Reasons not allowing valuable items in secure container is bad in Tarkov:
1. Discourages PVP. Imagine picking an item up that costs 5 million roubles. You want it, you don't risk anything else, you put it in your secure container or leave. Not allowing it in the secure container means you leave (ties into reason 2). You don't like dying to the guy in the corner right? Right. He's protecting his 5 million rouble item, too bad. I get the thrill of finding it and needing to leave with it but PVP incentive is at an all time low in Tarkov already.
Example: I pop SJ6, hard rush Tarbank, grab the Tarcoins, and leave the raid as fast as possible. I don't stick around or even try to fight someone else.
2. Raids feel dead when people leave in the first 5 minutes, which is exactly what people will do when they get a Tarcoin, regardless of map.
3. Cheaters. I hate games changing things for the regular player to thwart cheaters. But, the reality is, there will always be cheaters. If they can see what you have in your inventory, and you have a valuable item in your bag, they are 1000% going to push you. Secure container prevents that.
4. Rats. Why push in and risk your kit if you know the person coming out is going to have exactly what you want? Rats love this ( right @stankRat_ ?👀)
Yesterday it was contested in Tarbank 90% of the raids with at least 4 people every time, today, about 20% with 3 max. I'm sure a big part of that is a reduction on how many Tarcoins you could get, but with both these changes, that fun is out the window with this unfortunately. #tarkov #escapefromtarkov

Yeah, GGs on this one. I was pulling 34-99 coins out of a raid, now im lucky to get more than 10. Only about 20% of the time I get contested at Tarbank today, yesterday it was a bloodbath 90% of the raids.
Blocking from container is one thing, reducing the amount found is another, one or the other would be fine, both is not it. Not the right change imo, lower amount is fine though. #tarkov
Tarbank spawning Tarcoins made Streets feel like OG Streets of Tarkov. Everyone pushing the same place brought a ton of PVP. One of the most fun days I’ve had on there in a while! #tarkov

Was hoping to push top 10 in the Streamer Challenge today but unfortunately couldn't deploy into a raid after the first hour. GGs. Disappointing end to an otherwise very fun event! Thank you for the invite @bstategames #tarkov

Icebreaker is AWESOME. Very challenging and very rewarding. Didn’t make it all the way through yet but we go again after some rest.
Well done @bstategames

actually most modern games die because they’re overly casualized
and once the casuals move onto the next casual friendly title, the previous game is far too dumbed down for the core player base to be engaged long term

Meh 🤷🏻♂️. being more “skilled” in a game that majority of kills are done by people you are not engaging doesn’t seem all that skillful to me. most of these games die because of PVP.

I'm doing a little challenge/test to see how long it takes to get to prestige 3 in Tarkov, solo, without Arena.
Last week I started on my alt account with 415 hours. Yesterday I finished New Beginning and am now ready to hit prestige 1. Total online time is now 451 hours with exactly 100 raids ran including scavs.
36 hours total to prestige 1 is far more attainable than than it was before!
Will post another update when I get to prestige 2!

Another thing I noticed, when playing on my main account with 14500 hours and 2.5KD, its nearly impossible to PVP after killing someone's teammate without remaining teammates: 1. Hiding from big scary pale skin chad, 2. Running away from vitamin D deficient chad, 3. "this has to be a streamer" and proceeds to stream snipe.
Being on a low hour account is night and day with PVP because my profile gets checked and then its "lets fight", that's all.
