-
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.
-
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
-
Tony Montana (@evanst812) reported@Kaelon @JoshStrifeHayes @playnewworld Inarguably the best PVP combat in an MMO. Problem is, MMO players generally don't enjoy PVP, and this game was originally made for PvP full loot type gameplay and shifted last minute to theme park. I put around 1k into the game during launch.

Osiris.BCN (@OsirisBCN) reported@playnewworld I still remember when they wanted to sell the game and promised ten years of service...
-
popojo07 🎖️ MILITARY 🎖️ (@JohnPopovich22) reported@SavvvoGames @JeffBezos @playnewworld Problem is Bezos is not even there anymore - he has been slowly selling off his stock. Some DEV company just needs to see if they can buy New World. I figured this was coming once they decided to rebrand Prime Gaming and I am afraid more changes will be coming, soon.

TheFITHOtaku (@TheFITHOtaku) reported@playnewworld and @amazongames, I believe I speak for every #NewWorld player when I say, ADD MORE SERVERS AND FIX THE QUEUES! US West is a constant 2k queue ALL DAY. Server Queues on US East are RIDICULOUS. Longest one I was in was 8k for US East Valhalla >_>;... @YaBoiWiilly BRO

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).
-
Adam Mackenzie (@ForceUk) reportedcome on @playnewworld please can you sort the servers only 1 taking character creation in EU and it has a que of 2400 no creation in the others and still queues. Please fix this
-
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.
-
Captain Killjoy (@earsinajar) reported@YaBoiWiilly @playnewworld We no lifed the game for weeks until it became clear they couldn't fix the unplayable lag in endgame. Never made sense to me that the World PvP was so good but then it's all decided in an INSTANCED zone that didn't work.
-
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.

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.
-
JJ Gloom (@kinoandnectar) reported@Verliswolf @playnewworld **** was a broken mess from the start
-
Öner (@kaan9621) reported@StevenJSharif @amazongames @playnewworld Fix the bugs in your game first.
-
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
-
Maor Dervis (@maordervis) reported@playnewworld Another live service bites the dust
-
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.
-
Tommy (@Iasuu_) reported@playnewworld Yall gotta increase server cap... a lot of people cant remote login from work. US West has 1 server...
-
Based Millennial (@bsdmillennial) reported@playnewworld Fix your ******* servers…you are an embarrassment.
-
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.
-
EXTRA ULTRA MAGA (@ATHEoST) reported@NWGameStatus @playnewworld Please fix the gates not opening in the catacombs. : )
-
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.
-
McWelsh (@McWelshWTF420) reported@ItzJustDannyy @NWGameStatus @playnewworld It's still broken for myself and many others even after this patch, can someone please look into this??
-
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.
-
Denzel (@DenzelTwitch) reported@playnewworld If you guys don't revamp this game and fix it you won't have anyone trusting Amazon games going forward every release you have had was a flop. No Mans Sky did the right thing. Learn from them or hire them to fix your games.
-
Anemyre (@COGs_Anemyre) reported@bswagz88 @playnewworld This game still had a healthy player base. The issue comes down to Amazon owning it. They have no idea what they're doing in the gaming space and they're soulless, only looking at cost/benefit. Now that tech is cutting fat, it was inevitable the floundering game division would be cut
-
Ziang (@Ziang85045937) reported@RealLucarioTV @NyceGamingYT @playnewworld Nah not every. FF14 is alive. Gw2 is alive. ESO is alive. Problem is...the game just had too many problems. I played it myself at launch and i bit my *** that my friends kept me over 2 hours so i couldn't refund on steam...it was just not that good...maybe it changed but...well
-
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.

Vanir Entertainment🎮📽️🎧🏒⚔️🛡️ (@Volsunga1985) reported@playnewworld I want a full refund.. how dare you steal out money and shut the servers down next year. This has to be illegal on so many levels.
