I just don't get it, I feel like at least 80% of the tarkov playerbase has played a stalker game before. At least I hope so, not saying tarkov needs to have shit like little psychokinesis midgets running around throwing mind bullets but live a little when the devs want to fuck around.

>>586226868

Anyone else fucking love the monochrome look of infected factory? Everything looks so clear.

>>586227425
It's a nice contrast to the rest of Tarkov and it adds a ton to the general vibe.

>>586226836
That's all well and good until you run out of ammo or Tagilla shows up.

>>586226868
You gotta understand that 80% of the tarkov playerbase is fear-stricken, mindbroken retards who never want to die in game or learn anything new via trial and error. They're also terrified of some other player having an advantage over them, despite playing one of the most asymmetric video games ever.

Events that pit them against the unknown or disrupt their established safe routine are their worst nightmare. They're the kind of braindead that wouldn't see anything wrong with endlessly stomping lobbies of timmies and never being challenged or pushed. Every time they kill someone it's because they're amazing, but every time they die it's because the game is unfair.

>>586229778
It's honestly sad, events like this are the perfect opportunity to get out of your comfort zone and just fuck around.

I know Killa was inspired, or just straight up copied, from a "Gopnik tachanka" cosplay, and I think the Wedge was inspired by those "Wolf Hound" guys from Resident Evil Village.
Any other know inspirations for the Bosses in Tarkov?

>>586255035
Wouldn't surprise me if Knight was inspired by Ghost from Call of Duty.
Birdeye is based on a photo of a MARSOC guy.
Speaking of Wedge, I know they said his or Shturman's Parkas will not be wearable because they're made specifically for bosses so they would cause clipping issues with other gear, but I hope they manage to make a PMC version at some point.

I could point you to a bunch of individual movies, games and tv shows which inspired the various characters of Tarkov, but it'd be far more helpful to say that all of them are based on broad archetypes of people who desire real power and the ownership of space, and ruthlessly start exercising that will the moment order breaks down and the lines start fuzzing. Reshala is generally based on the image of the Post-Soviet gangster that flourished in 90s Russia (the Brother [Бpaт] movies, the Brigada TV series), Prapor is based on Sidorovich from STALKER and the Belarusian general from Lord of War. Skier was a lowly gangster that successfully embedded himself as a critical cog in vital economic infrastructure before everything crystallised and those opportunities were closed. Jaeger and Partisan are enlightened modern-day hermits (the character of the Stalker in the 1979 Tarkovsky film).

>>586275875
You on seasonal with no flea or something?

>>586276016
Yeah, I wanted to basically go solo and use only trader gear to see how I'd fair. It's been fun but actually kinda boring. I rarely bought gear directly off flea anyway, but I didn't realize how much I relied on cool niche barters on my main character. Without flea it's hard to pick up easy shit like the various military cable and vodka barters. That and I didn't realize how overpriced some of the shitstick weapons I like are from traders lol. Like why the base p90 costs 180k rubles from peacekeeper is beyond me.

Surprisingly though money hasn't been too much of an issue despite only being able to sell things for trader prices and relying on loot keys that I find.

>>586276869
Yea, it's extremely stupid how expensive some of the weapons are and how much cheaper they are on the flea and through barters.

Nah fuck it I'm doing the therapist route for this, I need a docs case still anyway. And later on I might be able to take skiers side to get some food bags? Need those too...

I'm unlocking the maps with story stuff to help my friend with the event on pve

Is Glukhar back in Reserve where he belongs?

>>586286283
Unfortunately he is

Speaking of Glukhar, anyone know why he doesn't just spawn in the bunker command center? Seems like such a kino choice, kind of like kaban where his squad fortifies the whole bunker with shit while he holes up in the command room. I wonder why BSG never opted to put him there. Would make the bunker way more interesting because you don't just have the closest spawning person sprinting to a dark corner to rat. You could have multiple independent people all trying to fight their way in from different entrances.

Oh I guess tagilla is guarding cat on labs now?

>>586299412
yeah he spawns at vegg blowjob

It's pretty boring how there's literally no zombies on regular maps. Have seen like 1-2 throughout my 20 raids on LH. I miss the old event, when all the maps were in constant chaos and the game pretty much took a break from it's usual bullshit. Now it's just two infected maps, and even on those everyone is just killing on sight immediately.

>>586301313
Fucking BSG bend the knee to no-fun-allowed crybabies who couldn't handle how insane the last event was. Streets was so fucking fun, you'd have literal hordes of them chasing you down. I remember going into lexos to complete the event quest and taking TWO loaded shotguns in case I needed to swap on the fly. So stupid that people were actually like "this event sucks because I can't play the game exactly as I always have for this 2 week period wtf"

Will the biohazard level of normal maps increase as the event progresses, I wonder?

>>586304902
I honestly hope they cut this shit short. Zombies are just a waste of bullets with 0 value in terms of exp or loot, the maps suck, the quests are terrible.

I liked the Misery overhaul on the occasions it actually works. It was very fun figuring out how to get money when everything kills you in one hit and you only have shitty rusty pig iron guns. It really feels like you earned the high end military gear when you get it. All artifacts are radioactive too so you need special containers to equip them without dying.
