The hardcore survival shooter Escape from Tarkov is currently undergoing changes. Up until March 13th, exactly 22 quests were changed. What are these small updates about?
Tarkov is changing: An ancient proverb says that April showers bring May flowers. However, the developer Battlestate Games moved the said month of innovations forward, because until March 13th the guys changed a whole 22 quests in Escape from Tarkov. Scandal? No, not really, at least according to the patch notes shared via Twitter. (These were also massively expanded to include replies to the tweet).
Essentially, the numerous adjustments take effect on the experience points received for completing the quests in question. And they do so neatly. In many cases, the XP chunk has been raised to more than double, and in some cases the amount has even quadrupled. Twitter fans took the changes relatively calmly, although some demanded compensation for those who had previously completed the adjusted quests.
