    @hammerify @LSXYZ9 @playnewworld All of this is so untrue haha. It’s an MMO, and comparatively, the grind was not bad at all. And if you were in an opposing faction territory…. Just go to one of your own if it’s that bad. I never had an issue of getting killed on repeat.

    @playnewworld For us aussies Under Australian Consumer Law (ACL), digital games must be of acceptable quality, fit for purpose, and match their description/promises (e.g., ongoing live-service MMO).If a shutdown makes it unfit/unplayable contrary to what was promised, it's a potential major failure → entitling refund/replacement (overrides "no refund" policies).

    @towelthetank @summit1g @playnewworld Dude. If people love the game. They need to spend money on it. Plain and simple. This is a live service product with a cash shop. Be real.

    @playnewworld The game had its moments. But the persistent failure to acknowledge the game's major systemic issues and the reluctance to fix them killed it. The constant creation and merging of servers instead of system overhauls was just one of the things that turned me off.

    @JeffBezos @playnewworld Then why are you shutting down such an amazing game? It has finally become what it was always meant to be. All of the issues have been fixed. The gameplay and combat are second to none. Then we get rug pulled. “Not financially feasible” is such a cop out.

    @playnewworld When will you solve the queue problem on all servers, including SA?

    @SavvvoGames @JeffBezos @playnewworld Problem is Bezos is not even there anymore - he has been slowly selling off his stock. Some DEV company just needs to see if they can buy New World. I figured this was coming once they decided to rebrand Prime Gaming and I am afraid more changes will be coming, soon.

    @playnewworld The massive issue with the game right now is NOT the content for once. FOR ONCE there is plenty of new repatable content WITHOUT daily/weekly cooldowns. However people are tying to gear right now, instead of choosing to participate in the new raid, or catacombs, or even gorgon. Instead they are AFK,AoE farming drops around the map. This has impacted me personally, because it's more difficult to even organize a gorgon (Valhalla), or find a 3rd for Catacombs. Also I believe many playes congregating in several places around the map is why my character animations are breaking when I'm playing. Solution: Create crafting resources for lockable perks on gear. I think it would be too strong to allow 2 locked perks, instead maybe 1. Reintroduce timeless shards, and golden/prismatic scarab. NOBODY is going to spend 9,000 gold on an armor matrix for a completely RNG roll. Instead they will just AFK. #MakeCraftingGreatAgain If people can reasonably roll gear, people won't feel the need to stand around for drops because the cost and RNG is too high for crafting. Also many people have the full armor ingredients sets and trophies for crafting and they aren't needed to roll 730? Why? Those pieces should be desirable and required for high end crafting. (Oppinon) THERE IS SO MUCH good and new content in the game for gearing and few are doing it. It makes me sad. Please consider what I have said. I have played your game from peak popularity to 6k pop. I have seen the good, the bad, the ugly, the dumb, experienced every version of the game and you are so close to new world being better than its ever been. Let us roll gear. Nerf world drops a bit. (Not always legendary would probably be enough)

    Amazon is going to pay a long term price for shutting down New World @playnewworld - Not just one game, its a long term broken promise. You take money as people build up their accounts, then abandon them. Forget @playtlgame - People will quit/avoid that too. Forget future games.

    @playnewworld im gonna quit your game again. you know why? because it's been days and you are not addressing the queue issue.. same **** all over again. bye

    lolJayMo2 (@lolJayMo2) reported

    @LSXYZ9 @playnewworld I’d say the problem was that SO MANY people saw it during release. It was dull on release and nobody came back. I begged my friends but they absolutely refused.

    @andrewshark91 @playnewworld You obviously misunderstood the meaning of live service. It's a model to service money out of you while the game's alive (usually for the first 2 weeks)

    @towelthetank @playnewworld Despite issues at first, I stuck with it. And, I must say that I certainly got my money's worth, what with the 770+ hours I've invested into the game. It's my cozy game. I enjoy leveling my gathering & crafting skills. And it's a shame that it'll sunset next year.

    @NWGameStatus @playnewworld I don’t know what you broke but please fix it, haven’t had any issues with lagging in months and since this last ‘maintenance’ I’m literally teleporting and lagging every second! The game is literally unplayable and no it’s not my connection I have wired gigabit internet 🤦🏻

    @DeathMetalV @towelthetank @playnewworld That truth,but what makes ppl really feeling sad about the announcement in last 3season they really fixed things and they added alot of cool things for both pve&pvp but their issues were always the first impression they gave to ppl they never will manage get back the player base

    @BrynnBumfuzzle @playnewworld I’ve been playing this game for ages, almost 7k hrs During Season 10, I was a bit late exploring the world because of queue issues. Didn’t even get to try all the content yet, and then out of nowhere AGS goes, “Surprise! This is the final season!” 😑

    @playnewworld I want a full refund.. how dare you steal out money and shut the servers down next year. This has to be illegal on so many levels.

    @YaBoiWiilly @playnewworld We no lifed the game for weeks until it became clear they couldn't fix the unplayable lag in endgame. Never made sense to me that the World PvP was so good but then it's all decided in an INSTANCED zone that didn't work.

    @SavvvoGames @JeffBezos @playnewworld This game made zero money in 5 years because of its development team. The game wasn't the issues, the leadership choices were.

  • culturecomplain
    Yhanabow (@culturecomplain) reported

    @LSXYZ9 @playnewworld Was also one of if not the most buggy game ever released sadly. Absolutely riddled with game breaking issues for a long long long time. Dead on arrival. One of the rare instances where the lay offs are fair given their performance.

    @GrumpyPawsTV @zzzSkadi @playnewworld The first year wasn’t **** either, the game was buggy and had a lot of issues but they were pumping out solid content updates while fixing everything at a solid pace, main one being the brimstone patch
