Well, yeah: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YKbFwYOXv_g That aint the attitude of a man with empathy!

The only reason I play USEC is so I can stack commie bodies.

Once a USEC, always a USEC.

Not true, I'm gonna play BEAR once the game releases, my whole squad is.

How could you! 6:12 https://youtu.be/7iexlGj4Lvg?t=372

Tbh I originally went USEC because I wanted to use the MP7, but then I heard they don't get bonuses for all western weapons, just AR-15's. Most players are USEC anyway so I'm gonna be the minority.

Fair enough. I myself went with USEC because of the English voices.

Thats it going BEAR after wipe.

You cannot abandon your roots! Just you wait, you'll come crawling back and everyone will be able to hear you doing it too, bcuz, you know... Tarkov has really loud crawling noises, heh

I just alternate every wipe

Reading the QnA shortlist on Reddit it seems they're adding the AR-15, available from LL1 PK, I am super excite. "Planned to remove glitch that allows stuffing of bags inside one another in .11 Not sure how I feel about this one. I wish they'd just let you 'condense' bags into maybe a 2x2 without the ability to put anything in them or whatever and stack them up to maybe a limit of 5-10.

I hope they keep the 100% spawn chance scav bosses. It's nice high risk high reward loot that actually feels dangerous getting.

Likewise, but I feel it makes it a bit too easy to get loot. Pretty much every time I run that map, I come out fully kitted. And scav boss is so damn easy that i've already killed him and his squad with my hatchet alone. Just don't get caught with your dick in ass and you should be fine

Most time I've died to them is their perfect nades, could change the AI so they work together more, like 2 suppress fire your location and a couple others move up, stuff like that.

First time I died to them, it was something out of an action scene. They were at gas station, most of them outside near the front area. One was on the side, and he was just relaxing out there. I peaked the corner with my rifle, shot him in the head killing him instantly. The second that happened, Rashala pushed me around the outside spraying, so I ran like hell to the back entrance. As I was running, I could hear a scav running both inside and from behind, back where I killed the first guy. They both closed in on me, and as I was opening the back door, it was breached and I was sprayed down mid animation. Honestly one of the most terrifying moments in tarkov for me. I've yet to see a single squad act that fast and coordinated.

Love the breaching in Tarkov.. I hope they give you a basic cone-aim while you do it just for the shock & awe~

Yeah nah fuck this shit. Been playing and I've consistently seen more player scavs than actual PMC players, fucking why? Seriously need to fuck player scavs out of this game there's literally no place for them.

So when you run out of inventory you just... stop playing?

You got a secure container, you can hatchet run, you're literally guarentee'd to come out with gear in some way shape or form. How can people be so bad as to literally go through 'all' their gear? I've been trying to ditch run everything I have and I still come out with more than I put in.

So let me guess, you went into a raid geared up and got popped by a player scav who had a 50/50 chance of getting out with your gear and you're mad over the gameplay mechanic that it gives. Call me blunt but cry me a fucking river, playing as a scav is the most fun thing I get out of this game. The lack of pressure and just being able to fuck around like a moron is great, if I make it out with stuff then great, if I don't then well jeez shit that happened I guess. Playing PMC all the time is draining, when playing as PMC you're constantly on edge because of so many factors, and doing hatchet runs is both fucking boring and unachieving. Sure I can buy gear and go out with that but the whole point of scaving as a player to is both give you a break from everything and add in a more complex player element for other players. You're there as a player scav to make the game harder for everyone else, its a fucking gameplay mechanic designed to punish everyone. You know that whole RISK AND REWARD shit you mentioned, PLAYER SCAVS ARE PART OF THAT, THEY'RE ONE OF THE RISK FACTORS. The fact I even have to explain this is mind numbing holy fuck.

Fine, play scav. Remove their rewards then because that's what most people play them for, not to relax or to fuck about. The games premise is also on realism, and to make players act as realistic as possible. Scav gameplay is also against that 'because' you fuck around like your life is worthless and no one fuckin acts like that.

I think player scavs are great. They help out new players and revitalize longer raids.

some of the most interesting moments for me have actually been due to player scavs, i'd say keep em

Next time try putting in more effort on your argument instead of just mirroring what another person said, so unoriginal... You may not enjoy Scavs but I enjoy the fuck out of them, especially when my 3 other friends squad up with me and we become a roaming anomaly. You just don't see too many large groups of player Scavs and it adds a completely new dynamic when PMCs stumble across your group, or when you stumble across them first MUAHAHAHA >:D *ahem* But anyways, perhaps BSG can do something to balance out Scavs. I know right now the timer on being able to use your Scav again is pretty low so they should probably increase the timer for starters, I'm not sure why they decreased it in the first place. Truth be told I find player Scavs to be a very good mechanic, this is most evident in Factory. Nothing gets my anxiety shooting through the roof more than having first cleared out Factory only to hear the cries of player Scavs spawning throughout the map. At this point I'm nearly shitting my pants while trying to think of a safe way to extract with all the loot I gathered. I'd never get the same feeling if it was just AI Scavs spawning in.
