The second patch is finally here for New World, Amazon Games’ popular new MMO title. Changes include a variety of bug fixes across multiple aspects of the game and some AI and Store fixes. Additionally, some small changes were made to Faction Missions and influence. There is not much to talk about in regards to actual gameplay changes. Below we have the full New World October 13 patch notes for update 1.0.2.

One notable change fixes an issue that would cause players to stutter after becoming encumbered. It was a welcome issue since it allowed players to move at full speed for a brief time. Also, they fixed a case where the tier 3 fishing treasure chest was not functioning correctly, so it will now fight back after being hooked. Aside from that, random player teleporting should occur less frequently, and players who get penalized by the Easy Anti-Cheat system should now see more information regarding their actions.

New World October 13 Patch Notes (Update 1.0.2)

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:

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