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 ****!!!!

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
-
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. 🤑

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).

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.)

Sykashii (@Sykashii) reported@playnewworld We need to fix heartrunes they are bugged and won’t drop nice job 🫡
-
GameorGrift (@GameorGrift) reported@_m00nrise @Pirat_Nation @playnewworld They could set it up to do dedicated servers though that are player run. They are just ******** and will never do that. New world would do GREAT as Community hosted content or even as a sub based service as long as it wasn't pay to win. Remove the entire dev team, swap to sub base system. and start rebuilding with a team that gives a ****.

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.
-
BagginsTV (@BagginsTV) reported@ShultsyPlays @playnewworld That's not honest, it's jaded. The engine the devs were forced the use was a mess of spaghetti code (which is what caused a significant number of the bugs and issues) and they had Amazon execs stifling every creative choice they wanted to make in the name of maximising profit. Many, many things were mishandled throughout this game's life, and there is a whole lot of things that could and should've been better, but I'll die on the hill that the core dev team - the creatives, vfx artists, etc and the developers, system/mechanics/combat designers etc, were not the issue.
-
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.
-
Doctor Destix (@doctordestix) reported@SometimesClutch @ShultsyPlays @playnewworld Not correct. Guild Wars 2 doesn’t have a sub and is still running. There are other games that function this way as well. The problem is that they botched the launch and damaged their image. Which I may add is the most important problem.
-
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.

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.

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.

Essa (@EssaEssa1210662) reported@playnewworld still there is lagging in the game
-
Azur (@Azur_one1) reported@realdibuk @NyceGamingYT @playnewworld i mean the problem is right there in the main post, thats what, like, 20 players?

-
Ori Node (@Ori_Node) reported@playnewworld Trying to contact support about an ingame issue but frankly finding out HOW to contact support is impossible
-
TheMightyBaloon (@TheMightyBaloon) reported@LSXYZ9 @playnewworld also the issue with the game have lost visibility isn't because no hype but because it was ******* mismanaged and buggy as ****
-
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. ;)
-
sixty7gt500 (@Rupinski) reported@playnewworld Minor Error found: Peacocks can't give eggs. Consider changing the birds name to Peafowl
-
Matheus “Cursed” Almeida (@TheusAlmeidaa) reported@playnewworld Fix the servers! 5k people on SA servers, i just cant play at night.
-
Shute (@FemboyShuta) reported@DidItMyWayYT @playnewworld problem is no you didnt "buy the game" you bought a "license to play the game" and it would have said until services are taken down
-
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.
-
Öner (@kaan9621) reported@StevenJSharif @amazongames @playnewworld Fix the bugs in your game first.
