Escape from Tarkov is a popular online multiplayer game with a large following of dedicated players. The game has recently released patch 0.13.0.3 with new updates and fixes to improve the overall player experience. One of the significant changes is the reworked player group system, which allows players to gather their friends in a group and use their stash or Hideout while the group leader sets up the raid. In this blog, we will explore the new changes in detail and how they will impact the gameplay.
Reworked Player Group System:
The new player group system in Escape from Tarkov has been reworked to make it easier for players to gather their friends in a group and start a raid. The group leader now handles all the settings, including the raid location, game mode, and time of day. After the group leader sets up the raid, all group members receive a raid invite. Players can cancel the invite if they are not ready yet.
Co-op Practice Mode:
In the Co-op practice mode, players can gather up to 20 people in the group, depending on the location. After a raid, the group will stay with the same participants that were in it. The only exception is the Co-op practice mode with more than 5 participants, in which only the first 5 members stay in the group.
Changed Quest Reward Skill Calculation:
The quest reward skill calculation has been changed in patch 0.13.0.3. Players will now always receive skill levels in the amount specified in the quest. This change will help players progress through the game more efficiently and reduce frustration from unclear or inconsistent rewards.
List of Fixes:
The patch also includes a long list of fixes to address issues that players have been experiencing. These include fixing an issue that caused invisible players and bots in raids, adjusting and optimizing the visuals of light sources on Streets of Tarkov location, fixing the AI behavior issue of Zryachiy and his guards that led to them not attacking hostile players at short distances, and much more.

Escape from Tarkov's latest patch has made significant changes to the player group system and introduced several fixes to improve the overall gameplay experience.
