One of the main features of Amazon’s New World is an ongoing struggle between three massive player-run factions for control of Aeternum Island. This is causing some players to behave badly, from harassing members of other factions to loudly shouting obscenities in local voice chat. Today’s update adds a helpful login screen reminding players how to be nice to each other.
Despite the great popularity that New World is gaining in its early days, the MMORPG still has many unpleasant situations that need to be fixed, and the development team has already begun to intervene by releasing update 1.0.1.
It appears that the developer team is having some struggles, but it’s all with effort for a smooth restart of the servers. No matter the downtime, I think everyone will be pleased, thanks to the new AFK system that is supposed to prevent AFK players from staying on the server for a long time. This will translate into a good quality assurance imbuing a shorter queue line.
For starters, this patch does not contain the ability to hop servers so you can join your friends. Amazon has made world transfer a priority, but they say it is not ready for this patch and they’re still working on it. What took priority initially was getting queue times down from launch, which has mostly been fixed by now.
Will the new message make a difference? Maybe it will. Maybe players getting a little too into the in-game conflict will see the screen, realize what they have been doing, and change their ways. Maybe all they needed was a “Before You Play” screen to remind them how to treat other human beings.
In addition to fixing many bugs, the update intervenes on queues, adding a confirmation screen when a player tries to leave the queue for a server, asking the same player to confirm if he intends to leave the queue. This will help ensure that no one accidentally leaves the queue and loses their seat in line.
In addition to this, this first major update for New World changes and corrects several other game situations, and you can consult the complete patch notes directly on the official website of the new successful MMORPG.
That is essentially the bulk of the changes here. They kept saying “quality of life” issues, and yet I would classify most of these as bug fixes, and I don’t consider things like shortening AFK timers “quality of life” but okay. We will see what future patches hold, and when character world transfer will finally get here, now that it’s top priority.
