Amazon Games has launched the New World patch notes for 1.0.1, the first update to New World since the game launched over a week ago. The New World 1.0.1 patch notes are addressing some of the biggest bugs that players are experiencing, along with other technical and server-side issues. While the New World patch gets implemented, players will find that the New World server maintenance is underway, taking down the servers to get everything ready for the New World patch notes, along with the groundwork for the foretold New World server transfers.

New World Sever Tranfers

The basis of the New World patch notes mentions that the server transfers are almost here. Last week, Amazon Games revealed that New World character transfers will be a thing, with them going sometime this week.

Once when the New World maintenance has gone offline, you can expect to see aspects of the New World server transfers on the in-game store. It more than likely means that you can server transfer through the in-game shop, likely setting the groundwork for it to become a paid service sometime in the near future and a free service for server launch issues.

New World server maintenance

The New World maintenance is in effect worldwide. At the time of writing, every server is currently offline and will come back online after four hours. The New World maintenance began at 11:00 BST and will last for four hours, ending at 15:00 BST. If you’re wondering how long will New World servers be down in your time zone, you can find the answers converted here.

  • BST: 11:00 -15:00
  • CEST: 12:00 -16:00
  • ET 07:00 -11:00
  • PT 04;00 – 08:00
  • AEST: 20:00 – 00:00

Once the New World server downtime is over, you will find that New World patch 1.0.1 is live.

New World Patch Notes 1.0.1

War

Changed turret projectiles in War from physical projectiles to use hitscan detection. This should help performance in War, with fewer objects being spawned in the world.

AFK prevention

In an effort to ensure players can’t stay AFK, especially in higher population servers, we’ve made the following adjustments to the AFK prevention system.

  • Added additional AFK prevention to ensure players cannot fool the existing system with simulated mouse movement.
  • Shortened the AFK warning message from 20mins to 15mins.
  • Shortened the AFK disconnect from 25mins to 20mins.

World queue

We added a confirmation screen when a player attempts to leave the queue for a world, asking the player to confirm if they’re intending to leave the queue. This should help ensure nobody accidentally leaves the queue and misses out on their spot in line.

Bug fixes:

  • Fixed a rare issue causing the interact key to not properly function on various objects in the world.
  • Fixed an issue causing the barrel to not appear in “Pirate Stance” emote.
