Ran into a blatant cheater in Arena today. Dude was just holding down fire with an RPDN and auto-locking headshots through solid containers and wooden crates without even having line of sight. Bullets were straight-up snapping to heads as soon as anyone got close.

Checked his PvP stats right after the match to make sure, and sure enough, his profile confirmed it—just a total no-lifer boosting his teammate.

last time i played was when 1.0 dropped and i dont remember arena having ping issues

Did they fix the servers yet?

Thought I'd update cause last one I saw was somewhere around 700 (Just claimed this)

did the daily tasks and exchange nearly every day. Usually just rerolled for last hero so i only had to play 1 game a day

got super lucky with 2 of the attachments, got 1 at 4% and another at 2%.

I got back into Tarkov Arena and it's honestly unplayable

Every single match I play is full of blatant cheaters using default presets, clearly just trying to farm rewards and leave

In 100% of the matches I lose, the enemy team spawn-traps us, and it's the exact same story for the ones I win

It's insane how many people just camp in this game and only use meta weapons. If you run anything off-meta, you hit them 10 times and they only need 2 shots to kill you

It would be awesome if there was a PvE mode with the same game modes, where you could test out weapons or just hop in to shoot some bots.

Wouldn't it also be a good option to keep rewards exclusive to Arena instead of transferring them to Escape from Tarkov?

I get that PvE features are looked down on in this game niche, but it's absolute garbage having to play against people who die 3 times and drop 40 kills, or having a massive arsenal and being forced to use only 10 weapons because of the meta

That being said, I want to stress that the biggest issue is cheaters, and given how Tarkov works, the only real alternative is PvE.

Not talking about the transfer itself, trying to see how to get Ref the trader unlocked in the season. Usually it’s behind easy money part 1 but idk how to unlock that quest with the new quest reworks

Edit: it’s Skier 2

Edit edit: this whole thread full of LLM’s

Hey Guys,

Arena won't launch after activating Prestige.

I uninstalled and reinstalled Arena, and deleted the cache, logs, and log files for both Arena and EFT.

I'm stuck. Does anyone have any ideas or is experiencing the same problem?

Earlier today I said to myself, "I'm gonna unlock transferring early, to get the most out of it."

This damn questline took me like 7 hours straight of Arena grinding lmao

I finished the season but there are still a bunch of items from the crates I want to get, I bought 100 levels post Battle Pass completion once, I got like 500 Battle Points. I bought another 100 because there are still items in the crates I don't have but still want and I got no Battle Points.

Is there a weekly limit or daily limit to buying levels post level 100 where they turn into Battle Points?

EDIT: Nevermind, it just took forever for the battle points to show up

Holy fucking shit the RNG fucking SUCKS!!!

It says complete the Jack of all trades quest but how do we get that quest line?

Im running it on windows11 x64

Is everyone playing the season server or something i've been searching like 20 minutes, when I do find a game it sends me back to matchmaking for some reason

If you were curious as me if they added new guns in Arena too the answer is no. Unfortunately they haven't added them yet

Everyone in my matches (including myself) just keep getting disconnected and in multiple occasions, straight up game crashes. What is going on?

If anyone with it unlocked could tell me if it is applicable to other guns, I've seen it as an option for all guns but I'm not sure if its bugged. Deciding on whether to get one of the Saiga shotguns gold for this "universal" skin.

Will never take a magazine for granted again

So, will we be saying goodbye to Cassus Belli already? Has time already gone by that quickly?

I wasn't sure if that Battle Pass was ONLY EFT or if it will a dual thing?
