This version of the game has added a Flea Market, designed to create a new economic system in the game. Flea Market is a list of items that can be sold by players, every player can try a role of a merchant now. All items are divided into categories, players can use advanced search engine, a wish list and and other convenient filters and features for easy use with the new system. Every player can lay out any items for sale, exchange them for the items he needs, buy items from other players.
Moreover the encyclopedia-handbook for items already examined by the character appeared in the game.

With new patch the first iteration of player’s seasonal global Ranking are available on the game website. Its functionality is also not final and will be supplemented and refined in subsequent patches.
Behavior of AI were significantly improved. They became more effective and predictable opponents at the same time, besides there were eliminated most of the cases where the AI behaved strangely.
We continue to expand the concept of a realistic shooter. Blunt damage now depends on a armor class and bullet penetration ratio. Ergonomics is now calculated in a different way: mods values are added to the characteristics of the weapon that they are placed on, the skills and armor penalties are still added as a percentage. Furthermore the final weight of the weapon influences the characteristics of the ergonomics. Aiming speed, weapon sway, alignment of the line of sight, loudness of equipment noise when aiming depends on the characteristic of ergonomics.
Finally, with new quests and quest mechanics there were added MP7A1 SMG and new mods for Mosin rifle, as well as an ability to place players’ tags in a containers in the stash.
