Okay so this is mindboggling to me, don't get me wrong I love my PvP and will continue to play Tarkov the way i did for all these years but this right there is an untapped market. A lot of my friends would love to play Tarkov but aren't really crazy about PvP and would perfer a more "casual" and newcomer friendly experience. Their experience is poor because they aren't willing to put in time to get to the good part, and i totally understand that. Not everyone wants to spend the first couple dozen hours grasping at straws and figuring out the game.
Since these servers are going to be dedicated much like mainline ones, why not just open up PvE servers with seperate progression? A couple of my friends already said they'd get EOD if it meant they could play PvE, so what the hell?
They can't be the only ones. There's also a fair portion od standard accounts playing on modded clients, would be a great way to have them back. And best believe that once comfortable PvE players would go to PvP servers since it's going to be more thrilling.
