Battlestate Games Reviews 

Their coding for one is the worst. You can have some of the best tech, running admin, lowest settings and you will still have connection issues, from multiple states from multiple internet hosts, it still the same, their codes are garbage. DO NOT spend any money on this game.

The developers betrayed the community time and time again, with the final straw being the removal of the edge of darkness edition which was basically the games "supporter edition" that promised the buyers every DLC, addon, and anything else you could think of that could come out thats related to escape from tarkov. They pretended like we didn't exist as they added a more expensive edition that included a paywall to a new gamemode and had pay-to-win mechanics that were only accessible through that new 250 dollar edition. The development has been awful and the game has a terrible history with hackers constantly ruining the experience. I hope the game fails on launch just to teach these devs a lesson for betraying their supporters loyalty.

I’ve been trying to recover my Escape from Tarkov account that I purchased about 5 years ago. Unfortunately, my email is no longer recognized, which I discovered is a recurring issue for other players as well.

I still have the Xsolla receipts, with full transaction ID, date, amount, payment method, and email used at the time of purchase. However, Battlestate Games support is refusing to accept them, insisting that I provide a “full-size screenshot” from the payment system – which is not possible anymore, since the original credit card doesn’t even exist.

I’ve already provided all the information any normal support team would consider sufficient proof of purchase, yet they are blocking me from recovering my account.

It feels unfair and disrespectful to loyal players who supported the game years ago.

total bullshit constant bugs and cheaters do not buy this game it is well designed but everything else sucks

This is half of the best game on the market. the other half is an absolute disgrace of cheaters ruining your entire experience. The money hungry devs must be hitting the bricks right now, because they clearly are doing nothing to stop the rampant decay of their game

i swear to god how do you fk up landmines so bad, that landmines on concrete are invisible?
thx for throwing my raid.

Cool idea for a game but executed poorly and it's not worth your time if you've got a life. Even if you wanna play the pve to avoid the sweaty nerds, the AI love to snap onto you and kill you instantly regardless of how quiet you are. So if u don't live for sweaty gaming deffo don't bother with this game.

I’ve spent over €300 on Escape from Tarkov, including the base game and multiple upgrades or items over time.

After losing access to my account, I contacted Battlestate Games support and provided all requested information:
– Email address
– Payment receipts (PayPal)
– Purchase and activation details
– Login confirmation emails from Battlestate

Despite this, support keeps refusing to recover my account because I “didn’t provide the login name,” even though it clearly appears in their own emails.

I’ve now been handed over to multiple agents, but the case still isn’t being handled seriously. I’ve proven ownership beyond any reasonable doubt.

Extremely disappointed with how Battlestate Games treats paying customers and handles account recovery. I would strongly caution anyone before investing in this game.

I just got killed less than 20 seconds after spawning if youre not some sweaty nerd you dont stand a chance fun game HAHAHAH

This game would be fantastic if the stupid developers spent a single ounce of effort trying to stop cheaters. ARENA and normal tarkov are a crap show of hacks and there is no way to be competitive against people using wall hacks and aim bots. Do not play this game unless you like getting killed by little POS cheaters and rats that sit in bushes for 40 minutes at extract waiting for you to bring them your hard earned loot.

Seriously, do not buy this game. I would ask for a refund, but the developers dont do that, despite what they may say.

I LOVE WAITING 15 MINUTES TO GET INTO A GAME JUST FOR IT TO CRASH, HAVE NO AUDIO, OR LAG TO SHIT

i bought tarkov, not arena. now arena people get benefits for tarkov.

just because their sht arena game is failing they are forcing their tarkov gamers to play that if they wanna stay up to date with money and gear.

Why in the world would anyone want to play the cheater infested PvP or the PvE where you die back to back from the goons spawning right next you(or just tracking you the entire RAID), Partisan who has no audible footsteps who is supposed to hunt rats in PvP, a boss who can see you before you see them or getting killed from an auto grenade launcher because the task is next to a boss area lets not forget the invisible landmines buried in Concrete that kill you instantly. Terribly unbalanced game. I will change the review if they make some changes to make the game more balanced. NOT EASIER but more Balanced. Besides that it is filled with game crashing bugs specifically on Streets Of Tarkov.

A video-game that does 'wipes' is not a good video-game. It is not balanced, & relying on wipes is not a bandage that should be used. Only infecting the wound, so to speak.

I've been banned for one occasion of RMT, fair game. But what strikes me, is that they let me buy another account and ban me again after 1 month of play (when I've invested in a top edition and bought some skins) while I was playing fair 100%!

Their shady strategy is very non-consumer friendly. No way to appeal or somehow talk to them. They just straight up reply with auto message and don't give a damn about your time and money. Never seen such a shitty attitude towards a player.

This company doesn't care about your time invested in this game, nor do they care what you have to say!

I have the game for almost 6 years, its a joke, full of cheaters, performance ish,the player game mechanics it just horrible.

they just fked it . They do not care about the players' experience, or anyone's opinion on the direction of the game. The new wipe is essentially a rugpull, they just killed the game with a ton of outlandish changes that make it feel like a free mobile game.

I bought the game about 2 years ago and now when i try to login, i can't even login because their mail servers does not work. They require some sort of 2fa verification every time you try to login and that authentication code is never delivered. I have tried to get back into the game for the last 2 weeks and all their support does is copy/paste a support article. This is the worst experience i have ever had with a game company. Don't buy this game.

This company openly supplies military equipment and funding for the Russian invasion of Ukraine. It is also a dogshit game. Don't buy, grey zone, dark and darker, both better games. Go buy those. Nuke Russia 2025 :)
