In the hardcore shooter Escape from Tarkov, the developers are distributing 1 million Rubles to players due to severe server issues. However, to receive the money, you need to hurry.
What happened in the shooter? Last weekend, there were problems with the game server in the currently very popular online shooter Escape from Tarkov. Some players could not log in, while others were kicked from raids and lost connection.
Server issues with fatal consequences
Why is this a problem: Escape from Tarkov is a quite demanding shooter. If you get eliminated in a raid, you lose all your equipment that you took with you. Therefore, it’s so important to think carefully about what you want to take with you before a match, because everything might be lost afterward. This “Gear Fear” is a major allure of the shooter.
The players who lost connection mid-raid due to server issues complained that their equipment was gone. And not due to their own fault, as they were eliminated, but because the server was having problems.
What is being offered as compensation? Of course, the team apologized and stated that they are working hard on the issues. Every player will also receive 1 million Rubles from the developers as compensation. You should use this to acquire new equipment and replace what you lost.
Why you should hurry
Why do you need to hurry to collect the compensation? You can pick up the letter in-game, through which you will receive the 1 million Rubles, only until tonight, February 12, at 6 PM. To do this, log in to your account and click on the letter in the bottom right corner of the game.
The money won’t wait for you forever. If you play Escape from Tarkov, make sure to hurry and collect the compensation.
How are players reacting to this compensation? For the most part, players of Escape from Tarkov seem satisfied. Especially those who previously had significantly less money are happy.
However, there are also opposing voices. For example, Bojangs253 stated on reddit: “Don’t get me wrong, I really appreciate that BSG was so kind to distribute Rubles to compensate for all server issues and such, but I’ve lost way more than 1,000,000 Rubles due to the problems.”
