Escape From Tarkov 0.12.9.2 Preliminary Patch Notes revealed

Battlestate Games has revealed the patch notes for the upcoming Escape From Tarkov 0.12.9.2. As it stands, the patch will address a lot of known issues that have been discovered during the course of the existing game version. The upcoming patch 0.12.9.2 does not have an estimated arrival period and may arrive sooner than later.

While some of the issues are not that important, this update will also address server issues that players have been experiencing earlier. This is currently the most annoying segment in which EFT should get an improvement. There are two iterations of server optimization scheduled, which means this update will intensely focus on server-sided problems.

Recently, BSG has enabled server debugging to collect data on how exactly the servers are acting after the latest EFT update. This probably helped them gather all the necessary data to deploy new fixes and improve the server’s stability.

Below you can find the 0.12.9.2 preliminary patch notes.
