Farming materials can be an exceptionally tedious process in MMOs which is why someNew Worldplayers have found some unethical methods of getting around this mechanic. This has, however, left a bad taste in the mouths of players who farm materials via traditional means inNew World.
ManyNew Worldplayers have noticed an influx of high-level bots which is rather concerning as bots can quite easily be spotted and reported by real players. This also means that many player reports are not being acted on in a timeous manner. Bots are easily spotted as they can easily be spotted fishing in empty lakes and running between ore deposits that are devoid of any materials. Some players have even reported seeing bots camping the same material hotspots for weeks. These bots have therefore severely impacted the in-game economy.

Twitch icon Shroud pointed out thatNew Worldserver mergerscould also affect the in-game economy quite significantly. He stated that combining a smaller server with a medium server would cause issues considering that the smaller server would have greater access to resources, whereas the medium server would have more competition. Shroud’s solution to the economic discrepancy would be to only allow small servers to merge with other small servers and vice versa as players would then have comparable access to loot and resources.
Yet another factor influencing the in-game economy is that a patch released a week ago ended upgifting randomNew Worldplayers around 300 000 gold. The gold was supposed to be given to players who ended up losing items from the Trade Post but, unfortunately, ended up being sent out randomly.
Amazon has seemingly been having somewhat of a tough time polishing the game as the company recently also had todramatically reduce housing tax inNew Worldafter numerous coin duping bugs were found and the Trade Post had to be disabled. This tax reduction is still in effect, however, the developer has promised it will be patched effectively in the December update to the game.
Ultimately, it seems as though theInto the Void November updatefor the game did more harm than good. Alongside the previously mentioned issues, players have also noticed loot gained from defeating enemies has also been heavily nerfed making the game more of a grind than it already is.New Worldis an exceptionally promising MMO that players will, hopefully, be able to enjoy for years to come once Amazon has ironed out the lingering issues the game has.
