I’ve never played Tarkov before but I feel like I hate this dude.

Between matches I decided to stop tik tok doom scrolling and practicing guitar exclusively and over the past two months my skill lever has sky rocketed. What kinda stuff do you guys do in the 5 minutes waiting on a match to pop?

Long story short, my brother likes DMZ but hates having people come out of nowhere and killing him. I love the PvP aspect, but I can only do so much when we have a full team on us.

So yeah, is there a game like that that keeps the PvP out unless you knowingly enter the area, like The Division's Dark Zone?

Editing for clarity: First person only, so no Division or the like. Semi realistic mechanics, no bullet sponge enemies, and you can die just as quick. Military or apocalyptic real world scenario, so no zombies or aliens. Resource gathering and quests to run, like EfT, with base building being an optional mechanic.

This map has a ridiculously awful map design - spawns are so fucked that basically if you spawn in some places you are most likely dead because of a huge advantage other spawn have on you, hills so large and complicated it is impossible to spot someone on it and extremely quick play scav spawns. It is beyond me how anybody can like this map. I just ran from place to place for 10 minutes straight getting shot from 3 different hills untill I had nowhere to run.

Fuck this map and fuck campers

End of rant

Obviously not finished at all but I am so happy that the first prototype of the inventory is working.

Did not take me about 3 months and like 4 iterations... :)

Arena Even yesterday at peak time a lot of streamers were fed up with Arena, the few I tuned into like Summit and Lvndmark all said if it wasn't for them signing up for the Tournament later they would have quit playing it. The devs working on Arena should be told to do whatever major things they can and pack it up.

Summary:

1. Low boss spawn rate - impossible mission for casuals

2. The game needs casual players to survive in the long-term

3. "I rather want hatchet runners in my raid than have cheaters "

4. FIR system: no more hatchet runners - Carry service drastically increased (more cheaters)

5. "BSG needs to stop making the game around cheaters and full-time streamers "

video:

- "Should I buy this game? I come from FortCounterRainbowZ and I was good!"

- "Other Scav players are meanie to me!"

- "Cheaters, Cheaters Everywhere!"

- "Cheaters?! Haven't found one in 42069 raids!"

- "This profile? Sus or not?"

- "Just started, do I need to keep toilet paper?"

- "AI Scavs kill me and I'm mad!"

- "Spawns are broken! I always die in the first minute!"

and my favorite...

- "This game could be very good, but in it's actual state I'm leaving for next wipe!"

if only reddit had a search bar...

Cheers to all the PMC's out there, gatekeeping Norvinsk from these little bitches! na zdorovye

Hello there,

I'm Big Bad Beaver, a content creator on and . I mainly play (as you can guess) Project Zomboid, and I wanted to share with the community a project I am preparing to release this Saturday. For the past few months, I've been working with a team of developers on a mod called Remnants of Kentucky, a multiplayer PvPvE extraction gamemode heavily inspired by games like Escape from Tarkov.

The story...

Taking place countless years after the Knox Event, humanity is on the brink of collapse. With most transformed into monsters, those left standing consider themselves the Remnants of Kentucky- survivors loosely held together through a collection of settlements, all vying for the last little bit of food and supplies.

With rumors of an untouched stockpile of gear at nearby Bria Island, the very balance of power is now up for grabs. Using the last bit of their resources, each settlement sends scavengers down to collect as many supplies as possible- by any means necessary.

How do you play?

Before stepping foot onto Bria Island, survivors will start in their safehouse- their own private space away from the horrors of the apocalypse. Here, you can customize your loadout, organize your stash, purchase and sell items through the in-game shop, and prepare for the battle ahead. In between rounds, you can even spend time decorating your base with furniture and knick-knacks you collect while playing!

When the round begins, you'll appear in a random location on the island, with 20 minutes on the clock. Your goal is to collect as much gear as possible- ranging from essentials like food and medicine, to more frivolous goods like clothes or toy plushies. Each location on the island has something unique to offer, like the military bases, loaded with ammunition and weaponry. Plan your route carefully and make sure you bring a bag!

Time is not on your side. The longer you stay on the island, the more zombies will come. Make sure you check your map for the marked extraction zones and leave before the timer hits zero. You don't want to be there when the horde arrives...

Throughout all of this, zombies won't be the only threat out there. Other survivors from rival settlements are here for the same goal. While you don't need to fight other players, the question remains: will you trust your fellow man, or will you take no chances?

Launching March 2nd!

I am hosting a big launch party for Remnants of Kentucky live on Twitch this Saturday, March 2nd, at 9:30 PM ET, complete with special guests, some giveaways, surprises and later on in the evening, some community matches. During the event, Remnants of Kentucky will be officially released to the public and anyone will be able to host their own Remnants of Kentucky server!

Remnants of Kentucky supports up to 16 players at a time in a round, and supports popular mods, including VFE, Brita's Armor Mod, and more.

The first version of Remnants of Kentucky won't be perfect, as many people familiar with PZ's net code and PvP systems know. However, I hope to continue supporting the mod into the future with new content, features, bug fixes, balance tweaks, additional mod compatibility, and support for build 42 when that drops.

For now, I would love to have you all join the Remnants of Kentucky launch party live on this Saturday!

If you have questions in the meantime, I'll do my best to answer them in this post!
