New World Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
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.
-
TacitSpider (@TacitSpider) reported@playnewworld Seems to be the new trend now with "online service only" games. Remember that all of the money you spend on these games has a 100% guarantee that when the game inevitably DOES SHUT DOWN... you not only lose your time but ALL of the money you invested in the game. 🤑

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

MMO_Bean (@rdj4014) reported@StanKnight0077 @Robovader123 @playnewworld I imagine those players weren’t actually loyal to the game only to trying go engagement farming when they were talking shite about the game. The game had its issues, but for me personally it was a perfect blend of everything I enjoy about an MMO and was really laid back. I’ve never been a min/maxed or hardcore PvP player though and I noticed most people that I saw complaining were hardcore PvP driven and the type to rush through content and then complain there wasn’t any.

𝕏Demo (@EricFrandemo) reported@Aster1_ @itsaugmentedd Please do Elon. Buy @playnewworld too. Fix gaming, save the world.

JJ Gloom (@kinoandnectar) reported@Verliswolf @playnewworld **** was a broken mess from the start
-
Jake W. (@BitClownCrypto) reported@playnewworld Avoid Amazon live service/MMO games at all cost.
-
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.
-
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 $$$.

ProimagensJR 💿 (@ProimagensJ) reported@playnewworld It's so sad to see news like this. My heart is completely broken now.
-
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
-
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
-
Frankie (@smartassfrank) reported@playnewworld Sad we won’t have the drop of 500 Umbral after the fix. Quickly joining Outpost Rush for next 2 days. ;)
-
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
-
Peter Crumblin (@PeterCrumblin) reported@NWGameStatus @playnewworld Please fix logging in queues,i like everyone else would like to play the game we bought without having to sit in que for a hour, then praying ot doesnt crash pitting us to the back of the que again
-
Essa (@EssaEssa1210662) reported@playnewworld still there is lagging in the game
-
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.
-
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.
-
MamutManiek(🇵🇱) (@JamJakubon) reported@BrynnBumfuzzle @playnewworld I had a huge problem with it until I put the jewels everywhere, after that I did it in the first approach after putting the jewels
-
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.
-
Only one Question (@OnlyOneAnswer) reported@playnewworld Server Problems!!!
-
Charley Pangus (@CharleyPangusX) reported@NWGameStatus @playnewworld 2nd night trying to play and the queue times ruined it for me. Players don’t want to wait 3 hours or longer to play. You guys have to fix this. Why spend so much time and energy developing new DLC just to let something as basic as server capacity ruin your hard work?
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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).
-
cogolloQuemado (@fideosConTuc0__) reported@playnewworld Will you release the base code and server configs so the community can run custom/private servers? It’d be the best move for players who kept buying currency when the game was empty and broken. It’s in your hands; if you can’t maintain it, the community can.
-
xstitchx (@xstiitchx) reported@playnewworld there’s a issue at brimstone fort. Frames drop soooo low , my ps5 sounds a Boeing 747 taking off. Slim chance but can it be looked at xD
-
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 ****!!!!
-
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.
