The Trader's Greed Event Starts Now!

[TheColdVein 4,067]

Hello, Escapers.

While players are eagerly waiting for the next major update, the Escape from Tarkov dealers have decided to cash in on that! Starting now, all loyalty levels are unlocked, and the stock of goods is unlimited, but of course, the traders won't make it too easy so the prices went up, too. Hurry up to burn that hard-earned money!

naaaah, make it cheaper

[KugelFanger 304]

yeah boi, i am feeling that wipe incomming :P. gonna burn through all my cash

[ConnorMagill 90]

Even stuff you had unlocked already is doubled, so people who had most or everything unlocked are getting screwed, and lower leveled players still won't be able to afford the most expensive good stuff, so this is a lose lose situation.

 

But hopefully this is a sign of a nearby wipe.

How so?

[P0weredge 805]

This doesn't accomplish anything beside making penetrating ammo available for everyone, you buy for double you sell for double .

[cruxer666 57]

TACTICAL NUKE INCOMING!!!

[Shibby 311]

because now everyone who is newer or hasn't played all patch like some of us have now cannot even compete with the already far ahead players. this doesnt affect me as im lvl 40+ but why didnt we do a no scav more player pvp event instead? this is counterproducitve for lots of people

 

[AlJabberwock 72]

RAAHHHHHHHR!  Cool, man.  Also Nice change-up from what was done last time.  Remember people, it isn't here to coddle you, it's here to be... TARKOV! 

[tybos 9]

Money is so easy to collect and high-end-gear is to be found everywhere. Pls do not tell us the have nothing? Even then - share your Money with them. Still enought for everyone and I guess the wipe is coming really soon. So it doesn't matter if you have nothing left...

Money Money!!!

Yeah exactly, now newer players are just going to be more frustrated and screwed during this event. They already have a much lower survival rate now it will cost them double to get everything back and they won't be making a big enough return. While players already at end game won't be majorly effected and can just curb stomp newbies even more.

 

Just wipe it

[AlJabberwock 72]

 Wait a day or three and anything you lost from start will be back, it's a wipe man... And all that stuff other people have  ?   GONE, man.  Be happy, socialist dream is coming.  

[Scholar 191]

WIpe incoming...Devs please make this game harder to level up so we don't get end game in 2 weeks...love the game but please make everything harder.  This last 2 months has been great but the game is way too easy to level up and traders prices are far too low, thx for ur hard work.

It gives those who haven't been playing long, have an idea of how max traders feel and gives everyone an even advantage...

[Starlight 281]

Well this sucks. The people who will have the least negative effect are the ones hoarding everything in their stash. Likelihood that they bring that gear now that it's twice as expensive to replace..? The only real benefit here is being able buy IFAKs and AP rounds.

I fully expect the numbers of scav players and hatchlings are going to skyrocket.

not an even advantage because the lowbies don't have nearly as much and little cash and are not nearly as experienced enough to get the kills to make more money. They can find out how max traders feel by just looking them up online.
