  • ZykeBlaze ⓈⓉⒺⒶⓀ! (@ZykeBlaze) reported

    @playnewworld Hey I am experiencing an issue "Login blocked due to suspicious software etc.." All i did was install the update.

  • MrDrkri MrDrkri (@MrDrkri) reported

    @playnewworld playing the game and the game crashes from lag. Now I am in a queue of 208 and have to wait 40 mins to get back in on a Thursday night. Why? #notfun

  • Dave72770173 Dave Is Here Right Now Man (@Dave72770173) reported

    @playnewworld The issue is your game

  • chdall chris dall (@chdall) reported

    @playnewworld Cue's Missing guild broken storage how about fixing that first

  • jokidre jokidre 🍥 (@jokidre) reported

    @OGDale_ @playnewworld Honestly, they sold more than 1M copies of the game, they should. They are not the unique developers patching MMOs in the industry and they are not the smallest team, but they are the ones who had + problems in every single update. Don’t justify saying that it’s just impossible.

  • WahlSteve Steve Wahl (@WahlSteve) reported

    @playnewworld Okay, now can you please unlock the locked servers so people can finish transferring.. please? Hell at least respond and let people know what the plan is instead of completely ghosting the issue.. you guys gave tokens and then locked certain servers after some people moved...

  • hastie_zach Zach Hastie (@hastie_zach) reported

    @playnewworld No update on the issue still 🤡

  • uuuuunai Unai (@uuuuunai) reported

    @4ColorCrack @ShitterGeek @playnewworld It will be broken anyways

  • CELLX23 CellX23 (@CELLX23) reported

    @playnewworld would love to play today but the server I am in keeps giving me an error. smh

  • OGDale_ OGDale (@OGDale_) reported

    @jokidre @playnewworld No matter how big your company is and how many people test the game, updates will always cause an issue in some way. Unless a patch goes into beta first for hundreds of thousands of people to test before twice or more of that plays on it, it's impossible to cover every scenario

  • FreshDunceOAir Micha Janssen (@FreshDunceOAir) reported

    @playnewworld dead game is dead because AGS and the production team never delivered and are chasing their own problems Pls just give up. At this point you are just losing money and not fixing anything for us original people to comeback. It failed open your eyes :)

  • KDKD8080 Katy (@KDKD8080) reported

    @GiacomiEdu @playnewworld If you're seeing the 'testing' text on your equipped items, we are looking into it. Return to Main Menu resolves this, it should only happen on first login. If after relog the issue persists, let us know in the forums.

  • PropersoX PropersoXD (@PropersoX) reported

    @OuchPotato1 @playnewworld are u dumb? they delayed the update to fix a bug and now theyre ready. legit all ur replies to new world tweets are negative, go outside for once

  • Game_Dev_Carto Carto (@Game_Dev_Carto) reported

    @GAONA_M1LGR4U @playnewworld game doesn't need mounts. you can teleport for next to nothing and with a house you can always get back to a hub without an issue. game needs content, this patch has content.

  • Kaicho20 IraLee ✨ Write your own future (@Kaicho20) reported

    @playnewworld ... mouse leaving the FULLSCREEN window is beyond annoying this patch. please fix.

  • justindamnlewis Justin Lewis (@justindamnlewis) reported

    @playnewworld Any thought to the idea of making the heavy attack into a hold for auto heavy? It would fix some minor issues with dps?

  • Dfav14 Dylan Favretto (@Dfav14) reported

    @playnewworld I am having an issue with these server tokens as well. I had just transferred recently today because the original server i was in had 70 players on it. Dead. I wanted to transfer to Orun to play with friends but it was closed. After a long conversation with Amazon.

  • Broscott321 Scott (@Broscott321) reported

  • Redmagex 🇨🇦RedMageX🇨🇦 (@Redmagex) reported

    @playnewworld Hey devs! Any ETA on how long it'll take to fix the "New Initiate, Old Order" quest? It's completely broken and preventing people from continuing the MSQ. Two bug reports are already filed.

  • JoshDanger304 Josh Danger (@JoshDanger304) reported

    @Bobanzy @jokidre @playnewworld There's no winning. Push out the update with a bug, people will cry. Put the update on hold to fix the bug, people will cry.

  • ArsheeTv ArsheeTV (@ArsheeTv) reported

    Please turn off 1 hour penalties from OPR until the current "Lag Detected" Issue have been addressed. A lot of our boi's are getting penalties for something they have no control over. Ty @playnewworld #NewWorld

  • lord999xa Richard (@lord999xa) reported

    @playnewworld Really? I already was in a nightmare beyond evil and death from the cheats, bugs, and support problems that plagued this game.

  • MAJ0RGG MAJ0R GG (@MAJ0RGG) reported

    @playnewworld There is a bug in the new update that requires me to pickup all of my chests and replace them down for my storage to properly work after each login.

  • BaconofWar Brian (@BaconofWar) reported

    @playnewworld your new patch and auto ban is broke. I patched, logged in, started getting resources, received a message saying something about suspicious software. Within 2 minutes of getting the error I was permabanned without any reason?

  • MakeBaadChoices MakeBadChoices (@MakeBaadChoices) reported

    BREAKING: AGS has had "waves of terminations due to errors" as stated by devs on the New World forums. No update on the update of the update @playnewworld

  • shagkie Unknown (@shagkie) reported

  • AnthemBurger SF Escapee (@AnthemBurger) reported

    @VicariousMale @playnewworld I tried again last night, still won't load. Get the same error as before. Starting a new character is an option I hadn't considered. I'll give it a try tonight.
