Escape From Tarkov and its fashion makes it stand out of other video games. Its realistic aspect is considered to be the most vital part of the game, but having seen multiple performance difficulties, the game is somewhat struggling. Being still in Early Access allows mistakes, and each patch brings many fixes to the table.
According to Battlestate Games, the 0.11.5 patch is focusing only on optimizations and fixes. As such, it is considered to be warmly welcomed among the community. One of the assets in the patch is the AI, which behavior and other attributes are being fixed.
When it comes to the bugs, the number of fixes surely prove Escape From Tarkov has the largest pool of loot ever found in a shooter video game. That makes the developers deal with various bugs, which at the end of the day are the most crucial part to fully releasing the game. Having been rid off, we’re more than sure EFT will become a title for everyone. Probably one of the most played, too.
Below you can find the whole list of changes, probably bigger than any other performance patch.
