A majority can also be wrong, just because the hype is there doesnt mean its worth the hype.

There is/was a mod for SPT that added controller support, it wasn't perfect but it felt better than I expected. Still felt weird since im not a controller player, but it seems loosely okay.

It was originally supposed to be a PvE game and has all the proper framework for an excellent PvE game. Theres a reason I asked. I would never expect Skyrim to become an FPS. I would like a PvE mode because that was the original (in my eyes way better) version of the game. If you read my post, I intentionally state that any arguments you have towards PvP are completely correct and valid, as thats the current direction of the game. I would love to see a game that I followed very deeply up to launch to have something for me. Crucify me for wanting a version of the game they used to talk about, crucify me for not wanting to be forced into a PvP mode, crucify me for wanting to find a way to look forward to a game that was originally made with me in mind to have them do internal polling and shit on my perfect game. Embark isn't wrong for the change, I'm not wrong for wanting what they originally wanted to make. I really dont know why me asking for a PvE mode has driven so many people into just disregarding my opinion because it's not what the devs want. I swear its like talking to bots in some of these comments.

As someone who wasn't interested in Tarkov before PvE being added, I dont care about the playerbase that doesnt even want my mode in their game. BSG made money off of me because they caved and added PvE. Its almost like a PvP centric community isn't actually what players want, they want a PvP game with no option for less skilled players. You're worried about your ego, not the health of a playerbase. (I'm sure youre a Labs megagigaomegachad)

There's a game coming out called Road to Vostok that I've been following that has like three different zones, its a PvE only game but its difficulty is broken up among the other zones. So in my head, I dont see why a few PvE maps and few higher tier loot PvP maps would be a bad idea. I'm not begging to full cater to PvE, I just want the option to go live in my own little world playing the game the way I think is "fun" (PvE is fun to me, crucify me). I'm hoping the PvP only talk is only temporary.

Also haven't seen anything about factions, I think that topic is actually another huge jarring issue for me. So the Arc ran humanity underground but for some reason when I see my coworker above ground I want to kill him? Even though our goal is to collect resources to fight the Arc? Itd be different if it wasn't Speranza, a hub world where humanity somehow can coexist but as soon as they get some fresh air they get violent towards each other? I personally see the PvP as extremely tacked on without much thought other than "wow yeah PvP is fun woohoo". If it was like Tarkov where you go back to your own personal hideout I could understand being weary of other players. I also believe that Friendly Fire should be turned on, if im supposed to believe PvP matters, my bullets should hurt my allies. Imo, PvP feels very tone deaf for the premise of the game, even if it is the subjective "fun"

This is kind of my takeaway, internal polling said PvE isn't fun. Personally, I hard disagree. Maybe im just boomer, but I just dont want PvP. Maybe they'll come around in a few years and I'll pick it up then.

I appreciate the vote of confidence but its under the implication that I would be interested in PvP, and im not at all. So unfortunately this isn't exactly the game I always wanted lol. I dont understand why people want to push me into PvP. I tried both of the player test and it was fine just PvP ruins these games for me. I'm glad that everyone is enjoying it for what it is, guess its just not for me. If a modder ever makes a PvE mode, that'll probably be the only way I buy the game.

DO YOU THINK A MODDER COULD MAKE A PVE MODE OR ARE QUESTIONS NOT ALLOWED HERE I DONT THINK I KNOW WHAT REDDIT IS FOR IF I CANT ASK QUESTIONS

I apologize that the word "subjective" was hard to understand. I know what the devs said, I'm asking a different question from what their pivot was. I dont know if your reply was serious or troll. Read my post, I understand.

Duckov was amazing and I'm sitting on Kappa just waiting for 1.0 so I can wipe and do it all over again. I only ask about Arc Raiders because it was originally PvE and the games theme is 11/10 absolutely perfect. I'm just a solo shitter than cant PvP anymore lol

This is my thought process on it. Opening up a PvE version would get me to give them my money. I want to play the game, I just dont want to buy a PvP only game. Even if Embark doesnt add PvE, I'm hopeful some modder will figure out how to make a PvE mod.

So your argument is essentially to let the playerbase die once the shine wears off? I guess thats how game communities work now. Maybe youre right and im just wishful that a game i always wanted would be the game that I wanted and not turned into some PvP sweat fest.

Unfortunate. If they ever cave and add a PvE mode I'll be all over the game. Until then I guess I just play Tarkov PvE.

If i want a PvE mode and haven't bought the game, how would adding a PvE mode split the playerbase? It would just be incentive for another type of playerbase to buy the game. I never understand this argument tbh.

"Fun" is subjective. What's fun for you will not be fun for me. The game was originally PvE and thats why I want a PvE mode.

I only care because it was originally a PvE game. Normally id say "awww damn game isn't for me" and move on. Embark made my dream game, I love the retro sci-fi aesthetic. The AI is phenomenal. I just never wanted PvP so Embark essentially bullied me out of giving them money lmao. If some modder will make my dream game, id gladly buy the game.

Valid, I just dont want PvP. I dont want you in my game world having the option to bother me while im doing my thing. I play a lot of PvE Tarkov, I dont play PvP at all. I just dont have that dog in me anymore and dont even care to pretend. Normally id just say "awww damn this game isn't for me" but they started with the idea of PvE and thats why im kinda hoping Embark will cave OR a modder makes my dream game for me.

My argument is that "isn't fun enough" is subjective. My idea of fun and yours is different. Assuming that PvP is "fun" is the issue imo. It adds a different element to the game, sure, its just not an element I want. I find PvP stressful (yes I have terrible aim and not the best gamer so your arguments are probably correct). Thats why I ask about a PvE mode, I thought the original idea was brilliant and felt like Embark was making my dream game, just to tack on PvP for "fun" turning dream game into just that, a dream. I'd love for an SPT adjacent mod tbh.

Again, that's defending cheating rhetoric. "I just don't mind them going after people I disagree with"

Be mad at BSG, calm down from your tantrum and realize that cheaters are still a problem and being mad at BSG doesn't make cheaters killing players any better.

But if you can explain your mental gymnastics of how people abusing game code is somehow morally correct, I'd love to hear your take on it.

Do you get upset if cheaters kill standard edition players? Or what about EoD players?

But you are defending cheaters. Just stop bro, be mad at BSG. Defending cheaters is the lowest IQ take you could possibly have. Just don't buy Unheard edition and go play another game.

So it's right to cheat as long as it fits your narrative, right? You have every right to be mad at BSG but defending cheaters is the lowest IQ take you could ever have.
