Some information from the second russian podcast "TarkovTV"

December 1, 2018

Greetings escapers!

I want to present you some information from the second russian podcast "TarkovTV".

At the current moment, we are not talking about complete realism of the economy, since the saling merchandise is endless.

Q: What to do with the situation when some sorts of ammo do not spawn in military crates (green crates)?

A: If there will be boxes (I mean ammo boxes) - will spawn.

Q: And if in bulk?

A: Perhaps (Nikita recorded himself)

Patch 0.11 will be released before the new year.

Field surgical kit - the implementation of the recovery of knocked out limbs. At first time it will be for a single use. The planned size of the subject is 2x1.

Defibrillator - at the current state only a model was made. In the future we plan to realize loss of consciousness.

New container - KAPPA.

One of invited streamer proposed an idea of event with falling closed containers with expensive equipment. The main idea is to get to the place (it is possible to find it where it is) and pick up this container, for this you need a large backpack. With a successful exit from the location, this container is given to a special trader for opening (for this, it may be necessary to find and bring some tool or item and maybe pay him for working).

Nikita - the closed containers are already implemented in the game, they are simply not used. Perhaps something like that will be.

The arena will be similar to the arena in Stalker. Fame points are planned. (For example, extra points for entering the arena exclusively with melee weapons).

In patch 0.11: Remington 700, Boar Hunter, RPK 16 with a drum magazine, civil M16 (russian equivalent), possibly SVD;

RPK 16 will be the most expensive of the representatives of the AK series. The cost of Remington will vary between DVL and SV.

After 0.11 - the next two patches are the implementation of the Shelter;

Story quests are planned after the release of all locations;

Karma is planned.

Q: How often will new maps come out?

A: Planned 2 locations in two months. Content is already ready for 25 locations.

We have plans realize of using stationary weapons.

The next location after the laboratory is a military base.

Q: What's up with the in-game connection (VoiP)?

A: Planned at 0.11, but maybe later.

Q: Earlier, something was said about a separate test server.

A: Yes, PTS is planned. We are thinking of how it will be added.

New year hats will appear again like last year. Perhaps also false beards will be added.

Q: What about cultists?

A: There will be a separate quest dedicated to this topic. It will be impossible to play for them. These NPCs will appear at night. There will be two kinds: fighters and monks.

Q: Will there be a Molotov cocktail?

A: Not currently planned.

Q: Rating system. What is it for?

A: A kind of entertainment content. A new season is coming soon (starting next week?). Well, to check for abuse.

Q: What did you decide about game merchandise?

A: After the New Year, we will deal with this question.

A new optimization on graphics will be introduced. Nikita guarantees that the game will run faster.

Planned protection system from abusing of gamma settings.

The next book of "Predator" story is ready.

Next year should be the final one.

In one of the planned DLC autumn (snow) will be implemented.

Bosses will be on almost every location. Each is unique.

The next boss location after Killa will be in the woods.

Clothing in 0.11 will be either in small quantities, or completely delayed.

Gifts for New Year. (Nikita made a note)

End game content

Perhaps the implementation of a separate character with a seasonal wipe. Since most of the players like it.

Q: How is the progress with under-barrel grenade launcher

A: Not yet. We are currently working on solving problems associated with weapons (sticking, etc.).

Addictive and overdose will be implemented for medical preparations.

Radiation and diseases will be part of DLC.

In an upcoming year we are planning to perform the transition to Unity 2018 and work with sound.

Thanks for your time. And sorry for my english.)

This is not exactly what he said, he said they are working very hard to release it before the end of the year, that's the goal. But it might be later if some things go wrong (at least that's what the english translated stream claimed).

I don't think Nikita gives concrete deadlines like these anymore.

Another thing Nikita spoke of was the transition to Unity 2018 which is well underway.
