These two elements would add a huge amount of variety to the typical Tarkov firefight, which I believe would enrich the tactical gunplay of the game.Īnd they’re not cheap instakill weapons like the GL, instead they are situational and tactical forcing players to plan and act quickly, which is the best part of Tarkov. Smokes cover your movement so you can reposition safely. Molotovs temporarily block areas preventing flanks or holding an enemy while you reposition or heal. The one other interesting option is to throw a grenade and push on the grenade while your opponent is fleeing.īut adding more utility throwables will add a lot of tactical variety to this scenario. Yes you can sprint while freelooking or jiggle peek but these are only variations on the same theme. Either you hold the corner ADSing or you push while pre-firing and hope the peekers advantage nets you the win. Right now in a stand off between two players the meta is pretty stale. However I’d like to put that aside for a moment and talk about the problem with firefights in Tarkov. Yes, I get that the most important thing is to remove desync and improve the net code.
