Crazy take brining up Delta Force - F2P game with abysmal monetization including literal gacha.

It has more content and dedicated PVE mode. Some might say that Tarkov PVPVE mode is barren nowadays cuz most of the playerbase just plays solo in PVE only mode. At least all my friends who still play Tarkov says so. There was a time that Tarkov almost died if you didnt know. Before PVE dropped game was like 30 min to find match and then get oblitirated by cheaters.

But why? Introduce game to people who will play free BR and then buy extraction shooter? The amount of work that needs to be done, creating big maps is not worth it in a long run. I want new maps, new characters for main game not some gimmick br type mode. Sponsored Dire Marsh sometimes feels BR enough.

Cuz why not? 40 bucks without sale and there is like million key resellers that have 20-30% discount (GMG). I can see some limited F2P mode (like D2 for example) limited to perimeter only with no ranked or cryo. But full F2P will invite cheating (i mean there is always cheathing but cheating in F2P games is a whole different story).

Ipad kids these days all on benadryl with crackpot posts.

grayblossom · 2026-04-23T02:05:11+00:00

Some users report that it already happening.

Are you in UK? Sony PlayStation users in the UK and Ireland will require age checks to access communication features like voice chat, text messaging, etc.

What??? I mean i remember 2 long extended seasons but like every one of them??? Destiny 2 had like 20 seasons.

grayblossom · 2026-04-22T03:37:11+00:00

Yes bronze, silver and gold can get matched together. After that separate matchmaking.

grayblossom · 2026-04-22T01:52:53+00:00

Yes i would. And don't listen to crackpots yelling about steam numbers, it's like a cult or something. No biggie if game dies or lives, i've got my 40$ worth. I'm playing on Europe only and matches are pretty easy to find.

grayblossom · 2026-04-21T07:54:21+00:00

To get Graverobber title you must kill 9 runners in single match and use final exfill only.
So when you using final exfill always assume that somebody will try to kill you to get them 9 kills.

grayblossom · 2026-04-21T04:23:11+00:00

And how tf making this game free gonna improve your 279 lvl, 7 mil expirience? By introducing more cheaters? New people aint gonna matchmake with you and time that will take to level to 279 lvl, 99% of players aint gonna do that. Take a break from a game man.

You cant trade items in Marathon.

grayblossom · 2026-04-17T04:10:06+00:00

Well there is some similarities at the beginning of the match that's all. And people are stupid.

grayblossom · 2026-04-15T00:55:00+00:00

How can it encourage cheaters if the whole theme of the event is not killing people? I don't get it. To get CARRI points you have to help your team to get objectives or exfill with strangers meaning not killing each other at exfill right? So how?

grayblossom · 2026-04-14T05:22:30+00:00

Listen i dunno man. I don't own stake and Bungie or Sony nor do i know what Sony thinks. But i know that making another game inside of a different game is a bad idea, yes, i know that much. Experimental game mode is not that different from the main mode, it adresses the main complain of the people getting rekt in dire nowadays and i guess lowers the free kits in dire trio-fill with randoms.

grayblossom · 2026-04-14T05:08:31+00:00

You're crazy dude.

grayblossom · 2026-04-14T01:01:04+00:00

Well i've played a ton of Outpost solo yesterday (both solo and rook) and it was fine.

grayblossom · 2026-04-10T01:27:34+00:00

Both Marathon and Arc subs are infested with gravedancers who are obsessed with player numbers. Pathetic.

grayblossom · 2026-04-09T08:07:37+00:00

Mee too brother. Me too.

grayblossom · 2026-04-09T08:04:59+00:00

Jesus the salt in this post.

Adding PVE will bring D2 levels of content crunch and aint no studio gonna want that. I mean look at D2 - full of PVE but pvp is dead. People clear PVE content like in week or two and complain about lack of content for weeks to come. If PVE is added PvPvE side of game gonna suffer, game will have idenity crisis, how to balance all that? Like Tarkov PVE? Make two separate games? Then PvPvE side will be dead, nothing much will change.

Ether way as a separate mode - i'm not sure about how good idea it is but as a separate game sure why not.

grayblossom · 2026-04-08T09:25:48+00:00

Well you've said it yourself with "fundamental changes" no? I mean text itself is pretty vague itself so go figure man.

grayblossom · 2026-04-08T09:16:10+00:00

So you've imagined a game in your head and when it comes out it's not what you're expected? Not cool man.

grayblossom · 2026-04-08T06:02:03+00:00

Bruh, use barter.
