Fixing different stuff and uploading hotfixes
Performances on military base are not what we expected (something went wrong and we are fixing it)
We are reading your responses and making hot changes to refine progression and balance (this is pretty normal especially with such a big update)
Powering up with your positive feedback and ready to go further! We will make balanced updates within reasonable periods of time. Sorry, that we kept you waiting for so long!

Hello there, Tarkovians!
We decided to write down quick status of what is going on and what is planned to do until the end of this December.
So, right now, as we mentioned earlier, mostly we are working on the fixes. Some of them are really hard to reproduce so it is taking some time.
Current plan is to have one more (or maybe two) small patches before the end of this year with:
- Fixes of some most annoying bugs (for example infinite healing, different crash and disconnects causes)
- Ongoing reduction of freezes and stuttering
- Different map fixes (physical collider fixes, culling fixes etc)
- Rework of stationary weapon positions on Reserv Base
- New content (clothing, weapons, gear - the amount is being determined right now)
And more
Other ongoing processes:
- Loot table changes
- Economy system testing and balancing
- Scav AI testing and balancing
- Upgrading of server infrastructure
So, this is it. In the end of this year we will post annual report, where we will tell about what do we plan to do in the next year!
Thanks you for staying with us and have a good raids!

<@&545185755111096331> Dear Escapers!
We believe many of you encounter backend issues lately (login issues, disconnects, error 200, 1000, 500 etc.). And many of you just saying - "just buy more servers".
Right now backend server infrastructure consists around 150 servers and this number is rising constantly.
Unfortunately you can't solve some critical bugs or infrastructure problems only with server number increase.
Many issues popping up only with high load testing - which is going on right now.
As it was said before - player numbers are rising fast, load is rising and the chances of critical malfunctions are also rising.
So, that's what we are doing right now 24/7 - we receive a failure - patch it, receive new - patch it and so on. We are refining the system.
So, just to summarize:
-yes, we know about every issue with servers (we are monitoring situation 24/7)
-we are actively working on modifying current backend infrastructure LIVE (it also could lead to game failures unfortunately)
-it's not caused by DDOS or any other attack (although it happens on top of everything sometimes too)
-it's not caused by hardware problems right now (although it happens on top of everything too)
-Stabilizing backend is the most prioritized task and it looks like full scale investigation within the backend/client system
-Adding new game servers is also prioritized task (added x2 servers already from the start of this year)
We are deeply sorry about this issues and doing everything we can to make everything stable ASAP!
We are aware of the issue you encounter and we forwarded the information to the development team. Thank you for your patience and sorry for the inconvenience caused.
We've installed a technical update of the client to improve the stability of the game. Everyone needs to download the update through the launcher. <@&545185755111096331>

Hello, rebziki!
So, after the dust has settled, We decided to give you current status - what is going on and what's planned for the patch 12.5.
First of all, no matter what, thank you for your feedback related to new features - we did a lot of balancing changes to weight system, we fought headbobbing problem and currently working on hotfixes related to all the major problems you described recently.
Also we are continuing to modify servers, currently testing new load balancing system to increase the amount of free rooms to play, adding new servers in different regions. Actively working with BattlEye.
So, the next 0.12.5 patch will be 95% fixes and optimizations. It will include a couple of features like quick after raid healing, post-effects filters, no additional content.
That's it! As we said before - we plan to do patches every month. So it will be not so long till 0.12.5.
Thank you for support! The game will be more complex, we will introduce many features that will require testing and changes - don't forget this!
And the most importantly - stay safe and be careful in this difficult times!

Friends! The first Escape from Tarkov tournament took place yesterday in a unique for eSports events- Bingo! format, developed and prepared together by the Twitch Rivals team and our studio. The winners and prize-winners of the European and American stages are determined and deserve only praise. All participants performed very worthy. Keep it up, we are proud of you and our incredible community!
During the tournament, all spectators had the opportunity to get Drops from the following categories of items - Common, Rare and Legendary. For teams completing certain tasks and closing Bingo lines, viewers received Common and Rare drops, and on the Twitch Rivals channel there was a chance to get Legendary. So, we issued 3294803 drops (2548077 | 705594 | 41132) with a total value of almost 198 billion in-game rubles, of which more than 300 thousand unique items with Twitch Rivals logos.
Unfortunately, not everything went smoothly and as planned. The tournament was postponed twice due to recent events taking place in the world, but the preparations went on non-stop for the past few weeks. Due to various circumstances, the judges from the Twitch Rivals team made mistakes, for this reason the rules and conditions for completing some tasks were not completely transparent, and the results could both please and disappoint. That's why it was the FIRST experience to work on bugs, break in ideas and hold the next events in new, even more exciting formats. Our Twitch friends will for sure consider all your and our wishes and comments.
It is always nice to win, it is an honor to take third place, and silver often goes with bitterness, especially when gold was so close. For this reason, we want to specially note the teams that took second places at their stages. The teams in the composition of Honeymad/Aimlul/C_a_k_e and Lvndmark/Worrun/Willerz showed incredible results and the will to win, and their participation will be definitely remembered. Obviously, your victories are ahead.
Thank you all for participating, everything has just only begun!

Dear friends. Nikita Buyanov stopped by at one of the popular Escape from Tarkov streamers - Pestily, where he told some insider information regarding upcoming plans for the game and answered some questions. We present to your attention a short clipping of the main topics that Nikita discussed with streamers.
• Information about the wipe will probably be released next week.
• RAID episode 4 is planned in mid-May.
• The next patch 0.12.5 will contain the settings of graphic post-effects. Filters from Nvidia will become unavailable for use.
• The 1911 pistol will be in 0.12.6.
• Kriss Vector - most likely will appear in 0.12.7.
• UMP is in the plans, but there are no exact dates yet.
• Boss on the Shorerile - The orderly is scheduled for 0.12.7
• Rework of skills - the first changes will be in the patch 0.12.7.
• The compass is planned in patch 0.12.7 or 0.12.8.
• Steam Audio - will appear in 0.12.6, this will be the first iteration and it is aimed at improving the quality of sound positioning in the game.
• About 50,000 cheaters were blocked in March. Developers work daily with BattleEye.
• Nikita and the developers do not quite approve the ping limit. For example, due to high ping, players cannot play with friends in different parts of the world. But at the moment, "we have what we have." These are necessary measures to combat cheaters and abusers. In the future, perhaps something on this subject will change and be finalized.
• Players will have the opportunity to send reports of suspicious players, abusive nicknames and bug-abuses (in the near future).
• Nikita once again noted that there will be no microtransactions in the game. This is not a method of dealing with intruders selling loot for real money. Trading for real money violates the license agreement and will lead to account blocking - this is only a matter of time.
• BEAR voice acting that speaks “broken” English will be added to the game.
• Offline game with friends is in the plans, perhaps for this there will be separate servers without gaining experience in raids.
• Button to quickly drop the backpack - in the plans.
• Next location will be either Lighthouse or Streets of Tarkov. The main work goes on Streets of Tarkov
• In 0.12.5 and 0.12.6 there will be various corrections aimed at eliminating freezes and various errors.
• The idea of the ability to do everything all at once in one raid is something that the developers want to get rid of (lurking, shooting, making money). One man - no man - developers want players to have to choose between such things in raids.
• Developers are actively trying to find a balance between the creation of new content and technical updates (bug fixes). Cheaters and bugs take up most of the time for programmers, and they cannot work on new features.
• Nikita and the developers believe that the gameplay at the Escape from Tarkov tournaments does not show the real essence of the game, but it is interesting to watch such tournaments. There will definitely be more tournaments, including those from Twitch - more well-developed.
• Daily tasks (similar to quests from the tournament, random quests) - players will have the opportunity to perform such tasks in the future.
• Merchandise store postponed due to COVID-19.
• Patches 0.12.5 and 0.12.6 will be directed mainly to the technical component. 0.12.7 approximately 50/50 with content. When adding new mechanics, we have to stop and fix errors
• The ability to send loot to the stash and remain in the raid is planned. This means the ability to evacuate a backpack with loot from a location for money.
• Developers are also testing a version of Unity 2019 so they can switch to it soon.
• Unity is a rather complex and specific engine. There are no games like EFT on Unity and most likely will not appear.

In a few minutes we plan to install a technical update on all game servers for game stability improvement. The game will not stop. On updating servers, the raid time will be reduced to 10 minutes.

Highlights of the "TarkovTV" podcast-DevBlog #009 <@&545185755111096331>
● Patch 0.12.5 is planned for the beginning of next week after it there will be 0.12.6, there is no exact release date yet. At the moment, testing is underway and the patchnote for patch 0.12.6 is not ready yet.
● The wipe will take place in 0.12.6, however, we will save the progress of examining items and weapon presets.
● Before wipe, for 3-4 days, there will be pre-wipe events, info about them will be reported closer to the point.
● After the wipe, at the flea market, you will only allowed to sell items that have found in raid status.
● "Run through" status-will reset the “found in raid " status from items.
● Patch 0.12.5 will be without content, it contains fixes, optimization and new mechanics (quick treatment by therapist, mouse sensitivity depending on the multiplicity of the sight, and so on).
● It is planned to rework loot on locations, its spawn locations, and the loot pools themselves.
● Random places with loot are planned. Also, it is planned to introduce a feature so that the AI will protect places with valuable loot.
● The first part of skill system rework will be in 0.12.7.
● Regarding Steam Audio: the developers of Hired Ops asked BSG for a module to implement in their game (HOps). Positioning already works cool, it becomes clear where the enemy is, not just on the left or right, but also behind and above your position or in front and below. The game will have Steam Audio in 0.12.6. You can check this feature out already in Hired Ops.
● A new caliber will be added to the game .45 ACP and several weapons samples are planned for it. In 0.12.6 there will be Colt 1911, later UMP and Kriss Vector.
● Almost the entire team of level designers is working on a new location — Streets of Tarkov. Nikita confirmed that there will be up to 40 players on the map. Developers like the idea that you can get lost on location. The screenshot showed a helicopter flying near one of the high-rise buildings.
● Work is underway on new equipment for the scavs-cheap, bad-looking-something like survival gear.
● It is planned to rebalance various thermal imagers after adding more of them.
● New boss for the Shoreline location, name: Sanitar. Not much of a fighter, who uses stimulants. Also, he will have various unique stimulants in his inventory. One of them is MULE, for carrying weights and another with interesting effects called " Obdolbos”, the development of the Sanitar himself.
● Customs expansion is planned for 0.12.6. One of the new buildings will be the base for Reshala and his crew. Perhaps there will be an underground level at the new part of the location, or at some building.
● In 0.12.7 or 0.12.8 it's planned to add a USP pistol in three variants at once.
● Demonstrated more detailed customization of weapons on the example of Colt 1911.
● Demonstrated a work in progress video of the PPSH. The introduction of PPSH in the game looks logical and realistic, since there are many military warehouses on the territory of Russia, where a large number of PPSH is stored.
● About cheaters: every day from 1500 to 2000 dishonest players are banned. Approximately 50,000 dishonest players were blocked in March. This month it is expected that there will be more of them. The team is constantly working with the BattlEye developers.
● The game will have a system of reports: both on suspiciously acting players, and on all sorts of exploits, bugs, and obscene nicknames.
● Post-FX filters will be introduced in patch 0.12.5. NVIDIA has prematurely disabled its FreeStyle filters. They are now working again, but they will be completely disabled starting from May 1. Support for NVIDIA Highlights will also be disabled since this system was used by cheaters.
● Items taken from players in raid will still not have the "found in raid" status.
● Barters for dogtags will continue to be added. Conditions for bartering with dogtags are planned to be revised (quantity, levels).
● About the cultists: Nikita refused to talk about it, the players will see for themselves when they are added. In which patch? In any.
● Unity is scheduled to be updated to version 2019. This will give devs even more tools for optimizing and developing the project.
● They work with spawns on maps all the time. Bugs are being fixed. Spawn points are edited constantly, including the ones based on feedback from players. The following patches will also bring changes for spawns fixing.
● With the wipe, there will also be changes in the VAL/VSS characteristics.
● In post-raid treatment, you will be able to see statistics on damaged parts of the body — injuries (where, how, and with what cartridge). More detailed reports may be added in the future.
● Customization of armored rigs and plate carriers is quite a big and serious feature. Most likely it will be added in patch 0.13, along with Streets of Tarkov .
● Compass: possibly in 0.12.7.

Hello, Escapers! <@&545185755111096331>
Recently, account theft cases have become more frequent and we strongly recommend supplementing your security settings with two-factor authorization. You can enable two-factor authorization in the security settings located on your profile page. To use it, you should install the google authenticator program on your phone or tablet. After connecting, it will display shortcodes which should be entered during authorization. This will greatly complicate the life of attackers trying to encroach on your belongings!
Thank you for your attention!
Respectfully yours, the Escape from Tarkov team.

BattleState is listening to the community and their reports about hit registration, and wants to have as detailed information about this issue as possible! Therefore we will need as detailed diagnostic information from you as possible. Please help out by providing diagnostics in the following thread to the developers so they can find the cause of hit registration issues, and resolve them.

Recently, account theft cases have become more frequent and we strongly recommend supplementing your security settings with two-factor authorization. You can enable two-factor authorization in the security settings located on your profile page. To use it, you should install the google authenticator program on your phone or tablet. After connecting, it will display shortcodes which should be entered during authorization. This will greatly complicate the life of attackers trying to encroach on your belongings!
Thank you for your attention!

Our team is constantly working on improving Escape from Tarkov. With each patch we add new mechanics, functionality and content to the game, but more and more time we spend on testing and identifying potential problems and bugs. We need your help!
To test and run new features, content and updates before they appear in the game, and to enable players to contribute to the world of Escape from Tarkov, we launch Early Test Server (ETS).
ETS is also designed to help identify unobvious problems, bugs, and deficiencies, as well as complex bugs that cannot be found in a short time with limited effort. Thanks to your efforts, players on the main servers will receive a more stable and improved version of the game with every next update, and we in turn will get more useful information for quick fixes of detected errors.
To participate in ETS testing, you will need to apply for registration through a special form in the launcher, after which the participants will be selected. To participate in selection, you will need an active copy of Escape from Tarkov
TarkovReporters Contest!
Part 2 of our Tarkov Reporters Screenshot contest is over and again we saw some amazing screenshots! This time the theme was "Mysterious Places"
Here is the screenshot that made the third place!
Cheers to MoyWik | UwU!
BattleState Games via our Escape From Tarkov Emissary from the Philippines aka Neomass wants you to please consider supporting this CHARITY EVENT held by local EFT-streamers Jigstermon and @sl0wkey
CONTEXT:
On November 1, 2020, the northern island of Luzon in my home country of the Philippines was hit by Typhoon Goni/Rolly, a Category 5 super typhoon. Less than 2 weeks later on November 11, 2020, another Typhoon by the name of Vamco/Ulysses devastated my country with both disasters displacing hundreds of thousands of Filipinos and dealing billions of pesos in damage to infrastructure and agriculture.
In partnership with my local medical school, Cebu Doctors' University - College of Medicine, and its student organizations, we are launching Project AYUDA - Typhoon Ulysses Relief Response. Personally, I want to able to do my part in helping those in need and give back to my local community with the best of my abilities.
THE PLAN:
We will be doing a 4-day charity livestream (schedule will be posted below) while playing #EscapeFromTarkov with the goal of raising $1000 (Php 46,000-50,000) in Direct Donations via StreamLabs for the victims of both Typhoon Goni and Vamco. We highly implore our community, the Frag Fam, and other people who will watch the stream to STOP SENDING STARS/BITS towards the STREAMERS during this event, and let's focus on spreading our love and generosity to those who need it the most. I believe in this community, in compassion, and in the will of the human spirit.
TRANSPARENCY:
Since Tiltify and other third party apps are not available, the donations will pass through the streamers PayPal business account. All donations will be logged on StreamLabs, and at the end of the charity event, We will forward all donations via GCash (local money transfer app) to Ms. Athena V. Chiu (Treasurer of ALSA CDU-CM) whom is in charge of managing the donations for the procurement of relief goods to be sent to the northern islands. I will personally share to this group all transactions for full disclosure and transparency.
SCHEDULE:
Day 1 - November 15, 2020 at 2pm - 12mn PHT (GMT +8) Split to Twitch and FB
Day 2 - November 16, 2020 at 2pm - 12mn PHT (GMT +8) Split to Twitch and FB
Day 3 - November 19, 2020 at 2pm - 12mn PHT (GMT +8) Split to Twitch and FB
Day 4 - November 20, 2020 at 2pm - 12mn PHT (GMT +8) Split to Twitch and FB
Let's all do our part in helping out the least of our brothers and sister. We believe we can reach this goal Fram Fam! Even if you can't donate during the charity event, sharing the stream and letting other people know will be such a great help.
Please help them out to reach their goal guys! Let's help out those in need!
