Escape from Tarkov: the CEO of Battestate Games still gets up against the players – Actu

A few days ago, the gaming experience ofEscape From Tarkov has been reshaped through a complete reset, called wipe. The latter includes some changes: more flea market, less common rare loots, more limited stocks, more powerful enemies, temporary quest for quests or XP system favoring survival rather than attack. You will understand, Battlestate Games So chose to favor the card of prudence, while tearing the experience a little. What to offer a new dynamic to the game, is it not wonderful? Except that the players don’t really hear it that.

Many of them have complained about all these changes, dissatisfied with a game that has become too difficult and not really encourage players to progress and continue to play. Battlestate Games tried to correct the shooting by restoring the quests earlier than expected or by reducing prolonged waiting times for the recharging of SCAVS, for example. But that was not enough to calm players’ discontent, which seems to annoy Nikita Buyanov, director of the studio.

On Xhe has indeed responded in an unconventional way to a user who apostroped him in this way: “You destroyed your game Frérot.” Faced with this invective, the guy seems to have lost somewhat patience and dropped a “Oh close your mouth.” This is not the first time that Nikita Buyanov has gotten up against these players. In 2023, for example, for example, he attacked cheaters by treating them to “bastards” and “Removers of humanity”just that. The outspokenness of the man has often aroused a kind of fascination in players. But if again, some people greet him and remind you that this reset is only a way to test new things before the arrival of version 1.0, others point the finger at a director unable to hear the critics on a game that has been a bad press for a while now. Nikita Buyanov was also quickly changing himself by indicating that “Each opinion counts.” It only remains to sort out to silence criticism while retaining your own identity, and all this before the outing of the 1.0 announced for 2025. This is a sacred mission of exfiltration in hostile terrain!
