The differences from the tiers below them are as follows:
T2
>shotgun+ammo
>another gun storage wall
T3
>tier 3 rig
>intel room(?)
T4
>another kind of backpack
>second common area(?)
>shooting range
>trader relationship bonus
T5
>fancy arm band
>season pass for more dlc
Each also has just straight up more of the stuff the lower tiers start with obviously but because you can only bring so much stuff in per raid the only thing it's really stopping is the early game gear fear. T4 is double the T1 standard edition price at 40USD. Honestly it's looking to me like the major difference is the extra storage walls and maybe the intel room if that gets some purpose in future. No idea if it's possible to spend in game materials to upgrade your safehouse but I imagine if it isn't then that'll be it.
As for that early wipe tarkov magic I get the feeling it'll also be like tarkov in that everyone who is going to sweat it out and grind for the good shit will do so in the opening hours of a wipe. I doubt you'll run into p2w faggotry more often than sweatlords being as they always are.
