The Community Shifts Opinions Like Crazy – Escape From Tarkov News



4 months ago I made a video after asking the community whether they thought the KS-23 was overpowered, and the results surprised me. What is even MORE surprising is what the community responded with when I asked the SAME QUESTION this time around.

We also have a whole bunch of teaser pics that I went over at the start of the video and there was a podcast announced for 3/26 at 8PM Moscow Time.

  2. Love the ks23 I know the chads hate it but this being my first wipe I find the ks23 very fun to run around on factory and blast vectors just how I like to play too each there own

  3. Compare ap lapua to ks23. Both require semi equivalent skill, both have same result essentially. The reason why no1 hates the 18 is because its power is offset by its insane cost. Remove shrap10 from trader and the gun is balanced

  4. The ks23 isnt op outside of close range it is however super fucking frustrating to not be able to do anything about it when someone uses it properly thats the problem
    Once you peek that room/hallway/corner/what the fuck ever you get flashed into skyrim opening scene and thats it gameplay over toss a nade at your feet and hope for martyrdom.
    Counter play is what people want not buffs not nerfs not the abysmal fucking price balancing…

    The "val gamer" thing was in fact a problem it was a ridiculously fast firing extremely high penning no recoil having monstrosity on top of high af flesh damage. you would peek and same as the ks23 instagib.

    Right now people are bitching about the vector and lets do the math here again Extreme ROF mid/high pen zero recoil you die instantaneously before you can even react and thats if they dont headshot you.

    The issue people have with these guns is the instant death. Yes tarkov should be difficult but having instakill weapons isnt "hard" its frustrating.
    When a dude bolt actions your fucking face off you have the feeling of fuck me that was a hell of a shot it sucks to die but the "feeling" is different.
    When you die to slick altyn vector boi you know without a doubt there was basically nothing you could do unless you had the same kit
    thats a gear duel not a gunfight… Think about MMOs where a dude with tier 6 gear would auto win against a tier 4 the tier 4 dude feels cheated.

    Thats where the val/vector/ks23 sits you just feel cheated.

    Compare those deaths to a dude slapping you down with an AK or like a dt mdr or a sniper rifle you dont feel cheated

  5. Make a countdown thing for the podcast

    Edit: i very much think you are moving the needle, i see noone except you using that shotty, even in factory i rarely see anyone

  6. 08:16 people are not bored because of the money. we need a restriction of Tier 5 and 6 Gear, so that people who play 8h a day cant go shopping all day and have actually go and loot that stuff. it`s a not funny joke, since i reached lvl 10 i ran ingolnik and won the majority of my fights because of endgame gear. i enjoy the modding and the flea allows me to do so, but i dont enjoy that i can buy Tier 5 and 6 ammo and armor, that should be a non barter and flea thing, just go and kill raiders.

  7. I guess if we gonna vote for "which caliber do you see with the most frequency on the Death screen stats" that's gonna be M995/M61/M855A1. Let's check this and compare the most powerful 10 rounds (with the KS-23 round as well) and let's see what's the actual problem (spoiler: it's not the KS). I can't even remember when i died due to this gun.

  8. Bro, what you expect from the shotgun made from the Anti-Aircraft gun? Come on, it has to be super strong. Maybe it's not the KS-23 fault, maybe the meta-boys (i don't really call them chads because they're just a bunch of crybabies) If you running with slick, airframe and vector all the time and keep dying from dudes with shotgun you should.. i don't know, reconsider your tactics maybe? Why people go leg meta? Or using Mosin or Hunter or KS-23? Because they can and because the gear should not compensate for skill

  9. The BAD "rifle" isn't an AR-15 (5.56) rifle. It's the B.A.D. Tanker Pistol chambered in .300BLK. Semi-auto only to acompany the MCX with a woody version. Funnily enough I went through those pics just last night.

  10. I don't understand how people can possibly say that a shotgun that one taps to the legs up to 25 meters no matter what armor you are wearing and only costs 50k is not overpowered.

  11. and normal people are not frustrated – the just play, they do not sit on forums, or yt comments. the more u bitch about something – the worse u perform in the game, for example, my buddy, he is a new player, he is average – he does not bitch at all, he says it is all good, and i said to him that this is the easyest wipe ever, he be like NO WAY, yes, the people that bitch about something just want to look better in the morror, because they suck(sry not sry)

  12. I think the player base who want Tarkov to be harder just want the game to be harder in different way. Pointing out their stash value just doest devaluate the argument they have about a onetapping legmeta shotgun that costs 2 wooden pennies.
    I've died to the gun only once, but then again – I dont play Factory. Been playing bolty w/glock for the past 2,5months so i guess it's the sole reason i dont run into it, although i havent ran into KS exfil campers either.

  13. There is a big difference between "harder" and "oneshot". For me the game is harder when you can break your limbs, when you have new type of bleeding.
    Basically when you have more types of distractin, annoying things you have to think about, but able to overcome. It have to be players fault of not taking something in to account or not being able to overcome in time.

    This is what people mean by "harder" gameplay.

    GL-40 and KS-23 make it impossible to fail by yourself because you will be 100% erased by anyone with more than usual skills.

    Devs can go as realistic as they want but adding something like drone strikes in game will make people just leave it.

  14. I don't think the KS-23 itself needs a nerf, since it's only that strong when it comes to leg meta or flashbang rounds, otherwise it's kinds meh like other shotguns except it don't have the AP-20 slugs, I think what needs to be adressed is leg meta and armor ballistics, because while it feels weird killing someone through the leg, it's also the only play you have if you don't have high pen ammo, and yes, that's the point of high pen ammo, but also, I'm not an expert or anything, but I don't think the way armor works in Tarkov is very reallistic, in real life if you shoot a ballistic vest even with low-pen ammo, after 2 or 3 shots the armor should be busted, not literally a 30-round mag-dump just to get a Slick to less then half durability while dealing close to no damage to the guy wearing the Slick

  15. I just don't like how cheap it is and how easy it is to use you don't even need to aim to the head anymore like with the mosin no skill required. other shotguns are very strong but not broken in my opinion. Just wait around a corner and shoot they don't have any time to react and or shoot back ammo is to cheap WAY TO CHEAP and you get too much per reset atm of typing this it's 7k for like 80 shrap 10s I think. I say up the spread of the pellets and up to amount its cost to buy the ammo by a lot 1 ks-23 per reset at traders.

  16. Not sure if the KS-23 is overpowered but I will say that the KS-23 has absolutely RUINED me by either hitting legs/arms without any prior indication of me being even close to dying.
