  @playnewworld Fix the servers! 5k people on SA servers, i just cant play at night.

  @playnewworld Sell it to someone who can actually fix it. Because this game was incredible at launch and it only got worse for no reason. Give it to someone who can do the job. This is such a shame to see.

  Devastated over this💔 From the player count & hype I really thought @playnewworld was back, my brain can't process this news My heart is broken for the NW team, they really did an amazing job on Nighthaven & didn't deserve this. Layoffs before the holidays are so diabolical

  @playnewworld Avoid Amazon live service/MMO games at all cost.

  @SavvvoGames @JeffBezos @playnewworld Games with a PvP core environment are always going to be niche, add to that an awful launch and it was always going to be an uphill struggle. Then comes along AI which will fix absolutely nothing but is CHEAP and there you go. Suits see money money money.

  @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.

  @playnewworld A lot of promise but the bugs, lag and hacking messed this game up.

  @playnewworld and @amazongames, I believe I speak for every #NewWorld player when I say, ADD MORE SERVERS AND FIX THE QUEUES! US West is a constant 2k queue ALL DAY. Server Queues on US East are RIDICULOUS. Longest one I was in was 8k for US East Valhalla >_>;... @YaBoiWiilly BRO

  @NWGameStatus @playnewworld 2nd night trying to play and the queue times ruined it for me. Players don’t want to wait 3 hours or longer to play. You guys have to fix this. Why spend so much time and energy developing new DLC just to let something as basic as server capacity ruin your hard work?

  @Sensiblelogic06 @S_Berry_82 @playnewworld 50k peak this month. If player numbers were a problem it would have been canceled when it was averaging 8k months over month 3 years ago. Stop defending corporate greed.

  Hey @dev_katyk @playnewworld can you fix the afk kicking in arenas? I can’t even use shooters stance without being kicked for afk. It’s way too aggressive.

  @playnewworld If you guys don't revamp this game and fix it you won't have anyone trusting Amazon games going forward every release you have had was a flop. No Mans Sky did the right thing. Learn from them or hire them to fix your games.

  @StevenJSharif @amazongames @playnewworld New World is my favorite MMO of all time. After the first major updates a lot of launch problems were fixed and it became the best MMO that kept getting better but wasn't given a second chance

  @playnewworld We spent real money on New World. Amazon released a major update just 1 month before shutting the game down. That’s not service ending that’s misleading players into spending more. This deserves refunds or compensation. #NewWorld #AmazonGame

  @TweetsvanMaan @AscendanceLM @playnewworld I never blamed the devs, executives are absolutely the issue here.

  @playnewworld Amazon realized you have to maintain a live service game and went "**** that".

  @playnewworld I still remember when they wanted to sell the game and promised ten years of service...

  @Sensiblelogic06 @S_Berry_82 @playnewworld Again. Player retention was not an issue for the game to operate, as Amazon was fine operating the game with an average of 8-10k for 3-4 years. It's not like they were expected to have 1 MILLION players for 5 years.

  @mike_stang @playnewworld "We wanted to give you a chance to play this new weapon class despite its unfinished state, so some bugs and issues are to be expected." I know, reading comprehension is hard.

  @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)

  @JexonHP @playnewworld It’s not about being cheap. It’s about transparency and consumer fairness. The devs clearly knew content development was winding down, that S10 was likely their last gasp, yet continued selling store items and DLC with no disclosure that the game was entering maintenance mode. That’s not equivalent to buying a movie ticket — it’s paying into a live service under the impression it’s ongoing. The ethics change dramatically when the service is knowingly winding down. Your argument hinges on false equivalence — comparing a complete, self-contained entertainment product (i.e., a movie or single-player game) with an ongoing live-service ecosystem that’s ending. A better analogy would be purchasing season tickets for your favorite sports team only to find out midway through the season that the team is dissolving the following season and during that next season the team won’t be playing any games — yet you can continue showing up to the stadium to purchase merch and food from the concession stands. There’s no perfect analogy for this sort of situation which is why GaaS are incredibly exploitative.

  @LSXYZ9 @playnewworld Its secretly been the best MMO out there. It hit 1M concurrents on launch but was a mess with way too many problems and devs being too slow to fix things so everyone quit and never talked about it again. Recent upates made the game PEAK

  @NWGameStatus No fix for Jester not coming down after a reset/wipe. And you have to leave the raid and restart the instance, and you have to kill the beginning adds again. I'm not sure if you all know, but the fix you guys did was not working at all. Needs to be fixed! @playnewworld

  @RenewedAurora @playnewworld It's not about the money, it's about sending a message. Either they give the community the ability to host their own servers or they give their money back, just accepting that companies can take **** off you whenever they run into financial trouble is insane.
