Controversial Black Desert Online Patch Is Live

The contentious patch that allows players to list cash shop items on the marketplace in Black Desert Online has officially gone live. To prevent abuse, players can list a maximum of five cash-shop items at once:

• Pet, Outfits, Value Package and Horse Gear will be tradable via the Market Place.

  • Functional costumes will be excluded for trading (Splat Fisher’s Clothes, Treant Camouflage, Venia Riding, Desert Camouflage, Venecil Dress, Karki and Canape).

• The maximum of 5 Pearl Shop items can be registered a week per account.

  • The number of restrictions will be reset daily at 12:00am CEST on Saturday for EU, and 12:00 EDT on Saturday for NA.

Not everyone is happy about the patch while others feel there's been a bit of an exaggerated backlash. I think I can continue to enjoy myself until proven otherwise.

As part of the patch Black Desert Online has gained imperial cooking, imperial alchemy, imperial horse trading, and imperial fish trading. Players can also collect Shiny Golden Seals to trade for item, such as a Fishing Boat Cargo Container of Abundance. And tier 8 horses have been released.

Are you still playing Black Desert Online or has this patch pushed you closer to "Uninstall" button?
