Andrewshark (@andrewshark91) reported@playnewworld What’s the point of live service games if they just keep shutting down..
-
Rodrigo Aces (@AcesRodrigo) reported@playnewworld im here just to see the car crash
-
Denzel (@DenzelTwitch) reported@playnewworld You really should do atleast half the amount of $ refunded back. I bought this game once and refunded when you watered it down and changed design plans. Bought it again to see if you would fix it even bought it for someone else.
-
NOPE (@NOPEMUR) reported@playnewworld Uncover 2+ hours in queue.... go fix it!

Based Millennial (@bsdmillennial) reported@playnewworld Fix your ******* servers…you are an embarrassment.

Brandon 🦅⭕️ (@bswagz88) reported@JexonHP @playnewworld It’s not about being cheap. It’s about transparency and consumer fairness. The devs clearly knew content development was winding down, that S10 was likely their last gasp, yet continued selling store items and DLC with no disclosure that the game was entering maintenance mode. That’s not equivalent to buying a movie ticket — it’s paying into a live service under the impression it’s ongoing. The ethics change dramatically when the service is knowingly winding down. Your argument hinges on false equivalence — comparing a complete, self-contained entertainment product (i.e., a movie or single-player game) with an ongoing live-service ecosystem that’s ending. A better analogy would be purchasing season tickets for your favorite sports team only to find out midway through the season that the team is dissolving the following season and during that next season the team won’t be playing any games — yet you can continue showing up to the stadium to purchase merch and food from the concession stands. There’s no perfect analogy for this sort of situation which is why GaaS are incredibly exploitative.

NRT (@OfficialMr_NRT) reported@dev_katyk @playnewworld There appears to be an issue with Easy Anti-Cheat issuing permanent bans without a clear reason. Multiple players have been affected, often receiving a ban message on the main menu after a long period of inactivity. Please Help!

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

Shield_PR_Gaming (@ShieldPR_real) reported@playnewworld you gotta fix your freakin game!!! Just tried to log in, the game put me in a waiting line, booted me out, forced me to another server and i lost my whole friends list and company! Tried to look for Hudsonland and was not on server list! So pissed right now!

Essa (@EssaEssa1210662) reported@playnewworld still there is lagging in the game
-
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.
-
R41D3NZ (@R41D3NZ) reportedHey @dev_katyk @playnewworld can you fix the afk kicking in arenas? I can’t even use shooters stance without being kicked for afk. It’s way too aggressive.
-
Jack (@JACK85H_) reported@playnewworld the latest queues to login have made the game unplayable - I don't want to have to wait minimum 10 to 15 minutes just to start.
-
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.
-
Kqbleb (@kqbleb) reported@blessedpleasant @playnewworld amazon aint doing live service mmos again. The mmo genre is a money pit unless you monetize like koreans
-
Sawtoothgrin (@Sawtoothgr1n) reported@playnewworld Well this will fix the queue problems lol
-
Lemmonnnn (@Lemmonnnn13) reported@playnewworld Right after the release of nighthaven? I mean, what ******** are we to do with gold cursed coconuts? This is actually bullshit because I’ve put thousands of hours into this broken *** game and I’ve stayed by AGS’s side since release, only to be betrayed like, this. Wtf man
-
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.
-
BerserkFPS (@BerserkFPS) reported@NWGameStatus No fix for Jester not coming down after a reset/wipe. And you have to leave the raid and restart the instance, and you have to kill the beginning adds again. I'm not sure if you all know, but the fix you guys did was not working at all. Needs to be fixed! @playnewworld
-
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.
-
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.)
-
Cas8spyder (@cas8spyder) reported@playnewworld East Server Empi is down. Keeps crashing and unable to get on. Sat in queue 3 times with about 500 on average than gets a connection error to start over again.
-
Bob1234x (@Bob1551x) reported@playnewworld I would love to play but there is always 1 hour waits to log in to my characters. you will lose me if you dont fix this crap
-
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.

Motcoeur (@Motcoeuriz) reported@playnewworld Fix pvp balanced didnt work . Boltcaster ignore all resistance ..
-
Verlis (@Verliswolf) reported@StevenJSharif @amazongames @playnewworld New World is my favorite MMO of all time. After the first major updates a lot of launch problems were fixed and it became the best MMO that kept getting better but wasn't given a second chance
-
Yhanabow (@culturecomplain) reported@LSXYZ9 @playnewworld Was also one of if not the most buggy game ever released sadly. Absolutely riddled with game breaking issues for a long long long time. Dead on arrival. One of the rare instances where the lay offs are fair given their performance.
-
Bongglemania | Ottertuber📿🦦 | VtuberEN (@Bongglemania) reportedI think with the announcement of @playnewworld shutting down i'm in a place where im done sparing peoples feelings around it. New world had technical problems but in the end its community sentenced it to death. I played 1400 hours as a PvE
-
𝙎𝙄𝙀𝙂𝙀 (@MorriSiege) reported from Thornton, England@playnewworld I can handle the fact that there are queues on the server and I think it's great the game is popular again, but what I can't deal with is queuing from 6k+ (3+hrs) down to 1st position, only to be sent to the back of the queue!! Please fix this ****!!!!

Muhammad faisal hadi (@isalhadii) reported@BrynnBumfuzzle @playnewworld I’ve been playing this game for ages, almost 7k hrs During Season 10, I was a bit late exploring the world because of queue issues. Didn’t even get to try all the content yet, and then out of nowhere AGS goes, “Surprise! This is the final season!” 😑
