Ref is Still Broken in Hardcore Tarkov
(Intro) Ref has been a trader in the game for a while now. And before this wipe, he was already considered to be an arguably too powerful dealer within the world of EFT. Tons of fully modified weapons, the best ammunitions in the game, all being sold with GP coins instead of rubles. Even if you didn’t have him leveled up all the way to four, at three or even two, he still provided tons of equipment for you to use that can give you a fighting chance against other players. And with the release of this hardcore wipe, we all thought surely, surely, he would get nerfed to a point where people might dabble with his wares, but it doesn’t feel necessary in order to be successful. Well… he was nerfed, technically. But his inventory has been revealed and man, Ref is still easily the best trader in the game. His existence breaks the rules of Tarkov, and combined with this being a hardcore wipe, he ruins it completely.

Cristiano Ronaldo, Palestine, and Israel
Cristiano Ronaldo, one of the most influential athletes globally, is not just known for his football brilliance but also for the immense cultural, social, and political perceptions attached to his image. Over the years, Ronaldo has been repeatedly linked to support for the Palestinian cause, leading to widespread beliefs that he is anti-Israel or even 'hates' Israel.

Is the Hideout Worth Upgrading in Hardcore Tarkov?
(Intro) A lot of Tarkov’s elements and mechanics have changed with this hardcore wipe. One of which being the hideout. And many would argue it’s genuinely just worse off. While we no longer need found in raid items to count for the module installations and upgrades, to compromise for that BSG has made leveling up the hideout that much harder by increasing how much we need to collect. That alone is a fair trade; I use that word loosely. The things we find now don’t need a survival status to be useful, and we can still apply them to the hideout should we get sent back to our stash prematurely. But now, even after about a week of playing, I don’t even have all my modules installed to level one. It’s been a very slow process even just getting the foundation of the hideout setup. On top of that I am quickly running out of room because I have so many items I may or may not need depending on whether I keep going with the hideout or not, which is a valid question people are probably asking themselves. Which has gotten me thinking: is it even worth it to invest into the hideout this wipe? There’s more to it than just needing more items, so let’s break it down and have a conversation about the hideout within the context of this wipe and what it might look like when 1.0 releases later this year.

Tarkov’s Transit Points are Awesome but Poorly Executed
(Intro) Everyone has mixed feelings about the hardcore wipe so far. But most people seem to agree that the forced transit points to get to the other maps, was a stupid idea. On paper, it’s an interesting concept. With the marathon challenge, the ability to go from one map straight to another without offloading whatever gear you have on you was introduced. A new way for players to engage with the maps and overall, having to think about Tarkov differently whilst in that separate game mode. And once the event was over, the ability to transit was simply added to all maps after one minute of being in the raid. It’s a genuinely cool concept. And while I still personally am on board with it being the main way we get around this hardcore wipe, there are some obvious growing pains that need to an addressed soon. But before we get into what’s wrong with the transit system this wipe, let’s reflect on the marathon mode, when transit was introduced, what happened after the event, and the very recent change made to transit that can make it a viable playstyle should BSG nail down some of the problem points with the system as a whole.

Tarkov’s Hardcore Wipe is Brutal; Everyone Should Play it
(Intro) Tarkov’s hardcore wipe is officially out, and it’s brutal. Like, I didn’t think it would be this challenging. And yet, at the same time, it’s awesome, and everyone who enjoys this game needs to try this wipe. I mentioned this in the initial video going over the fact the wipe would be hardcore, that this is going to completely shake up the formula we’ve all come to know and love. Or hate, depending on who you are. It’s such a different experience knowing how much has changed, and everything else that wasn’t even detailed in the three pictures BSG posted last week. But we’re here now and it’s been a couple of days. So, let’s go over some general thoughts and impressions on this wipe so far, what has been the most fun or exciting, what has created some problem points and whether or not this idea was even worth it in the first place.

The Most Powerful Location in Tarkov Right Now
(Intro) Customs is currently home to arguably the most powerful location to hang around in the entire game. With the release of the small expansion earlier this year, it allows players to cut through the railroad tracks that overlook the new gas station and opens a brand-new building with multiple levels, tons of vantage points, and places to provide overwatch for your teammates should the situation dictate that style of play. It has become quite a popular location for all players because since it has released, most of my engagements with other players has been in or around this new building, which has been dubbed by some, the PvP building. On top of that, it’s generally center location across the map means that noise anywhere else can be rotated to with ease, making it a popular choke point for those that want to be in a dominate position to third party other fights going on across Customs. It’s just an awesome spot on the map that’s both new so people want to check it out, but with lots of different sight lines and angles that are beneficial if you take advantage of them. Of course, all of this has come at quite a cost: the performance across most areas of the map have taken a significant hit, and Customs is now probably one of the worst performing maps in the game. Either way, it feels like we haven’t had this powerful of a spot in the game since maybe D-2 being introduced. So, let’s go over what makes this new spot so strong, what the pros and cons to being there are, and the unfortunate sacrifice some players had to make for this location.

Breaking Down All the Changes for Tarkov’s Hardcore Wipe
(Intro) We know Tarkov’s July wipe will be hardcore. And now BSG has given us more information about what to expect with all the changes that are leaning this wipe into more of a hardcore experience. Some of it is very on-brand with what we were predicating it would entail. And some of it, has people very concerned with how this whole thing will play out. Over the course of the last week, BSG has put out three different pictures explaining the incoming changes to better prepare players for what they will need to adjust to when the time to wipe finally hits. Today, we will be going over each picture and each change within them to figure out what the general gameplan should be for jumping into the final wipe before 1.0. And of course, just giving general thoughts and impressions about these ideas as they are written. We don’t know how any of this is going to play out in actuality, but one thing is for sure: this will be without a doubt Tarkov’s most interesting, most unique, and most controversial wipe, in the game’s history.

The fifth season of Delta Force just dropped on Chinese servers, and let me tell you—it’s a ride. From new weapons that are redefining close and mid-range combat, to meaningful balance changes across the operator board, this update isn’t just more of the same. It’s sharper, faster, and definitely more deadly. If you’ve been sleeping on this title lately, now’s the time to jump back in. I got early access to this update and spent hours testing every tweak, and I can confidently say: this one’s a big deal.

Stop Killing Games: Why the Gaming Industry Needs to Change

Tarkov’s July Wipe will be Hardcore and I’m Both Nervous and Excited
(Intro) Tarkov’s potential penultimate wipe is happening in July, and it will be a “hardcore” wipe. What that means in the context of BSG changing how the game is played, we don’t know. However, because the idea of hardcore EFT isn’t an entirely new concept, we can glean some ideas as to what it might entail. This is huge; I never thought they would not only just flat out tell us a hardcore wipe is coming, but that they would want to experiment with something like that. One on hand, it’s kind of exciting to see where BSGs head might be regarding how players will need to navigate a much harder version of the game we all know. On the other hand, depending on what BSGs version of hardcore looks like, this could either be a fascinating and engaging experience that is now being officially supported, or a half-baked idea that kind of falls flat on its face. And knowing BSG, it’s either one or the other. So, let’s break down what hardcore is for those unaware, and what we might expect from BSGs version of this game concept.
