Casual Players want SP / COOP support!

March 9, 2020

I've come to notice I ain't the only one who wants Singleplayer or COOP support!
I'm sick of the servers, tired of cheaters. I would honestly think twice about buying Tarkov if I only had the game expierence I had now. Seriouslly.

SCAV's are hard enough as it is. My survival rating was as low as 8% outa 70 games played. I don't need to be reminded how much I suck at video games or that PC games are full of hacks, I can't trust RANDOM's for the life of me. Let's be real here. There is cheaters, hackers, pro gamers & modders & casual gamers.

The casual gamers are gonna mod this game & make it SP COOP support if you don't do it first. Infact, the community has already been working on it, like 20k users are playing EFT either alone or with friends. I highly suggest you "Battlestate games" re-think the PvE position of this game or you will lose your customers. Big facts! I'm actually super excited of the idea to play Singleplayer or coop with friends, I hoenstly could care less about these broken hacked servers.

Fix your game & servers & give casual players there SP or Coopertive expierence!

lol 70$ CAD on this base game and half the time I can't even play it. This isn't gonna be something you can just shutdown. Modders mod, and thats PC Gaming!
Anywayz, that's my two sense, really upto the dev's to actually capitalize on the COOP PvE casual player market...

Best of luck on the battlefield!

Just some simple idea's almost anyone can come up with.
There is so many way's you can make it work. Make a offline PvE gamemode seperated obviouslly from the PvP game servers so the customer can play without internet connection & be happy it doesn't change progression on PvP servers keeping the die hard pro players happy & content. The offline mode is a pretty importent one in you ask me. I hate having this game that reminds me i'm not able to play it offline or do anything with it offline....

Make things super easy by making the SinglePlayer actually a PvE coop all-in-one. Que with friends would be posible. You can do so many cool things with the game mechanics, the keys, etc. You can lock each map behind coop levels or keys, have set requirments or rewards. The idea's could almost be endless. Increase scav numbers, decrease loot chance, add random AI PMC's, bosses, etc. Most importent would be keeping the databases seperated from the PvP!

PC Gamers have come very custom to the settings of games. Almsot every gamer knows how to mod & change things around to their liking. If these plans are not gonna happen, I'm sure others will do it for us, & if i'm being honest, I can't wait! lol TY Unity engine.

Wouldn't necessarily want a "SP" or "CO-OP" in the traditional sense personally. I do believe that an "offline mode" with the ability to bring in friends and/or form 2 "teams" would be nice. I think this would allow teams to learn the maps and work with each other on cohesion with regards to how people play together. Allowing for "2 teams" of PMCs or 1 side PMC, the other SCAV, etc.,would help mix it up and allow for the creation of tactics. This would be without experience gain or the ability to profit (goods/weapons) at the end of match just like the current "offline" mode does so that people could not get "fat" by simply running this game style.

Perhaps even find a way to work in a tournament/ladder match system for larger groups down the road if that is a type of competitive gameplay considered.

The database would be seperated / LOCAL on the players machine & there for have no impact on you're gamemode online for PvP. The only players you will lose are the ones looking for casual gameplay.

I like the idea of having a separate game mode for a coop experience, maybe even a whole separate client to keep loot pools separate. I just picked up the game and don't have a lot of time to sink into it to learn the gun mechanics quick enough or to a high enough level as many of the players on this game do. I fully accept the title of a casual noob here, and I would like to see a sect of the game where I can play and progress in a PvE way and keeping that separate from the PvPvE version of the game that is currently live. If this different game mode were to be implemented, it would have to remain separate from the game to keep from destroying the economy and letting players get over geared.

Fully agree there. I don't specially have time nore skills to compete in this game and I'm basically fresh meat for over players, to the point where I don't even want to play the game anymore (and prefer watching big streamers play it for me lmao). While I still find the game amazing. A solo/coop experience would be amazing.

How dare BSG not placate to all skill levels. Don't they know low skill level people have feels too?

Your suggestion input however becomes worthless as you are not fighting contemporary enemies capable of outplaying you. You miss the whole point of Tarkov which is the hostile environment that reacts to you (cheaters excluded) You miss getting shot by ammo types you can't armor against, or getting hunted like a tagged feral animal by somebody with a brain. Single player offline Tarkov would be a very hollow and boring experience.

For you. There are more people out there, you know?

no thanks. Multiplayer only stick with original idea and bring this game to the top. Because original idea will bring it to the top.

It is not going to happen.

Never say never. Apparently they are going to make offline PvE a separate co-op PvE mode/server with it's own progression, stash and flea market. Frankly I can't help but sense a lot of spite from the hardcore PvPers, as if a PvE mode will subtract from their experience when all it will do in reality is ensure they go up against the more competent players thus have more intense fights more often PLUS the game and devs get to benefit from attracting an entire demographic of PvE focused players whom they would not have the custom of had they not implemented a true solo/co-op PvE mode.

It's win win, the PvPers still get their game, and it IS still the same game just with an extra mode........... I swear, only in the last decade have people started to act like less choice/options is better, it's bizarre to me.

co-op PvE mode with progression confirmed here, jump to 4 mins if time stamp doesn't work for some reason https://youtu.be/4KClPaG5UGc?t=238

This game is already 95% PVE content, with all the rats like Klean, Tweak and other big influencers.

The little PVP community in this game is getting fucked over and over and over and over.

You get forced to task and you get forced to farm items and play pve trash.

The found in raid gave the PVP communty almost the last hit to stop playing. Found in raid should not include player items.

This game is not Diablo or Rust, this game is still a shooter.

''The little PVP community in this game is getting fucked over and over and over and over.'' To be honest from what you've said it sounds like you want PvP only and I don't think that was ever the intent at all.... in fact if I remember correctly everything is supposed to be joined in one big open world with scav AIs so hard that bears and usec are forced to join forces to survive rather than fight each other, in other words PvP was only ever an aspect not the whole.

Forced to farm? It is a looter game at it's core, unless you're just going to give players free loadouts of course you have to farm, how else would you do it?

''This game is not Diablo or Rust, this game is still a shooter.'' Not following your complaint tbh, this games has always been a survival shooter, survival games tend to have a lot of loot and resource management. Buy hey, aren't they adding an arena mode? that's just pure PvP with set loadouts so there is that.

I double and triple the idea of separate PvE servers, It would greatly make my interest grow in the game. PvP harcore bois will have their fun even more and PvE focused players will be happy as their butt won't be kicked 90% of the time by one-tapper jumpy bois.

away from PVE Servers, it should not be so hard to implement an offline COOP mode for playing with friends to train scav games without profit. jsut like the normal offline raids but with friends. want to show them anything before go in a real raid.

No, that is actually the entire intent of Tarkov. Nikita has gone on record many times saying that a COOP or offline PVE goes against the entire survival aspect of Tarkov. You are supposed to get into PVP even if you do not like it.

+1 Tired of hackers, hardcore boys, and meta abusers.

Late wipe is imposible without meta guns and ammo

Good to see this post. I was buying the game, but I'll wait to play SP or COOP. Thanks for the feedback.

January 23

for this to be satisfying as a PVE/coop game there would be to be a lot of work done especially on making AI routines feel more varied. Personally, id rather BSG gave you all the finger and invested those resources/time into fixing pertinent issues, like the poo netcode which is set to be even more busted when they attempt to add more players and bigger maps.

If you want a coop tac-shooter, ground branch is what you should be looking at since it is focused on that from the very outset.

Was mentioned in a podcast ages ago that coop offline mode needed new features in the game that also would make it easier for cheat creators to make their cheat code. So it would not happen. But maybe in the future they would set up some servers that worked like offline mode where you could play with your friends. But to be honest I do not think this will happen.

Pretty sure it's not confirmed that it's going to be coming to the game at some point after. Pretty sure they backtracked

NIkita also explained BSG wants this because it's unpredictable. In its current state KOS PvP is the norm. There is nothing unpredictable about it. People are asking COOP or even single player because they are tired of killing everything and everyone in raid and in turn being killed.

Other survival games meanwhile have more variation in player interactions. They discourage violent interactions by having the possibleconsequences that violence be severe. In EfT there is no consequences other than losing gear which you bought by selling stuff you stuffed into you SC on a previous run. In other survival games you have to take into consideration that even if you win a fight that might cost you a leg so you're going to have harder time after engaging in a fight that doesn't actually benefit you, other than score you a pmc kill and that may cause you your life and gear further on. There is no tactical advantage in letting someone go in EfT popping painkillers (before and after fights) and performing intensive surgery in under 30s saw to that. Its becoming obvously clear Tarkov is becoming a tactical shooter with as deep tactical choices as CS:GO with power armors and medpacks and as a result for me just as "realistic".

so they should go and play diffrent game.

Somehow i dont play fortnite and complain that i am tired of building towers or other structures all the time.
You know why? Cause fortnite is not a game for me.

Bought Multiplayer FPS -> Complaining about PvP, something here is just not right...
It's like buying racing game and complaining that u have to race in it!

Oh and about Topic (doesnt amtter it was created almost year ago)
Not "Casual players want SP and COOP" but just ppl who bought EFT without knowing what they buy.

Only i find it's ultra funny, that all those ppl can't read? BSg said multiple time (if not thousands already) there will be no Coop or SP in Tarkov, there will be next project which will be SP tho.
SO all complains, wishes wont change that :D.
