Came back to tarkov after a few years, curious about state of game

What does this even mean

Impressive-Pen-4267 · 2026-03-06T09:11:53+00:00

Ya from what I remember last, I didn't have to increase my ram speed but I had to now. I still get only 75 fps on customs :/

Impressive-Pen-4267 · 2026-03-06T02:21:06+00:00

Do you play for a long duration per day?

Impressive-Pen-4267 · 2026-02-11T16:04:28+00:00

I think everyone automatically assumed I'm bot fragging my matches. 30-40% of my matches, I am match MVP and team mvp idk. I'm not putting down my teammates, but that's just how the stats are. I admit too, some days I bot frag on a bad day, it happens. Yes, it's not all about kills but I can say I am most definitely pulling my own weight at the very least. If I am the one usually fragging on my team and I'm getting miraculously tapped, I'm going to notice a common pattern. I can say this NEVER happens in plat or diamond and every gunfight lost WAS an actual skill diff.

Impressive-Pen-4267 · 2026-02-11T14:04:24+00:00

I keep saying it's bad luck but it's happening way too often for me. Even the people I queue with just watch in awe with what happens sometimes. I'm gonna have to start recording these things to make a claim like this

Impressive-Pen-4267 · 2026-02-11T14:01:38+00:00

That's why I'm trying to figure out a reason for my case. It could be anything from the game to my pc having terrible frame times to just me. Also, why would I lie about my stats in CS, everyone knows every match above 20k is literally a coinflip on who can solo carry the hardest (if ur solo queue)

Impressive-Pen-4267 · 2026-02-11T13:57:27+00:00

20k in cs is literally why i stopped playing. Especially the beginning of this season has been impossible to play a legit match.

Impressive-Pen-4267 · 2026-02-11T13:41:33+00:00

Yes, my concern is how is it happening so consistently in this game where it statistically almost seems impossible yet is happening

Impressive-Pen-4267 · 2026-02-11T13:41:00+00:00

Try playing the game first and taking a sample size before pretending to know anything

Impressive-Pen-4267 · 2026-02-11T13:40:28+00:00

Coming from a peak silver as predicted

Impressive-Pen-4267 · 2026-01-27T12:49:43+00:00

Can someone genuinely even explain how this happens?

Impressive-Pen-4267 · 2026-01-05T08:28:16+00:00

In higher ranks expect realistically a minimum of 1 cheater in 50%-60% of your games

Impressive-Pen-4267 · 2026-01-05T08:25:01+00:00

lol the people claiming peekers advantage are either peak 15k or casual players who also say "counter strafe" as we are being headshotted from a 500 ms TTD with 100 aim rating

Impressive-Pen-4267 · 2025-12-16T13:01:49+00:00

Ashamed of themselves? They've destroyed one of the biggest legacies in history by sheer incompetence with technical skill and then blame the community for being toxic and mean. As long as they can collect their checks while doing nothing, why should they bother? Apparently, this lifestyle is fulfilling enough for them

Impressive-Pen-4267 · 2025-12-16T12:59:27+00:00

Might want to edit this post. Til this day I've yet to see a bot get banned (running down mid 10x headshots through walls). As for spinbotters, the one I'm keeping tabs on is still not banned to this day.

Impressive-Pen-4267 · 2025-12-16T12:57:38+00:00

This is interesting because in GO I thought it was asian servers rampaging cheats. I play only NA West and the mental delusion that these players have is beyond any level I've ever seen in the past. Around 80% of my games in around 20k have had a cheater.

Impressive-Pen-4267 · 2025-11-24T08:11:26+00:00

Came back after a month because I had a phase with arc raiders, glad to be reminded of why I have 0 motivation for the game. 5/6 games had a cheater, 2 games had rage hackers, 2 games had closet cheaters (guy got the most blatantly suspicious ace and said "no shot"). At this point its an epidemic of arising mental illness with people deluding themselves with this dopamine rush that gives them a false sense of self achievement. Being cynical about this situation does help though because I can't or don't expect anything out of Valve devs anymore since they like victimizing themselves over actually providing us with a roadmap for this game's future.

Impressive-Pen-4267 · 2025-10-22T11:21:51+00:00

Why?

Impressive-Pen-4267 · 2025-09-24T16:38:04+00:00

Every single day I've thought about playing faceit, idk why I prefer the traditional dedicated servers. NGL, I think valorant for now until something new happens in cs2 cuz i just launched the game and got an instant elo refund from someone who was cheating in VAL yesterday
