  • Streetbfan Brantley Westlund (@Streetbfan) reported

    @playnewworld Alot of us currently can't play your game because Steam is currently having issues with Easy Anti Cheat and it is causing errors within the system. There is an entire reddit post within the hour full of players who cannot play, even after trouble shooting.

  • FuTuReChAsEr99 Noah Tatoyian (@FuTuReChAsEr99) reported

    @shawnwsl1 @playnewworld Yeah that’s what I was saying after I did that it just says that when I try and join the server so I think it’s just ****** and we have to wait until new world wants to fix it.

  • Goon_PublicRep Goon_PublicAffairs (@Goon_PublicRep) reported

    @playnewworld @Steam GG you just bricked almost all of your games with this client update. Roll back or fix ASAP. Do you not have a QA department???

  • sattatv satta (@sattatv) reported

    @playnewworld It appears the latest update broke Anti-Cheat and a whole bunch of people can't log-in due to a error message "Not logged into steam" and googled suggestions are not fixing it.. Is there an ETA on the fix please?
