Escape from Tarkov

Literally ass if you are a solo. Constant buff to groups, currently allowed to run 5 deep with everyone's tasks completing together even if they're just carried HARD, they're now looking at bringing in a revive and knocked system in December to buff group play even more. If you are a solo i cannot recommend this game in the slightest as no matter what you will just constantly see people running 3-5 deep, meaning you need to play with literal perfection (impossible as usually the combined hours of the people in the group exceed 20k.....), or you have to stay quiet in a bush and immediately just get cussed out for 'ratting'. On top of that the amount of 200hr, 5kd players 1 tapping heads through closed doors on labs is absurd lol. None of this is even getting started on the p2w aspects of the £200 secure container, extra gear, offline modes for practice, extra pocket slots etc etc, but thats for another day. I recently started and stuck through getting demolished to learn the game, currently on 200hrs myself and can safely move about all maps and extract etc apart from lighthouse mainly, and i've just achieved my first prestige, but it is here where the real flaws have begun to show. Plus notes - game runs well for my system specs 120fps on streets (largest map) and 200-240fps everywhere else. - Gunplay and customisation is very well done of any extraction i've touched. - Gathering loot, tasking, hideout upgrades etc etc , theres always something to be done and its very addicting. TDLR, the game is very fun at its core but unfortunately as a new player its almost impossible to play unless you run 5 deep and even then you're going to not stand a chance for thousands of hours, playing solo is just not an option and unless the Devs take the feedback from the majority of the player base regarding buffs to group play then i can safely say i will not be returning anytime soon, which is a shame. THIS REVIEW IS FROM PVP PERM AND PVP SEASONAL PERSPECTIVE ONLY, I DO NOT PLAY THE PVE MODE.
