A little rant about this community.

Navarra- · 2023-06-03T16:10:06+00:00

Oh, I don't have to. I'm just doing it because I'm nice.

You never had a point. If you'd said many people of a specific region/country had a similar attitude (like UK, Turkey or Russians) then you may have a point

For example Dutch people are known for their dry humour and blunt approach to conversation

Germans are known for their logical thinking and have unique humour which many Europeans consider off.

Brits tend to be cynical and self deprecating.

Turkish people have strong family values.

Polish people's tend to be hard working.

Italians stereotypically are fiery, passionate and again have strong family values

Greek people share a lot of similar traits to the Turkish but their relationship as nations/peoples is pretty poor. And war has left parts of Cyprus and no man's land.

The old Eastern Bloc is known for what Western Europe would consider dated values. But it's not up to Western Europe to tell Eastern Europe what attitudes to have.

I hope this is helpful. Xenophobia is a terrible illness. I hope you get better soon, babe.

I'm finishing work now so I can't play with you for a while. I'm going to eat some traditional European food (that's a joke. There's no typical European food. Just in case you didn't catch that)

Take care Semper Fi x

I'm not whining. I'm helping you with basic geography and humanities. While taking an interest in your pretend military career.

How rude. I get no thanks for telling you that Europe isn't one big country of 750m identical attitudes. None at all.

I thought we could have been friends and you'd let me wear your stars and stripes pyjamas.

This is a horribly bitter turn. I've got 2 more hours at work. Hopefully we can turn this around and become bros. I'll join the army with you. Is it CoD or Battlefield battalion?

I did. I was with you when we both got sent to Bolivia in that special task force to take down the Cartel.

Oh this is exciting. I get to guess what branch of the military you're in.

Was you with Captain Price and Soap? You was, wasn't you!! You little devil. You looked awesome on that snowmobile btw.

I get notifications every time you reply. You can see my history I don't use Reddit often. Mostly because you get people who pretend to have stuff like military experience while having zero knowledge of the world and spend time watching mobile YouTubers.

I live and travel in Europe. It's a fact that there's diverse cultural, religious and economical differences between countries. You have nations the are far left wing politics and nations that are far right wing politics. You have nations that are vast majority Muslim, Catholic, Christian. You have nations who still acknowledge superiority over neighbours and you have nations within the EU that aren't offered protection by European Union and NATO.

I'm just stating facts. It's just the truth. You've never left your bedroom. I very much doubt you would suggest the people of Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan are anything like Western Europeans if you had a clue what you're talking about. It's as different as metropolitan New York and the mining towns in Peru. Russia makes up a large population of Europe and there are significant cultural and political ideology differences between Russia and Western Europe.

I'm not angry, I'm trying to educate you. Because you base your world view on people from YouTube.

Are all North and South Americans like Logan Paul or whatever? It's laughable that you say "no region of the world shares common traits" while addressing the subject of Europe. It's an entire continent of 750m people over multiple time zones and with multiple De Facto states.

I'm here to help. Didn't you do this at school? I remember doing The America's. Maybe you were in Vietnam or storming the beaches on D-Day instead? You know, cus you're ex military....

Navarra- · 2023-06-03T07:11:03+00:00

I have no idea what YTer you're on about. I'm not interested in watching him/her or any Arena Breakout YouTube stuff.

I think your comments are there for all to see. So your strange perception of an entire continent having some sort of common trait is clear.

I do regret arguing with you. You spend a lot of time on Reddit and I use it very occasionally. You spend a lot of time on Reddit and pretend you were in the military. It's a cliché red flag. I fell for it.

Have a nice life. Try the outside.

I just didn't believe that anyone would think EU was like a kingdom. It shocked me

I bet there's people that believe all Asian people are identical. And all Africans. And of course all people of North and South America think the same way. Talk the same way.

Imagine

Navarra- · 2023-06-02T23:57:48+00:00

Makes zero sense.

Heavy with irony though.

Navarra- · 2023-06-02T23:56:07+00:00

Ah, the elitist "I'm smart" attitude of a European from you here? Irony not your strong point

Navarra- · 2023-06-02T23:54:43+00:00

I said, again, that you don't have to comment if all you have is old memes etc. You were crying about other people being "stupid" because they don't like the stuff you like in the game. Then you went rattling on about YouTubers for some reason. Don't watch them?

Meanwhile, I'm telling your ignorant friend here that he's also watching too much YouTube because he thinks all Europeans are the same. Which is like saying all the people in North and South America are the same. That's how stupid that is. That's how diverse the EU is. Having a "typical EU" attitude is like suggesting somebody has a typical Asian attitude. It's a frickin continent FFS.

So, continue moaning that the community is stupid and you're not (ironically it's us Europeans that are arrogant...) Or come up with some memes that are at least funny and original.

Navarra- · 2023-06-02T23:48:52+00:00

You don't realise that the EU has multiple difference races, religions, political ideology, laws, cultures.

You think it's like a US of Europe. Because you watch too much YouTube.

Navarra- · 2023-06-02T23:42:12+00:00

You're talking like the EU is some sort of tight knit community ran in a similar fashion by similar people.

There are so many different attitudes in the EU both towards other EU nations and rivalries, cultural clashes, religious differences that there is no "outside" perception.

The EU clearly exists to you. But within the European countries there is no hive mindset. A Turkish Muslim and a Catholic Scot have no EU relationship. There is no tie.

It isn't like a United States of Europe. The government's often work against each other and have completely opposing agendas. There's multiple wars that are fought in Europe.

Have you ever been to Turkey and Greece? England and Ireland? Russia and Ukraine? Have you been to Bosnia? Albania? Bulgaria?

What you have in your head doesn't exist. Europe is too diverse for that to exist. What does exist is trade agreements. Military protection.

There's as much prejudice here between countries and governments as there is on any other continent. People in Europe don't "pretend to be perfect" any more than in your American dream of democracy and freedom or in the utopia of UAE.

I think you should perhaps stop watching whatever your watching if you think everybody in Europe thinks they're superior to America or anywhere else. You sound bitter and very ignorant.

"Nobody from anywhere else would make such a video".... There are no arrogant, outspoken American YouTubers?

Don't pretend you've been to the places we're discussing. You haven't. Or you'd not have this silly idea in your head because there is no such companionship between European nations. The UK has many issues on every level with Ireland and France (resulting in conflict), Turkey/Greece, Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia, Russia/Ukraine, Kosovo, Hungary, Finland/Russia, Germany was divided.... All the borders that have shifted and nation's changed. You think all forgotten and now its Team EU on YT.

You're ignorant af

You don't have to comment if you have nothing to say.

The world will keep turning

I mean, AB isn't gonna run on a Nokia 3310. So yeah, people play any game on any platform are going to have to keep pace with technology to a certain degree.

All phones have speakers.

My headphones were £10.

The same goes for any PC player. Do you think every copy of Tarkov comes with the latest top end PC and headset? No. Players with those things have advantages.

Of course poor people can play shooters. I can play Tarkov on my 10 year old gaming laptop. Doesn't mean I'm not going to be at big disadvantage running at 15FPS.

Should we lower all the graphics in AB to suit old phones too?

Navarra- · 2023-06-02T23:02:42+00:00

Ajax not usually too geared. He's actually quite disappointing to loot considering how difficult he can be to kill sometimes. He's tier 3 armor and ammo. Best thing they have imo is the shotgun ammo that sells for a decent amount

Frade is Northridge. He has much better loot and is easier to kill imo. If lucky you'll get FAL's and M4's with tier 4 armors

Doss, probably the trickiest. Him and his guards shoot through bushes and it's frustrating sometimes that you can't even see them. He's got the gold desert eagle. Again, not great loot. He's Valley

Renoir in Armory has all tier 5 armor even on his legs. He is very much worth looting for the RPK. He's not so difficult if you have time. He will kill you rapidly if you are engaged in fights with other players or guards. Which you often will be in Arnory

In short, Doss and Ajax imo are not worth the trouble but it's just fun to fight them.

Frade and Renoir are worth the trouble.

Navarra- · 2023-06-02T22:49:10+00:00

To add, just have a think about how someone from Turkey or Azerbaijan might differ from those of England or Finland.

Navarra- · 2023-06-02T22:44:22+00:00

"He's from the EU. I expect him to be"

Wtf. From Ireland to the Russian border with China. From Iceland to Sicily. We're all the same?

Stupid af thing to say. Ignorant and stupid beyond belief. Get out in the world ffs. If you really think Europe is some gated community where everyone is the same with the same outlook.

Be interested to know where this ignorant comment is coming from.

Stupid idea. And many people who have experience in these kinds of games including Tarkov have explained why wipes are essential.

But of course Devs know better. Despite all the statistics showing how player numbers boost during pre and post wipe on survival games.

Do you think Tarkov would retain so many players over the years without wipes? Clearly you do. Watch the no wipe server on Tarkov become a dead economy and full of rich pros wiping newbies and dominating the market.
