Escape from Tarkov Dev Tracker

Not sure if this has already been asked but, will you consider an ‘operation health’ at some point like Rainbow 6 had years ago?

I know cheating is on everyone’s lips at the moment, but audio fixes are something I personally want more and other performance issues.

Although new content is always great, I’m honestly happy with what we have already and I think a lot of people are more interested in seeing the game reach a healthier state performance wise rather than more maps.

Edit: just realised this kind of request is exactly what started this post so it has already been asked

Would you say the game is moving towards your vision of what it should be at a satisfying rate? What would you say is the biggest issue standing in the way of acheiving that vision apart from RGB gamers?

Hi Nikita, do you think Arena will suffer the same cheating issues as Tarkov? And is it also using BattleEye?

I'm wondering if the spectating/end of match views etc will help?

Lastly what DAW do you like to use to make your Geneburn music? I really enjoy your soundtracks and just wish to know more about your process, as a musician myself.

Thank-you for these discussions, and I hope that things improve for us all. The community has been very critical of you and your team for some time; often in a very aggressive and disgusting way. Its unfair as most of us have no idea have no real knowledge of how to fix these things, and of course you want what is best for your game and your staff!

Is there any chance scopes could be fully variably zoomed?

I absolutely adore what you did with crouch levels, movement speed, and lean amounts.

Could we get a similar thing (maybe based on the scroll wheel for example) for variable magnification scopes?

It would be amazing to take a 1-6x scope for example and partially zoom it in to 2x like you can in real life

Has BSG considered reaching out to the SPT community? I feel like there are untapped resources and man power in the modding community that BSG could utilize.

1. More clarity on what is/isn't allowed. A lot of normal players feel likea criminal for dropping their buddy their weapon back in fear of being banned.

2. Timely appeals process for bans. If a regular player is banned falsely, there is no way to ever play the game again unless they have a large following on twitter or get traction on reddit. In light of streamer manual bans and discord bans a lot of players feel worried they will get banned unjustly with no recourse from a single, client side POV that is desynced.

3. Remove p2p flea barters. These are mostly scams for the less vigilant and facilitate RMT. I was made aware of this after I fell for one of these scam offers once myself.

4. Cheaters. There is a lot of data you can harness on players in order to identify cheaters that other games aren't fortunate enough to have. People deviating far above average extracting with rare keycards, ledxs could easily be flagged and accounts revi...

Hello! Would it be possible to add a right click "check profile" to view the profile/stats of the player that killed you? (At the post raid screen). That would be very helpful when deciding if how I died was legit or to a cheater. If we could check statistics on the account I would be more certain in my report. For example, if the account has a very short lifetime with very high PVP KDA. Number of kills in Head, thorax, arms, legs etc. It would help me to be more certain in my reports. I think splitting PVE KDA and PVP KDA is also a good idea. PVP-KDA should only include deaths to other players and not suicide/scav deaths to make it more clear how often you come out ahead vs a player. Making it harder for cheaters to just blow themselves up with nades to lower their KDA for example.

When will you get rid of the initial recoil? The first 5 bullets climb into air and later on recoil skill kicks in. I would rather be able to control the recoil with my mouse than to rely on a skill that doesn't do much. The inertia i can get used to, it doesn't bother me, but if I have to land first few bullets on target that are crucial to whether the guy at the end of the barrel dies or not it's not really good to have that mechanic in the game.

My second question is when will you buff the loot behind the closed areas like doors?

When will prone movement be added back into the game?

My trust in the game is broken, I have experienced cheating in EFT even after only less than maybe 100 hours of game time. The video that was released basically just confirmed what I suspected. I will probably only return if the devs fix the game and put measures in place to fix the overwhelming cheating problem in EFT. I believe I am not the only one. My question is how soon are you going to start taking action? Calender date if you can? And what is the action plan?

1) How is the progress on load out presets for gear and stuff we bring into raid? Is it even in progress yet?

2) Why can't use maps in pmcs special slot?...Players are resorting to using online third party maps (i.e. , tarkovbook(DOT)com, tarkov.help, etc)

Is Battlestate hiring new devs and expanding, or looking to do so?

You've partially answered this before, but can you explain how often the flea market suspicious offer reports are reviewed?

It's really bloody annoying having people lob grenades at you in pitch black when you've been silent and are unseen for 10 minutes on Shoreline because they've got ESP, but it's arguably even worse to go look at the flea market and see someone with 150+ flea rating selling a 50-pack of LEDxs, 150 GPUs and 20 marked room keys.

It's a regular slap in the face and it's probably the worst and most aggravating thing for players to see - they use the flea regularly and to see people who have obviously been loot-hoovering all the maps for so long that they've got that many items and that much flea rating makes people think no-one is enforcing anti-cheat.

My friend told me and showed me, that he bought cheats for EFT from the devs themselves. I think not many people know about this and its a really bad thing to be going on. He has played for over 3 years with those cheats and has never been banned since. It seems like if the cheater isnt going straight blatant and is actully trying to hide it, they get away with it. Seems like BattleEye is a bad software.

Do you think that removing the flea market from the game would help when it comes to eliminating RMT and cheating in general?

1 )Can you increase the spawnrate of bosses and raiders drastically? They are a fun part of the game and seeing gluhar once every 150 raids sucks.

2) Labs coloured keycards have been unaffordable for the past 2 years. Im talking red etc.

I remember buying red for 26 million after the reserve release. That seemed fair. Obtainable.

Man, Nikita really cherry picking the questions and expecting us to believe "trust me bro" in a lot of cases.

This post is just further damage control and it f**king shows

Have you thought of making something like https://twitter.com/RustUpdates ? They post their commits on Twitter so people can see how things are going.

If we want to continue playing are there other ways beyond reports that we can help with the problem?

I cant play the game properly right now as its too painfall but im willing to put in some hours to be a honey pot but the reporting system is so obscure it feels like a waste of my time.

Im not sure making videos of the cheaters is the right approach but im up for helping if it makes a difference.
