YomamaCookGoodFood (@GoodYomama) reported@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

akito (@akitoshaoku) reported@lDkayyl @towelthetank @playnewworld That's the problem that he doesn't want to acknowledge. He's virtue signaling to sign petitions and "show amazon we want New World" but then is on WoW streaming instead. This is the new Culturally trendy thing that gets eyes on him but not on the real issue.

Rickey Williams (@Sensiblelogic06) reported@tcubd @S_Berry_82 @playnewworld They were not fine, you are saying they are dine and I am confused why you are saying that, they were not happy with 8 to 10k players the fact you are saying that is the issue with your argument, mmorpgs will not do well with that low of a base especially new ones

RespawnX (@XRespawn1) reported@playnewworld For us aussies Under Australian Consumer Law (ACL), digital games must be of acceptable quality, fit for purpose, and match their description/promises (e.g., ongoing live-service MMO).If a shutdown makes it unfit/unplayable contrary to what was promised, it's a potential major failure → entitling refund/replacement (overrides "no refund" policies).

Propi (@Propii69) reported@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
-
Shultsy 👾 (@ShultsyPlays) reported@SavvvoGames @JeffBezos @playnewworld This game made zero money in 5 years because of its development team. The game wasn't the issues, the leadership choices were.
-
Seebs (@seebsuu) reported@hammerify @LSXYZ9 @playnewworld All of this is so untrue haha. It’s an MMO, and comparatively, the grind was not bad at all. And if you were in an opposing faction territory…. Just go to one of your own if it’s that bad. I never had an issue of getting killed on repeat.
-
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.
-
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.
-
CptShooter (@CptShooter) reported@playnewworld The game had its moments. But the persistent failure to acknowledge the game's major systemic issues and the reluctance to fix them killed it. The constant creation and merging of servers instead of system overhauls was just one of the things that turned me off.
-
LordoftheCritics (@LordoftheCritic) reported@playnewworld Anti consumer move. It should have left behind an offline mode. Time to sue all these live service companies
-
Roger Barreto (@rogerbarretto) reported@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.
-
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
-
Enomao (@Enomao86) reported@NyceGamingYT @playnewworld We have to unsubscribe from any Amazon service we have contracted as a form of complaint. And in the reasons section, put closure "New World : Aeternum"
-
Olexander Kozynets (@Alex_Kozinets) reported@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
-
Jake W. (@BitClownCrypto) reported@playnewworld Avoid Amazon live service/MMO games at all cost.
-
Leon Kennedy (@CutterNW) reported@StevenJSharif @amazongames @playnewworld I hope your game helps fill the void this left in me. Fingers crossed for a smooth release ill be waiting to login when it's ready.
-
Essa (@EssaEssa1210662) reported@playnewworld still there is lagging in the game
-
akito (@akitoshaoku) reported@towelthetank @lDkayyl @playnewworld The "problem" is that you and others are going ham on "This shouldn't have happened, the game doesn't deserve this" but then you do nothing to help it beyond the petition equivalent of "I'm rooting for you!" Very disingenuous
-
Fellow Platypus (@Fellow_Platypus) reported@playnewworld Guys c’mon. The dialogue skipping still hasn’t been fixed. What ******** guys. Please fix this ****, I can’t listen to a conversation without skipping dialogue when I press the next button.
-
Goo (@Goo_Gurt_) reported@GrumpyPawsTV @playnewworld If they release private servers, I'll fix the game.
-
KK (@KammyBuckets) reported@NWGameStatus @playnewworld Can you guys please fix the servers please 1000+ people in a queue
-
Tame Token (@tametoken) reported@playnewworld More players would complete the raid if you fixed Gems not working in armor.
-
Spam (@Spamsum) reported@LSXYZ9 @playnewworld combat and social elements were great (but lots of drama) but honestly it was clear that the devs didn't play their own game. many systems didnt work, things would break patch to patch and then be left broken for months at a time. VERY frustrating for the playerbase
-
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.
-
Liliums (ᛚᛁᛚᛁᚢᛗᛊ) (@Elsdragon01) reported@playnewworld the game should remain online. without updates, patchs, fixes anything. maybe gm service's but from volunteers. under staff management. this is why the "stop killing games" started. new world IS a good game. just no one listened to feed back and did anything. (so it felt.)
-
TexasBoyRob (@Robert_Ed1982) reportedHey @playnewworld I’m having a lag detected and time out issue with the game. I’m not having issues with anything else on my PC. I’ve restarted the router (I’m on Fiber). I’m hard wired. Verified game files. Game is on a current gen SSD. Updates done. Please help.
-
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 $$$.
-
Karusso (@Karusso03) reported@playnewworld What happened to a 6 month notice before shutting servers down? Oh the player base dipped from 40k to 500 people, crazy how that happened.
-
big research (@bigresearch99) reportedAmazon is going to pay a long term price for shutting down New World @playnewworld - Not just one game, its a long term broken promise. You take money as people build up their accounts, then abandon them. Forget @playtlgame - People will quit/avoid that too. Forget future games.
