Escape from Tarkov 12.12 patch notes 2/3

Escape from Tarkov 12.12 patch notes – 0.12.12.0.16029

1. Added Lighthouse location. The Cape Dalniy lighthouse was an important strategic landmark on the road to Tarkov. It was used as a base of operations and entry point by USEC units during Contract Wars. Scavs began to take a liking to the place after the conflict. The old owners returned and decided to return to Tarkov to establish their own order.

This is the first version of this location. The territory will expand in the future and will feature new Bosses.

2. Lighthouse will have a new AI type, ex operatives of the USC. Also known as Rogues. They are an old gang of PMCs that used to work together. They are well-armed and well-trained, and they use coordinated combat tactics. Although they share similar interests as the Raiders, they have a common military past.

Rogue USECs have seized control of the water treatment plant and are now firmly established there. Numerous fighters are stationed around the perimeter to protect the area. The guards use suppressive fire to stop the enemy from entering their territory if they detect an enemy in a fire area or suspect that there may be one.

These bots have become more lenient towards USEC PMC. They won’t open fire on a USEC player unless he attempts to enter their territory. If the player is caught too close to them, they will give an order for him to leave and if he doesn’t comply, he will be shot. If a USEC player is with a BEAR PMC they will both be considered hostile and attacked without warning.

A USEC player who engages in combat with the Rogues will be considered a traitor. He will also be treated hostile for the next few raids.

3. For more realistic movements and actions, the game has added inertia. These are some examples of where inertia can manifest itself:

  • Walking and strafing
  • Sprinting
  • sharp turns during sprinting
  • Landing after falling or jumping from a height
  • Sidestepping and leaning

The equipment’s weight and Strength skill level determine the inertial force. The Strength skill level will be lower the more heavy your equipment is.

  • The longer it takes for you to accelerate at the beginning of movement (walk strafe sprint),
  • The longer it takes for you to slow down after stopping your movement (walk, strafe or sprint).
  • The longer it takes for you to accelerate and slow down when you change direction from one to the other;
  • Sprinting in sharp turns causes your speed to drop.
  • The stronger and more powerful movements speed after landing from a height jump or fall decreases.
  • The slower you are able to lean, the more you can return to your normal position after leaning. Sidestep.

For characters with Elite Strength level, the inertial force is increased from 0 to 10 kg equipment weight. Maximum inertial force is reached with 70 kg equipment weight for characters of Strength level 0, and 80 kg for Elite Strength level characters.

 

4. Expanded Crouching and Getting upMechanics. The degree of weight overload will determine the length of these actions. The amount of stamina used for getting up is dependent on how high the character stands.

5. Added the weapon mechanics. Weapons can also suffer from misfires.

  • Failure to eject after firing – the cartridge becomes jammed by the bolt, partially visible in the port for ejection. This problem can be traced back to the technical state of the weapon.
  • Failure to feed – After firing, problems arise with the cartridge feed. Rounds can get stuck in the mechanism of the weapon or cartridge case. This problem is most often caused by the weapon magazine, particularly the drum and high capacity magazines. Other causes include cartridge characteristics, weapon heat, and technical condition.
  • Jammed bolt – the bolt becomes jammed after firing. There are two types of jamming: normal or hard. There is only one difference: the time taken to troubleshoot. Overheating the weapon or the technical condition of the weapon can be the cause of a jammed bolt. Hard jamming is only possible at low levels of technical condition (5% or less).

New weapons with durability greater than 93% cannot have malfunctions, except for overheating.

Certain types of weapons are not able to have certain malfunctions because of their design or operation mechanism.

 

To fix the malfunction, first determine the type of the weapon. You can inspect the malfunctioning weapon using the weapon inspection hotkey.

Characters who have the Elite level Troubleshooting skill can detect any type of malfunction immediately, and they don’t need to inspect the weapon.

After events or actions that are related to malfunctions (malfunction incidence, determining the type, fixing a malfunction), a colored notice is displayed and a sound signal played. You can disable these notifications and sounds in your game settings by unchecking “Malfunction notifications”.

6. Weapon Overheating and other effects have been added.

 

After each shot, weapons heat up. The temperature of each shot will vary depending on the cartridge, barrel, and other heating-related elements (receivers muzzle devices, handguards etc.). ).

The weapon’s temperature is constant, and this is in contrast to heating. The barrel and other cooling elements (receivers muzzle devices, handguards etc.) also affect the cooling rate. ).

You can monitor the barrel’s visual state and the muzzle devices to determine the degree of overheating. In ascending order, there are four stages to overheating. Each stage of heat can have new and more severe consequences.

  • A slight overheating is when the weapon is heated but not reddening the barrel or muzzle devices. The barrel, muzzle and handguard are heated. There is also possible mirage (heat cloud) from the barrel or muzzle devices.
  • Medium overheating – The weapon is heated. Reddening of the barrels and muzzle devices can be seen. These effects include a decrease in accuracy, increased malfunction chances, wear, and a reduction in the weapon’s maximum durability during firing.
  • Extreme overheating: The weapon’s temperature is extremely high, and the barrel as well as the muzzle devices are hot. Possible cooking-off chance, weapon’s fire rate changes.
  • Maximum overheating – When this level is reached, a malfunction takes place – the bolt becomes jammed.

7. Improved mechanics of outside ammo . When calculating flight trajectory and energy, it is now possible to take into account the bullet weight, initial velocity, bullet diameter, shape, and ballistic coefficient. In the past, only the bullet weight and initial velocity were considered.

 

This made it possible to get maximum correspondence with real-life data. The loss of any type of damage that depends on the distance of the bullet and the impact of bullet velocity changes on damage and penetration have been fixed. The drop in damage for 5.45×39 was approximately 20% at 150m distance. However, if the barrel is longer, which increases the velocity and damages, the penetrative capabilities and damage are also increased. It is important to understand that not all ammunition has data or are incomplete. These ammunitions will be modified as soon as the data is available.

8. Adjusted recoil mechanics during shooting:

  • Reduced the automatic recoil compensation for firing long bursts
  • Skills have reduced the recoil reduction bonuses
  • General refinements and improvements to the weapon recoil mechanism

9. VOIP is an enhanced voice communication function. You will need to enable it by going to the sound settings, and checking the “Enable VoIP” box.

This functionality allows for negotiation and coordination.

 

You should not misuse VOIP. This can cause problems for both you and the other players.

Insults, music playing, clogging of the air and other inappropriate behavior when using VOIP could lead to the blocking of its functionality or the banning of the account.

  • VOIP is only available in-raid or in the Push to-talk mode.
  • Talking for longer than 15 seconds in a row is not allowed. This means that you cannot talk for more than 15 seconds consecutively in raids.
  • To often pressing the Push-to talk button will cause a temporary auto-block.
  • Reports can be sent regarding inappropriate VOIP usage. Go to the gesture menu, and click the report button. This will allow you to report inappropriate VOIP usage. You can’t report members of your group.
  • The distance to the speaker and all sound modifiers such as active headphones, walls, floor, walls, room partitions, floor, walls, active headphones, lowered glasses, etc., will affect the audibility of the voice.
  • Scavs can listen to players talk.
  • You can quickly disable VOIP using the hotkey or the gesture menu.
  • You can reassign the Push-to-talk hotkey in control settings.

10. Added the Operational Tasks

  • All types of operational tasks now have the description variety.
  • The completed operational tasks statistics were added to the player stats screen.
  • For the “exit the place” type tasks, the “exit through the particular extract” condition was added.

11. The ability to use part of different food and beverages has been added.

 

  • The amount consumed does not affect the duration of the effect. The duration of the effect does not change, nor the strength or delay before it starts.
  • All buffs can only stack up to the original buff value.
  • Negative buffs can also be used up to their original value.
  • Negative buffs consider skills (in particular the Metabolism skill which reduces the duration of negative effects by up to 50%).
  • Negative buffs consider immunity up to the maximum Metabolism skill levels.

12. Added New Items:

  • New weapons
  • New parts for weapons
  • 4 brand new hand grenades, including impact grenades
