New World Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • MiyukiVR_ 🎄MiyukiVR🎄 (@MiyukiVR_) reported

    @OnepegMG @playnewworld Not the afk timer. The the "combat logging" time. When you log out, DC, and or crash you're still in the server for around 1 minute and 30 seconds.

  • avengefulgamer avengefulgamer (@avengefulgamer) reported

    @SnugglesAltCoin @playnewworld Sadly I've already sunk over 20 hours of playtime and dont want to restart after playing in the open beta and closed beta. First world problems but problems nonetheless.

  • PapaA543 PapaA543 (@PapaA543) reported

    I absolutely love @playnewworld, may be one of the best games I've ever played but the fact that I have to wait over an hour every time I log on is unacceptable. @amazon should be embarrassed by this, of all the companies in all the world Amazon should not be having server issues

  • _NC_Vet_ Brandon The Veteran (@_NC_Vet_) reported

    If Amazon was going to fix @playnewworld crap queue and server lag, they would have by now. No update on how they will address the issue or anything. Back to #FFXIV Epic fail amazon. #NewWorldMMO

  • asusgamer Teknition (@asusgamer) reported

    @milesroozen @playnewworld Probably Backlight bleed. Common on IPS monitors. The 3090 and new world issue is bad soldering job by EVGA on some of their cards.

  • TheKoreCow 𝓚𝓸𝓻𝓮 (@TheKoreCow) reported

    @HiP1 @CarrieHaske @playnewworld There's also a SUBSTANTIAL amount of issues that should have been taken care of in the closed beta AND the open beta. People are getting stuck and it's not getting fixed using unstuck and then when they log out and log back in they're still stuck for hours on end.

  • Sinkillas Nick Alkire (@Sinkillas) reported

    @playnewworld Having an account that works as a Company Bank of sorts would make the character look afk even with someone actively keeping the account active between trades. Would this be broken with potential AFK kicking changes?

  • nomfcap2 cap (@nomfcap2) reported

    @playnewworld my game is broken stuck in q for 6 hours everytime pls fix

  • YourBoyZ8 CrazyBoss (@YourBoyZ8) reported

    @playnewworld Fix the queue times or allow us to join multiple worlds. I have 10 hours “played” and 7 of those are from waiting in queue.

  • CptAdderall Captain Adderall (@CptAdderall) reported

    @ECieplechowicz @Kephrii @playnewworld the issue here is that new world causes evga cards to try and render as many frames as it can, and as a result it tries to draw unlimited power and ends up tripping a fuse basically.

  • SwiftDeth13 John Cody Modrell (@SwiftDeth13) reported

    @playnewworld The queue times are quite bad but can we talk about the rubber banding that makes combat impossible, or the fact that I have to literally walk my character one step at a time to get anywhere. Great game, great potential! Looking forward to playing with no issues

  • levity1982 Ben Deering (@levity1982) reported

    @brunopo_ @playnewworld I had he same issue. 30 mins and still stuck.

  • Mourad_A_Eissa Mourad A. Eissa (@Mourad_A_Eissa) reported

    @playnewworld Would you please fix connection error for Egyptian players as we reported to you on customer support and forums that game doesn't allow Egyptians to join (region or ISP block ??) Even some player have a workaround to join by changing region with VPN fix and can be banned !

  • silverhazey_ Stephen Riley (@silverhazey_) reported

    Bro, @playnewworld your ****** game is STILL killing GPU's? Bro..what is wrong with your coding? How did you manage to have this issue in beta, and still now? Is it because your trash game is still in basically pre-alpha, with optimization AND amount of content? So sad my guys.

  • VapinGamers Vapin Gamers (@VapinGamers) reported

    @GoopWalls @playnewworld Dude tell me about it. I can't even log in on my original toon. I winded up making another one that I have been playing on. I get stuck in the que and then errors out after having me wait almost 3 hours.

  • vaskumer Vasku (@vaskumer) reported

    @FATE4k @playnewworld yeah tried some of that and nothing works, not gonna risk it and gonna wait for them to fix it on a patch hopefully soon

  • akogwapo15 alfred XAD (@akogwapo15) reported

    @Inside_4ndroid @playnewworld applinked is not working sir

  • milesroozen UberGuitarDude (@milesroozen) reported

    @asusgamer @playnewworld different ports, but the issues persists. I guess the good news is that my other monitors work fine in this same port so that's leaning towards it not being a GPU issue and maybe just the monitors time to go excelled by a power surge or something? No clue about this stuff btw.

  • Deadzed2011 Deadzed (@Deadzed2011) reported

    @YummiBadB0y @playnewworld In 1 month the pop will be down to 100k, due to those quitting cause lack of features (no quest sharing, poor multiplayer experience, no endgame, ect) and those leaving due to this queue problem/technical issues.

  • rafalohaki Rafał (@rafalohaki) reported

    @JeffBezos @playnewworld Need to fix GPU high consumption. My GTX is literally burning.

  • milesroozen UberGuitarDude (@milesroozen) reported

    @_rafuru @playnewworld Well, I'm not sure. Just from what I've been reading. I just was streaming New World, it froze my PC (which it's done before) and completely crashed me. Came back and here we are this time with a permanent(?) monitor issue. I have to wonder what happened.

  • pontoLaseR Mateus "dotLaseR" Reis (@pontoLaseR) reported

    @playnewworld Can we get some sort of a "mercy" system for crashes and disconnects? Like if you disconnect for some reason you have 5 mins or something to get back in game skipping the queue, worst feeling in the world to have your game crash and not be able to jump imediatly back in

  • z0ddic z0ddic (@z0ddic) reported

    @playnewworld Please fix the unbearable dungeon lag… Iroko EU Central.. It’s impossible to kill Simon Grey with the insane delay.. Attacks go off before the animations even start. Doesn’t matter if done at 4am or 8pm…

  • WheaT0ast 🍞 ˗ˏˋ Lindsy ˎˊ˗ 🍞 (@WheaT0ast) reported

    @flexinja @playnewworld How is the temp of your gpu and cpu? Because when I say my both if mine were being nuked... boy howdy. My cpu would crap its pants and my entire computer would crash. I undervolted my cpu a bit and fiddled with the fan settings to get the temp to safer levels. Runs fine now.

  • xNavz xNavz | RG (@xNavz) reported

    @playnewworld Hey new world while I’m waiting in queue. Can you possible fix the company message board issue? Also, I can’t deny company invites even when I press x it say I have to give up governor (not gonna happen lol). Don’t worry I’ll have more when I’m chillin in queue again.

  • Ten_Letters10 Tenletters 📷 🎮 (@Ten_Letters10) reported

    @playnewworld Having a really bad issue with the "Lag Detected" bug. Spending 2 hours in queue to sit and have the game unplayable because of the bug makes it super frustrating.

  • rockyba11507781 rocky balboa (@rockyba11507781) reported

    @playnewworld @Treadog Any way I could put a request in to transfer my character to another world? The world filled up and is full now and I have friends who bought the game but can't play with me and the group of people who started already... really big problem.

  • ThomasDiyWv ThomasDiy (@ThomasDiyWv) reported

    @JeffBezos @playnewworld You never address the issues associated with every major MMORPG. Adults wanna be treated like adults! We want an 18+ adult server with in game nudy

  • milesroozen UberGuitarDude (@milesroozen) reported

    So uh I guess @playnewworld actually is frying cards. Because they either fried my monitor and/or my 3090. Lmao.... No idea how to fix this at the moment. Right in the middle of stream too.

  • SimplySomeGuy Some Guy (@SimplySomeGuy) reported

    @playnewworld But first.... play DMV simulator (the queue) THEN you can play NW all weekend, unless there is a crash or you d/c
