| Amazon disables all wealth transfers in New World to curb gold duplication glitch Posted: 02 Nov 2021 04:00 PM PDT  New World players discovered a glitch that allowed them to duplicate gold. At least one way to accomplish it was having a player starting a trade with another, with zero gold, using a lag switch. After the sender confirmed their side of the trade, the receiver would enable the lag switch followed by them accepting the trade. The trade would then be canceled and a reconnection would occur. This often resulted in gold being duplicated, letting some players rack up coin that they hadn’t earned, much to the ire of players who want the economy and wealth transfers in New World to remain balanced and fair. Amazon has already swiftly responded to this by disabling all wealth transfers until the glitch has been removed from New World. At the time of this writing, all players are unable to send currency, use the guild treasury, utilize trading posts, or initiate player-to-player trades. What’s more, anyone that has utilized the above glitch will be “actioned against” ... |
| New World has lost over half its player base in just over a month Posted: 02 Nov 2021 03:15 PM PDT  At the end of September, Amazon unleashed a new MMORPG for PC owners to play. Titled New World, it was immensely successful at launch, hitting peaks of over 900,000 concurrent players. However, just one month later and the player count for New World has fallen considerably. According to Steamcharts, it is averaging 340,000 concurrent players and hitting lows of around 130,000. It is worth understanding that a decreasing playerbase is completely normal for any new game. There are simply a lot of players who try out something when it launches and decide that it isn’t to their taste. Despite this, the rapid rate at which New World‘s playerbase is leaving is a concern. Why is everyone leaving? There are several reasons that players are leaving. However, many feel that above all the state of the game at release is the most difficult issue to overlook. Even if it’s not the sole reason, it seems likely that the various bugs and exploits have played a role in the pl... |
| Blizzard co-leader, Jen Oneal, is leaving the company Posted: 02 Nov 2021 03:03 PM PDT  Following the news of Overwatch 2 and Diablo IV getting delayed, Blizzard Co-Leader Jen Oneal has announced she’s leaving the company. Oneal stepped into the role, alongside Mike Ybarra, only three months ago when former Blizzard President J. Allen Brack departed.

Oneal revealed the news in a message posted to the Blizzard website. In the announcement, she writes that she’s “been thinking about the potential of what I can do as an individual to create the most meaningful change.” Oneal has worked in the games industry for two decades.

During the year, Activision Blizzard has been surrounded by controversy. However, Oneal maintains she isn’t l... |
| Kingdom Two Crowns: Norse Lands DLC gets release date for November Posted: 02 Nov 2021 02:45 PM PDT  Kingdom Two Crowns launched to acclaim back in December of 2018. Has it really been three whole years? Despite this large chunk of time, Kingdom Two Crowns is still getting DLC in the form of Norse Lands, which has a release date set for this month. Players who have been eagerly waiting for more content these last few years will finally be able to jump back into the game. Although Norse Lands is the first paid DLC, there have been free updates to the game that extended its base content. There are just a couple of short weeks to go until everyone will be able to install and fight off the enemy in new locations. The Norse Lands DLC for Kingdom Two Crowns is being released on November 16, meaning that this announcement comes exactly two weeks prior to launch. As you’ve likely surmised, Norse Lands is an entirely new campaign featuring an all-new setting and fresh challenges. Making good use of the premise, the DLC will allow players to use abilities from the Norse gods themselves... |

According to the company, both Overwatch 2 and Diablo IV have been delayed to a “later launch.” There have been rumors that Overwatch 2 would in fact get further pushed, but today marks the company’s official confirmation on the move.
