Amazon disables money transfer in new world. Like the developers in one current forum post report, players have apparently encountered a bug that allows gold to be duplicated as often as desired. “For this reason, we have turned off all forms of wealth transfer between players,” the developers write. This includes, among other things, sending currency, treasures and player-to-player trading.
The developers add that they want to impose a penalty on the players who caused the duplication bug in New World (buy now €39.99 ) have exploited. The thalers stolen by the bug will be removed from the inventory of the affected users. In addition, the developers reserve the right to ban the players from the game. “As soon as we’ve fixed the gold duplication bug and are ready to enable money transfer again, we’ll provide you with an update,” the developers write.
They also explain that this is a temporary exploit that can be fixed with adjustments to the economic system. Until a fix for the problem is available, the developers want to suspend trading and bartering. “A patch will be submitted as soon as possible,” said Amazon Game Studios in the New World forum. The developers want to publish another update on the current status tonight German time. We previously reported that New World has lost a number of players since launch has.
