    @playnewworld good to see that you're fixing some bugs and stuff. but our war for cutlass keys (thule) is set for 4pm CET today, how are we gonna defend the city if we have approx. 4 hours of maintenance? (+login queue i suppose) :(

  • CyclopticOwl _Climate_ (@CyclopticOwl) reported

    @playnewworld Where's the fix for not being able to declare war despite being the only company to participate in PvP quests?!

  • chiknnuggey chiknnuggey (@chiknnuggey) reported

    @playnewworld Did y'all finally fix the "Time out while waiting for server to describe world" bug?? I've been locked out of my main level 40 character for 3 days straight.

  • Lua_R6 Lua (@Lua_R6) reported

    @ReleNtless1gVAL @playnewworld If they up the server capacity I don’t mind at all. I wake up early so I don’t really have issues with waiting to login. But it’s hard to play with friends when they have to wait 2-3 hours to get in. 😖

  • CapCorgiTTV CapCorgi (@CapCorgiTTV) reported

    @thegunee @yozsh_ @playnewworld Eh still worth telling how broken LifeStaff is honestly.

  • jat0rz jat0rz (@jat0rz) reported

    @playnewworld The game has been absolutely amazing. However... the lag we experience in the expeditions only makes them borderline unplayable. I know it isn't everyone.. but on our server they are all bad. It's halting progression.

  • xkcu6 tears (@xkcu6) reported

    @playnewworld Any news on Gorias Amrine Dungeon Lags/Delay? Entire server is suffering from this it's almost impossible to do the main quest with this lag. I think Gorias is the only server with this problem. Please have a look :)

  • ThatGuyMooses John Horton (@ThatGuyMooses) reported

    @playnewworld Fix Armone I’d like to continue with the story line

  • Hell80966565 Hell (@Hell80966565) reported

    @playnewworld You guys are doing amazing work but you need to fix compass issue when players group up and whole compass get f-ed up and also the issue with passives of ice gauntlet causing the ice spells stop after swapping weapon please!

  • Gonhk1 Gonhk (@Gonhk1) reported

    @PapaPulse @playnewworld I did it yesterday, no problems there

  • RoarkBruno bruno roark (@RoarkBruno) reported

    @playnewworld can you please fix all the ice gauntlet bug? i cant see my projectile, i cant see the spikes from my skills, few times a day my ice gauntlet skin cover my clothes skin in a buggy way that is both funny and disturbing.

  • praveenram1983 Praveen Ram (@praveenram1983) reported

    @playnewworld I login after 6 hrs then...

  • boooked booked (@boooked) reported

    @playnewworld FIX THE SERVER LAG FIX THE SERVER LAG FIX THE ZONE LAG FIX THE ZONE LAG FIX THE PVP LAG TRUST ME UR SERVERS ARE INDEED LAGGING.

  • ThatGuyMooses John Horton (@ThatGuyMooses) reported

    @playnewworld Fix Armine please I’d Ike to continue with the story line before I lv to far past needing armine

  • Nabs_Tagger Tagger (@Nabs_Tagger) reported

    @SilasRogue @playnewworld Dont think they really have - but then again; why would they need to? - it's a fault of hardware mostly. NW is just pushing it to where the hardware shows it's faults/defects (Jay says and shows as much). If those faults/defects weren't there; there'd be no issues.

  • PopTert01 PopTert (@PopTert01) reported

    @WhoaFlyingChair @playnewworld That's just bs, it takes 20mins to get kicked, but if you set up a marco to not get kicked, you're just adding to the problem. I patiently wait everytime I get kicked to join back to the server, it gives time to actually look up what you're going to do that day

  • daanxyz Daan (@daanxyz) reported

    @playnewworld Fix dungeons

  • Frrrranko Frank (@Frrrranko) reported

    @FrankKennyIV @PapaPulse @playnewworld Bro, just because you and other people are not having the issues doesn't mean it isn't bugged for some. To me and my group it took our Amrine orb as we chose to join the expedition then it left us outside the dungeon without the orb forcing us to make another for the quest.

  • MAT5ON MAT5ON (@MAT5ON) reported

    @playnewworld So you wont extend server capacity even more? Nothing will change. People play with communities they createrd in guilds they made... Why would they separate going on other servers? You're missing the point of the problem 😐

  • Lampshade100000 Rn Ls (@Lampshade100000) reported

    **** I love @playnewworld like please low server down time.

  • Wav3Senpai Wave (@Wav3Senpai) reported

    @JeffBezos @playnewworld Yeah, t'he Game is good t'he servers are dog ****, Fix them and then call It a succes duuh...

    @playnewworld Did y'all finally fix the "Time out while waiting for server to describe world" bug??

  • KairraKattus Tamsin Battershill (@KairraKattus) reported

    @playnewworld I know Americans are great at timezones but taking EU servers down at 11am for approx 4 hrs is utterly unacceptable. You have all night and you do this during peak day time? Now our login queues will be substantial because it comes up at 4pm...

  • KairraKattus Tamsin Battershill (@KairraKattus) reported

    @playnewworld also, can you do something about the fishing bots? There's so many of them now, you know about this already so a fix shouldn't be hard.

  • CringeyDad Cringey Dad Gaming (Dom Wolf) (@CringeyDad) reported

    @itsadamuk @playnewworld I'm not convinced capping FPS are 100% going to stop the issue. It seems the games engine is pulling high power levels from the graphics card, leading to them getting damaged from overheating. People who have capped FPS are still getting GPU damage from the game. I won't risk it.

  • _TheCraftsman Cameron (@_TheCraftsman) reported

    @PapaPulse @playnewworld They put out a patch yesterday which fixed it on my server. We had 2 friends stuck who couldnt even log in because they were stuck on it and they too were fixed. Maybe try again? We ran Armine twice today and the level 35 once... no issues!

  • FelixZander1996 FeralForlorn (@FelixZander1996) reported

    @playnewworld decreasing the afk timer from 25 to 20 isnt hurting afkers, it hurts those that have stuff to do in real life. instead of punishing people how about you start taking care of some of the bigger issues.

  • agentaled Aled Thomas (@agentaled) reported

    @playnewworld Now please fix the queues and “failed to login” and “toomanylogins” errors. Please and thanks.

  • infex_ infex (@infex_) reported

    A week into @playnewworld review: first few days were extremely frustrating with queues of up to 4,000 and higher for the first few days. Approximately queueing for 2-3 hours just to get into the game on top of login servers crashing, unexpected login errors which reset the q 1/x

  • mattijsdevalk Mattijs de Valk (@mattijsdevalk) reported

    @playnewworld Any update on the GPU issue? I am not touching the game before I know for sure it will not kill my 3080.
