For those who may not know, containers are pieces of gear in Escape from Tarkov that allow players to hold extra gear on their character. However, the containers are special because gear inside the container will remain on a player’s character permanent, even if the player died and did not extract from a raid successful
Escape from Tarkov has recently exploded in popular during the last few weeks, thanks in no small part to live streaming platforms like Twitch and Mixer. While the game is currently in beta and is only available for purchase through the game’s official website, the developers are currently looking into a Steam release for the title. Right now, access to the beta through the standard edition of the game costs $44
Currently, the easiest and possibly only way for players to get the Gamma Container in Escape from Tarkov is by purchasing the Edge of Darkness limited edition of the game. The Edge of Darkness comes with an enormous variety of extra equipment for Tarkov , like a Tactical Tomohawk, a Kiver Helmet, an SV98 Sniper Rifle with a loaded mag, and, of course, the Gamma Contai
This is not the first time that Battlestate games has faced controversy for Escape From Tarkov . In 2018 the company began filing copyright infringement claims against a YouTuber for posting videos featuring its game. The YouTuber in question, Eroktic, had 47 different videos removed by YouTube because two of those E videos were alleged to contain misinformation after Eroktic stated that Battlestate had a data breach. Players have since accused Battlestate Games of abusing the system in order to remove videos that portray them in a negative light. For their part the studio claims to be innocent and that they were trying to stop Eroktic from slandering their game and comp
While I had the luxury of playing on a Press Kit Account (meaning they decked me out in the best weapons and armor available), I still felt attached to my gear and was scared to lose it every time I entered a raid: the game is high-risk/high-reward however. If you bring but a pistol, you could sneak up on a fully-geared player (which I have) and execute them and make off with all of their gear. Or, you could enter a match with a sniper, a fully-loaded M4, and armor and look to fight other equally-geared players. This is something that comes from the DayZ Mod I was talking about: there is always a fear of losing what you have accr
Part of this mode is rumored to include all of the maps together as a massive open-world zone, letting players seamlessly explore all of Tarkov in a single map. It is unclear if this mode will also include PvE or PvP gameplay, but the fact that all of the maps can be explored after launch is incredibly excit
Escape From Tarkov is still in its beta stage and will be so for the foreseeable future. At the moment there has been little indication that the company plans to add female characters to the game any time soon. The company is correct in its assessment that one developer does not define the entire company's stance on female soldiers, but after their copyright battle with Eroktic it does not help their public image. It does not aid Battlestate's cause that this controversy takes place in a world where other video games have begun to incorporate female soldiers . Hopefully by the time that _Escape From Tarkov _ gets a full launch gamers will be able play as any gender that they cho
When I first logged mouse click on Tarkovescapezone to Escape from Tarkov , __ I was confused. While that confusion is equal parts Early Access and the lack of a tutorial or guide, there was one thing that struck me from the beginning: this is a game that capitalizes on adrenaline, and rewards players who can think critically and aim t
The latest major update for the beta of Escape from Tarkov brings the game to version 0.11.0 and brings a bunch of weapons, a new location, and more. A new trailer shows off all of this and can be found at the bottom of this post, but let’s get into the deta
Twitch streamers from across the globe have taken an interest lately with Escape From Tarkov , a hardcore survival shooter created by the Russian Battlestate Games. Its unforgiving gameplay yet accessible nature makes it one of the most engaging shooters of recent mem
One of the greatest draws the game has, however, are the high fidelity graphics and sound design. While there are currently a few audio glitches which led players like me to have heart attacks because bullet impact noises will be heard much closer than intended, the game looks and feels like even more of a military simulator than ARMA III , and that's saying something. Everything from the recoil to the scope glare feels real and has a purpose. There are three ways to reload your gun for god's sake: it's a beautiful th
While currently only available in closed beta since June 2017 , Escape from Tarkov is available to pre-order from the official website, and pre-ordering the standard edition will find you getting instant access to the closed beta, pre-loading, basic stash (10x26 cells) and bonus equipment.
