Rayleightt (@rayleightt) reported@playnewworld We spent real money on New World. Amazon released a major update just 1 month before shutting the game down. That’s not service ending that’s misleading players into spending more. This deserves refunds or compensation. #NewWorld #AmazonGame
-
Fat Tony (@FatManinavan) reported@playnewworld Thousands of hours invested in this game. Sad sad days. By far my favorite mmo of all time. Even with the many issues. Played since day 1
-
Jake W. (@BitClownCrypto) reported@playnewworld Avoid Amazon live service/MMO games at all cost.
-
Goo (@Goo_Gurt_) reported@GrumpyPawsTV @playnewworld If they release private servers, I'll fix the game.
-
Rio (@mseba2004) reported@amazongames @playnewworld this raffelbones bug closing extraction in catacombs is infuriating ******* fix it you actually have a good game mode
-
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?
-
Neakoh ☘️ (@Neakohh) reported@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.
-
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
-
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.

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.
-
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.
-
Azur (@Azur_one1) reported@realdibuk @NyceGamingYT @playnewworld i mean the problem is right there in the main post, thats what, like, 20 players?
-
Cas8spyder (@cas8spyder) reported@playnewworld East Server Empi is down. Keeps crashing and unable to get on. Sat in queue 3 times with about 500 on average than gets a connection error to start over again.
-
Nyseetem (@nyseetem) reported@DarkPancakes @TheFizzyMind @playnewworld Have you tried putting your friend in a bag full or rice ? He seems broken :') Ahah
-
💵Collect & Serve💵 (@_SleuthSlayer_) reported@playnewworld I enjoyed this game, but the issue was 1000 player servers at launch.
-
akito (@akitoshaoku) reported@lDkayyl @towelthetank @playnewworld That's the problem that he doesn't want to acknowledge. He's virtue signaling to sign petitions and "show amazon we want New World" but then is on WoW streaming instead. This is the new Culturally trendy thing that gets eyes on him but not on the real issue.
-
Hom Tuese (@TueseH) reported@andrewshark91 @playnewworld You obviously misunderstood the meaning of live service. It's a model to service money out of you while the game's alive (usually for the first 2 weeks)
-
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.
-
Mithraic_Path_of_Dharma (@MithraicDharma) reported@playnewworld Honestly you had a great game, could have kept it going if you adjusted the monetization model. Live service games always have me worried about bug companies just walking away.
-
Harry Palms (@desauce2) reported from Bermuda Dunes, California@playnewworld are the servers down? Strange things are going on for me and a buddy. Says no world activity,US West, El Dorado server.
-
Kamil Wójcik (@kamonke22) reported@DidItMyWayYT @playnewworld bro discovered game as a service xD Should have read the terms of agreement before accepting.
-
Tame Token (@tametoken) reported@YaBoiWiilly @amazon @playnewworld 1. Gems don't work 2. Devs accidently left old perks on gear 3. Devs focused on Gay characters in main story quest 4. Economy and crafting butchered from update, mobs instant spawn and drop 4x 730 Gear 5. Catacombs glitched and can't finish run sometimes Game is broken.

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.
-
Gioˢᶠᶜ (@flappySFC) reported@playnewworld Fix QUEUES , do something
-
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.
-
akito (@akitoshaoku) reported@towelthetank @lDkayyl @playnewworld The "problem" is that you and others are going ham on "This shouldn't have happened, the game doesn't deserve this" but then you do nothing to help it beyond the petition equivalent of "I'm rooting for you!" Very disingenuous
-
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

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.

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.

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