Escape from Tarkov New 0.8 Patch update screenshots and info

This game update introduces the new Interchange map, modern and somewhat atypical compared to the rest of Tarkov locations so far.


The Interchange, beside obvious highways, features a huge shopping mall with shops and restaurants. The new location provides conditions for honing new confined space combat tactics. It should be noted that some time after the update there won’t be any AI adversaries on location, they will be added in the following patches. Also, traditionally, along with a new location, the game has introduced a new dealer - Ragman, who sells everything related to garments and equipment.


In the current update we has applied new, experimental methods for optimising game physics handling on client and server, as well as new means to reduce network latency. In addition, specifically for the new Interchange map, new object rendering optimisation technology was applied. Over the course of the upcoming testing these methods will be applied to other locations as well, resulting in an additional performance gain. We admit that in the process of testing the new game update, players may experience various problems associated with new methods of optimisation and new game features. All the emerging problems will be processed through the system of bug reports and promptly fixed. Moreover, the launcher was updated as well, along with numerous other fixes and changes. New EFT update has also introduced a basic tutorial that is going to help new players to understand and master the basic mechanics of the game faster and better.















After this update, players will have to spend more time on loading and unloading of the magazines, check the number of cartridges in the magazine and chamber. Different magazines affect the loading/unloading rate differently, and there is now a new specialised character skill - Mag Drills.

Other additions to the game content include new weapons, among them Springfield Armory M1A, Remington 870, AAR, APB and new models of AK including 100-series as well as numerous items for weapon modification. Overall, we added more than 60 new gear and equipment items to the game, including bags and vests, body armours and helmets, weapon modifications, ammunition and medicine cases, hats, glasses, balaclavas. A detailed list of the new equipment was previously posted on the official website of the game and in our social network communities.

Finally the update has been combined with the long-anticipated profile reset.

The following updates, along other improvements and changes, are going to further improve the project performance, network quality, bug fixes, add new game combat mechanics. Soon, the game is scheduled to feature the advanced armour system, flea market, Hideout and other features that were mentioned in the plans for 2018 https://www.escapefromtarkov.com/news/id/106?lang=undefined. Development and testing of the future innovations are already underway. Also, the test results of this update will have a crucial influence on deciding the Open Beta launch date.

Take note that first hours after the update servers may experience heavy load leading to increased matching time possible network delays.
