Recommended Posts

The second New World patch has arrived, and while it doesn't bring the announced server transfer feature with it, it does lay the groundwork for it, as well as fix the faction influence issues and a whole lot of bugs as well.

Amazon LogoPatch 1.0.2 (Source)

New World Update: 1.0.2 will release at 3AM PT (10AM UTC) on October 13.

Greetings Adventurers!

This week’s update brings in another swathe of bug fixes, alongside laying additional groundwork for the upcoming server transfer feature. Many members of our team are still working tirelessly on ensuring everyone can find a world to call their long-term home with the character transfer feature. We’ll have more information on server transfers when they’re ready, and you can check out our forums announcement for initial details. In the meantime, you can find the list of bug fixes we’ve addressed below.

Faction Missions:

We adjusted the rates of influence gain over time so that it will continue to require significant effort over time to flip a territory into conflict state:

  • Reduced the amount of influence increase over time significantly for attacking factions. This is to account for a bug we found where the increase was multiplied much faster than intended over time.

  • Removed the decrease in influence over time for defending factions.

Bug Fixes:

General Bug Fixes:
  • Fixed an issue where players could respawn as a corpse.

  • Fixed an issue where the tier 3 fishing treasure chest wouldn’t fight back after being hooked.

  • Fixed various localization issues and text fields.

  • Fixed an issue causing players kicked, suspended, banned, or removed from the game by Easy Anti-Cheat to receive unclear communication. Additional messaging has been added so players can better understand the penalty they received.

  • Fixed an issue causing territory influence to be reset after an Invasion.

  • Fixed an issue where players attempting to take a split amount of stacked items from a different settlement their faction owns, they were charged for the entire cost of the items in the stack.

  • Fixed a game crash caused by a player targeting another player with a healing effect at the exact moment they fast traveled or teleported away.

  • Fixed an issue reducing variety and potential quantity of loot obtained from game modes and chests within the world.

  • Fixed an issue causing some crafting bonuses to not provide the minimum intended values.

  • Fixed an issue where overflow items in storage transferred to a different territory.

  • Fixed an issue where petting Barkimedes caused the camera to jitter.

  • Fixed an issue causing the Ice Pylon ability to not cooldown appropriately.

  • Fixed an issue where settlement storage can become massively overflowed by expired contracts.

  • Fixed an issue where player’s movement could stutter after becoming encumbered from logging.

  • Fixed an issue where there were not enough chests at Hapless Homestead to fulfill Faction quest requirements.

  • Fixed an issue causing players to randomly teleport.

  • Fixed an issue where players disappear if standing still when a campsite turret blueprint is being held.

  • Fixed a visual issue causing repeater turrets to appear as if they were firing projectiles at an angle that did not align with the turret.

  • Fixed miscellaneous game crashes.

AI Fixes:
  • Fixed an issue where Marshjaw respawned slower than intended at Flatfish Fishery.

  • Fixed an issue causing certain bears to respawn faster than intended.

  • Fixed an issue causing twice the intended number of Boars to spawn at the Boarsholm POI in Restless Shores.

Store Fixes:
  • Fixed an issue where players could be prompted to purchase an item they had previously started the unlocking process on in the in-game store when trying to unlock another item immediately after.

  • Fixed an issue causing store previews for skins to not work correctly when the player was actively wielding a weapon.

  • Fixed an issue where the Righteous Guardian armor skin would not change color in War.

  • Fixed an issue where the

    Runic Bear armor skin would not change color in War.

  • Fixed an issue causing incorrect poses when previewing store items.

 

Thank you for your support! We’ll see you in Aeternum.

There is quite an outrage due this update in the EU. The maintenance planned for the very same time as un the US, but for us it meant downtime between  12:00 - 17:00. On top of it, the server(outside of about 25) still not up, right now its 21:00.

Last update was about an hour ago like " Please hang tight" 😢

The Faction Fest is a weekend-long event from June 27 to June 29, where the Marauders, Syndicate, and Covenant will compete to finish the most daily objectives for exclusive rewards!

      Learn more about the all-new, community-inspired 3v3 Arena map that's coming to New World: Aeternum.
      Prepare yourselves to test out your PvP builds in the upcoming new 3v3 arena that's coming to New World: Aeternum. This new map will be the largest arena yet, and will be showcased in a limited-time preview weekend from June 17 to June 23, just ahead of its full integration into the game in Season 9. 
      The name of this new map will actually be determined by the community through a voting process, so be sure to visit the official New World Aeternum discord to learn more about how you can cast your vote.
      Players are already getting excited to start testing out this new map, due to the following key characteristics it will include:
      This map is nearly 50% larger than existing 3v3 arena maps, with more elevation, cover, obstacles, and flanking paths. The map favors ranges players early on, but forces players into melee engagements quickly as they venture deeper within it. There are multiple landmarks scattered throughout the map, including ancient statues, waterfalls, and weathered ruins (which adds to different tactical call-outs you can share with your group members mid-battle). To further support your participation in testing out this new map, there will be Twitch Drops dedicated to the preview weekend (June 17 - June 23).  This reward includes the Hearty Twitch Cache, which will be awarded after watching 6 cumulative hours on Twitch.
      As you prepare to test your skills and abilities in this new map, consider checking out some of our many New World Aeternum PvP builds here to help you on the battlefield.
      We look forward to seeing you on the battlefield!

      Experience New World like never before - reach level 65 in just 2 hours, experiment with powerful artifacts, and dive into a fresh, competitive seasonal world content.
      When New World initially launched in September 2021, it was a massive success, quickly climbing to over 900,00 concurrent players on Steam and becoming one of the most popular MMOs out there. Players from around the world were drawn in by the beautiful world of Aeternum, the action-based combat, the satisfying gathering and crafting system, and of course, the large-scale PvP. 
      However, those numbers quickly fell due to a handful of reasons, including in-game bugs and item duping, server stability issues, long queue times, imbalanced economy, and a few other reasons that left a bad taste in many players' mouths.
      Since then, the team behind New World: Aeternum have made some major improvements, introducing some new weapons, a higher max gear score (725), new expeditions, new events, new raids, and much, much, more, making the game enjoyable for many of those that give it another chance.
      If you've been away from New World for a while, or are curious about giving it another shot, then the Hardcore seasonal world is your golden opportunity. This fast-paced setting will allow you to hit max level (65) in just two hours (video below on how), allow you to equip any and every artifact you'd like to test it out, and allow you to try out some of the latest and greatest additions added to the game since its initial launch, including the new 10-man Hive of Gorgons raid and the 20-man Sandwurm raid.
      Long story short, if you've ever thought "Maybe I should try New World again", this is your sign. The hardcore seasonal world is the perfect opportunity to take a closer look at what's changed since the initial launch of the game, without having to spend endless hours getting to the endgame content. 
      Please note: This seasonal world is a temporary world and will be deleted on July 8, 2025. However, it allows you to truly get a taste of what's new in the game, without requiring the massive grind.
      If you enjoy what you see when you check it out, then you can start the official grind and get back to the Aeternum you once loved!

      Discover everything you need to know about Hardcore New World, including faster leveling, unlimited artifacts, and exclusive rewards, all starting on June 3, 2025.
      It's official - New World's hardcore seasonal world will begin on June 3, 2025, and last until July 8, 2025, giving players plenty of time to max out a character and challenge some of the most difficult raids within the game for exclusive rewards. This marks the second seasonal world for New World: Aeternum, where players will be able to explore Aeternum and play the game with a major twist - this time being hardcore.
      If your character dies during this game mode, they will be forever labeled as "Fallen", limiting the number of exclusive rewards you can unlock with that specific character (more details below). Additionally, players will come across other major twists while playing in this seasonal world, including the removal of the main story quest (MSQ), and replacing it with a much shorter questline that allows you to hit max level after approximately 6 hours, as well as allowing players to use as many artifacts as possible, greatly increasing the overall power most players are used to.
      All major changes to this new seasonal world can be found below:
      No Main Questline - We’ve built a new, expedited questline to follow. This questline will give you all the experience needed for your character to reach maximum level in approximately 6 hours. It will also introduce you to the new mechanic we’re using for progressing your character on this server: Azerite Tailings. Azerite Tailings - Azerite Tailings are an item that can be dropped from multiple different locations in the world and can be used to craft new types of inventory caches for yourself. These caches will be much faster to use for gearing up your character on this server than standard loot drops. These caches can provide everything you need for your characters (such as consumables, gear, and even materials for selecting perks on artifacts.) Artifacts Unlimited - On this server, you are able to equip as many artifacts as you would like. We don’t know exactly how powerful these can become, but we want to allow you to experiment in some new ways and try some new gameplay combinations that even we haven’t seen before. War has its own unique status effect. This status effect will provide a higher potential stacking on attributes after death (as well as a damage bonus), but it also reduces your armor and absorptions while active (this is intended to help balance out some of the potential defensive power artifacts can provide). Since this is a time-limited server, territory control is not the primary focus, so we wanted to give people an opportunity to experience the mode in a different way. Honestly, we’re hoping you will all go out into the field and bonk each other over the head with foam bats and cardboard tubes for a weekend. Death Status Effects - A new status effect will be present on your character when created on this server for tracking your Unfallen or Fallen state. This is our attempt at a different kind of hardcore experience. Characters who have not died will be considered ‘Unfallen’ and characters who have died will be considered ‘Fallen.' Instead of a traditional hardcore model, where your character is simply deleted on death, this status effect will stack up, granting 25 bonus attributes per stack. However, some challenges can only be completed in an Unfallen state. Group up with others to tackle these objectives and remain Unfallen, but don’t be afraid to keep going if you do Fall, you’ll be getting stronger and stronger. Earnable Rewards - You will be able to earn new rewards for your character by completing challenges in the Season Journey on this server. These new earnable rewards are Raw Orichalcite Stone, which allows you to craft any artifact you want (out of all the artifacts you do not currently own), and Runewood Resin, which allows you to craft any T3 trophy you want. There will also be new cosmetics and titles to earn throughout this experience. These rewards will not be claimable on your seasonal character and must be claimed on one of your primary characters. Important extra note about the Hardcore server - As the focus of this server is push the limit of characters to the max, including using full sets of artifacts in endgame content such as the Gorgon raid, players will be required to have the Rise of the Angry Earth expansion to participate.
      Additional information (along with tips to help you along the way) can be found within the video below.
      We wish you luck on your future hardcore adventures throughout Aeternum!
