M0l0k0 (@M0l0k0v3ll0c3t) reported@Vokun_ @zomeisterr @playnewworld Almost every major service game launched in a poor state and is now in the top 25 on Steam. Destiny, Warframe, Rainbow Six Siege, CSGO, Sea of Thieves, No Man's Sky, Path of Exile, the list goes on and on and on.

NRT (@OfficialMr_NRT) reported@dev_katyk @playnewworld There appears to be an issue with Easy Anti-Cheat issuing permanent bans without a clear reason. Multiple players have been affected, often receiving a ban message on the main menu after a long period of inactivity. Please Help!

ProimagensJR 💿 (@ProimagensJ) reported@playnewworld It's so sad to see news like this. My heart is completely broken now.

Panciako (@AntyPanciak) reported@playnewworld Ok set game to f2p for rest of service
-
Anemyre (@COGs_Anemyre) reported@bswagz88 @playnewworld This game still had a healthy player base. The issue comes down to Amazon owning it. They have no idea what they're doing in the gaming space and they're soulless, only looking at cost/benefit. Now that tech is cutting fat, it was inevitable the floundering game division would be cut

Vanir Entertainment🎮📽️🎧🏒⚔️🛡️ (@Volsunga1985) reported@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.

popojo07 🎖️ MILITARY 🎖️ (@JohnPopovich22) reported@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.

EXTRA ULTRA MAGA (@ATHEoST) reported@NWGameStatus @playnewworld Please fix the gates not opening in the catacombs. : )

bob (@Crossboneee) reported@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 🤦🏻

5kY1iN3 (@Skyline451) reported@icyveins There are major issues that need to be addressed from what I played in beta for @ChronoOdyssey to even come close to what @playnewworld has accomplished
-
Hom Tuese (@TueseH) reported@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)
-
RespawnX (@XRespawn1) reported@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).

Brandon 🦅⭕️ (@bswagz88) reported@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.

Andrewshark (@andrewshark91) reported@playnewworld What’s the point of live service games if they just keep shutting down..

Matheus “Cursed” Almeida (@TheusAlmeidaa) reported@playnewworld Fix the servers! 5k people on SA servers, i just cant play at night.
-
Jackred90☕ (@jackred90) reportedI am gutted, deeply sad and in a state of grief. It feels like after 1.7k hours like i've lost a friend. i met amazing people, forged friendships and had many laughter. I assume a live service game does not work anymore, Much like most MMOs. @playnewworld
-
Fellow Platypus (@Fellow_Platypus) reported@playnewworld Guys c’mon. The dialogue skipping still hasn’t been fixed. What ******** guys. Please fix this ****, I can’t listen to a conversation without skipping dialogue when I press the next button.
-
Jas (@jasnightmare1) reported@playnewworld When will you solve the queue problem on all servers, including SA?
-
Seebs (@seebsuu) reported@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.
-
Roger Barreto (@rogerbarretto) reported@playnewworld Saddened. After many MMOs, this one really clicked and was very balanced. But 5k DAU won't cover the microtransactions model. Pity it can't sustain; I'd sub for stability. At least the COGS should suffice to keep the service online with some margin.

Verlis (@Verliswolf) reported@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
-
Shultsy 👾 (@ShultsyPlays) reported@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.
-
Sawtoothgrin (@Sawtoothgr1n) reported@playnewworld Well this will fix the queue problems lol
-
Tommy (@Iasuu_) reported@playnewworld Yall gotta increase server cap... a lot of people cant remote login from work. US West has 1 server...
-
Tebow (@MinEffortLive) reported@playnewworld >500 Twitch employees laid off >Amazon's first game has support ended Are they ready to admit they're in trouble yet?
-
YomamaCookGoodFood (@GoodYomama) reported@g0urra @npcsolananews @playnewworld Ive tried 3 times, only have 7 hours, i understand the 2 hour refund thing for steam but I had ever intention on playing the game more in till they announced the sudden halt in the game development and shutting the servers down in 2026

Frankie (@smartassfrank) reported@playnewworld Sad we won’t have the drop of 500 Umbral after the fix. Quickly joining Outpost Rush for next 2 days. ;)
