But tbf you can’t really compare the scope of the two games, other than maps how much has EFT actually changed in that span of time?

Quite a bit, honestly as a regular player of the single-player mod, content and mechanic wise things have gotten way better.
It’s honestly the execution of matchmaking, server performance (or lack thereof), and certain balance choices holding the game back. Other than that it’s really solid, and if you mod, you can solve all 3 of those problems.

What is the situation with regards to cheaters like in this game?
Truscape@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 day ago
Because of matchmaking and certain decision the Devs have made (no post-raid review), it’s very hard to accurately report cheaters or verify if you got killed by one. Due to this, many people prefer playing PVE (so you can experience the current game content without meddling humans), or modded CO-OP/single player with a mod like SPT.
Considering that the cheapest copy of the game is 30-40 USD, and SPT only required ownership (no “edition” needed), I’d say that entry price is worth it.
