Tarkov Dev in Controversy Over $250 DLC | MoistCr1tikal
thoughts on tarov making DLC not DLC and
making people who bought an addition
that is supposed to give you all DLC for
free have to pay for at the low price of
250 that essentially makes it pay to win
is that what’s going on right now in the
tarov community because I’ve seen
there’s a lot of drama but I haven’t
looked into what’s going
on there’s still just a lot I’m catching
up on Adonis but that is on the list to
watch
sub Krampus and the prime badass and the
five GI Subs plon thanks
plon yeah I’ll read about it while we
wait for this we can we can go over that
thanks to the GI sub
Goofus no I didn’t hear about that guy
at all Trav that sounds interesting
makes the prime
bats sounds good
lzo I did watch that Conor and Van
Halen’s
good the arov [ __ ] making rounds I see I
just saw a lot of outrage about it I
haven’t actually learned learned about
it so we’ll do that while we’re
waiting oh yeah and we can look at the
Weinstein stuff because apparently his
conviction got overturned which is
incomprehensible everyone in the tarov
Reddit are filing lawsuits because what
they did is illegal in the EU
huh
interesting darkov really made a big boo
boo here what a
blunder look a tier one Amanda in the
reub
shadow you should probably get that even
lower I’d say
obes you’ve hypen it up Adonis I’m
expecting big
things we’ll see Quest and thanks to the
membership Jaden all right let’s take a
peek earlier today the unheard edition
of escape from tarov was announced as
part of the latest patch promising a
brand new player versus environment mode
and other
bonuses yippee now that the addition has
launched fans are not happy with the
bonus it gives and the massive $250
price tag that is a big chunk of change
that even has EA and Ubisoft doing this
right
now so just this one DLC was 250
bucks and I would not recommend the
mysterious Strat Jaden pretty much
anything else
the first issue that fans have is that
the player versus environment mode for
tarov is exclusive to those who buy the
new addition this is despite the fact
that anyone who purchased the old Edge
of Darkness Edition was promised all
future DLC content as part of the season
pass which you would think would include
this new
mode so this is false advertising is
that what they’re coming after tarov for
because they’re saying that you get all
future DLC with this and now they’re not
giving you all future
DLC all right
let’s continue a lot of fans who have
the Edge of Darkness Edition are
rightfully very annoyed they now have to
upgrade from EOD which costs $100 in
order to play it however some posts on
the official Discord have tried to
explain why BSG thinks this is not
DLC don’t please don’t tell me they’re
trying to fight their battle well
actually they push up their glasses it’s
not DLC by the technical terminology
that’s not the correct nomenclature this
is a new s player experience thus they
did not circumvent any
laws thanks membership Casey and
pisy the prime
verin that’s their whole thing it’s
semantics that’s such a weak
argument not only that there is a clip
from Landmark channel of them changing
the wording on their website live to
hide what they did I’ll check that out
it’s from
landmark and no that’s terrible Watcher
Jesus is a tier one sad and the reub
Shrek you hit a tire with a sledgehammer
already I actually did that right before
coming on the stream to spike my
testosterone levels I did like two or
three minutes of just hammering my tire
with a
sledgehammer so I’m feeling good if it
looks like I’m GL BL that’s
why it was on his twitch channel oh okay
it ain’t DLC its unique feature of the
new edition added said Discord user
appor who is the lead Community manager
at battlestate games for escape from
tarov DLC means additional downloadable
content PVE is a feature and a game mode
just because you all want it to become a
DLC it wouldn’t mean it is one It’s
featured game mode for the new addition
of the
game hey pal you just blowing from
stupid Town what what kind of weak ass
argument is
that huh that’s a lot worse than I
thought that was going to be like you
can you can probably Cobble together
some kind of cohesive argument for why
it’s not technically DLC but this is not
how you do
it apparently your people are saying
that the DMC claimed that Gary’s might
receed from Nintendo came from a
well-known yeah we we talked about that
alard but then apparently it came out
that it is Nintendo so it’s all over the
place and bloodborne remake I would
prefer the other major issues that fans
have been complaining about is the big
in-game bonus big in-game bonuses
players with the new addition will get
while their additions of the game give
some bonuses so far none have been major
factors when on the map and fighting
with other players the closest is extra
loot that they get at the start of a
wipe however this new addition includes
more space to store loot when on the map
improve skills at the start of a wipe
and a bonus where AI scabs will not
shoot at them if they have over six
reputation levels with fence so that’s
what the Pay to Win article was about
then which is an entirely separate issue
these along with some other bonuses have
led to the addition being labeled pay to
win with players who buy it expected to
have a big advantage over those who do
not the reaction to the new addition has
been so negative that all but three
channels in the official escape from
tarov Discord have been silenced with
users not able to post in them
moderators on the game subreddit are
also waving the rule that prevents
multiple posts about the same topic
saying they are just as livid about the
situation as
you you know things are reaching like
deep Defcon levels if even the subreddit
mods are like nope we’re mad about this
as well that’s when you know you have
truly [ __ ]
up hey
wolf battle State games did not respond
to my request for comment battle State
Games is yet to officially comment on
the backlash with pressure mounting from
fans and some even looking into legal
action you would expect them to do so
sooner rather than later the move also
comes at a very bad time given that gry
zone Warfare a game many see as a
competitive tarov has just wrapped up
its first public streamer test which has
gone incredibly well with fans with
public sentiment towards tarov very low
many fans are hoping to get their hands
on grone warfare sooner rather than
later here’s an update at 8:15 the
official es from tarov account has
posted a statement that seems to suggest
battle State game has no plans to make
the new mode available to anyone who
does not buy the new
addition hey guys listen we heard the
outrage [ __ ]
you bve mode is a unique feature which
is available only for owners of the
unheard Edition we will keep you updated
on new features exclusive for EOD owners
new and then they even got community
noted new game modes are generally
accepted as DLC if put behind a pay wall
battle State sold EOD with the promise
that they would receive free access to
all subsequent
DLCs so they’re even getting their ham
steamed by [ __ ] Twitter Community
notes thanks the tier one kishen N Sub
etra the anonymous gift
sub not only that there is a radio you
can call in friends mid raid to help you
as a PMC which has never been a feature
it sounds very
strong you’re still going to buy it
right brother I don’t play tarov and you
would never catch me spending 250 for a
[ __ ] DLC I don’t even buy DLC when
it’s like five bucks you think I’m going
to drop 250 clams on
this who Do You Think You Are I Am or
I’m not I would not do that that’s
craziness tarov devs are also [ __ ]
on the competitor game on Twitter that
just means that they’re kind of
desperate that’s more sad than criminal
but it seems like they’ve done violated
uh little little law here I would think
hopefully the lawsuits actually work I
guess we’ll see I don’t know if that’s
ever been successful in the past but
this seems like a pretty open and shut
case where can I see them changing the
wording on their website to avoid a
legal
issue thanks sub
GIS is it out thumby I saw the new
trailer for The berserk
animation so he said it was on his
twitch okay let me look for it then
thanks for the huge tier three Viper
welcome
aboard which subreddit is it on is it on
the normal escape from tarov
subreddit re
Woods oh here I’m imagine this is what
you’re talking about from his stream
they just changed what you get
retroactively to avoid the folks calling
them out so this is what it used to be
in the Edge of Darkness Edition increase
in-game
inventory init initially increase
reputation with all Merchants unique
identifier in the game free access to
all subsequent DLCs season pass secure
container
3×3 and then in their updated one which
I guess happened Live While Landmark was
streaming it
was
wait am am I am I the Biggest Loser on
the beach what changed unique identifier
in the game free access to all
subsequent DLC season pass oh such such
as escape from tarov
Arena so they made like an ex like an
exclusion like a specifier or wait no
which one’s which one’s new and which
one’s
old I feel like this is is old this is
new oh no it’s right is old left is
new I feel like this doesn’t really
change
anything I actually thought here they’d
be like no no we metant things like a
Arena and nothing else here it’s like
okay this is so much more open-ended so
it’s everything
no I’ve never heard of that chos
sky and I don’t know if I’m play the
crab game yet right is old cuz has way
back machine at the top oh good ey
you’re
right they changed it so Arena just
doesn’t count as DLC
anymore oh
oh I
see I guess that makes sense but like
ites it still doesn’t change like the
core they’re still saying free access to
all subsequent DLC which undoubtedly
that PVE mode is like there’s no
argument you can make that it’s not like
no good argument none that would hold up
to
scrutiny Boomer I thought they changed
the wording entirely to just get rid of
the subsequent DLC thing
oh and they did also remove the word
unique so instead of unique secure
container it’s now just secure
container
interesting hey Autumn yeah my day’s
been all right and yeah I saw the Logan
Paul stuff we talked about it yesterday
oh I’m sorry to hear that alard that’s
unlucky and thanks
voed everyone with EOD got arena for
free already too
but
okay what an interesting little mess
they’ve created for
themselves CU this is from 2023 we need
I need to see from today who’s got I
literally pulled this up on stream who’s
got
it okay well I think I get it
now oh here’s the lawsuit
update so I’m guessing they’re going for
a class
action I’ve talked
withc National Agency for cons Jesus
customer protection again the only way
we can solve this is if we make formal
complaints to BSG about this they are
left unresolved for 30 days we can
proceed with the lawsuit no problem if
the answer negatively we can proceed I
suggest you all to do formal complaints
as BSG make them have a thousand
lawsuits at once this is available for
Europe the 30 days
thing man that severely underpaid social
media guy for for BSG is going to have
the worst 30 days of his life meanwhile
all the big wigs are just going to be
counting their money from the whales
that won’t be able to contain themselves
scratching at the neck and spinning the
250
I I saw Taylor I know how bad it gets
but I wasn’t going to go through the
entire thing it’s terrible though and no
I didn’t know that was coming out
tomorrow
Elijah yep I got the cliff notes on
Velma season 2 I will not be hate
watching
it not this
time the game’s not out yet game comes
out in 55 minutes
it’s getting
there been playing tarov for like eight
years this hurts man yeah I don’t even
play tarov and this is pretty painful
just to read I I don’t know how they
thought this would go over well that’s a
that’s something that I just can’t wrap
my head around like it’s 2024 these
companies hire techsavvy people they
have social media experts they have
these think tanks and focus groups and
yet somehow these kind of decisions
still go through there really must just
be this epidemic of people that spend
money no matter what and say nothing
like this has to somehow be profitable
for them cuz it happens too
often I don’t know I don’t think I’ll Mo
meter albums again Dylan probably
not but I also don’t know that one what
what problem is that said
Michael I think BSG is just really St
for cash right now not even I’m not
talking about just BSG I mean in general
like I like across the board we keep
seeing these kinds of outrageously
stupid decisions that obviously
everybody is going to
hate like example Watcher like that’s
not even a business like BSG it’s a
totally separate thing Watcher thinking
that they’re going to somehow get a
positive response to charging $6 a month
for the free content they are producing
on YouTube like how does that even make
it past an ideation
stage than re
subor probably the first one sunny I
thought about that a lot it’s a classic
Reddit
thing one more hour 50 minutes
52 52
minutes you starting from where you left
off in the demo or beginning I’m just
going to go
beginning [ __ ] just want money
but this is like the worst way of going
about it cuz
it’s like it sacrifices the long
term and I just don’t even think it
works in the short term either like the
amount of money tarov will lose from
this is not going to offset the amount
that it’s going to make in the first I
don’t know couple of days I guess it
just doesn’t
compute it’s not a good business
decision no matter what you’re looking
for thanks you GI so Breezy cumer May
Cry is actually a great [ __ ] title
scoots definitely works in the short
terms and it definitely works in the
short term sadly too many fomo impulse
buyers yeah I’d just love to see the
data on that
I really would I’m so
curious thanks for you sub
Uzi nah probably not that’s definitely
not a good investment Moi that would be
terrible as a
strategy it’s an exit strategy they’ve
been saying how tarov was just a way for
them to fund a future project maybe in
the beginning but this is a huge game
and it has been for a long time and this
is not going to be
a strong exit strategy I don’t
think I just really can’t see there
being too many people excited about
paying 250 or if you already had the EOD
Edition
100 I don’t know it just doesn’t seem
like it’ll work as an exit
strategy sub
poos you’ll see misguided I played the
demo it was really
fun thanks to the membership nanaha
nanaha and momento
the big problem is them changing the
promise oh and that’s not even the I
mean that is a big problem but to me the
biggest problem is just like this
outrageous price point that they thought
was going to work even if there was no
broken
promises I still feel like most people
would see 250 for some [ __ ] DLC and
scoff look at Star Wars Outlaws for
example granted you get a lot more out
of this for 250 than you do out of Star
Wars Outlaws for 130 but even still
those prices are [ __ ] insano
style that’s profound wisdom Carl thank
you for sharing
that yep we’ll eventually get to Gears 3
there’s just been a lot we’ve been doing
in the meantime with Siege grinding and
now stellar
BL I am not going to be watching VMA 2 I
won’t hate watch it this
time I do know about the
spoiler I saw it’s everywhere and we
still have the Mobi Huges thanks for re
sub
KY when does the game come out here I’ll
just you can just ask me it comes out in
47 minutes
no we don’t do that kind of stuff
anymore
Andy oh yeah yeah yeah the Gary Newman
treat the Gary Newman tweets thanks for
reminding
me keep forgetting that I can’t access
Twitter like the real Twitter without
being logged in

the uh the fake stuff thanks for five
gift Subs mitsky tier one easy
