Greetings Adventurers,
We will be holding downtime 2022-04-13T06:00:00Z in your local timezone for the Weekly Update. Downtime is slated to last approximately 2.5 hours (~150 minutes).
Please find the release notes here: New World Update 1.4.2 - News | New World
Thank you for your patience and understanding!
Okay nothing happens on the worlds that worlds are getting merged into. It’ll just be like getting a bunch of new players.
Looking into this!
So from my understanding, wars and invasions will not initiate on worlds that will be merged. I don’t quite remember the answer for worlds that have worlds being merged into it but I will ask and circle back to you!
All different issues we’re aware of and actively working on! That’s the funny thing about the term “desync”.
It’s kind of like having allergies. The symptoms and causes are different for everyone, but we all just say “I have allergies!” When one tree is no longer blooming, a flower might still be causing someone else allergies!
Just for clarification, are you wondering about the worlds that will merged into others or the worlds that other worlds are being merged into?
(I hope that doesn’t read as confusing as it sounds in my head)
Hello! There is a 72 hour period after purchasing the game before these restrictions lift. You should be able to chat in general and access the trading post soon!
I checked in with the team and everything seems normal here! The special shots are intended to have damage falloff since they’re unaffected by Ballistic Advantage!
Greetings Adventurers,
In this update, our focus is quality of life improvements. We’d love to get your thoughts and evaluate technical stability both by helping us test out war!
On 2022-04-14T00:00:00Z to 2022-04-14T01:00:00Z, members of the Development Team will be throwing Windsward into conflict in preparation for war! Come join us or defend against us!
Interested but not completely sold? Participants in this war will receive a special title in the Live game when this update appears in the Live client.
See you there!
New Update:
These worlds will be merged on 2022-04-15T17:00:00Z.
Thank you!
I’m waiting for them too! I’ll update you all once I hear.
Hey all, please remember to be respectful of each other while on the New World forums. However, you shouldn’t need to pay other players in order to access content.
I believe in a previous Developer Video, the team discusses tuning orbs and that this mechanism may change in the future.
I feel like the comments in this thread have run their course so I’m going to close this thread. Thank you for your understanding.
I’m aware, I’m waiting to hear back on the status of that.
Nope but hopefully I will have an answer on that soon. The video won’t be coming out today.
Thanks for the feedback! I’ll pass it on to the team but I can’t guarantee that any changes will be made.
Keep an eye out for it 
it’s a work in progress!
New Update:
The time we are now aiming for is 2022-04-15T07:00:00Z.
Thank you for understanding!
Update:
Shortly after this announcement went live, the team found a config that they will need to adjust, adding a slight delay to the mergers.
We will share more exact timing when we are able!
