Escape From Tarkov studio boss says he "did not foresee" players would get mad about charging extra for PvE (www.rockpapershotgun.com)

This has to be the funniest PR disaster in video game history. "Guy did not forsee players getting mad for locking a gamemode behind a $250 edition, doubles down on it and tells people to chill out"

I’m sad I spent so much money on the EoD edition, but I’m so glad I found SPT to make the game I wanted EFT to be. Fuck BSG, I won’t play this game online and I won’t give them a single cent more.

EoD is edge of darkness. It's basically the most expensive version of the game which was originally offered and was supposed to include all subsequent dlc, hence the outrage(ridiculous pay to win features and price aside). SPT is a modded version of EFT(escape from tarkov) that let you play the game single player and added a bunch of cool stuff. BSG(Battlestate games, the publisher/dev studio) didn't like that so they would copyright videos that used SPT. It's a whole mess

So many acronyms lol. What is SPT?

Single player tarkov?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

Single Player Tarkov. It's a mod that replaces player PMCs with modified AI, plus allows the installation of numerous other mods.

Basically perfect for people who love the gunplay and gameplay loop, but don't care for the playerbase.
