New World Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Champioee BlacCobra (@Champioee) reported

    @playnewworld We already paid for the service and game so let us get into the game quickly... Why do we need to wait to play the game like waiting for Amazon's courier?

  • ClassiGetsSassi ClassiGetsSassi (@ClassiGetsSassi) reported

    @AladdinLTD @playnewworld From what I've heard, if you crash, it puts you into a different queue than the normal first time player base, but that might just be a rumor?

  • esKa_gg esKa (@esKa_gg) reported

    @playnewworld Is there any news on a fix for the Armine dungeon bug? The server Nunne Chaha is having issues, mobs hitboxes don't exsist and massive CD on your abilities, and it's somehow making people invincible to light/heavy attacks and only venerable to abilities in PVP too.

    @playnewworld PLEASE sort the server issues. I’ve tried for 2 days to get on and I’ve still not played a game I paid for !!!!! I work so I can’t spend 5 hours in a Queue that keeps kicking me out.

  • ElTony1620 FangoFett (@ElTony1620) reported

    @InvittoMane @CtrlAltTaco @playnewworld Because more players = Unstable server, maybe server lag who knows what kind of problem servers would have if they increase the capacity by alot.

  • QSRIchi1 Ricardo Alavez (@QSRIchi1) reported

    @playnewworld Fix US-East Silha 1600+ in queue

  • DOPESTSOLDIER DOPESTSOLDIER (@DOPESTSOLDIER) reported

    @playnewworld UPDATE: I press "OK" and waited 20 seconds and it put me back into Queue right around where I was when I got the error.

  • HaHarisson Hzinn (@HaHarisson) reported

  • HamondMark M7MD 🇸🇦❤️ (@HamondMark) reported

    @primegaming @playnewworld @Fextralife Got all the items from the drops and still haven't even played the game stuck at lvl12 thanks to your queues ... please fix it, this is outrageous. 11 hours in queue and still 3900 in queue GREAT LAUNCH BTW

  • Adman43536 Adam Kwiatkowski (@Adman43536) reported

    @JonSnaw_1 @playnewworld Again… sounds like poor planing… They had issues with long queues in the beta… seems they didn’t address that very well.

  • Dreamruinerz Subheim (@Dreamruinerz) reported

    @playnewworld Connection error when all is good on my side, 3-4 hours of waiting in queue, was at 30 when it happens, get me back in :(

  • thiccgirlpeach Thiccgirlpeach (@thiccgirlpeach) reported

    NEW WORLDDDD fix this queueing!!!!! @playnewworld

  • GamerB3njji ben stanger (@GamerB3njji) reported

    @playnewworld Fix loadin times in slavna eu server please

  • vgbx99 Vgbx (@vgbx99) reported

    @playnewworld Plz maintenance fix Server SA/ALATYR

  • Vitor_Vaz15 Vitor Vaz (@Vitor_Vaz15) reported

    @playnewworld There seems to be a problem with the server names ingame. I play in Muspelheim, and everyday in the "Esc" menu it tells me im logged in a different server.

  • Panch_20 Pancho Andrade C (@Panch_20) reported

    @playnewworld Guys cmon… waiting 4 hours to enter, playing for 20 minutes get disconnected due to “lag detected” when I have a perfectly good internet connection, then having to wait another 4-5 hours to enter again… been with you since alpha this is not nice

  • HostCevy Cevy (@HostCevy) reported

    @playnewworld now onto the queue issues

  • SWE_Motorizer SWE_Motorizer (@SWE_Motorizer) reported

    @RaGe_Mahdi @playnewworld And after a few hours you disconnect and have to start over....

  • DOPESTSOLDIER DOPESTSOLDIER (@DOPESTSOLDIER) reported

    @Adman43536 @playnewworld I just waited from 1650 down to 600 and got an error. lol. About 2 1/2 of wait time.

  • _MattMcFarland Matt McFarland (@_MattMcFarland) reported

    @playnewworld Are there any plans to add a crash queue with how long the wait times are for even populated servers? Very frustrating to crash when leaving an expedition only to then be back in a 2000 person queue for something that isn't my fault..

  • Gaming___Legend OG Gaming (@Gaming___Legend) reported

    @playnewworld It's expected with how popular the game was in the beta we ran into the same issue and now that it's released it expected you can only plan ahead so much and no game ever has ever had a no wait queue time so we appreciate what your doing do get us in the game

  • MrsBojanglez_ Mrs Bojanglez (@MrsBojanglez_) reported

    @playnewworld Can you please advise if there is a fix for bugged Faction quests that make it impossible for faction to accept your finished quests and you can’t progress the storyline?

  • ClarkDelke Delke Clark (@ClarkDelke) reported

    @playnewworld Maybe fix Tapalorka server, we can't do dungeons and pvp

  • Tylorw Tylor Blaine (@Tylorw) reported

    @playnewworld Two things you should fix .... If you accidentally hit ESC while on the queue screen ... you shouldn't leave queue with just a tap of the button ... IF you get DCed... you should have a grace period to get back in the game ... literally stupid.

  • Adman43536 Adam Kwiatkowski (@Adman43536) reported

    @playnewworld Maybe fix the queues for NA… I’ve been in queue for an hour and only moved 10 spots.

  • EGA_Darkness Brandon Black (@EGA_Darkness) reported

    @playnewworld It truly baffles me how you guys have not implemented a queue protection. For a game thats brand new with many bugs due to crash games, you would expect a 5-10 minute queue protection, now I have to wait an extra 5 hours to play because a loading screen made my game die

  • LuKi965 Łukasz (@LuKi965) reported

    @playnewworld @AMZNGameStudios Amazon <-> Steam accounts linking doesn't work at Twitch Drops and Support page so it's impossible to claim drops for the game or message your support... Any ETA for fix?

  • TheEndbossTV TheEndBoss (@TheEndbossTV) reported

    Anybody else getting constant "Failed to join login queue" and "Login service isn't available" errors while in queue for New World? Yesterday I could sit through a 5k queue now I can't even get past 10 people before it kicks me out. @playnewworld #NewWorldMMO

  • Tankramp Bob T (@Tankramp) reported

    @playnewworld Why is there no crash mitigation? I've got a 3080, 5950x pc. I just crashed transitioning from Amrine to Windsward. I relaunched the game in under 30 seconds. And I'm now met with a 2030 queue. How ******* ridiculous.
