Battlestate Games announced on August 10th,Escape from Tarkov]has released the patch notes for Patch 0.13.5, which is scheduled to be implemented today. In addition to implementing a new boss “Kaban”, a convenient preset function and a function to instruct bots during scav play will appear.
This patch expands Streets of Tarkov. In addition, a new boss “Kaban” appears near the auto repair shop. While making full use of a heavy machine gun, it has low mobility, and it seems that it will move in a fixed position or slowly move between points. Instead, he has many armed guards at his side, and in battle he will need to break through the solid defenses.
In addition, this patch implements a preset function for equipment. It seems that you can select any equipment and save it as a preset with a name. 15 sets of presets can be created immediately after creating a character, and it can be expanded up to 50 sets. When equipping a set from the preset, it will be automatically replenished from the items in the stash. It seems that there will also be a function that allows you to purchase missing items at merchants and flea markets.
Another big tweak is the ability to give bots new instructions when playing as a scav. They can be made to spread out, hide, or even stop talking. Also, when you ask for help, a wide range of bots will respond and gather around the player to fight enemies. However, it says “With a certain chance”, so it doesn’t seem like they will definitely listen to your instructions. The order to the bot seems to depend on the reputation from Fence, so it may be possible to increase the probability by increasing the reputation. All commands also have a cooldown.
In addition, the behavior patterns of bots have also changed. It is said that a scav that works as a team and engages in organized combat will appear with a certain probability. Scavs will also search for corpses and take whatever they like. It is said that they sometimes throw away their original backpacks and rigs and replace them with new ones, making it even more difficult to distinguish between humans and bots. In addition, if the equipment that was insured by the bot is stolen, it will not be returned by insurance.
In addition, various adjustments will be made in this patch. Instead of containers spawning in random locations, we’ve also made adjustments to increase the number of locations where containers spawn across all locations.Click here for detailsOfficial patch notes (English)Please confirm.
