-
sixty7gt500 (@Rupinski) reported@playnewworld Minor Error found: Peacocks can't give eggs. Consider changing the birds name to Peafowl
-
akito (@akitoshaoku) reported@towelthetank @lDkayyl @playnewworld The "problem" is that you and others are going ham on "This shouldn't have happened, the game doesn't deserve this" but then you do nothing to help it beyond the petition equivalent of "I'm rooting for you!" Very disingenuous
-
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!
-
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.
-
Spam (@Spamsum) reported@LSXYZ9 @playnewworld combat and social elements were great (but lots of drama) but honestly it was clear that the devs didn't play their own game. many systems didnt work, things would break patch to patch and then be left broken for months at a time. VERY frustrating for the playerbase
-
Unknown (@ImaBeAfk) reported@playnewworld gota love the random crashes … yall think you would idk fix that problem… and it’s not just me 50 people in my company and we all will get random game freezes and crashes
-
David Fedor (@DavidFedor6) reported@playnewworld So basically they are shutting the servers down at the end of 2026 but still allowing people to make in game purchases of their "premium" currency. Unreal.
-
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.
-
Leon Kennedy (@CutterNW) reported@StevenJSharif @amazongames @playnewworld I hope your game helps fill the void this left in me. Fingers crossed for a smooth release ill be waiting to login when it's ready.

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.

JJ Gloom (@kinoandnectar) reported@Verliswolf @playnewworld **** was a broken mess from the start
-
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.
-
Azrial (@AzrialNeph) reported@MangoxLocoAU @playnewworld It's a close range build but can be an issue against bow warlords haha.
-
Denzel (@DenzelTwitch) reported@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.
-
Lemmonnnn (@Lemmonnnn13) reported@playnewworld Right after the release of nighthaven? I mean, what ******** are we to do with gold cursed coconuts? This is actually bullshit because I’ve put thousands of hours into this broken *** game and I’ve stayed by AGS’s side since release, only to be betrayed like, this. Wtf man
-
Kib (@KiburenKibu) reported@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.
-
Panciako (@AntyPanciak) reported@playnewworld Ok set game to f2p for rest of service
-
Jas (@jasnightmare1) reported@playnewworld When will you solve the queue problem on all servers, including SA?
-
Noblekrister (@noble168no2) reported@NWGameStatus @playnewworld Fix the issue that’s causing me to crash every time I fast travel!!
-
Stephen Fuller (@_Anluan_) reported@playnewworld Pathetic. Even EQ still has live servers that dedicated players are able to still play on. We now know we can never trust any future products of Amazon Games or their cloud gaming service “Luna”
-
Liliums (ᛚᛁᛚᛁᚢᛗᛊ) (@Elsdragon01) reported@playnewworld the game should remain online. without updates, patchs, fixes anything. maybe gm service's but from volunteers. under staff management. this is why the "stop killing games" started. new world IS a good game. just no one listened to feed back and did anything. (so it felt.)
-
Propi (@Propii69) reported@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
-
Rickey Williams (@Sensiblelogic06) reported@tcubd @S_Berry_82 @playnewworld They were not fine, you are saying they are dine and I am confused why you are saying that, they were not happy with 8 to 10k players the fact you are saying that is the issue with your argument, mmorpgs will not do well with that low of a base especially new ones
-
𝙎𝙄𝙀𝙂𝙀 (@MorriSiege) reported from Thornton, England@playnewworld I can handle the fact that there are queues on the server and I think it's great the game is popular again, but what I can't deal with is queuing from 6k+ (3+hrs) down to 1st position, only to be sent to the back of the queue!! Please fix this ****!!!!
-
Kqbleb (@kqbleb) reported@blessedpleasant @playnewworld amazon aint doing live service mmos again. The mmo genre is a money pit unless you monetize like koreans
-
Genadine (@Genadine1) reported@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.
-
Hoff (@hoffapproved) reported@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.
-
Matheus “Cursed” Almeida (@TheusAlmeidaa) reported@playnewworld Fix the servers! 5k people on SA servers, i just cant play at night.
