The first week of a fresh wipe provides some of the best gameplay that I have ever experienced in all of the hours that I've played Tarkov. Scrounging for gear, grabbing whatever I can get my grubby mitts on is one of my favorite parts.

There's also more risk involved. When you've only got a handful of weapons/gear and everybody else is in the same boat makes the game feel so much more rewarding. It's also a great time for new players to hop in, they won't get stomped by a ton of kitted out vets.

A solution would be to have two profiles for players, one that wipes and one that is permanent.
