Server switching was introduced for New world last month, allowing players to launch their character to a new world. It was implemented as a way to reduce queue times in the popular MMORPG, but didn’t quite work as planned – it caused Gold scam glitchand some players were blocked from transferring completely. Amazon Games says it’s currently working to resolve these bottlenecks and is planning a second server migration before the end of the year, so everyone has a chance to take the world by storm.
In an updated post on the forums of the New World, Amazon says its top priority is “addressing critical circumstances that have blocked players from using their free transfer tokens.” Some players have been blocked due to trading “ghost contracts”, which appear to be quests stuck in limbo that keep you from getting to the world you started.
They say these “ghost contracts” should be sorted now, but there is an ongoing issue with “pending contracts” that are also preventing the transfer. They are currently working on fixing those bugs.
Amazon said: “The first server migration provided a lot of lessons for us to learn from and we apologize that there was a cost to some of you joining friends on a server of your choice. . “Once the transfer has been unblocked and our investigation of these cases complete, we are looking to provide a second round of server transfers. The expected time is before the end of the year. We’ll update you if that changes.”
It is unclear whether this second round of remittances will again be free for everyone or the remittance tokens will only be made available to those who have not had the opportunity. The company has previously said it plans to sell transferable tokens in the future.
The developers say they are also “evaluating interest” in transferring funds between regions. Initially, Amazon said players would be able to hop across regions (e.g., jump from the EU Central server to the US East), but they quickly come back. From the sound of things, before they properly commit to the feature, they want to know how many people will actually use it. If you want to show your interest, come to Posts on this forum.
Finally in New World server news, server consolidation is “on the horizon”. Amazon says it’s been testing the technology since beta, which will bundle two servers together, and they’re almost ready to use it in a live game. When they picked a few candidates, they said they would thoroughly test them to make sure they were compatible (considering population, faction representation, and more). They don’t say exactly when the merge will start, but here are the details of how it works:
“Players on worlds determined to merge will be notified in advance of the plan. Players with characters in fusion candidate worlds will not lose their progress (including gold, items). , faction, and company); however, territories will belong to companies in the partner world. For example, if World X is confirmed as a merge candidate and World Y is determined to be. partners:
- Players on World Y are unaffected, except for the world stream. World Y’s territorial ownership persisted after the merger. Companies were compensated 50K Coins, 3.3 times the cost of war, due to loss of territory ownership due to world consolidation.
- Characters from World X are moved to World Y – characters, companies, houses, gold, and possessions remain intact, but ownership of the territory will not exist in the new world. .
“At this time we do not offer transfers for players after a world has been merged. This position is subject to change as we learn more.”
The full Amazon forum post is well worth a read if you’re into the game. It also talks about plans to add new skins, details the game’s luck system, provides an update on issues with declaring war, and loads more.
