Nikita Buyanov recently announced a significant overhaul of the weapon ergonomics system in Escape from Tarkov. This update promises to bring a fresh level of realism to the popular extraction shooter.
This time, the head of Battlestate Games shared a full gameplay teaser on social media, demonstrating the upcoming changes:
“Well, here we go 🙂 I’ve always wanted to implement this approach to aiming in EFT because currently it looks unrealistic and linear. We will refine it a bit more and test it on ETS first.”
The teaser showcases a more dynamic and non-linear aiming experience, departing from the current static system. This change aims to provide a more immersive and realistic feel for players.
