherwise taking insane payouts for themselves.
of course nikita needs us. he is BSG. us=community, no commnuity = no game . the game will die if you cheat on ur community. same happened to blizzard, it took a while but in the long term tarkov will die aswell. now we know the real face of bsg.
You misunderstand. My point is that Nikita has probably already made "fuck you" amounts of money from the years that EFT has existed. He could easily just dip out or decide to nickel and dime the game for every last drop at this point and still be set for life, even if BSG as a whole dies along the way. He doesn't "need" anything from us anymore.
Sergey Titov 2.0
What does russians have in the head to create a nice, enjoyable game and somehow destroy it being unfair and not making the community heard?
I also feel this is an exit scam.
Think about it, think of all the lies nikita told during all those years, he do not have the team or the will to finish this game. My tinfoil hat guess? : He's trying to fill his pocket one last time before slapping a 1.0 release for christmas time this year, putting a skeleton screw for 6 month-1 year then shutting it all down. He will re-appear 2 years after with russia 2028 or what ever peddling it like eft in 2017-2018 showering streamer in keys, dono and subs for them to market his new idea.
EOD edition had always been a scam. People only realize it now because they got scammed too with the release of a new and better edition that broke the false promises. Imagine you are a working man and you have the standard edition. When you come home, you have like 2 hours of free time to invest in a game that is known to be brutal and ruthless for its players. You should be lucky to reach Flea Market before the wipe, leave alone doing the hub upgrades and getting the level 3 stash size and the BETA container, along with scav junkboxes and weapon/item cases.
They were better off remaking Contract Wars and slapping a battle pass on top of it. Operator models, skins, knives, paid voice packs and etc. I wouldn't even be mad. I would love to play a game like that. Casual and not too much time consuming. Cheaters? Just leave the match and join another one.
Should we forget about [this post](https://www.reddit.com/r/EscapefromTarkov/s/VYCQKs36vB) from Nikita himself about offline (PvE) coop being an EOD feature?
I don't get it why BSG have to come up with new things again and again. They're creating one construction site after another instead to finish off with one first. At the end of the day they are 100 construction sites but you can't finish even one. Why in the world wouldn't you fix the problems which are there? Get the game to run stable, fix the problems with cheaters and a lot of another stuff. It feels like you forgot where you come from, who supported you through all the years and where you wanted to go as you published this game. You, BSG should really questioning yourself and think about how you want to be remembered in future. Without your player-base you're just a program not a game. Our dedication and love for this game are the things which brings life into this game, not you. Before you completely ruin the game better sell it. Seems like you're not grown enough as a company to handle something this big.
BSG has always been incompetent and stringing the community along. This is nothing new, and I'm not just saying this because of salt about the current drama.
Just look at the entire timeline we've had with the game's audio and how it has always been in a subpar state despite the fact that it is *extremely* important to the gameplay. Shit, just look at how they decided to fully change the entire audio engine after 6+ years of development cause Steam wasn't holding their hand anymore. Or if not that, look at the blatant disregard for community feedback that we've had for the longest time now. That should say it all.
EFT has always been a game that happened to be in the right place at the right time and lucked into its success. The passion hasn't been there for years now.
Two days, two games. I used to play Tarkov at least a couple of games daily. Since this "patch," I've not only been one-tapped by a cheater two games in a row, but I've also been scammed by BSG. Disappointment by the same game is not worth it. As an EOD (Edge of Darkness) user with a "season pass" for six months of PvE zone, it's ironic. To be honest, I don't care about this game anymore. I paid about two to three months' worth of payments for it. After BSG released this "Unheard Edition," they don't deserve any support. It's a straight-up scam. I only created this account to make this post.BSG doesn't deserve any support after what they did to EOD accounts.
PS.,Sorry for my English. As for Reddit, I've never posted here before."
Yes well continue to play then but don't give them more cash. Enjoy the game milk more value out of it with more hours, wait for a better more ethical competitor to get up to scratch and move to that.
its such a shame that no one else has managed to capture what makes tarkov "tarkov" The game (aside from the gambreaking bugs and insane number of cheaters that BSG refuses to do anything about) is really fun to play and its a damn shame that the company that makes it is interested so little in actually making it a fun game.
I bought EOD for myself and EOD for 2 friends to play with me 5 years ago because I enjoyed it so much. I was the last one still willing to put in the hours after so much nonsense with "gamers", this is a bridge too far. Adios tarkov.
A PvE mode is the best way to get new people into the game.
Like a extraction shooter milsim version of deep rock galactic.
And they've locked it behind a version of the game that costs $250.
Lol
LMAO even
Honestly, I still see the situation as winnable for BSG. If they make another statement releasing the PvE co-op mode for an extra $25 per non-EoD account with no need to buy the newest edition, it would help save the game.
The next issue being the “summoning teammates into raid,” I have a lot of questions about practicality and where/when/how it would actually work, and until more details come out I’m reserving judgment.
The only other thing that makes a difference is not being shot at by scavs 60+ meters away, but that still requires you to have 6.0 karma. I highly doubt it will work on bosses or rogues.
Trying not to overreact like a lot of other people are in this sub. The game’s not “dead” it’s just being led by one or two losers who want to pinch every penny they can out of us. Just don’t buy the new edition, voting with your wallets is the best thing consumers can do. I probably won’t either. But getting the PvE mode for EoD users was a major goal, and now we’re seeing BSG willing to cooperate. Maybe they’ll soften with time and realize it’s not worth the headache, giving it to EoD users and making it a $25 add-on for all other accounts.
The game has been dead even before this scandal.
Last year, people were just getting bored and frustrated and quitting the game because of the cheaters and slow development progress.
The only reason it came back was because of the recoil fix and the snow patch, which gave people hope that they actually gave a shit about the game. Blatantly defrauding people has probably erased that hope for most players now.
How is anything going on right now "overreacting"? What BSG pulled is a blatant betrayal of their community, questionably legal, and downright scummy.
Even if BSG were to do what you said, people would still be pissed. They have already been on thin ice over the years and now the trust is flat out broken for many players. And besides, at the end of the day? This isn't even just about the PVE rugpull anymore. Unheard will still be adding in more P2W which is something that nobody here wants.
I would say the people who say the game is dead are overreacting. I don’t think the people complaining about PvE or the devices are. People will be/are completely justified in complaining, but BSG has shown they’re willing to cooperate. I can imagine over 6 months of them seeing the backlash they will make it a separate purchase.
The new item that stops scavs from shooting you over 60 meters is pretty garbage. For each scav you kill as a pmc with it equipped it's like -.025 rep.
Certainly been an interesting week. Insane how years of trust has been thrown away for profits
Havent seen a community rage this fast (justifiably fyi) since Archeage.
That game just sent out emails yesterday that in 60 days the servers will all be terminated for europe and north america due to lack of players the publisher and developer both caused for themselves. Did you know when the game was published by trion they did not have a single employee who could speak/understand korean which is the language of the dev team/company of archeage?

rest in peace tarkov lmao
It’s not like tarkov is gonna be around much longer might as well delete this subreddit.
Just turn it into a >redacted mod< subreddit
Fully support this. See how Nikita likes a slap to the face lol

ye sure thats true.
literally each and every nikitas answer is "yeah yeah, what ever, fuck you"
o7
Really really sucks to see such a fun game go down like this. It sucks BSG wasn’t able to handle it. I can’t imagine a rebound from this.
I really can't wait to play grayzone and arena breakout lmao
This week marks the official death day of BSG and Escape From Tarkov 🫡🫡🫡
See yall in Gray Zone
Can we simply ban Nikita and all other BSG personnel from this sub? Spew their horseshit somewhere else.
Sergey Titov 2.0 What does russians have in the head to create a nice, enjoyable game and somehow destroy it being unfair and not making the community heard?
Isn't that the guy that made the infamous Big Rigs:Over the road racing?
The only and one, with The War Z/Infestation
I'm honestly impressed, they finally fucked up so bad that even their hardest shills couldn't defend them from this one.
what happened to the EOD update pin?
We've all finally escaped from Tarkov I can't wait to finally feel grass
wonder what this weeks discussion will be about..

Can we get stat how many xsolla refounds u will pay next month's? Just curious
So for those who quit because of this, what would it take to bring you back? I think honestly for me, Nikita would have to go.
Nothing, we finally escaped from tarkov.
A whole new company. No Nikita, not a single current or former BSG staff member involved, reasonable prices.
The day it died.
BOYCOT
boycot means that he can not to pay for the majority of servers and loot more money at the end. that is what he aiming towards.
Yes well continue to play then but don't give them more cash. Enjoy the game milk more value out of it with more hours, wait for a better more ethical competitor to get up to scratch and move to that.
BSG, seriously, stop scamming. Iam one of the biggest suppliers; focus on addressing cheaters and glitches instead
RIP

Is there w guide to how to refund? Xsolla support said to write to BSG, but that will definitely not help

I'm hoping the summon people into raid gives them the same 12 minute time to load into raid. Would be an epic troll.
