    @playnewworld could you add a grace period for users that crash after waiting an hour in the queue. Even if it is just for 5 minutes.

    @playnewworld Seems to be the new trend now with "online service only" games. Remember that all of the money you spend on these games has a 100% guarantee that when the game inevitably DOES SHUT DOWN... you not only lose your time but ALL of the money you invested in the game. 🤑

    @ShultsyPlays @playnewworld That's not honest, it's jaded. The engine the devs were forced the use was a mess of spaghetti code (which is what caused a significant number of the bugs and issues) and they had Amazon execs stifling every creative choice they wanted to make in the name of maximising profit. Many, many things were mishandled throughout this game's life, and there is a whole lot of things that could and should've been better, but I'll die on the hill that the core dev team - the creatives, vfx artists, etc and the developers, system/mechanics/combat designers etc, were not the issue.

    @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.

    @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.

    @playnewworld Fix ur first encounter plz. I shouldn’t have to restart the raid every single time bc it bugs out

    @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)

    @vobic13 @playnewworld Clearly it was already in the works, and almost finished anyway. What's your problem with the devs wanting to honor the customers one last time, despite being laid off? Stop with the clown logic.

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

    @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

  • iSpencerEdwards
    Spencer (@iSpencerEdwards) reported

    @playnewworld I think the subscription model is the way forward for MMOs. The way this game was monetized was very fair to the consumer, but not sustainable in the eyes of money hungry amazon. Creating and maintaining a live service MMO is a money pit and new world wasn’t bring in the $$$.

  • _Anluan_
    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”

    @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

  • im_just_kentaro
    imjustkentaro (@im_just_kentaro) reported

    Still at a loss for words over what #amazon did to #playnewworld. I thought maybe they would have shut it down years ago but to release this huge new update and make a solid effort to fix a lot of the issues with the game only to rugpull everyone is baffling.

    @NWGameStatus @playnewworld Fix the ******* queue every time at 5 it’s goes past 1,000 & sit and wait for 45 min to get in to having your game crash when I fast travel & sit in queue again. Insane how you don’t realize it . Embarrassing!

    @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

    @playnewworld I’m getting sick of this bullshit now… fix the audio bug where it skips dialogue when confirming next step… it’s an old as **** bug too, how is this not fixed. Utter ******* bullshit.

  • doctordestix
    Doctor Destix (@doctordestix) reported

    @SometimesClutch @ShultsyPlays @playnewworld Not correct. Guild Wars 2 doesn’t have a sub and is still running. There are other games that function this way as well. The problem is that they botched the launch and damaged their image. Which I may add is the most important problem.

    @NWGameStatus @playnewworld Please fix logging in queues,i like everyone else would like to play the game we bought without having to sit in que for a hour, then praying ot doesnt crash pitting us to the back of the que again

    @MMORPGcom @playnewworld There were many talented people, but still: The game engine was rubbish Overall game was a buggy mess that they couldn't fix The game had no vision of tge playing loop Decisions and changes lacked consistency and were constantly contradicting previous changes It was inevitable

  • ForaDiContexto

    @playnewworld The game is unplayable right now. I've been playing since the new content was released, and in about two hours today I've crashed eight times without making any changes to my computer or game settings. FIX YOUR GAME!

    @playnewworld Another live service bites the dust

  • blairewismic
    Wismic (@blairewismic) reported

    @playnewworld That's crazy. Especially considering there's quite literally over 2x the active, daily, and peak player-count for this game compared to ESO by Zenimax, without Amazon's infinite money glitch in the back pocket. Major misplay by Amazon.

    @playnewworld Ok set game to f2p for rest of service

  • fideosConTuc0__
    cogolloQuemado (@fideosConTuc0__) reported

    @playnewworld Will you release the base code and server configs so the community can host custom and private servers? It would be at least the best move for players who stuck around and kept buying in-game currency even when the game was empty and broken.

  • Y0urOn1yFreND
    Aidan (@Y0urOn1yFreND) reported

    @S_Berry_82 @playnewworld All the content is great! It didnt launch half baked. The issue is that the content did not keep people playing after they finished it. Thats obviously very bad for an MMO

  • MithraicDharma
    Mithraic_Path_of_Dharma (@MithraicDharma) reported

    @playnewworld Honestly you had a great game, could have kept it going if you adjusted the monetization model. Live service games always have me worried about bug companies just walking away.
