Players must find virus samples or complete specific objectives related to the outbreak.

Further, players can collect special items from Halloween-themed pumpkins scattered throughout the maps.

The event affects various maps differently, with some areas experiencing higher concentrations of zombies than others.

Frustration With The Escape from Tarkov Zombie Event

Many players report that the number of zombies in raids sometimes exceeds 50 to 100, making it impossible to complete objectives.

Thus, players feel they cannot escape or effectively loot, as they are constantly attacked by zombies and other players (PMCs).

Further, zombies require multiple shots to the head to take them down, which feels inconsistent with the game’s mechanics.

This has led to complaints about the zombies being “overtuned,” making them feel less like a manageable threat and more like an insurmountable obstacle. 

Nevertheless, it has caused significant frame drops and lag, which detracts from the overall experience.

Many players feel that the event has shifted the focus away from the core elements of Tarkov, such as strategic looting and PvP encounters.

Instead, they find themselves stuck in prolonged battles against hordes of zombies.
