But tbf you can’t really compare the scope of the two games, other than maps how much has EFT actually changed in that span of time? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Truscape@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 11 months ago (1 child) Quite a bit, honestly as a regular player of the single-player mod, content and mechanic wise things have gotten way better. It's honestly the execution of matchmaking, server performance (or lack thereof), and certain balance choices holding the game back. Other than that it's really solid, and if you mod, you can solve all 3 of those problems. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Arondeus@lemmy.ca 5 points 11 months ago (1 child) What is the situation with regards to cheaters like in this game? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Truscape@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 11 months ago* Because of matchmaking and certain decisions the Devs have made (no post-raid review), it's very hard to accurately report cheaters or verify if you got killed by one. Due to this, many people prefer playing PVE (so you can experience the current game content without meddling humans), or modded CO-OP/single player with a mod like SPT. Considering that the cheapest copy of the game is 30-40 USD, and SPT only requires ownership (no "edition" needed), I'd say that entry price is worth it. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Harvey656@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago As a player of both games, fuck both 'betas'.
