About Escape from Tarkov: Prepare for Escape Edition PC (Beta)
Escape from Tarkov is a tactical first-person shooter set in the fictional Norvinsk region of Russia, around a transition zone between Russia and Europe that serves as a gateway for trade and deals. However, the temptation has proven too much for villainous organisations looking to cash in any way they can and the area has erupted into a tense standoff between Russian forces, UN Peacekeepers and two independent PMCs (Private Military Companies).
These are: United Security (known as USEC) and BEAR. USEC was hired by the corrupt organisation Terra which was responsible for much of the turmoil, while BEAR are their opposition, hired by the Russian authorities to investigate Terra and their nefarious doings.
Additional equipment and resources in stash: Digital copy pre-load, Huge size of stash (10x66), Tactical Tomahawk, tactical rig x2 (depends on selected faction), backpack x2 (Tri-Zip - 5x6 cells), Unique secure gamma-container (3x3), Grach or P226 pistol x4 (depends on selected faction), pistol magazines x12, pistol ammo x180, Makarov Pistol x3, pistol magazines x9, pistol ammo x150, canned meat x8, bottled water x6, AI-2 medkit x9, bandages x9, splint x9, 400k roubles, AKS74U+2 loaded magazines, АК74N+2 loaded magazines, Salewa first aid kit, RGD-5 grenade х2, SMG Vityaz or HK MP5 + 2 loaded magazines (depending on selected faction), 3000 dollars, Kiver helmet, Pilad reflex sight
IFAK first aid kit, АК74 M1-B Ultimak handguard, Grizzly first aid kit, Alfa tactical rig
morphine injector х2, SV98 sniper rifle + 1 loaded magazine, Silencerco Hybrid 46 silencer, Silencerco Hybrid 46 silencer adaptor, pistol case (3x3), 6B43 6А body armor, MPX submachine gun + 2 loaded magazines, M4 LVOA-S handguard, Initially good standing with all in-game traders, Unique in-game ID and Free access to all subsequent DLCs (Season pass)

Good game Bad dev
Escape from Tarkov is actually a pretty fun game! However, if you get to a point where you are having issues, you are pretty much screwed. All the bonus stuff you receive for buying a higher version do not give you a significant advantage as the combat is still skill based. If you lose your account for any reason, such as a ban or losing access to email, if can be very difficult to get your account back. The support team is slow to respond, if at all. I recommend taking extra caution with your account details if you do decide to buy this game!

This game is one of my most favourite games of all time, I enjoy watching it, playing it and making research about it, but also its only in Beta now, so I cant really give it a 100/100, that'll have to wait till its released as a full game.
So for now I'll give it 75/100 but take this review as like: 90/100
And also thanks to you guys, on CDKeys, thanks to you I saved around 13 euro by buying this promocode which functioned perfectly and everything works perfectly.

First of all this game is exciting. If you hear footsteps it's going to make your heart pump. When you see somebody it might be over in 1 second or you might take some shots to nonvital parts and actually survive. Assuming you have the right equipment to heal.
Second of all this game has plenty of maps and a lot of different equipment/loot to collect. Weapons have multiple parts and you can find parts from the raids. There are big forest maps as well as smaller in door maps. Loot can be used to upgrade your own basement to gain certain bonuses. Vendors offer missions and in exchange you get access to better loot/discounts.
Did all that sound good? Well let me put some negative sides as well.
Those moments of actual gunplay and assaulting might be over very fast. It's realistic. But it's not so fun when other online players have horrific ping and you end up seeing something else than the one attacking you. And it's not so fun when enemy AI boss just shoots you right in the head from far away.
There is plenty of maps. However there is no actual map system in the game. You need to know exit points to actually complete the raid and you can be spawned anywhere around the map. So in order to play some new map, you need to find map from the internet, keep it open next to the game and try to find the correct exit. Additionally there are stashes that contain better loot and those stashes are hidden in the map. Very annoying and I ended up playing only 1-2 maps because there is so much to memorise.
Lots of loot and gunparts. Sounds cool until you realise there is so much gunparts that are very specific and fit only certain parts and guns. Good luck trying to actually build a gun with a lot of different parts. Atleast you can save the blueprints so that you don't have to build the gun again after dying in the next raid. Also memorise all the bullets as some are just useless and other are powerful/very valuable in the market.
Black market. You could think that golden horses, jewelry and guns would be the most valuable items in the game. But no: most valuable items are often some bullets, scopes and random stuff that make absolutely no sense. So even this aspect needs researching so that you actually pick up something valuable.

Insane game
First off, this game is not for everyone, if you’re used to playing cod or battlefield this game is not the same, this game is the hardest game you’ll probally ever play (by no exaggeration) you’ll die a lot and it’s hard to carry on playing, but if you do you will fall in love with this game, the difficulty pays off for the gratification of surviving every raid and it never gets old, just be prepared to die a lot

Great solo or with other players

Love/Hate relationship
Spent around 4 years watching Pestily, Lvndmark, and DrLupo as well as some lesser known EFT players such as DeditusLive before I built a PC at the end of 2020. That's where everything in life, my sanity, friendships, marriage all began to suffer. If you are considering buying EFT it's highly recommended that you spend some time watching Twitch streamers of all abilities (not just the top players) so you get a bit of an understanding of how ruthless an experience it is. There are no console games that are even slightly comparable to EFT (showdown is almost similar) so if your coming from COD or BF and think you can run around sliding all over the place quickscoping your going to have problems.
PROS
*It's like some repenting kind of punishment that you didn't realise you needed to make you feel as though your sins have been absolved
*No hand holding whatsoever make the learning curve so steep that every little reward feels massive
*It's so unforgiving that you have no choice but to forget everything you think you know about FPS games and teach yourself that you are worthless, and you will never be good at Tarkov
*Huge maps with insane detail
*Weapons and gear... LOTS of weapons and gear
*Hideout upgrading and the massive list of trader tasks plus daily and weekly operations provides plenty of stuff to do when not being shot in the face
*Bosses to remind you that just in case you thought you were getting the hang of things, you aren't
CONS
*Server stability can be awful with backend errors, desync and random black screens or never ending loading screens
*seems to be game of choice for jobless benefit scroungers that can put in 8 or 9 hours a day and have some cool name referencing how they smoke weed, might seem like a small gripe but the higher your level the better your gear.. casual players are going to get ruined, those with all the time in the world become invincible
*there are still the occasional hackers using aimbots/radars making it even more unfair
With regards to CDKeys I've probably bought 40/50 products from the sight over the last 5+ years and never had any problems. Codes are always instant and always work without fault.
The Pros
The sadomasochistic feel

A warning
The best way I can describe this game is to compare it to masochism. It's not for everyone, it is incredibly painful but is very rewarding to those he can handle it. Complaining about the game because of it's steep learning curve and hardcore nature is like complaining about a racing game having too many cars. That's not to say the game is free of criticism. It has a lot of problems but if you can climb the mountain that is the learning curve then you will be rewarded far more than most casual games BUT I would recommend you watch a lot of Tarkov content on twitch or youtube before you buy it so that you can know for sure that it's for you because it certainly not for everyone. I have friends who I think would love the game and others who would hate it. If you truly believe that it's for you, I cannot recommend it enough.

Escape From Tarkov is a "relatively" new hardcore 1st person shooter that takes place in the Norvinsky Region in Tarkov. Your goal is to go into a raid, complete tasks, gather items, find your exfil location and survive. Or at least that's supposed to be the point of the game. Your EFT experience will be much better if you avoid everyone and everything, trusting players is a slippery slope and the AI(scavs) are either made of paper and die easily, or steel and will eat all of your ammunition. All of this comes after even trying to LAUNCH THE GAME. Hope you don't have a limited time to play this game because if their servers are down(this happens A LOT) then you are 100% not playing. This Wipe, it looks like the real Escape from Tarkov is uninstalling the game.

So this is my first review, I never in these 25years ever reviewed a game but here I am right now. 'Escape from tarkov' is undoubtedly the best game I have ever played in my whole life, it is totally underrated, it deserve more although the community it has is quite large and loyal to themselves. This game is way before it's time in terms of graphics, gameplay,audio, mechanism, everything you can imagine of, this one is not made for everyone forsure, as some new players might get fustrated of dieing and quit, but once you get to know how things work here it can become your addiction. + Every few month the game gets an update which keep things fresh and new , and FYI it's still in beta , I can only imagine what it's gonna become when it gets an official release. It teaches you a lot of things but most importantly patience, I used to fear loosing my gears when I was new but it taught me to take calculated risks in order to progress , you literally have to do a PhD in EFT if you want to be excellent in this game, the game demands time and focus on order to Master it and I love that about it. Would definitely recommend you to try and experience this game. Ggs
