New World Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
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 $$$.
-
Verlis (@Verliswolf) reported@LSXYZ9 @playnewworld Its secretly been the best MMO out there. It hit 1M concurrents on launch but was a mess with way too many problems and devs being too slow to fix things so everyone quit and never talked about it again. Recent upates made the game PEAK
-
ZWOGs (@ZWOGsOfficial) reported@playnewworld Sell it to someone who can actually fix it. Because this game was incredible at launch and it only got worse for no reason. Give it to someone who can do the job. This is such a shame to see.
-
Mindwipe (@SoloMindWipe) reported@playnewworld Absolutely insane. Sure the game had issues and you lost a lot of players with those dumb server queues and the initial bugs, but shutting it down after this very good expansion...stupid.
-
SapTheseCasters (@SapTheseCasters) reported@playnewworld Take WoW for instance. The servers lag when there's a world boss in a zone, the customer support is literally chatgpt, the story was terrible or boring for years, so the endgame progression and collections are the only real reasons it's still going.

Jenn 🐙 🔜 TwitchCon SD🌴 (@jenntacles_) reportedDevastated over this💔 From the player count & hype I really thought @playnewworld was back, my brain can't process this news My heart is broken for the NW team, they really did an amazing job on Nighthaven & didn't deserve this. Layoffs before the holidays are so diabolical
-
Hoff (@hoffapproved) reported@towelthetank @summit1g @playnewworld Dude. If people love the game. They need to spend money on it. Plain and simple. This is a live service product with a cash shop. Be real.
-
Tommy (@Iasuu_) reported@playnewworld Yall gotta increase server cap... a lot of people cant remote login from work. US West has 1 server...
-
DarkBiCin (@DarkBiCin) reported@playnewworld needs to fix gear. its wild that every single gear piece you get from the Halloween event has Fire Harnessing basically meaning all the gear we get is useless for most players.
-
ᛏᚱᛁᛋᛏᚨᚾ 💍 (@tcubd) reported@S_Berry_82 @playnewworld You're not understanding that even if they had 10x more players, Amazon would have pulled it anyways. This is not a "game bad" problem.
-
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.
-
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
-
Fora di Contexto 🗣️ (@ForaDiContexto) reported@playnewworld The game is unplayable right now. I've been playing since the new content was released, and in about two hours today I've crashed eight times without making any changes to my computer or game settings. FIX YOUR GAME!
-
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.)
-
Aivovna (@aivovna) reported@playnewworld Game was fun at launch (like most mmos), but a copypasted PvP game quickly flipped into a more PvE focused experience ended poorly Last time I logged in, the end game was: Lag from chest to chest in the desert and run the same 3 mythic+ lite dungeons over and over again Also p2w
-
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.
-
JJ Gloom (@kinoandnectar) reported@Verliswolf @playnewworld **** was a broken mess from the start
-
cogolloQuemado (@fideosConTuc0__) reported@playnewworld Will you release the base code and server configs so the community can host custom and private servers? It would be at least the best move for players who stuck around and kept buying in-game currency even when the game was empty and broken.
-
Enomao (@Enomao86) reported@SavvvoGames @JeffBezos @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"
-
Kqbleb (@kqbleb) reported@Cheyenesku @ShultsyPlays @playnewworld Lmao the game died like 2 years ago. Nothing to do with corporate when they didnt fix some very very important aspects of their game like m3s.
-
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
-
Rayleightt (@rayleightt) reported@playnewworld We spent real money on New World. Amazon released a major update just 1 month before shutting the game down. That’s not service ending that’s misleading players into spending more. This deserves refunds or compensation. #NewWorld #AmazonGame
-
𝕏Demo (@EricFrandemo) reported@Aster1_ @itsaugmentedd Please do Elon. Buy @playnewworld too. Fix gaming, save the world.
-
imjustkentaro (@im_just_kentaro) reportedStill at a loss for words over what #amazon did to #playnewworld. I thought maybe they would have shut it down years ago but to release this huge new update and make a solid effort to fix a lot of the issues with the game only to rugpull everyone is baffling.

Gioˢᶠᶜ (@flappySFC) reported@playnewworld Fix QUEUES , do something
-
sixty7gt500 (@Rupinski) reported@playnewworld Minor Error found: Peacocks can't give eggs. Consider changing the birds name to Peafowl
-
Dermi (@0603_luke) reported@Haoshoku @LSXYZ9 @playnewworld But release was *** in any way. 1 year after the release they started to fix everything and the game was awesome. But no Promo, Not even for the add-on
-
Genadine (@Genadine1) reported@SavvvoGames @JeffBezos @playnewworld Games with a PvP core environment are always going to be niche, add to that an awful launch and it was always going to be an uphill struggle. Then comes along AI which will fix absolutely nothing but is CHEAP and there you go. Suits see money money money.

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).
