Escape From Tarkov players are in for another update, as Battlestate Games has made some new changes to the game. The latest update was released today, March 7, and includes changes to the Flea Market and item examining.
One of the most notable changes is that most items will now be examined by default. This means that players will no longer need to manually examine most items before they can use them. Additionally, the ability to place barter offers on the Flea Market has been removed. Active barter offers will still be available until the offer timer expires, but offers that require weapons as barter will no longer be available for trade and will be returned to players after the offer timer expires.
The update also includes some adjustments to the base prices of certain items and a reduction in the offer fee on the Flea Market. These changes aim to make the game’s economy more balanced and to reduce the impact of players who use the Flea Market for RMT (Real Money Trading) purposes.
