  • motylogic3 op Volts (@motylogic3) reported

    @playnewworld Aztland server (US East) has many exploiters. Also game breaking bug that gives factions territory without a war happening. 30% influence for faction quest instead of 1%. I have 15 days played which isn’t possible. This server is messed up, please fix it

  • JaviB01253134 JaviB (@JaviB01253134) reported

    @playnewworld The worst measure you can do ever, punish your base players for a issue you created, if you do that i am refunding and stop play this. Players are not the problem.

  • xchilphilx 🌊 phil フィル (@xchilphilx) reported

    @DenzelAy @CeeRM_ @playnewworld Yeah I’m really hoping we get an official statement from both studio and manufacturers. Mine was a release-day 3080 and I know there were some manufacturing issues. Still, I feel like a game shouldn’t brick hardware.

  • mina77413914 ESOisBROKENagain (@mina77413914) reported

    @TESOnline When you giving us new servers? Games unplayable again and new hardware will not fix it either! So @playnewworld fancy a new player ?

  • leeblagdon philip blagdon (@leeblagdon) reported

    are people actually playing new world with 30 series cards without issue? @playnewworld like the card burning alive kinda issues? and when will this be fixed because I'm dying to play it

  • Celtics_fan78 Rich Henderson (@Celtics_fan78) reported

    @thegunee @playnewworld A) nobodies crying. B) whoppdi ******* do for your group. My 193 member guild who have level 30+ characters some of us don't want to waste that time. C) we shouldn't have to. It's on the company we paid to provide the service not us to work around their **** up.

  • MSantosXD msaints (@MSantosXD) reported

    @playnewworld We can Ban player who paid the Game Andrés don't Want to wait 8 Hours to login after take a shower, or maybe we can Work and increase server cap, do a layering system. We better ban them so they only have to wait 2 hours. Nice joke.

  • CvBoul1 ChazBoul (@CvBoul1) reported

    @TwitchSupport… I believe I’ve found & fixed the problem. I originally only seen two boxes linking #Steam & #Twitch to @PlayNewWorld… apparently upon finishing the 2 linking’s a third option appears ACTIVATING the previous 2 linking’s! I have since Activated & will Check back.

  • iiBlakePowersii Blake (@iiBlakePowersii) reported

    @playnewworld I've got over 3 days of play time. Really in love with the game. The one thing I have to complain about (other than server queues, which I know you are fixing) is the compass stops tracking. I can't re-log to fix due to queues on my server. Any ETA on a fix?

  • OutRage87 OutRage87 (@OutRage87) reported

    @playnewworld Put your efforts in to getting everything else sorted first. We don't care about AFK'ers, fix your incompetence first, pls thx.

  • BristolSteve4 Bristol Steve (@BristolSteve4) reported

    @KoRnyRocks @playnewworld The limit on 2k isn't the issue we're discussing! It's lack of available servers at launch, and allowing multiple thousands of char to be created! 2k isn't the problem. Stop asking me to figure out the non problem.

  • SUITwearingBEAR Dominic Greenwood (@SUITwearingBEAR) reported

    @0sbos @playnewworld I found a fix…. You can animation cancel chopping a tree by back dashing using shift. This fixed it :D a man told me in chat cheers for reply Jake though. Pretty annoying bug if had to log out but easy fix so we good if happens again

  • yuuhi84 Yuuhi (@yuuhi84) reported

    @playnewworld Maybe first do something about the server capacity and don't work around it by kicking AFK players?? The issue here is not the afk but super long que becouse servers are only for 2000 people... And btw why we got Full game thats the Preview build? with only 2 new zones...

  • Fearless_Ferret Ferret (@Fearless_Ferret) reported

    @cosmiclord7 @playnewworld Resources on a server are finite, you cannot just 'increase the cap'. That would just create major lag issues and make the game unplayable for those in the game.

  • Skeechz Skeech (@Skeechz) reported

    @playnewworld Are you going to fix the dungeon lag or shall I quit the game already?

  • Lioris_13 Just call me Lio (@Lioris_13) reported

    @playnewworld Hey guys, have you worked with Steam to extend the refund policy? Really poor server issues are making it pointless to even have the game for people with jobs & families

  • g_ladia GLadia (@g_ladia) reported

    @playnewworld Fix the servers, fix the translations, we can t swim, fix the quests that doesnt appear or translation. The AFK behaviour is linked to your issue with servers. Dont blame the players who try to play your game

  • istreamsandwich IStreamSandwich - Stephen (@istreamsandwich) reported

    @playnewworld Can I suggest you add a grace period for anybody who has a disconnect so they don't have to sit in a queue. For example, if my internet cuts out, I'll be kicked and have to wait hours to get back in. A 5 minute grace period could counteract that.

  • SayKenzo Say (@SayKenzo) reported

    @playnewworld imagine not having system to fast relog to fix a bug or crash without 6h que..............................

  • AlmanaxWinch FlynnWinch (@AlmanaxWinch) reported

    @theshockcable @HartPaco @playnewworld Yeaaah but no, you didnt disconnect in 30 sec or 1min, and the blame is not for people just stoping their moove for 3 min but talk about thoses who afk for hours sometimes 4-5Hours on a wall You are obviously doing your think in to much extreme way.

  • zantex14 zantex (@zantex14) reported

    @DrSpacemanGames @Konshu @playnewworld We did. More slots on the server AND afk mitigation, one or the other doesn't fix the problem, you need to do both. Demand is too high, kicking people off the highway doesn't reduce demand for the highway, they just show back up and requeue.

  • MorganJ54498103 Morgan Johnson (@MorganJ54498103) reported

    @playnewworld The Depths dungeon is literally unplayable right now and what makes it even worse is its tied to a main story mission! You literally cant progress past it due to server lag and it requiring 5 people who also just lag out. When will this be addressed?

  • MendoXen_Afa MendoXen (@MendoXen_Afa) reported

    @zlatkoty @playnewworld I dont think adding a lot more capacity without making the actual map bigger would bring other annoying issues the game. We are already fighting for materials as it is. In my opinion that is a reason why they dont want to increase the cap too much.

  • Zeus_dv Charl Engelbrecht ♚ (@Zeus_dv) reported

    @ayyyjono @playnewworld Try a program called Parsec, its like teamviewer but just has lower input lag :)

  • Fearless_Ferret Ferret (@Fearless_Ferret) reported

    @WhoaFlyingChair @playnewworld The queue times are stupid BECAUSE of AFK timeout ********. Server cap increase would make the game unplayable due to major lag, we already see some of this in chat lag now.

  • MSantosXD msaints (@MSantosXD) reported

    @playnewworld We can Ban player who paid the Game and don't want to wait 8 Hours to login after take a shower, or maybe we can Work and increase server cap, do a layering system, or some gamedev work. We better ban them so they only have to wait 2 hours. Nice joke.

  • Truzen Thomas Helms (@Truzen) reported

    @playnewworld I don't play New World, so this is just a comment from the outside, looking in, but what's the difficulty in increasing servers/server caps? Also, didn't @amazongames see the sales numbers and prep for this? It seems like AFK mitigation is fixing a problem of their own creation.

  • Theopt_ Cristiano ‘Theopt’ Marques (@Theopt_) reported

    @365Jerry @EllohimeTwitch @playnewworld Some people play CS non stop and it’s always the same content :) if you just want to craft or PvP I see no issue. If you want to do PvE yeah I agree

  • joerose1010 Joe Rose (@joerose1010) reported

    @playnewworld You are simply putting a band aid on the problem. Sure, punish players that try and cheat AFK. But the real problem is 2-4 hour wait just to get in and play. Who the hell has time for that? Fix the REAL problem. Adding more servers wont help those that already have capacity.

  • Wardawg_ Tim 💯😎 (@Wardawg_) reported

    @brigi093 @playnewworld It's already lag fest. I have a 11ms connection with the server and the game adds 40 to it.
