Escape from Tarkov appears to have a new BTR-focused task on Lighthouse. The task is titled Honest Review, and one player received it instead of the expected Battery Change assignment. Patch 1.1.5.0 introduced the Lighthouse BTR patrol and several new Lighthouse tasks, as detailed in the Patch 1.1.5.0 notes.

The task’s description focuses on a section of the Water Treatment Plant that was previously inaccessible by vehicle. Its visible objectives send players to three locations across Lighthouse.
Honest Review’s Lighthouse objectives
- Scout the intersection at the village on Lighthouse.
- Scout the UN checkpoint on the main road at Lighthouse.
- Scout the parking area between the main buildings at the Water Treatment Plant on Lighthouse.
The locations line up with the Lighthouse rework’s planned BTR changes, which include a vehicle patrol with several route variants across the map. The Lighthouse overhaul also covers new routes around the main road and Water Treatment Plant, making these scouting points more relevant than a routine list of map landmarks.
Only the active task panel is visible, so its unlock requirement, full reward, and relationship with Battery Change remain unclear. For now, Honest Review’s three scouting objectives are the confirmed requirements shown in-game.
Have you received Honest Review instead of Battery Change, and do you think its scouting locations fit the BTR’s route changes? Share your thoughts in the comments, and follow us on X, Bluesky, YouTube, Instagram, Steam, and Telegram.
