New World players got understandably nervous when Amazon Games announced that it had to wrestle with yet another trading exploit, which prompted a temporary shutdown of trading across the entire game that was later lifted except for a specific server, where the exploit in question was localized.
The initial announcement caused a lot of player eyerolling and leaped-to conclusions, which further prompted Amazon to present some facts to push back against what it characterized as “wild misunderstandings, false information, and rumormongering,” including presumptions of how long a fix would come, the nature of the solution itself, and that nobody would face bans.
Of course, we do point out that such a reaction is perhaps understandable, as New World has had multiple examples of exploits being handled poorly. This time around, however, things are hopefully being managed better.
