Tarkov studio claims it actually doesn't have the server capacity for everyone who bought the game for $150 to play its upcoming PvE mode, still wants players to pay extra
Tarkov studio claims it actually doesn't have the server capacity for everyone who bought the game for $150 to play its upcoming PvE mode, still wants players to pay extra
Battlestate Games continues to assert that this upcoming mode does not constitute "DLC," and is thus not part of the $150 bundle.

They are a Russian Developer with contacts to military units who support the war in Ukraine and also mocked Ukrainian with screenshots in their game...so why expect you no shitty behavior from them?
Stop supporting them and let their game fail.
Sources:
Source? I would love to confirm this. If it's true I will stop playing instantly
From what I found they have made no comment other than “they will not leave any markets due to war”
As for being Russian
"We have a mix of talent, some veteran developers, some new to game development. But everyone loves guns and FPS games. One of the studio leads is actually a former Spetsnaz officer, the Russian equivalent of the U.S. Special Forces."
I am aware they are Russian, and I don't expect them to actively condemn the invasion, as it would be dangerous for them. If there is proof they were actively supporting the war or mocking Ukraine, that's a different story.
I am aware they aren’t Russian
they are a Russian developer, they moved their office to london but still maintain their office in St. Petersburg
Sorry typo.
Thank you
They moved their office to London (wonder why...) but part of the team still works from their origin in Russian St. Petersburg. And here is what I've found:
And this happened more than once, so that is a long-term partnership. Buyanov recorded joint videos with Dmitry “Goblin” Puchkov, a Russian translator and blogger known for his anti-Ukrainian stance. And Puchkov himself was a guest at the Battlestate Games studio.
Nikita Buyanov and his company actively partnered with companies in the Russian military-industrial complex. This group actively funds and supplies separatists, they ask for donations to supply their members who are going to fight in Ukraine, they participate in podcasts from occupied cities and Tarkov's developers prop up their platform by including them (in no small capacity) in their game.
One of the new traders they are planning to add into the game is named "Khokhol" which is an anti-Ukrainian ethnic slur used by russians. There is also a feature in the game where you can become a character called a "Scav" when you become one you are assigned a random russian name, sometimes they are memes like "garandthumb" or "robokop" but in their depravity, there is a chance that your character can be named "Hohol" which you see when you die, or other players see when you kill them.
The developers of Escape from Tarkov, the Russian studio Battlestate Games, have published several new screenshots of the game. As Artem Lys noticed, on one of them the character shows the middle finger to the player in pixel uniform and with yellow tape on his hand, which clearly symbolizes the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
