-
Panciako (@AntyPanciak) reported@playnewworld Ok set game to f2p for rest of service
-
Aivovna (@aivovna) reported@playnewworld Game was fun at launch (like most mmos), but a copypasted PvP game quickly flipped into a more PvE focused experience ended poorly Last time I logged in, the end game was: Lag from chest to chest in the desert and run the same 3 mythic+ lite dungeons over and over again Also p2w

Shultsy 👾 (@ShultsyPlays) reported@BagginsTV @playnewworld What profit? The game made zero money in 5 years? I'd pull the plug too. This was the same dev team the entire life cycle. Same leadership except homeboy left. They had 5 years of free reign from Amazon and failed. That's a development problem that led to a corporate problem.

Noah🗝️ (@VexxPK) reported@rozilol @playnewworld Now is broken right now
-
Ernest (@Ern3stVickers) reported@playnewworld Can u fix the unleashed event, Turkulon is still strutting around like we don't have a freezer full of him.
-
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.
-
Koen Hendriks (@koen_dev) reported@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.
-
KK (@KammyBuckets) reported@NWGameStatus @playnewworld Can you guys please fix the servers please 1000+ people in a queue
-
Rio (@mseba2004) reported@amazongames @playnewworld this raffelbones bug closing extraction in catacombs is infuriating ******* fix it you actually have a good game mode
-
Ringed Paired Knight Greatsword (@UnderOfAll) reported@playnewworld That part of steam that we buy a license for the game Works on here more then It shouldnt. I paid for a game that i will not be able to play anymore If i Want to in the Future. And the issue is that its not steam fault. Hope it comes with some lawsuits to this.

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
-
Steven The Heathen (@StevenHeathen) reported@RinoTheBouncer @playnewworld And I hope Amazon sells it to someone who can take it over. It had its issues, and there were things I really wanted to see change, but NW has flashes of greatness and there's no reason why this game should go down.
-
Essa (@EssaEssa1210662) reported@playnewworld still there is lagging in the game
-
Nyseetem (@nyseetem) reported@DarkPancakes @TheFizzyMind @playnewworld Have you tried putting your friend in a bag full or rice ? He seems broken :') Ahah
-
**** ICE Forever (@noshpan) reported@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.
-
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.
-
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 $$$.
-
TacitSpider (@TacitSpider) reported@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. 🤑

ᛏᚱᛁᛋᛏᚨᚾ 💍 (@tcubd) reported@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.
-
SapTheseCasters (@SapTheseCasters) reported@playnewworld Take WoW for instance. The servers lag when there's a world boss in a zone, the customer support is literally chatgpt, the story was terrible or boring for years, so the endgame progression and collections are the only real reasons it's still going.

𖤍 BlessedUPleasant 𖤍 (@blessedpleasant) reported@playnewworld lmfao, hit lvl 70 yesterday… just bought an extra gear set. apparently, the hopes were high, this game had the most potential it ever has….. i was having so much fun. what ******** is this news, genuinely. who will ever play a live service AGS game again
-
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.
-
Michael (@Zargisan) reported@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.
-
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.
-
ᛏᚱᛁᛋᛏᚨᚾ 💍 (@tcubd) reported@S_Berry_82 @playnewworld You're not understanding that even if they had 10x more players, Amazon would have pulled it anyways. This is not a "game bad" problem.
-
J (@Jesse__Kelley) reported@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!
-
Neakoh ☘️ (@Neakohh) reported@SavvvoGames @JeffBezos @playnewworld This game had so much potential and it was left to die. Years of nothing and a -10k concurrent playerbase on steam isn’t a huge community in anyway…don’t see them giving in to try to fix a game on life support but maybe.
-
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.
-
imjustkentaro (@im_just_kentaro) reportedStill 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.
-
Rikku (@FindTheRikku) reported@4ngryBe4ver @playnewworld SG is Singapore. It'll be better for both Aus and Sea players. So ******* annoying to play this game with 150+ ms, meanwhile Aus doesnt have any problem with pings and its soo anoying to play pvp
