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.
-
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.
-
ᛏᚱᛁᛋᛏᚨᚾ 💍 (@tcubd) reported@Sensiblelogic06 @S_Berry_82 @playnewworld 50k peak this month. If player numbers were a problem it would have been canceled when it was averaging 8k months over month 3 years ago. Stop defending corporate greed.
-
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.

Stephen Parker (@sparker888) reported@playnewworld My heartrune is broken 4eva 💔
-
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
-
Tame Token (@tametoken) reported@playnewworld More players would complete the raid if you fixed Gems not working in armor.
-
Propi (@Propii69) reported@GrumpyPawsTV @zzzSkadi @playnewworld The first year wasn’t **** either, the game was buggy and had a lot of issues but they were pumping out solid content updates while fixing everything at a solid pace, main one being the brimstone patch
-
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.

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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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"
-
Only one Question (@OnlyOneAnswer) reported@rozilol @playnewworld Server Problems!!!
-
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.
-
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
-
ᛏᚱᛁᛋᛏᚨᚾ 💍 (@tcubd) reported@Sensiblelogic06 @S_Berry_82 @playnewworld Again. Player retention was not an issue for the game to operate, as Amazon was fine operating the game with an average of 8-10k for 3-4 years. It's not like they were expected to have 1 MILLION players for 5 years.
-
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).
-
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!
-
ChrisK (@chrrisk_) reported@andski @playnewworld it says they’re not ending service for new world anymore
-
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?
-
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.

EXTRA ULTRA MAGA (@ATHEoST) reported@NWGameStatus @playnewworld Please fix the gates not opening in the catacombs. : )
-
Kqbleb (@kqbleb) reported@blessedpleasant @playnewworld amazon aint doing live service mmos again. The mmo genre is a money pit unless you monetize like koreans
-
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.
-
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
-
J (@Jesse__Kelley) reported@NWGameStatus @playnewworld Fix the ******* queue every time at 5 it’s goes past 1,000 & sit and wait for 45 min to get in to having your game crash when I fast travel & sit in queue again. Insane how you don’t realize it . Embarrassing!
-
AD (@AD1396AD) reported@vobic13 @playnewworld Clearly it was already in the works, and almost finished anyway. What's your problem with the devs wanting to honor the customers one last time, despite being laid off? Stop with the clown logic.

bob (@Crossboneee) reported@NWGameStatus @playnewworld I don’t know what you broke but please fix it, haven’t had any issues with lagging in months and since this last ‘maintenance’ I’m literally teleporting and lagging every second! The game is literally unplayable and no it’s not my connection I have wired gigabit internet 🤦🏻
