Oh shit I hope I get a key

[QUOTE=DEMONSKUL;52516434]Oh shit I hope I get a key[/QUOTE] I'm pretty sure everyone who pre-ordered any edition is gonna get in the closed beta within the week.

[QUOTE=simkas;52516439]I'm pretty sure everyone who pre-ordered any edition is gonna get in the closed beta within the week.[/QUOTE] People who had alpha access get beta access immediately, people who preordered but didn't have alpha access get beta withing the next week depending on how early they ordered, people who buy after this first week get access immediately.

Heh I'm dumb I thought it was opened I didn't preorder And now I'm short on cash Guess I'll wait for the open beta

[QUOTE=nutcake;52516666]You can still order while closed beta is going on and get instant access, if that's what you mean.[/QUOTE] Yeah I know that I ain't going to anyway since I'm broke, I just thought it was an open beta, not closed

EFT website is down rn, so I can't check if I can download the game.

I'm still a bit on edge if this is worth it, I mean the game is literal gun porn but its got a lot putting me off, mostly the whole real cash for bigger stash, the god damn locked fov with the excuse of animations being used to keep it locked and that the gun play its self isn't all that great.

The EOD edition buyers can't lose the hatchet as long as it is in their knife slot. You can obtain everything EOD owners have besides: A few days early access Tomahawk Unique ID (their in game name)

Unless they've 180'd on that recently, it still left something really sour in my mouth.

Only difference with that container is I might be able to take a scope out with me where someone else might not, it really is a minor "advantage" at best.

Wrong, best tier gives you more space for items in your actual stash. You also get that better container you talk about. Kinda weird how theres literal pay2win aspect in pre-order bonuses. I will see what kind of responses this will have and decide later if i will buy it.

I'm so turbo tempted to spend the $45 for closed beta access

What happens to your stuff when you die, what's stash and what is a secured container good for?

[QUOTE=lekkimsm;52518931]What happens to your stuff when you die, what's stash and what is a secured container good for?[/QUOTE] You lose all the stuff you've taken with you when you die except for the items in your secured container. The stash is the place where you store the items you've taken from a raid.

[QUOTE=Araknid;52518891]I'm so turbo tempted to spend the $45 for closed beta access[/QUOTE] You might wanna hold off for a week or two, many people report that the beta fixed neither the issues with AI, nor the desync. Though the desync makes sense, since there is such a large influx of players

I'd also say hold off unless you have friends to play with. Tarkov is best played with other people that you have comms with.

Though the desync makes sense, since there is such a large influx of players[/QUOTE] The funny part about that AI is everyone was already complaining about how terminator they were, so apparently the devs went and ramped up their difficulty 10x now, insta headshots and only headshots. Also if you buy the Basic you'll still have to wait a week to get in due to their wave bullshit.

Anyone else think it's strange that you can buy this game with Subway gift cards? [img]https://puu.sh/wWw9g.png[/img]

[img]https://puu.sh/wWw9g.png[/img][/QUOTE] What a great way to mask your purchases whenever someone asks what you want for your birthday/christmas/etc "Hey there fellow coworker, what you want for your birthday" "get me as many subway gift cards as possible" (later) "gee, we got coworker all those subway gift cards but he never seems to be eating subway"

Aw hell yeah, they accepted me to the CBT!

I bought it yesterday.. no key though :(

Want to buy better container, but devs won't implement that for a long long while methinks. gotta rake in the rubles. It also occurred to me the containers themselves encourage the hatchet runs which goes completely against what the game is all about. I hear that they'll discourage that through persistent damage over your character but I feel it'd be real shitty to not be able to play the game properly if you got terribly unlucky. Also another complaint of sorts is the sound is shit... The quality of the sound is great and all but it's implemented 'really' badly. Like if you're on factory and you're sitting still, you can hear people run past you and it sounds like they're literally right next to you but they'll be in the tunnels a good 6 inches of concrete away. There's no directional or muffled sounds at all and it irks the crap outta me.
