AI Summary
Escape from Tarkov's new patch introduces a revamped spawn system, a major expansion to the Shoreline map, and several new weapons and gear. The video provides a hands-on overview of these features, including gameplay impressions and performance notes.
Players can now choose between the default spawn or a random location on the map, provided they have a map in their inventory. The video demonstrates selecting a different extraction point on Woods.
Shoreline has been expanded to its full size, adding new buildings, hotels, and office areas. Expect FPS drops (45-55) initially, with a hotfix likely to improve performance.
A new shotgun is showcased. The expanded Shoreline area contains many rooms with loot, but most require keys. It's speculated that existing dorm keys may work, but this is unconfirmed.
Four new weapons are introduced: the SR-1MP suppressed pistol, the RSASS semi-automatic sniper, the TOZ-106 bolt-action shotgun, and the AKMS (with foldable stock). Variations like AKMN and AKS-74UB are also added.
New helmets with tactical attachments, face armor (side armor for Ops-Core FAST helmet), and the Wilcox Skull Lock head mount are added. New skills include pistols, SMGs, assault rifles, shotguns, DMRs, recoil control, and mental skills like perception and memory.
The patch brings significant content to Escape from Tarkov, but performance issues on Shoreline may require a hotfix. Players should explore the new areas and experiment with the new weapons and gear.

[00:00] tarkov today is the day they've God new cool patch and there's gonna be lots of things to talk about so let's get into it first of all most has been a lot of chatter at about the spawn system that
[00:13] this is how the new spawn system and as long as you have a map in your inventory location for you to deploy you can either deploy like you'd normally deploy on the left side or you can choose somewhere randomly on the map this time
[00:28] you can probably get the scape house at the end so we'll go ahead and choose to see how it all works so I'm gonna choose the south VX traction instead of
[00:40] the exit I'm gonna choose the middle one which is gonna be past the lumber mill and if you played woods quite a couple of times you'll know where that is it's gonna be that red gate on that dirt road that leads into sort of middle of
[00:54] choose the second second spawn point and there we have it so it turns out that is the your tour taka here that you can come up to you can actually give him
[01:07] some money and they'll have to sit here and wait for the extraction to happen I believe the money goes out of your inventory out of your stash because I didn't really have 3,000 rubles on me and the extraction still happened anyway
[01:22] so maybe it just goes out of your inventory same thing goes for the how it works the one two and three extractions are gonna work the same but if you choose the second spawn point you will have to go all the way back and
[01:37] basically go back into trailer-park PvE and you'll extract that way but there's also an extraction behind dorms as well same thing with the factory you can extract via the normal X normal extraction and you also need the factory
[01:50] key to be able to extract on the second extraction now the next big thing that we've seen in this patch is the location expansion of shoreline shoreline has been expanded it's finally here it's finally the full map and what we got to
[02:05] do is just come in here and play it now be aware that it's gonna be some serious FPS drops ya have been able to get past 45 sort of 55 that is to be expected when the patch sort of drops everybody's kind of
[02:18] sorts of other things so they'll probably do another hot fix for this just give him a bit of time and this should run a little bit smoother now inside there you're gonna have lots of dorms office buildings hotels basically
[02:33] you can come in and you can easily spend half an hour just going through all these rooms is ask a veneer let's shoot him in the eye one of the new shotguns
[02:49] you'll have a nice helicopter in here inside there's gonna be a gun rack where there too so you can check that weapon crates in a box and hopefully be able to
[03:05] score yourself some weapons now all of these rooms and apartments that I've spent half an hour looking through all of them will need keys now some of them are gonna be open some of them will need keys the one thing I'm not sure of if
[03:17] these are the same keys as the ones used indoors because I have seen kind of the same rooms you know 3 or 3 3 18 to 18 to 20 so I'm guessing that instead of them
[03:29] making 60 keys for you to carry so you can carry individual keys for each of the Maps I'm guessing you probably use the same keys that you use on dorms but don't quote me on that since I haven't tested that out myself but it kind of it
[03:43] gets a bit silly if you're gonna have another 10 20 keys that you need to carry with you to open all the rooms inside here it's gonna take quite a lot of space out of your inventory and for somebody who just has the regular
[03:55] edition of the game it's gonna eat a lot of these sort of space so I'm guessing 303 key it's gonna work in dorms and it's probably gonna work on shoreline as
[04:08] well that's kind of what I'm hoping anyway but you will be able to find a lot of loot around there and you'll be able to find all sorts of rooms and gonna have around here because everybody's gonna try and get here let's
[04:22] just face it dorms sorry Dom shoreline doesn't really have a lot of addition of this new area being added to the game you will find a lot of people
[04:36] in these rooms trying to find out some loot that is gamma Tron they're just waiting for me to do some looting okay and just kill him and then we'll move on
[04:51] to explore a bit more of the area now you can't go through these rooms if like I'm doing here and I must say that is a lot of noise so be careful when
[05:09] going through windows like that because you're basically telling everybody here I am come shoot me now like I mentioned earlier on some of the weapons I have in right now and I'm not gonna go through every single one of these buildings
[05:23] because I'll leave a bit of that mystery to you there's lots of other locations you can find on shoreline lots of little things that they've put in and you will be able to find more interesting places for you to go in but the main zone of
[05:36] sort of PvP and loot and things like that you will be able to find around here now like I said is getting a bit choppy I'm kind of frozen there for a little bit so hopefully that hotfix is gonna be just around the corner and
[05:48] to be a bit iffy it was never really one of those maps that worked beautifully as it work I mean kind of like Customs has a lot of loot on him that's why he's
[06:00] gonna be a bit more choppy and now with including with the introduction of all these buildings you know it's gonna be choppy as hell so I don't really see them doing too much this but hopefully they'll do it enough so as long as you
[06:13] get it about sort of 40 to 50 frames I'll be happy with that so let's just to some weapons now these are some of the new weapons that we got from the
[06:25] game and we'll start off with the new pistol this is the S r1 em a nice suppressed pistol that you can have
[06:40] being quite a while since I'll be wanting for more silenced pistols to come into the game you know my beloved TT got nerfed a couple of patches back so I've been wanting more and more suppressors to come into the game
[06:52] just use them and enjoy them the next gun added to the game is this beauty right here which is the Remington semi-automatic sniper system or the RS a
[07:05] SS the RS ass it's a beautiful weapon that they've added to the game and they said send me automatic snipers they just need it to be in the game so you can I suspect as soon as people get their hands on some of these some of the
[07:25] vendors will sell these higher levels they'll sell them at level 3 maybe even level 4 so I'm really looking forward to seeing a lot more of this weapon on the field so instead of finding a KMS and aks I'll probably find a lot more of
[07:37] these it looks really odd without a skull so let's go ahead and just dump this and pick up the next weapon that's brought in by this patch and the weapon we're looking at it's the tio Z 106 the toz 106 the TOA 106 the small
[07:54] lightweight bolt-action shotgun I gotta say this just feels really awesome in the hand providing that the buckshot and more importantly the slugs actually work
[08:11] in this patch and they work as intended I think this is gonna be the weapon that stock so you can fold this in and you can actually stick this into your gamma will take five slots and you won't be able to stick it in your gamma the next
[08:30] weapon we're looking at is this one the AKMs the AKMs and there's actually another variation of the same weapon in the game which is the AKM N and just like the previous weapon this weapon does have a foldable stock there are a
[08:43] couple more variations of each weapon in the game so for an example the AKM has the and the ak-74 s have the aks-74u B and your beloved Makarov has the PMT which you'll be able to mount a suppressor on
[08:58] now so silence Makarovs for the win we also got some cool little helmets that sorts of tactical stuff on this from my vision to even a better face armor which
[09:10] is called side armor and to read the full thing is his additional armor for the ops core fast helmet which protects the ears from shrapnel and small caliber ricochets and the other thing that's available in the game it's gonna be the
[09:24] Wilcox skull lock head mount now this is made of fabric only so it's not gonna and things like M VG's if you don't want to have a heavy ballistic helmet on your
[09:38] head you can have something like this on top of all this goodness you're also gonna have peacekeeper quest new skier quest you have mental skills perception you've got memory new combat skills like pistols SMGs automatic an assault rifle
[09:52] shotgun DMR's recoil control there's gonna be a lot of new stuff you to cover and spend some time to level up the traders so I can reach some new items I one
