    @SavvvoGames @JeffBezos @playnewworld This game had so much potential and it was left to die. Years of nothing and a -10k concurrent playerbase on steam isn’t a huge community in anyway…don’t see them giving in to try to fix a game on life support but maybe.

    @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.

    @playnewworld When will you solve the queue problem on all servers, including SA?

    @BagginsTV @playnewworld Can we be honest here now that it's over? This was the worst development team on an MMO ARPG I've ever seen. This dev team was garbage the entire time. From delayed updates, DLCs not working for hours after launch, focusing on PvP for an entire year, and 2 DLCs in 5 years.

    @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.

    Amazon 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.

    @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

    @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

    @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.

    Still 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.

    @playnewworld >500 Twitch employees laid off >Amazon's first game has support ended Are they ready to admit they're in trouble yet?

    @rozilol @playnewworld Now is broken right now

  • TacitSpider
    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. 🤑

    @playnewworld Guys c’mon. The dialogue skipping still hasn’t been fixed. What ******** guys. Please fix this ****, I can’t listen to a conversation without skipping dialogue when I press the next button.

    @playnewworld Pathetic. Even EQ still has live servers that dedicated players are able to still play on. We now know we can never trust any future products of Amazon Games or their cloud gaming service “Luna”

    Seebs (@seebsuu) reported

    @hammerify @LSXYZ9 @playnewworld All of this is so untrue haha. It’s an MMO, and comparatively, the grind was not bad at all. And if you were in an opposing faction territory…. Just go to one of your own if it’s that bad. I never had an issue of getting killed on repeat.

  • fideosConTuc0__
    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.

    Wismic (@blairewismic) reported

    @playnewworld That's crazy. Especially considering there's quite literally over 2x the active, daily, and peak player-count for this game compared to ESO by Zenimax, without Amazon's infinite money glitch in the back pocket. Major misplay by Amazon.

    @666718 @playnewworld We would be ''so back'' if this queue problem were solved, but almost 2 weeks have passed and nothing has been done. It's sad to see such a good game with terrible management

    @STTP_WILSON @LSXYZ9 @playnewworld skill issue, the actual broken part was the netcode being client authoritative

  • bswagz88
    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.

    @salvarespo @DidItMyWayYT @playnewworld It’s part of the service. If no one is playing it they can’t provide a server.

  • CptShooter
    CptShooter (@CptShooter) reported

    @playnewworld The game had its moments. But the persistent failure to acknowledge the game's major systemic issues and the reluctance to fix them killed it. The constant creation and merging of servers instead of system overhauls was just one of the things that turned me off.

  • DidItMyWayYT
    I Did It My Way (@DidItMyWayYT) reported

    @RenewedAurora @playnewworld It's not about the money, it's about sending a message. Either they give the community the ability to host their own servers or they give their money back, just accepting that companies can take **** off you whenever they run into financial trouble is insane.
