Comment on After stretching the definition of 'beta' for 8 years, Escape From Tarkov is finally hitting 1.0

Super hyped for 1.0, been playing for about 2 years now 1.4kish hours and its just gets more fun with every update. Can't wait to actually be able to escape. Perfect game if you want an FPS that doesn't require turbo fast uber accurate wrist breaking flick shots. Hell chilling in one place for 5-10 is a smart strategy sometimes.

Really looking forward to getting back into this. I keep trying these fast past multiplayer shooters and I generally get wrecked. Picked up EFT a few years ago and really enjoyed. Do you have any advice on finding groups to play with? I’m sure their discord has a LFG channel most likely.

Honestly a good way I found is with small streamers on twitch. Find someone who looks cool and say hi, most of the community is nice and if you ask for help on quests or if they play with viewers a good amount will say yes. This leads to getting into smaller discords with generally pretty cool people in them. Some of my recommendations are MortakkW, WhosJason, and McHayla. All pretty good people. All different vibes.

I can’t speak to those streamers in particular but Anissem (and whoever else) should understand that milsims inherently attract chuds. And Tarkov above and beyond because nikita and BSG are… very very very pro-russia.
Not saying that everyone who plays tarkov is a fascy chud. But if you are looking for a community to hang out in, maybe listen for some dog whistles.
Which is why I wish Incursion Red River had taken off more. Set in fantasy war that never ended Vietnam so it is borderline The Last Jedi in that chuds just can’t talk about it without spewing hatred and bigotry.

Kind of off topic, but one of the most popular modders for SPT, SolarInt (who created the massive AI overhaul SAIN), is actually hired by the team behind Incursion Red River to upgrade their enemy AI behavior!
Apparently he called BSG and never heard anything back - their loss XD
