The New World devs are rolling out a patch - Update 1.0.5, if you want to be fancy - that looks to combat various issues that have been cropping up in-game of late. Alongside a hearty round of bug fixes and gameplay changes to improve combat and Outpost Rush, the patch also introduces some updates aimed at addressing coin selling and duplication-related exploits.
First up are the coin selling-focussed changes. "We know many of you have seen the pesky chat messages from players spamming messages, and we’re continuing to investigate solutions to this issue," the MMORPG's devs explain in the patch notes. "We discovered that many coin sellers were creating new characters and transferring money to other accounts." To address this, the devs are rolling out several changes, which include new restrictions on player-to-player trading and currency transfers for characters less than 72 hours old and below level ten. These restrictions lift once characters hit the new thresholds.
Additionally, the devs have shifted the value of some of the MMO's early-game quest rewards over to ones that come later in the main story questline. The total amount of coin earned will be the same, mind - it's "just delivered in quests slightly later". Alongside these updates, the team also says it's rolled out bans and suspensions to "many of the reported accounts", and adds that it'll continue to monitor the impact these various changes have on the game's bots and health, with more adjustments to follow if needed.
