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... See more

Terrible game
Terrible game, terrible mechanics, terrible anti cheat, terrible spawn placements, terrible servers. All in all this game shouldn’t even be in beta phase. It shouldn’t have even made it to alpha. Only reason I play it is cause I was stupid enough to buy unheard edition.
The game is already bad enough you guys…
The game is already bad enough you guys don’t have to do maintenance for 10 hours straight. You’re not fooling anybody we know that it will still have the same issues within 10 minutes of relaunching the game if the game has to go down for a half of a day at least one issue should be fixed but instead there will just be new issues that will probably push me away from this game again
Game is no longer worth playing with other players
PVE is the only fun experience here. PVP is clearly full of cheaters so no point in playing the original game anymore. In arena you will only die to headshots because all your other hitboxes are ignored by their aim bots... tried to enjoy this game; i really did, been here since EOD when i was promised all future dlcs. Just know anytime you are playing tarkov with other actual players you with certainty are going to get killed by cheaters. Also in arena; separate people who have already unlocked the higher tier shit from the people playing arena the first time this wipe. it is ridiculous. Do you all intend on keeping your playerbase? because designing the game to curb stomp lvl1s and ignoring the MASSIVE cheating problem is a great way to send players elsewhere.
Also this game claims to reflect realism. Where is the realism? i shoot someone over a dozen times with 7.62x51 and they survive?????? I dare the creators to do some real life ballistic tests because this is stupid... This game takes going "full retard" to a whole new level.
Do not buy this "game"
If you bought the game in the Russian Federation or the CIS, and moved to Europe, for example, then you will not be able to play, you need to pay 40 dollars to change the region! 40 Carl! Oh, and of course, if you want to play without cheaters, in single-player, then you need to pay an additional 20 euros for a single-player game! This is just a mockery, I really regret that I ever bought this.
Could be amazing but is lacking in basic feel
Short version, game falls flat in the very basic shooter aspects. Longer version below.
Biggest beef, friend or foe. I dont have time to look at someone shoes or shirt to determine if they are PMC or SCAV. You need to make it easier in this aspect. You also need to put my co-op teams name on the screen. I understand you want this to be a super-realistic experience. Get over it, my friends arent black ops operators. They dont communicate as such. We play stuff in our free time. It doesnt take away from your experience for me to know where my friends are located. Professionals communicate and train to a degree that they move as a team and communicate to know where each other are. I and my friends dont do that, stop making it stupidly over difficult. You are losing possible players.
Long-version:
Devs did a great job researching the actual weapons and armor and items. Game feels great half the time. Watching an NPC run down stairs and keep aim on-target is ridiculous. Game visually looks great. Map variety is great. There is a lot here that could be great...just not the average gameplay. If you want a game that feels like you are smashing your peepee in a sliding door half the time...this is one of your games.
Just got one tapped to the thorax by…
Just got one tapped to the thorax by m882 (some of the worst ammo in the game) while wearing a TIER5 BAGARLY the realism is garbage I have to shoot tier 3 armor 30 times just to make somebody bleed and I get one tapped to the chest while wearing some of the best armor in the game. Just sell the platform literally anybody else could make this game better
Worst game i've ever spend money on
Worst game i've ever spend money on!
and you cant get a refund. 100euro out the window as they say..
dont waste your time or money!
the reviews speak for themself!
They don’t even deserve one star
They don’t even deserve one star. I’ve never seen such poor support and development. They have no regard for the community that funded them. Nikita is misleading and dishonest, refusing to listen to players. Communicating with their support team feels like trying to reason with a group of baboons at the zoo. The game is riddled with bugs, broken mechanics and armor, and a memory leak that has existed since the beginning. On top of that, they have the worst support in gaming history. Avoid this company at all costs.
BAD GAME DONT BUY OR SUPPORT THESE DEVS
you wait 10 mins to get in a game, you spawn in, not even 2 steps and youre insta headshot, thats fine maybe its just luck. que up another 10 mins spawn in, take 2 steps insta headshot, wow thats really unlucky hopefully next game will be better, wait 10 mins spawn in take 5 steps maybe loot one box if youre really really lucky, insta headshot. game is cooked lol dont waste money on it.
Very good game
Very good game. I am not a pvp fan but pve is great. ok sometimes you get oneshot but it's the game lol you oneshot or get oneshot like IRL.
Tinder has less cheaters than this shit
Shitty game
The game is complete dog shit the anti cheat is a million times worser then Temu anti cheat the game is un optimized and runs like shit Not a fun game not worth the money I've got almost 1000 wasted on this game DONT BUY!
They talked a great game
They talked a great game, but the game is " good in the essence " but it suffer two things,
MAJOR GREED
AND INCOMPIDENCE:
Scummiest game development company
These terrible people will go down in time as one of the worst game developers of all time. They are selfish lying scumbags with a track record of scamming players as well as numerous shady practices such as leaking player data. I hope one day they will get shut down. I suggest everyone to chargeback their Escape From Tarkov, you will almost certainly win. Down with Battleshite Games!
If there was ever an award called…
If there was ever an award called ''Non-existent anti-cheat with a guanteed blatant cheater in every game you play'' Tarkov would 100000000000% win.
If you're willing to trade your valuable life & money for this game, you seriously need God.
Worst game I've ever played
Worst game I've ever played. Ive given it chance after chance year after year. Still takes 10 minutes to load a match because of people abusing ping. Still people that gly around maps. And after 8 years you'd think you'd sort out things like the matching bug where you can sit in a menu for literally forever without playing the game.If your into getting your genitals twisted it might be your thing.
dont buy this useless game
dont buy this useless game. devs know how bad it is, no support at all, no refunds at all. dont make the mistake.
2018 bugs in 2025?
great awful game no longer jaded by its gameplay and atmosphere, the bugs and cheaters ruin the experience and the cherry on top is the disrespect from the devs + nikitar-d and the $250 P2W edition
do not wait for "1.0" This is 1.0 nothing will change and things will continue to be broken.
excited for bsg to go under tbh
