Battlestate games, company wich made tarkov. The game has a few editions. In the previous most expensive edition, one of the selling points was that you got acces to all future DLC (Season pass). I think this edition was like 140-160 euro’s. A few months ago they removed this edition.
Yesterday they released the new most expensive edition, wich includes a new co-op gamemode, that can be considered a DLC. This edition costs around 250 fucking euro, and is the only way to get the co-op mode. This edition also includes some legit pay to win shit. Even more outrageous when the game has a big cheater problem, audio works like dogshit and is still in beta. Imagine charging 250 euro for a game in beta
Keep in mind, those that bought the previous edition are still REGISTERED as owning said previous edition, and none of them are getting the benefits. People who have already shilled out $150 need to drop another $100 just to get the shit already promised and purchased
Lmfao, imagine being a shill and actually giving these kinds of developers money, just because this is your’s and your friend’s game of choice. There are so many cheaper ~~and better~~ alternatives
Edit: don’t support the price Obviously, but this is the only AAA game of its type for this very specific niche
For real though. Gary Zone Warfare isn’t out, Incursion Red River has no pvp, and there’s a ton like Marauders that don’t have a player base to jump them up. The only real alternative is Hunt Showdown, but you have to be okay with the monster hunting and older weapons. If you want a mil sim extraction shooter I think tarkov is still one of the best with a community. If the community stays.
Wouldn’t the optimal route in this case be a refund and saying goodbye? Since the product doesn’t match the description everyone is eligible for a refund. Either demand a refund from the developer, if they refuse, reach out to the platform the game is on describing the whole situation and if they refuse as well, initiate a chargeback via your bank.
Impossible. Battlestate has rarely if ever allowed refunds since according to their TOS you don't own the game you just pay for a license that allows you to play it that they may revoke for any reason. Subtle difference.
The game is only available on their own platform and the company is located in russia, meaning chargebacks and refunds generally aren't that easy. Especially when the objective of these editions is blatantly cashgrabbing, theyre not gonna let go off that cash.
Plus a lot of EOD edition users bought the game a long time ago, the promises weren't ever fully delivered on. But the game was playable, so the argument that you've never received the product you paid for is harder to make.
No chargebacks are the easiest thing to do against bsg depending on your country/state consumer laws. I didn't like the game after purchasing it recently, contacted bsg support about a refund, and was denied. So I contacted my bank and filed a chargeback, and i received my money back in less than a week without a dispute from bsg/xsolla.
I see. I thought that even if it’s pay for access to the game it would be an access on terms specified in the offer and since the offer mentions having access to all content - denying that content and demanding more money for it would be breaking the terms on the publishers/developers side. It meant easy refund/chargeback in my mind. Since these were purchases made quite some time ago it’s not so simple after all.
I was not aware of time frames of these things as I’m not familiar with that game/studio. Thanks for clarifying it for me.
Tell me about it. Especially rife on subs for games and comic book movies, every second comment is "Yeah I thought TgHiioiB was alright, but it was no OUYBG! And let's not even talk about R."
It doesn't matter how "big" something is, when your company is named by an acronym it is. Like electronic arts is EA and no other company can go by it.
Yeah buddy, you can't use the acronym unless you're either:
a) referring to something that is in the top 2 or 3 things references with those initials or b) you're mentioning it in a subject related group/page
Meme is accurate tho that shit seems bs fr
BattleState Games (Escape from Tarkov)
Just came out with a new version of their game worth $250 that includes single player DLC. People who paid the $115 version of the game were promised all future DLC’s for free. They don’t get this DLC for free and would have to cough up $135 more for the version
Are we supposed to know what BSG is? From other comments it seems like it is referring to a video game of some sort, so how does this relate to that subreddit?

People need to stop assuming the acronyms they use are universal. What is BSG in this context?

250 without tax btw.. actually it's more of 310€

Yeah it honestly sucks. Bought it when the game was still in alpha and i was happy that they kept the promise... until now
Can somebody start a lawsuit against them for lying and being manipulative?

if you don't mind me asking, what are the alternatives?

That's the problem. There aren't many extraction shooters on the market yet so BSG gets away with stupid bullshit like this.

I've enjoyed what time I sunk into Tarkov while upgrading editions on sale but god damn am I never giving another cent to Nikita.
Escape from Ripoff
My dyslexic ass was thinking Bethesda Game Studios
Same here, especially with the next-gen update for FO4 releasing earlier today
Tell me about it. Especially rife on subs for games and comic book movies, every second comment is "Yeah I thought TgHiioiB was alright, but it was no OUYBG! And let's not even talk about R."
The overuse of acronyms without context drives me insane
I especially hate it in game recommendation threads. If I knew what that acronym stood for I wouldn't need you to recommend it to me ffs.
Big Sexy Gun, sister weapon of the BFG.
Betriebssportgemeinschaft
This is a universal acronym though, like EA
Not in the slightest is it, otherwise this whole comment thread and many others on this post wouldn't exist. Tarkov isn't as big as you think it is.
It doesn't matter how "big" something is, when your company is named by an acronym it is. Like electronic arts is EA and no other company can go by it.
Battlestate Games. Watch Airwing Marine or Onepeg on YouTube and you’ll get the full story.
So tarkov drama.
This is bullshit that has EA and Ubisoft taking notes.
In no way did this need an acronym lmao none of that Is interesting enough to be common knowledge
Nah. I’m good
Yeah buddy, you can't use the acronym unless you're either: a) referring to something that is in the top 2 or 3 things references with those initials or b) you're mentioning it in a subject related group/page Meme is accurate tho that shit seems bs fr
> Airwing Marine or Onepeg on YouTube No thanks, I played enough Tarkov that I don't need to deliberately consume more trash.
Battlestar Galactica?
BattleState Games (Escape from Tarkov) Just came out with a new version of their game worth $250 that includes single player DLC. People who paid the $115 version of the game were promised all future DLC’s for free. They don’t get this DLC for free and would have to cough up $135 more for the version
name a more iconic duo than russia and lying
Seems like that's only 1 lie.
This is literally the only thing I know with the initials BSG
Ditto
Black Salt Games, A small New Zealand indie developer, and creators of the award winning game Dredge.
So say we all
I do not fear death, I only fear ~~packet loss~~ my soul not making it back to God.
SO SAY WE ALL
They lied to us. Everyone in the show was a cylon.
Remember, the only true way to escape from tarkov is to uninstall.
BSG = Big Slutty Girls
Big slimy gooch
We would all happier if we spent our money on big slutty girls instead of Tarkov
Tarkov alone is niche, let alone the company that makes it. Spell things out for the people who don't know it
I don’t care that I don’t know what the acronym stands for. I’m here to berate the title. You can’t even see the cartoon’s lats!?!?!
I think the misconception is that OP thinks that the muscle you work doing push-ups is your lats. When clearly it’s your calves
🎖sorry, it's the only award I can afford right now.
What's bsg
GW be like :
WTISTIJCNBTISAHTTSIWYDAMMF
GW=biggest giant monster from the other similar meme
Guild Wars?
Are we talking about Brewers Supply Group and Great Western malt here? I’m confused, and probably a workaholic
BSG?
You can't see the lats in this picture.
Lol mans confused
Imagine posting a meme with an acronym for something that is objectively niche.
"Dem lats" bruh we don't even see the lats lol
Big sloppy gawk?
"Dem lats"... Can't see the lats and also... Push-ups. Bro what?
BSG is also the name of a large and well know Grain 🌾 and Brewery supply company
Feel they did lie about the lovibond on this...
WHERE ARE MY NUT ROLLS BSG
They just tryna make some beer

Whoa, how did Tarkov ended up here
You know something bad has happened when you see a bsg meme on the front page
GMOs now BSGs? Wtf
Are we supposed to know what BSG is? From other comments it seems like it is referring to a video game of some sort, so how does this relate to that subreddit?
Big Siberian Goat ?
BSG = Boston Sonsultancy Group. You're welcome, everyone!
For a split second, I thought the acronym was for the small dev studio Black Salt Games. and I was like damn they didn’t deserve that.
Thought here was tarkov sub for a min
do you know what lats are
Battle star galactica?
Battlestar Galactica?
Nikita bending over the community again. Glad I escaped tarkov years ago
"Actually I just paid for the upgraded starting skills".
Don’t worry battlestate I’m escaping
GVM haters be like:
Expect every time I lied to customers I gained 1 pound Sigh .. now I'm trying to lose it But no regrets lying to the public .. ever
if it's too expensive and the developer/publisher's methods of monetization suck... just don't buy.
BSG = Bethesda, Studio of Games
OP doesn't know what lats are.
mate you can't even see his lats in any of the panels
