With the launch of Kord Breach season, we have made a significant number of changes aimed at improving the early game experience.
Some types of ammunition and magazines have been moved to earlier stages of progression. For example, you can now go into a raid with a Klin and a set of 30-round magazines loaded with PBM ammo right after your first introduction to Prapor. There are now enough combinations like this to give you more opportunities to hold your own even at the first trader LL.
Building the early stages of your Hideout has also become more convenient, as the initial module levels no longer require components to have the “Found in Raid” status or a specific trader LL. Even if your PMC dies in a raid, the Elite pliers you brought in your secure container will still come in handy.
If you run low on money in your stash, Prapor will now send you a full gear package. This gives you an opportunity to get back on your feet and feel more confident going into a raid. These packages include decent weapon builds, class 4 armor, other equipment and medical supplies - items that are even better than what is available at the lower trader LLs. If your financial situation has not improved by the following day, another such package will become available to you.
In addition, reaching the second and third trader LL has become easier, as the character level requirements have been lowered and the amount of reputation gained from tasks has been reworked. The requirement of a certain total trade volume has been completely removed from the game. There is no longer any need to buy shotguns from Jaeger and immediately sell them back just to unlock the next level of his assortment.
We are continuously working to improve the experience for new players, and this is only a brief overview of the changes we have made. You can find the full list of changes in the patch notes on the official website - or try them out in-game right now! #EscapefromTarkov
@Gabadadi@tarkov Always check “is it down?”. When I got kicked during matching, I checked and there were 800 reports of launcher issues so I knew it was a them thing.
Discord eats up your CPU & RAM the ENTIRE time you're gaming, do yourself a favor and fix that
Only do this it you want more stable frames and lower input delay
Ok so this patch has the following bugs:
- Horrible sound reverb issues back
- Raiders have literally 0 delay and instant kill you
- Item Duping
- 1000x skill points transfer from Arena
- UBGL unlimited ammo spam in PVE
- Containers bug out when opening and have to be closed and opened again.
- Stash lines missing from purchase
This is all from just playing 2 hours. This patch is completely borked @bstategames@tarkov
Watching the official EFT discord general chat when servers don't come up within 12 seconds of the stated time is a guilty pleasure of mine...
It's like going to the zoo, and watching the zoo keepers feed platters of fruit in the primate pens.
@QwertyITA @nikgeneburn They do, they have a whole reddit to provide feedback and they release a community digest that is dedicated to answering that feedback.
