We thank you for helping us improve New World and for keeping this thread solely on the bugs and exploits you are experiencing.

Just to confirm because there is a

Romeo and Juliet Mechanic that requires them to go down together

that you’re referring to a bug beyond that?

Thanks! I figured that was the case since it was a mutation, but wanted to check just to make sure! I’ll let you know if we need video, but always feel free to post it on YouTube unlisted and send a link over!

This was fixed, so video is very much appreciated. Poor Anpu.

To avoid constant “Got it!” spam on these megathreads, I your posts to let you know it’s either a known issue or we’re now working on it. Maybe I’ll add that information to the first post moving forward for clarity.
