@MarathonDevTeam What about Misiriah availability? That weapon rarely spawns in strongboxes and if you don’t have one, you’ll just lose to every other team in CQC. There’s no schema that I’ve seen yet for it either

Over the weekend, a player posted a video of them taking advantage of a map issue and going out of bounds to gain access into the Compiler room to ambush a team after they finished completing the encounter. First off, we will have this issue fixed before Cryo Archive becomes available again. In the past, we have not taken action against players going out of bounds, but due to this case heavily affecting other players negatively, we'll be reviewing our policies and sharing more details soon. While we don't want to punish players for bugs that they run into by accident, we will communicate more clearly the line that players should not cross when it comes to using these sorts of bugs that could be griefing others. We will be reaching out to the affected players to grant them compensation for having their successful run interrupted by this issue.

@TooDiffizzle I had a game with all 5 teams all of which was at cargo fighting the spawn and 3rd partying

Did anyone else experience a majority of their games today having a max of 4 teams rather than the traditional 5 on Cryo? I had one game where it was 5 total teams but other than that every other game was only 4 teams in lobby.

@MarathonTheGame Make hazard capsules spawn more PLEASE! Either that or make it so the new C.A.R.R.I system has a hazard capsule barter for 150 of the accommodation. The capsule barely spawns compared to the other prestige salvages. We are 2 months in and I don't even have all my traders upgraded

Is your eyesight good enough to get into Destroyed Wing?

@Ziegler_Dev Switch it to outpost

UPDATE - SPONSORED MARSH Thank you to everyone who has been participating in the Sponsored Marsh Queue! A lot of you have been participating, and we've been learning a lot from watching you all play and listening to the feedback around the queue. As for next steps, we're still finalizing what to do for our next experiment, so we'll be keeping Sponsored Dire Marsh on for at least another week (4/29 - 5/6). Thanks again for playing, and keep the feedback coming.

@tarkovarena @nikgeneburn I can’t even run my normal kits before the update. Totally blows, arena is suppose to be the run and gun aspect of Tarkov. The only thing that should matter is armor which I understand but nowadays people just run the Ryss-T meta gaming

We’re gathering feedback on the weapon mod and preset balance changes introduced in #TarkovArena update 0.5.0 and invite you to take a short survey. ● How would you rate the changes to weapon balance and class meta weight? ● Which class do you consider the strongest right now, and which the weakest? ● What’s your opinion on the removal of meta weight restrictions? ● What do you think about the weapon progression changes? We appreciate any additional comments or suggestions. Thanks for your feedback, Gladiators!

@Ziegler_Dev Make it so same items should stacks. For example shields/backpacks/mods/COMPILER GANGLION/Implants should all stack. Would be an amazing QoL update. At this point I'm practically just coming out with ammo/valuables every raid because I can't even put anything back in my stash.

UPDATE: FREE KIT FRENZY - EXPERIMENTAL QUEUE - DIRE MARSH SPONSORED Thank you to all of you who participated in the Duos Experiments we've had over the past few weeks. We're currently working on making duos a real feature in Season 2 and are diligently working on delivering that to all of you who are eagerly awaiting its return. ABOUT EXPERIMENTAL QUEUES: The experimental queue is a time limited queue that allows us to preview features in development with you, often with a less-than-complete feature set. This queue allows the Marathon development team to learn and obtain feedback that helps us deliver a more completed feature set down the line. For the sake of queue health and focus we only run one experimental queue at a time. Once we have learned enough to understand our next steps for this feature, we start work on finalizing the feature and move on to the next experiment. Your participation in any experiment is greatly appreciated and is very helpful to us in developing features down the line. THE NEXT EXPERIMENT: What happens when you bring a knife... to a knife fight? For our next experiment, starting Wednesday, 4/15 at 10AM PT, we will be enabling the Dire Marsh - Sponsored Queue. This is a new experimental queue that is focused on learning a bit more about our early gear ecosystem. In this queue all players will enter with a free sponsored kit and be challenged to use what they find on Dire Marsh to upgrade themselves and get out! Details below. DIRE MARSH SPONSORED Details: The experiment will run for approximately 2 weeks, from 4/15 @ 10AM PT to 4/29 @ 10AM PT. We may change the end timing depending on anything we discover along the way that might warrant us to make an adjustment. --You will only be eligible to enter the queue if you (and your crew) have a free sponsored kit (white tier) equipped. --You can enter as a premade duo (crew fill off), premade trio, or crew fill into a trio. --The queue will only be for the Dire Marsh Zone. --To enter this queue, you can select "Dire Marsh Sponsored" from the zone list. What we will be observing and looking to understand: --How the game plays out with low fixed set gear conditions and caps. --How the zero to hero play works in low starting set gear conditions and caps. --Any technical issues that arise. There are many other changes and additions coming on Wednesday 4/15 PT as well so stay tuned to learn more from the Marathon Discord, and across all the social channels for MarathonTheGame / MarathonDevTeam. Thanks everyone. We appreciate your passion and all the commitment you have to providing us feedback and helping us learn more to evolve Marathon!

@MarathonTheGame @MrRoflWaffles @Skarrow9 Can you make shell cores stack in the vault and same mods as well? Could you also improve the tracking of chip mods. If you tag a grey chip mod it should also tag its respective green, blue, and purple mod

Day 2 of the Cryo Archive Launch Stream is live now on twitch.tv/marathonthegame hosted by @MrRoflWaffles and @Skarrow9! Earn twitch drops as more teams brave the Marathon!

@MarathonDevTeam Please let weapon mods stack as well and let us favorite or track mods this way we can get pinged in raid if a weapon I picked up has the mod

Next week, we are planning to make a change to free up a little more space in your Vault. We've seen the feedback on some stack sizes not feeling large enough and will be making the following change: ➡️ Consumables, Ammo, Salvage, and Grenades will now have larger stack sizes in the Vault. We're also adding some additional Vault filters for keys and backpacks in this update.

@AirwingMarine I was able to solo them before the nerf. Just a rook with the energy pistol with the ammo siphon chip goes BRRRR

Just gonna say it... The UESC nerf was too much IMO. They went from scary to just a nuisance now... I can solo the wardens with a free kit without too much difficulty...

@tarkovarena Apart from doing dailies that’s the only time I really play the game. Once you do your dailies there are no other incentives to play. Personally you should earn GP coins for wins and/or BP currency for MVP/Wins. Incentives playing the game

Gladiators of #TarkovArena! We'd love to get to know you better and ask a couple of questions. ● How often do you play #TarkovArena? How many hours per week do you spend in the game?

@nikgeneburn @TorkieTweets No keep that SOLO. This was the biggest issue with labryinth. People would come in 5 stack for the best loot and best xp farm. If it’s not a 5 stack it would be a 2-4man in which they would just CAMP doors

@TorkieTweets yes you will be able to spawn with the group up to 3 players

- seasonal character, PvE prestige is planned later after Q2 (in Q3) - matching times being addressed at this moment - anticheat stuff is being added almost every single patch -pretty big optimization part is that culling system rework in Q2 patch, also vegetation rework related to optimization -EoD unique clothing and armband is planned in Q2 patch (maybe earlier) -Icebreaker event moved to Q2, cause it's really big event, needs to have more testing and fixes -FSR4 in plans

@nikgeneburn Start of wipe was 3 minutes with all NA. Now it’s 8 minutes. Although it says it’s suppose to start in 8 minutes it usually late synchronization to 10-11 minutes

guys, pls tell what is your average matching time and what region/servers are selected?

@TheRooster Well here’s an easy one: MAKE IT SO YOU CANT BRING IN FREE LOADOUTS INTO MAJOR CONDITIONS. Best loot possible and you’re coming in with 0 risks. Major conditions like night raids/electro mag/the special map conditions like hidden bunker/locked gate.

🎒 FREE LOADOUTS Devs say they’re looking at changing free loadouts and may add more restrictions. “...whether it's exactly what they come with, the number of slots they have in the inventory, or the weight. I think that's probably what we’ll play with first” 🔗 GamesRadar

@nikgeneburn Duckov. Get us some duck plushies for the hideout or new lootable duck plushies that are valuable

recently the team and I have been discussing potential collaborations with other projects, and I’d love to hear your thoughts. What game or project do you think would be a great fit for EFT for a collab with?

@xTerotex Yep make Labryinth a solo only transition point. Change my mind

now do the same for labyrinth

@nikgeneburn Will there ever be another way to get these figurines once again? As of right now if you prestige and don't transfer it to your next prestiged PMC, you lose all these figurines from twitch drops. Will these be added into the basic loot pool any time soon?#tarkov

@nikgeneburn Transiting during this quest doesn't count. I was gonna treat it like it was The Guide. Transiting to multiple maps in one life, but I guess you can't do it.

Worlds Most Recent Good Ending in Escape From Tarkov @nikgeneburn absolute cinematic. Picked this game up during COVID and stuck with it through thick and thin. To the amazing story design and the LORE, this game is second to NONE. #tarkov #EscapefromTarkov

@nikgeneburn No 5 stacking labyrinth. Duos/trios max or just make it solo only.

decided to fix the game by myself finally. What do I need to fix/add/balance. Keep it short lets go

@nikgeneburn Can we change up the scav co op extract for the Kerman path. Having to coop on two maps without killing scavs is insane. Unless you have people sniping your games as scavs or you’re body blocking with tier 6 armor and face shield, it seems a lil too hard without killing scavs
