i agree somewhat, while its nice that arena is succesful now, as someone that doesnt own it this wipe has been rather a struggle, with how quick other players got to the flea and leveled their traders thanks to easy leveling in arena
@vee_or_something arena is nowhere near successful. Ranked system is garbage value system non existent. And no matter what you're falling behind cuz arena didn't change anything as far as leveling
People complaining about arena dont get it. Finally people who arent good at regular tarkov or dont have enough time can run arena. Great thing in my opinion
@Joe-kl4vu yeah it's all the streamers complaining while they're almost at kappa 2 weeks into the wipe and some people haven't been able to play at all. Community is imbalanced and gatekept
Exactly what I’m thinking. I’ve been able to no life this game at times, but now that I can’t, having arena to counter having less time to play is pretty great.
It's ruined the game because now sweats don't even need to grind anymore it's too easy for everyone this was always a game about hard-core realism until he started saying it's as realistic as playable for dumb ass E sports
@stonerslawth6258 how did it ruin. Sweats will always outpace you. You can't balance this game has way to many variables (economy, bullets, armor etc) if you've played any wipe day one or two you'll unlock flea easy without arena
Just an FYI there is a bug happening when you play Arena and go back to the base game that resets progress on active quests and brings back old completed quests. Play Arena at your own risk until this is addressed.
@@dh6865 yea had this happen. Just pisses me off i just unlocked PK 3 and prap 4 and not even 24 hours later im 2+ quests away worth of rep of getting it back lmao
@Big_Billiard yeah I hit ref 3 but wasn't registering on eft so I validated files and cleared cache and that seemed to be what's caused it. You keep all the xp and rewards though just not trader rep unfortunately. Could kinda cheese easy tasks for xp with this bug if done correctly. Or cheese big rewards and keep getting them over and over.
Tarkov Arena has a potential to become its own Insurgency-style game if they add more gamemodes. I really enjoy playing arcady hardcore FPS with Tarkov mechanics.
In my opinion for scout, run an mpx, mod it out, pbp, aim for the head, had no recoil good ergo and you can have like 4 back up mags if you run the right armor
just my consipracy theory. bsg is testing arena at a accelerated pace; it wont be so quick and easy once 1.0 comes out. hype now, and maybe 1.0 release at some sort of event (twitchcon?) so this is probably gonna be a short wipe.
In 8 matches I somehow fully mastered the mp9, mp5s and most mod the m4. It definitely seems cracked playing arena first. Tritons mp5s is nasty. Did have some lag issues last night where everyone in the lobby was getting stuck in place. Has anyone had that happen before?
Man.... I started Arena today and it did reset my EFT account I've been playing for 10s of hours since last wipe now. I got my trader reputation to below what I would get if I reset the account (unheard -> 0.0)
only reason to play arena fro actual in game pogress so far is roubles and sniper level, if you just play arena get lvl 40 and a bunch of skill points you still have to do all youre quests even do they might be slightly easier
BSG will nerf arena into the ground next wipe. We know this is potentially the shortest wipe in recent history, and we know BSG doesn't want the game to be this easy. They already didn't like how quickly people had been getting kappa/end game. Personally, I'm not a fan of this, but I don't think this will continue, knowing how they usually handle things like this.
It’s funny that a ton of people are complaining about people leveling super fast and being high level quickly, bsg has lowered the skill gap in every way except game knowledge, you can body shot thicc guys with trash ammo now, it’s never been easier to kill chads, it’s just crazy how much people complain about someone getting to play the game more
Glad arena seems to be getting some love now i played with my 3 day free trial i got in june it was pretty fun. Still not gonna pay 35 usd for it though.
Tbh im conflicted, on one end its great for casual players. On the other, jesus christ there is literally no early wipe anymore. Day 2 of the wipe there were people lvl 20 and running flea kits like, early wipe is literally dead and now just 2 weeks after wipe its late wipe and i get killed by zabrallo altyn guys more then normal players. Idk if that is really beneficial to casual players
yeah, funny stuff, youre talking about buying sub to get streamer case, yea u might not get it just like me, and the support wont hellp xD ( i did buy normal sub, i did claim it on twitch with correct account etc, and i do not get anything on web nor eft xd) so there are probly more people scammed by bsg

Wish they'd let you link Arena to PvE. I love the PvP in Arena but prefer PvE for main Tarkov. Surely they want people to play Arena, and I want to play it too, but it sucks that the rewards from it aren't available to the PvE chunk of the playerbase, which disincentivizes them from play Arena and in turn from PvP itself.
@@Totaluser1 Well, yeah it's a PvP game, but the game it links with has two ways to play it, I don't see any reason you shouldn't be able to pick which version of Tarkov it links with. If anything it's a great thing to let it link with PvE because it lets people who otherwise suck at PvP have an incentive to try Arena where they can get better at it and potentially become more interested in the PvP version of main Tarkov.
@@3DProductions Money is practically useless in Arena. Arena itself gives you so much that you can siphon it off at the max million-and-a-half roubles a day they let you and you'll still never run out.
@@3DProductions Then just don't let PvE send goods back to Arena. I can't imagine a time when I'd want to, anyway. Leave Arena-PvP two-way and make Arena-PvE one-way.
I guess he's not guna mention how some lucky players get the bug that deletes task progress when you play arena. My buddy got the bug and has to re do his tushonkas and hideout upgrades and a bunch of other annoying task shit.
If they nerf Arena, people would stop playing it. I think they benefit from actually having a profitable enjoyable game on the side.

@@vee_or_something I didn't start playing arena until i hit level 30, doing marathon tasks will get you there FAST
Been loving arena so much this wipe. Haven’t opened the main game in a week. Not proud abut it but I’m having a blast with my buddies in ARENA
People complaining about arena dont get it. Finally people who arent good at regular tarkov or dont have enough time can run arena. Great thing in my opinion
Dude seriously. Sick of the sweats that hit level 42 in one week complaining that the rest of us can level up in arena and level the playing field

That explains a few quirky happenings, thanks for the memo
That syncing part has been turned off.
I must have given therapist her gas analyzer about 7 times and I can't "complete" golden swag. It just says 707 - can't complete quest
This has happened to me twice
Got this bug except all my trader rep was reset to 0.0 too
Buying EoD edition when it was on sale was the best investment I've ever made in a video game. It's the gift that keeps on giving!
Btw for anyone who doesn’t know Arena is currently bugging quests on the main game if you play arena it’ll start reverting quests
Only if you verify files or clear cache
And it doesn't revert them you keep the xp and rewards and can do the tasks again

you could easily put wallets into a specific rig and use that for a money case without spending $5 irl dollars
What are those monkas you are playing against?
Will absolutely be nerfed for the main wipe in Dec
@@MACARONIEMANIAC They will more than likely follow their traditional wipe schedule. Should be some Thursday at the end of Dec.
@@MACARONIEMANIAC trust me bro
Why
Didint they wipe like directly on christmas last year? Or the same week atleast. It has been like that for a few years now
lol yapper. you work at bsg fam?
also note you have a chance of wiping all quest progress and fence rep playing arena happened to me last night 2 weeks gone
In my opinion for scout, run an mpx, mod it out, pbp, aim for the head, had no recoil good ergo and you can have like 4 back up mags if you run the right armor
run vector with rip hollows like a real man.
@earlyexit38 leg meta... :/
@@earlyexit38 vector 45 with AP. learn. its arena, shred them
@@kaiquedj leg meta has a level of disrespect that goes unmatched. its also far cheaper so you can have an unreasonable amount of ammo on your pmc
@@ghostedghost29 yes sir
3 supposed shots of m61 using a bolty and not a kill had me crashing out on getting it leveld up.
Can you level the skills above 30 in Arena for EFT? As the cap is 30 for Arena
yes
just my consipracy theory. bsg is testing arena at a accelerated pace; it wont be so quick and easy once 1.0 comes out. hype now, and maybe 1.0 release at some sort of event (twitchcon?) so this is probably gonna be a short wipe.
It's just as quick and east as regular tarkov is doesn't make a difference
I mean my buddy is 46 and all his dailys in arena are like 100kxp
1.0 is NOT coming out 💀
It's crazy how slow Tarkov's skill progression is.
They designed it for streamers who play all day every day.
@@Jake-bt3fc that's the thing: I play all day everyday, and by the time I got Kappa last wipe my Endurance was at level 35.

Theres a bug if you verify files after playing tarkov it will resync from arena and let you do all the quests again without losing the rewards
45 vector on scout is unbeatable
It feels like the desync is again really bad at the moment (i only play arena)
You have contacts inside bsg. Can you let them know that people want this twitch box for pve too?
Kinda hope they add hardcore server which removes flea and arena.
They said this is a thing.

For me arena feel different with aiminng i have same sens but it just feel weird any tips?
PBP might as well be made out of cheese in arena
Pbp is straight garbage in arena
aim for the face
I love arena but we need real quests in Arena or legit 10 daily’s it’s not enough
Do prime subs work?

That's how it has been the last 6 wipes anyway. Nothing is different except everyday people can still live their lives while playing Tarkov.
back in the day u could get flea lvl 10 and buy anything in the game off it. its still a slower early wipe than pre inertia
resume: pay to win
too bad if you play arena right now theres a chance you randomly lose Trader rep and quests get reset if you already completed them :D
