The "Coin-Flip" in Tarkov isn't as Common as You Think
Many players in Escape From Tarkov would say at one point or another, they were put into a situation where there were only two possible outcomes. If they do “A”, then “X” would happen. Or, if they do “B”, then “Y” would occur. These two possible outcomes have been described by many as “coinflips”; situations where your knowledge, skill, equipment; none of that matters in the situation you find yourself in. The game is ultimately going to randomly decide if you win this engagement or not. And I’ll be brutally honest and say I find that notion extremely hard to believe in almost every case. Emphasis on almost. There will be moments where you feel powerless; that each decision you make isn’t turning your situation around. You try and try to do the right thing, but in the end, it feels as though the game is out to get you, and you begin to wonder why you even try to take fights, take out AI scavs, go for those bosses. It all feels... almost pointless sometimes. Well, the game isn’t doing anything in the backend that we know of to try and get you killed. This isn’t something like League of Legends that actually has those kinds of “checks” put into place for their own nefarious reasons. The coinflip in Tarkov is an idea; just that. This persona the community as a whole participates in helps them better understand the situations they are put into where they are confused. Now, I am not saying anyone is wrong for having this mentality. After all, it’s a game. If you want to say that the game actively goes out of its way to get you, that’s fine. You’re entitled to that. Just as I am to argue that this notion might not be as real as we all think it is. I have a feeling this one is going to get spicy in the comment section, so please leave your own thoughts on the matter. But all I ask is that you keep it civil and respectful please. After all, this is just a conversation. So, subscribe to the channel if you’d like to have more in the future.

Point-Fire is Fundamentally Broken in Tarkov
Combat has always been at the core of Tarkov’s gameplay loop. You go into raids to complete quests, collect gear and loot, and partake in combat against AI and other players. And while it might not be your main objective in every single raid you enter, you will get into situations where you need to fight your way out. Whether you want to or not. And combat can look simple from an outside perspective; just aim your gun at the other guy and hit them. But getting into gunfights in Tarkov is probably the most mechanically deep part of the entire game, next to movement. There are tons of weapons, ammos, attachments that will drastically affect how you engage others and where the best and worst places will be to do so. And one of those that can be fitted onto weapons are flashlights and lasers. These are interesting additions to your weapon because whether it's for illumination, or having a general idea of where the barrel of your weapon is always aiming, can be useful in situations where you get surprised by a player and don’t have time to aim down your weapons optic for more accurate fire. Over the years, point fire as it is properly called, has become a powerful method of engaging in PvP. So much so, that it is entirely possible to not aim down your weapon and kill other players from a surprisingly far distance. Granted, we are still talking about close quarters combat in general, but you would be surprised at being able to take enemies out with point fire from easily 20 meters. Point fire is already accurate enough, but when you add either a flashlight or laser on top of that, and you have a mechanic in the game that is severely over tuned for how simple it can make many engagements in the game. Which is a shame, because it honestly never feels that good to just spray in someone’s direction and watch them fall. But, before we talk about how it makes us feel, we need to go over what makes point fire so strong, how lasers make it better, and what can be done to maybe adjust this way of fighting. So, whether you agree or not I’d ask you to share your thoughts in the comment section and subscribe if you’d like to see more videos talking about potentially controversial topics in Tarkov.

If You Hate the New Painkiller Effect in Tarkov, Use This
One of the more upsetting changes for a lot of people in Tarkov was the adjustment to what the painkiller effect looks like in game. Before, the increase of sharpness while annoying to look at if you were watching Tarkov, was tolerable and some people genuinely liked the effect it had on their game. People would just pop painkillers at the start of every raid because it was so tame and the benefits of being on PKs were so strong. But with the most recent wipe, they changed what the game looks like on PKs, and a lot of people are not happy with it. And I think that was the point. Always being on this effect was too strong, so losing limbs or getting fractures had fewer negative consequences. That tense and stressful moment where you get a blacked-out limb and can’t move so you scramble to get out some form of a Painkiller is something that can make Tarkov either intense and exciting, or dumb and frustrating depending on how you ask. So, it made sense that BSG wanted to combat that by changing the PK effect. Now, your screen will become severely desaturated. Which, by itself I don’t think people would’ve had a problem with. But the other effect is that it makes the edges of your screen blurry to the point where it’s difficult to see what's on your peripheral vision. Your vision and ability to see people goes way down when you are any form of painkiller now. Which obviously is BSG’s way of saying hey stop using PKs all the time. Even I find myself using them less than before. Which was already pretty low to begin with. Because I tried to avoid them as much as possible, so the bitrate of these videos didn’t completely tank and ruin the quality. But now I basically don’t use them unless I am about to die. And with so many ways to get the PK effect, things like morphine and propital feel kind of yucky to use because the PK lasts for so long. But what if there was a stim in the game that was largely overlooked because the effect was tolerable before? What if it was a short-term PK that got you moving, healed you and even made your recoil better? Well, luckily it exists. And it’s been in the game for quite some time. So, stick around if you’d like to hear how everyone should start using Adrenaline as their stimulant of choice, and subscribe for more videos showcasing things in the game that are underutilized.
