Description

Escape from Tarkov is a tactical first-person shooter set in the fictional Norvinsk region of Russia, around a transition zone between Russia and Europe that serves as a gateway for trade and deals. However, the temptation has proven too much for villainous organisations looking to cash in any way they can and the area has erupted into a tense standoff between Russian forces, UN Peacekeepers and two independent PMCs (Private Military Companies).

These are: United Security (known as USEC) and BEAR. USEC was hired by the corrupt organisation Terra which was responsible for much of the turmoil, while BEAR are their opposition, hired by the Russian authorities to investigate Terra and their nefarious doings.

About the Game


The premise is very simple: entering the game has your character spawning in the forest or somewhere similar, on the edge of the map. Your job is to shoot, play and explore your way across the map until you reach your extraction point, usually way over on the other side of the city, and with plenty of excitement in between you and there!

At first, you are only armed with an axe, and you must quickly defeat someone else for their loot (unlikely if they have a gun and you don’t) or get exploring and find a working gun as soon as possible.

There is no heads-up display for this game: if you want to check your inventory, you have to do it manually, for example, counting the bullets left inside your gun. Oddly, this makes it more exciting as you become hyper aware of what you have with you at all times and counting down your shots in the middle of a battle makes you exquisitely aware of every danger lurking just around every corner.

Lots of Lovely Loot: But Choose with Care!


The ground is practically littered with valuable loot, from mobile phones to cigarettes to cash and even weapons, and it’s all there for the players to help themselves. However, be wary about what you pick up: it’s all valuable stuff, but the longer you are picking over the buildings and neighbourhoods, the longer it will take for you to get to your extraction point.

It also gives other players a good chance of stumbling across you and taking you out – which automatically causes you to lose all your hard-gathered items! It is best to load up with as many high value items as you can gather in a minute or two, and then be on your way as fast as possible.

Of course, you can always linger for a while, tempting other players in to gather loot and then taking them out while they head for your bait: this way, you get their loot to add to your own. A couple of high-value skirmishes could garner you more loot than you would have been able to collect in four times the time!

Arm Up


Weapons range from the basic and almost primitive to high-end tactical gear:

  • Axes – you start with these

  • Knives – a good way to sneak up on enemies and kill silently, without alerting their comrades

  • Handguns and Shotguns – low end guns, these will keep you handily ahead of the enemy, unless they have bigger better guns

  • Rifles – high-powered, scoped weapons that enable players to snipe you from afar. Getting your hands on one of these is a blessing and a curse: you are powerful, but you attract a lot of envious attention

    • Escape from Tarkov is available for purchase on Instant Gaming for a fraction of its retail price. You will receive an official key and be able to play the game in seconds. Play smart. Pay less.

    Tarkov is BRUTAL, make a mistake and you can lose that shiny M4 or AK that you've hoarded for days, and modified to your dreams to some person who has a thousand of them already. God forbid someone kills you with a hatchet and loses it to the in-game AI so it gets sucked into the void. In some aspects I love this about the game, you're constantly on your feet hoping you don't get domed from behind, listening to the stomping of boots and thundering booms of firearms all around you as you quiver in fear. Unlike other games that are survival based, Tarkov takes itself too seriously for my tastes. It's what it aims to be, and does it well! I just want something lighthearted and dumb, like a weapon that can one-shot people but only has 1 cartridge (Think of the Eoka or Waterpipe from Rust),or a weapon that does next to no damage but has tons of ammo in its magazine (A BB gun would be hilarious).

    The developers of this game sold a version for 150€ that would include all future DLCs. Guess what, they have created a new DLC and they want us to pay another 150€ for it. Don't purchase this game...

    The game is in beta for many years now. They said they give hardware bans to cheaters. Which is a lie. They actually benefit from cheaters, so they have no intention to fix it.

    The game used to be playable, but at the moment, it's in a terrible state. Never in my life i heard of vacuum cheats, but this game has it! Don't even mind going in a raid to look for a GPU, it's already vacumed by a cheater.

    Then we have the desync, which is a great feature many gamers like.... I stopped counting the times i died behind a wall 2 seconds after i peeked.

    I'm done. This game is an absolute mess. The gameplay can be very fun, but the cheaters in this game ruined everything. Every map with high tier loot is infested by hackers.

    You might think i'm exaggerating, then search for the video "the wiggle that killed tarkov".

    Nikita (maker of the game) even removed a system that can detect vacuum cheaters in the last patch........... Shitty company that deserves bankruptcy

    • Amazing customizations to guns
    • Nice gameplay (when not encounting cheaters)

    BSG doesn't care about it's playerbase nor do they listen to us either. I have over sixthousand hours in the game now and it's only going downhill with rampant hacking akin to the kind of hacks you would see in CS 1.6 but only now it's in this studios latest and greatest looter shooter game. Sheer incompetence from the developers as well as an adamant faith or presumably hope that Battleye are gonna save the day for them when their game engine is a steaming hot pile of you know what allowing hackers to attack the client to gain free reign over the servers. EFT is the best looter shooter I've played to date but the way things are going with the game right now I have SERIOUS doubts of the games longevity and popularity in the coming decade. (The game has already been in development for almost a decade btw)

    Horrible experience as a game in general, nothing works as you think or It's suppose to. The game is just a cash cow for the Dev's. Ton's of cheaters, Goat's video just showed us how bad it really is and what we expected all along & cheaters just keep getting better at hiding it as time goes on. I would stay away from the game unless you don't mind being frustrated consistently...

    Cheaters, Bad sound positioning, Optimalization of the game is dead. game cant handle a lot of scavs, loots, boss, players at the same time 60-100fps most of the time on 7800xt its kind of joke. Time for looting is kind of crazy(No tips for beginners, just die in rats ocean). U can looking for basic items for a 30hours... Scavs(boots) are cracked. They can shoot you in a head from 100m in one tap, when u will try it its impossible to do it. Fps in this game is joke from developers. doesnt matter if its low, medium or high settings .. How its possible... The game itself is uniqe, but devs are dont know how to optimalize the game. Its horrible to play this game without a person to introduce you into the game. Play alone its horrible. Most of the time you meet 2-3-4 man squad, full gear and you poor with mosin (who know then know how it its), whaaat you can do.

    Seriously not worth it. The learning curve takes weeks (minimum) and when you get the feel for it, the core gameplay isn’t rewarding enough to justify how obnoxious the game truly is. Awesome concept and fun to hop in a scav run with a friend, but if you’re seriously considering a new game to get into, this isn’t it.

    The game is made for players that are willing to give it hours and hours of gameplay and have a specific taste for shooter games, that is good, but what is not good is the fact that all servers are $hlt that always will have lag in the most key moments (i have confirmed this with MULTIPLE people in MULTIPLE servers) if at least that would not exist, deaths would not be that grueling as one would wonder if it was his fault or the third world connection servers that doesnt allow for the slightest joy in a unplayeable game.

    F()c/c this game i tried.

    Made an amazing game and now are ruining it with greed. They will never remove all the hackers, because thats how they get most of their money. Totally awful game developing skills, sound has been messed up for ages.

    The horrible developers rely on third parties to help their players.

    Zero info on armor and bullets from BSG. Too lazy.

    If your thinking of buying this game, just dont. Its concept is really good but when the developers of the game only care about the money they are getting and not the game itself it can get really frustrating. Instead of fixing the bugs and the horrible audio the game has they insist on adding new things. "Low resolution mode on streets of tarkov", as if streets of tarkov is the only shitty optimized map on your game. You will die repeatedly with no info as to how, no sound, people will just spawn next to you without you hearing anything. There are people that know the spawns out by heart and will just sprint to your location and kill you. The developers simply care about their payday by adding events and doing nothing but trying to get more people to buy the game. Trust me its a waste of your time, DayZ and PUBG are much better than this garbage game. If ur starting your adventure on Tarkov now, I feel sorry for you and the hours that you will put in. There is no kill cam to show you how you died, there is no spectating your teammate after you die (even though EVERYONE knows that when a teammate dies you will just open live stream on discord) but still no spectate. Full of hackers, people that play the game as if it is call of duty. How are you putting weight mechanics in the game but at the same time players can bunny hop and strafe left and right and jumpshotting as if its call of duty? developers are clueless animals. have a good one.

    I´ve played this game for 4 wipes and everything is still the same.

    There is nothing who can give me a reason to download again this game.

    The quests are the same and you will play them for dozens of time without any chance of progressing in another way, suffering through

    cheaters, exitcampers and an abnormal quantity of groups of players who will obliterate your chance of looting something "good".

    Dead game, waiting at least 9 minutes for the map to load, the loot to load and then the players for at least 1 / 5 minutes of gameplay.

    Every wipe the game becomes more and more impossible making your sanity worse.

    No tutorial only online videos.

    No RPG everything is based on some text and no answers.

    My advice? Not give your deserved money for this suffering of a game and your PC could be the best will not old this game at 60 fps stable. I promise you.

    Also this game is providing money for Russian Federation instead of focusing on new features they focus on creating mass destruction weapons in real life.

    The game is asking more than 250$ for the new edition and for me who paid 30$ i cannot have all the new things this PAY TO WIN edition gives, this is scummy is anticonsumer practises and completely disrirespectful against us players. BSG deserve to close his doors forever for this.

    I do love the game for its realism and for bringing something new to the table however it has been a down slope for the game once it started to be popular among streamers

    It has been a rapid increase of cheaters of all sorts. Pretty much 60% of the raids will have at least one cheater in the raid. This 60% refers to abvious cheating. There is a higher number of players using passive cheating like radars or wallhacks which it would likely increase this percentage by up to 80% as an estimate.

    It turns very obvious whern someone cheats or not in the game since the game it does not play at quick pace.

    Sadly, the report system and how the cheater problematic is handled falls short. Despite the effort by the support team to solve the issue, the cheating problem is on the raise. Some streamers like G0at has posted some videos pointing out the cheating problematic

    • Inmersive
