When Will New World Servers be Back Up

The servers are expected to be back up after around 2 hours of downtime. Of course, if the developers encounter any issues, this can be prolonged, but it shouldn’t take too much time. So, all you can do is to be patient and wait a couple of hours until the game is back up again.

• Resolved an issue with healing hotkeys in Group Mode that caused the players assigned to each hotkey to change during combat.
• Fixed an issue with the Region Transfer button so it displays a more accurate time for when a player can transfer between regions.
• Resolved an issue where a character could get locked into an error message when attempting to log in.
• Added a speculative fix for an issue that caused players to sometimes encounter a respawn screen with an infinite timer and no respawn. We will continue to monitor the forums to see if players are still encountering this rare issue.
• Fixed an issue that allowed some players to instantly respawn and ignore the wave respawn timers during War & Invasion game modes.

• Fixed an issue where this perk hit enemies around the player twice (instead of once) on use.
• Decreased the weapon damage of the secondary burst from 125% to 100%.
• Reduced block stamina damage of the secondary burst from 150% to 70% of a player’s base stamina damage.
• Decreased the lifesteal amount based on gear score from an initial range of 20% to 50% down to a range between 15% to 35%.
