Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • S0SIeepy Sleepless (@S0SIeepy) reported

    @KripplerTV @Gothalion @playnewworld “Lost fair and square” ah yes, because not being able to track an enemy because it turns into a slide show sim and WATCHING people abuse the crouch glitch is definitely, “ fair and square”.

  • misschair Miss Chair / Charity N (@misschair) reported

    @_Charlie86_ @Gothalion @playnewworld There's been exploits since the beginning, and every "fix" has just broken the game more

  • DarrkDucky Seth Bogoniewski (@DarrkDucky) reported

    @playnewworld How hard is it to make your game NOT lag 100% of the time when more than 5 people are in an area? why even add outpost rush back when its so unplayable

  • _Charlie86_ Charlie (@_Charlie86_) reported

    @redins_ @Gothalion @playnewworld that sucks, I was looking forward to playing this once they nipped the gpu issue bug. dang.

  • diontravolta Dionathan 🇮🇩 (@diontravolta) reported

    @playnewworld FIX SERVERS TRANSFERS PLEASEeeeeeeeee

  • MoOdsTyLe MoOdY (@MoOdsTyLe) reported

    @raufbeyy @playnewworld same issue and I have 0 active trades.

  • BasemntD2 Bradley (@BasemntD2) reported

    @KyleThatKyle @Gothalion @playnewworld Same here. I'm at level 40 and put the game down over the weekend. What's the point of continuing if it's broken.

  • Gothalion Gothalion (@Gothalion) reported

    @AlanBar50275963 @KripplerTV @playnewworld There's no point man. We fought yellow back in BW the other night. Won the war of lag, and we didn't gloat. We said "that sucked". And it sucked this time too. Its broken and not worth playing.

  • FrenzyNW Frenzy on New World 🛠️ (@FrenzyNW) reported

    @Gothalion @playnewworld This isnt okay, @playnewworld .. Like H O L Y, at the very least disable wars; or bring servers down. Jesus.

  • golden6irl Golden6irl (@golden6irl) reported

    @playnewworld turn off wars and fix all the bugs that keep popping up before everyone loses their territory cause of it! My faction on my server has lost 3 territories to invincibility bug and aoe spam already and now there’s more bugs that need patched?!

  • Deadre_ Deadre_ #BLM #FreePalestine (@Deadre_) reported

    @KripplerTV @Gothalion @playnewworld The vod shows a war riddled with bullshit problems. It's not fun. It's fundamentally broken.

  • NazorinTwitch Nazorin (@NazorinTwitch) reported

    @playnewworld Yup some of the company I am in is having this issue me too😭😭

  • iCaliGrown Cali (@iCaliGrown) reported

    @lisuk94 @playnewworld Dnt be part of the problem and ignore these terrible game design decisions. I remember a time when you got a full game upon release. This can happen again but not if we turn a blind eye to it.

  • DrinkBleach6 corndog_is_amazing (@DrinkBleach6) reported

    @raufbeyy @Fumetsu_no_ @playnewworld Happened to my buddy as well lmk if you find out how to fix it but it sounds like it’s yet another bug they need to fix before you can transfer

  • SoujiroTech Felurian (@SoujiroTech) reported

    @playnewworld There are new Bugs regarding healer and mage shooting like a machine gun. Plz fix

  • MitsuShow Mitsu (@MitsuShow) reported

    @playnewworld This patch has completely and unequivocally broken the game, beyond repair for at least the next six months given the current patch cadence. So, the perception here is you're rewarding cheaters and punishing fair players. I don't believe that, but perception is *everything.*

  • Thee_Tater Tater. (@Thee_Tater) reported

    @raufbeyy @playnewworld Yep. Same issue.

  • TheKatonen Katonen (@TheKatonen) reported

    @KingRichard @Gothalion @playnewworld FFXIV is a perfect example for ALL Developers. It’s ok to admit you messed up and need to start over or fix things. I respect Square so much more because of them taking FFXIV down and making the game players deserved.

  • MitsuShow Mitsu (@MitsuShow) reported

    @playnewworld So put this in perspective: The largest part of your game is fundamentally unplayable and broken for people who play the game legitimately. Exploiters are now being rewarded for their exploitation of broken mechanics in game with land and gold. THIS. IS. WRONG.

  • Hashield HAns (@Hashield) reported

    @playnewworld after the last update ... crash !!!! ... FATAL ERROR!

  • vPH0ENIXv Matthew Lindsey (@vPH0ENIXv) reported

    @Triple_Gz1 @playnewworld Please keep grinding and helping out the company! I wish the game wasn’t broken. I think everyone understands if you stop playing as well; it would just suck

  • Saint_Sociopath Cyberpop Ronin (@Saint_Sociopath) reported

    @Spongylul @playnewworld Do you happen to live in Cutlass? They're having issues there that ik for sure, but if not, this is absolutely insane. My house was fine after receiving that buggy *** notice. Best of luck with it, and hopefully they'll have you guys sorted too.

  • Casperite2 Casperite (@Casperite2) reported

    @Meko_Ibuki @Gothalion @playnewworld What silence? Theyve acknowledged the issues and are working on getting the fix out. Would you rather them come here and chat all day than get work done?

  • Gothalion Gothalion (@Gothalion) reported

    @redins_ @KripplerTV @playnewworld The game is inarguably broken and anyone who thinks any W means anything is delusional

  • xJamtasticxtv xJAMTASTICx (@xJamtasticxtv) reported

    so uh just curious @playnewworld when are you gonna shut down servers and fix your game. All main core mechanics are absolutely busted and sadly your game is rewarding Exploits instead of skill. Truly if your worry is you can't shut down wars shut down the game plz.

  • dasgrischa Das Grischa (@dasgrischa) reported

    @MarkYetter @playnewworld really great game, but every NPC/Mob looks the same and the quests are also the same in every city, so the grind to lv60 is not boring but way too generic. It is one of the issues Guild Wars 1 had, back in the days, but GW1 is 16 years old...

  • I2ams 12am (@I2ams) reported

    @playnewworld Do we have an ETA on the fix ?

  • StillJustBarra バリ (@StillJustBarra) reported

    @stevenpotts24 @playnewworld It really is, constantly releasing patches with more and more issues will drive more people away who'll never come back.

  • phkgmetomoon peter (@phkgmetomoon) reported

    @playnewworld Any updates to why outpost is not working or was this just a cash grab game?

  • S3Binabed 𝗦𝟯 (@S3Binabed) reported

    @playnewworld You know what you’re not aware of ? Wasting my 2 keys for dynasty dungeons twice because the game just wanted to crash out of no where and I still can’t finish my quests because it crashed how am I supposed to do any dungeons when it keeps crashing after 2 hours of waiting.
