Escape from Tarkov 0.12.7 Patch Notes & New Content

ADDED:

• New quests have been added to the Shoreline map. Moreover, we have just updated our article on this subject by adding the caches.

• A new reporting system is emerging. We can now report a player after he has killed us by clicking on the "attention" logo, reporting a bug abuse; report a potential cheater; report an offensive pseudonym.

• It's a good thing that this kind of functionality is emerging.

• In the FPS counter (console + FPS 1), the icon of network quality in the event of significant packet loss has appeared.

• The "Customs" card has the right to a huge extension! It was done in the industrial and construction zone. We are therefore entitled to new buildings, stationary weapons, and new Reshala spawns.

• A new scav boss arrives: Sanitar. It hangs around on the Shoreline map around the villa, resort, or pier.

AI BEHAVIOR IMPROVEMENTS

AI scavs now have a much more varied and intelligent behavior. Now they can:

• Picking up objects or a secondary weapon from a body;

• Greet another player, greet each other;

• Drink and eat when they are in "quiet" mode;

• Check a charger;

• Beware of a scav player if he is suspicious, by aiming him;

• Run while patrolling if the area is dangerous;

• Mount a group assault on a player;

• Attempt to cross into dangerous areas.

NEW EFT WEAPONS

Grenade Launcher FN GL40

The grenade launcher has a rate of fire of 30 rounds / min and fires 40x46mm caliber. We would have liked to make a little presentation video for you, but its price is somewhat exorbitant on the market: several million rubles! And unfortunately, we missed the opportunity when it was "only" 350,000 .

Mossberg 590A1 Pump Shotgun

Here is a new shotgun: the Mossberg 590A1. This shotgun is not terrible. Indeed, its rate of fire is low and inevitably its recoil is high. However, it has one big advantage: it is highly "flexible", so we can limit its decline in particular.

NEW CARTRIDGES

Small Caliber

No less than three new ammunition are appearing for the M1911A1 pistol:

• The cartridge .45 ACP Hydra-Shok (HS) is a high damage but low penetrating socket head ammunition.

• The 45 ACP Lasermatch FMJ meanwhile, is a low penetrating tracer bullet.

• The .45 ACP AP will pierce a "class 3" waistcoat as in butter and almost "class 4". We can therefore put it in the category of armor-piercing ammunition (anti-armor).

The famous 9x19 mm caliber is enriched with two new references:

• The cartridge 9x19 mm QuakeMaker has a socket head bullet. It does great damage but pierces little.

• The 9x19 mm 7N31 dethrones the AP 6.3 to pierce vests by bullets. It is now the best anti-armor ammunition in 9x19mm.

Medium Caliber

A .366 type ammunition arrives with this 0.12.7:

• The .366 AP-M is an anti-armor munition.

Large Caliber

On the side of ammunition that hurt, it is:

• The 7.62x51 mm M993 which makes its introduction, it pierces with two points more than the M61, but also loses 3 damage points. So difficult to decide between the two.

Grenades

The arrival of the FN GL40 grenade launcher is accompanied by no less than 6 different 40x46mm grenades:

• Five grenades are ready to go identical, namely: M381, M386, M406, M433, M441. They all do 199 flesh damage and have a minimum distance between 5 and 4 m and a maximum between 8 and 13 m.

• Only the M576 (MP-APERS) is a buckshot grenade.

NEW STIMULANTS

With the arrival of the new boss on Littoral (Shoreline), new stimulants have appeared:

• 3- (b-TG),

• L1 (Noradrenaline),

• P22 (Specimen 22),

• AHF1-M,

• Meldonine,

• Cocktail "Obdolbos",

• M.U.L.E.

We won't detail all of their characteristics here, as their bonuses and penalties are numerous. I'll let you discover them in-game. Special mention all the same for the stimulant called Meldonine, which allows, among other things, to reduce the damage received by 10% for 900 seconds!

SKILLS ADDITIONS AND IMPROVEMENTS

Surgery (New)

• The surgical skill has just appeared. As its name suggests, you will have to use your surgical kit to assemble it.

Targeted Training (New)

• Yet another new skill. I draw you a drawing on how to mount it!

• As for existing skills, “strength” and “endurance” have been recast.

• In addition, be aware that your character's thorax has gained 5 health points, so it now goes to 85 health.

OPTIMIZATIONS / CORRECTIONS

• This 0.12.7 comes with a lot of optimizations and fixes. I'll spare you this long list.

MODIFICATION

• Once in the menu, following a raid, we can now know the time remaining before the disappearance of a bleed.

• Now, while searching for a raid, if it is not successful after 45 minutes, the search will be canceled automatically. But frankly, between us, who has already waited 45 minutes ?! Anyway, I never ...

• The SV-98 and PPSh animations have been redone.
