thing is..new mmos are not social anymore..as a old mmo player..back in a days..when you log in and say hi to guild chat..allmost everyone say hi back,most of the guild things was talked in chat..noone love to logg and see like 30 ppl online in guild and for like 1 hr noone speak a word..i know even with pc players that happens alot since most of ppl using discord..but with console players..guild chat will be very very dead

Theres no content in October. OPR is only of the only replayable content in the game and we still dont get a map which would take an intern 2 weeks to make with existing assets?

I cant even claim the mount, my store tab won't open.

"No new content" followed by "Don't forget the super cool preorder package that's really just a wolf mount skin". GGs.

Wait so base game players get the coop update as well just not the updates with the dlcs in mind?

No content till October, not even a season? If I leave, I leave, a lot of people i know left before "Angry Earth" and have not come back as they feel like they "can't catch up" or that it's too hard to catch up. I don't think the PTR will be enough to keep me till October but who knows. I also think that unless I see concrete stuff they are fixing for when October comes it probably won't be enough to keep me playing when there are so many new games coming out to try.

I'm just happy that they were honest with us this time round. Now we can at least forget about NW until Oct and enjoy some other titles in-between. I'll definitely be giving it another go in Oct and hope that the expansion goes on sale between now and then. I might even consider rerolling on a fresh start server to get that new MMO experience.

Will console players be able to join the existing servers? Or will they be fresh start only? Really shitty if I have to do this grind all over again just to play on a server that has other players on it.

The reworked the MSQ how many times now? This is the first thing they should have had ready on launch.

Not having played the game yet, I think I will start looking for sales to pick up the base game and expansion... but I'll probably wait until October to actually play it. With them saying that there will be further controller optimizations, I think that will be the ideal time for me to get into the game as an exclusive controller player.

This game needs to go on Discount, I want to play but not for $40 plus expansion cost.

So is the MSQ gonna have cutscene like ffxiv? That be sick

Wait, so Cross-Platform is in correct? PC can play with consoles?

I am primarily a PvP player. I am not as excited about the Free For All area as I would have been changes to races, 3v3, and new OPR maps or changes to war. That being said I am most excited for the updates to make playing better (bug fixes, etc). However, the past patches shows there is generally not a net positive for fixes. Granted this update is free, so I’ll still check it out.

I’ve played 1k+ hours in new world and am mainly a solo player. I love the idea of solo play but I just don’t trust the dev team anymore. WoW is coming out with solo focus options, I’ll be playing that instead

Wed need a massive Expansion and a reason to want to come back to a fresh start event. Im not sure its possible at this point which sucks some of the best times ive had gaming were early on in NW

Not getting anything u til October does suck ! But if I’m being honest then saying we will “experience a lot of performance changes” noticing they are going down the route of release. Trying to squash next to all of the bugs is exiting. This is by far the closest it’s ever been to a release… I hope there is something positive that comes from this.

i love the solo player love, I take back my wrath. I'll put it in the secret bottle for later just in case

They promised a Roadmap in June, which was already delayed from May, saying they "take their commitment serious" and now they're saying they're releasing the Roadmap after the update in October. They lied to their entire community with a straight face. So If you're still believing anything they promise after this, you're just massively delusional. They will never change.

I returned to the game a week before all this news. Excellent time for me to catch up with everyone else I guess.

What is coming for existing players in Oct is only the pvp island, which people will get bored in 2 weeks. They making us farm all thr dame gear 725, that it. Maybe I get back next year.

3 characters 4?

Pretty good news, will probably go back in NW after the relaunch.

Can someone explain what cross-progressive is?

to me as soon as amazon leadership choose to start finally making lotr mmo; amazon leadership should have immediately opened up another studio for new world. it seems like they waited too long to do so. I could be wrong but to me that is a huge issue or should have hired more people by doubling the studio employees for doing two games at once.

Okay I'm hooked lol

Im gonna play turtle wow till this update drops tbh

Ff literally asked their player base if we make a melee DPS is that cool and if so what should it be like? Everyone yelled dual wield/Kirito sao fantasy and they said ok thats what we will make. Listening is hard.

Swimming was a joke at them, they thoughr it was something we wanted

elden ring dlc, and wukong will carry me

for months it's been wait for june, now june comes and there's nothing happening for months, basically nothing substantial will be added to the game for a full 12 months immediately following a paid DLC... kinda pathetic tbh

I know we don’t really have faith in AGS making this work, but when you look at FF14 at launch vs today…HUGE difference and now it’s easily top 3 MMOs player base, content etc. Flip a coin I guess. It’s either gunna be real bad, or it could change the game forever.

let's be frank they made a beta version of new world with bugs sold it to pc players and now after they have fixed all of the main gameplay and end game problems there releasing it on console. I feel like new world is finally coming out of beta and we are getting a full game at launch. who new they would milk the pc players to more or less be testers for a console release but hear we are.

I really love this game and I think it shows balls of steel to give this DEV update.

"It's in the sense of an ACTUAL abandonment, that's how it FEELS, it feels like we didn't get TALKED TO at all." 😂 Lawdy lawdy, I'm gettin' the vapors. It's like Gone With The Wind, Scarlett pining for Ashley.

All this "talk" by the devs. I am a person of the Latin saying "Acta non verba", means "Actions NOT words". Too many people talk the talk. Not to mention we've the play base have had to come together and complain and nag and finally said F it for the devs to FINALLY talk to us pc users... talk about sheeze...

Just park the game, wait until the october release, get on fresh start, play along and have fun with the new console players. Thats it. I know a lot of you are mad, but this was the right decision. They need to focus on this console launch and neglect PC players a bit. Cuz without the new console players, the game would die. It would. Period. And if the console launch will be a disaster, then it will happen. But if they succeed with it, then you will play New World for many-many years after this. Simple as that. No content till October? Boohoo. Who cares. I will give them a last chance, start fresh and play with the console peeps. The cross-world (+ cross platform) machmaking will be cool. The game will be in a better state. All they need to do at this point is to have a great console launch, revive the game and come up with a omegakiller 2025 roadmap. Until then, go play something else or leave your dark room a bit, your body will thank you. Oh and dont forget, the game even in its current state has content for a new player easily for hundreds of hours. Which means they will have time to put out their 2025 updates without chasing away the new players. Fingers crossed.

Wish they had just admitted to us last year that all their effort was going to console. It would have sucked but at least it would have been honest and we wouldn’t have gotten a bunch of false promises, and broken content.

I played New World on my PC always liked it but wanted to just kick back on my couch and play it on my PS. Now I can. So I'm cool with it.

1. Put the DLC on sale 2. Stop reskining zones and make them new ones Otherwise everything's good

Seems that now the describe with words the trailer for no new contet world update. .they clear say that till october nothing gonna change and we all pc players know that october is not an pve pvp content update . Haha the troll us or the dont have any connection with us or reality for games situation. If they are satisfied with 300 average player on every server . (With botsss) . No no no nonsense situation from them. They just want money . Im on mmorpg genre since 2003 . This ""thing''' is nonsense . Get tfo 🎉

Looking good prime ! Fresh!

lol what I heard is not going to play for 2 years sucks but at least it what it is see ya new world

stopped playing 5 months

Same old same old

I have a question: PS5 console gameplay is like tab-targeting especially for the ranged weapons. AGS has mentioned that console players can join any existing PC servers to play with PC players even at open world, OPR, everywhere. Thus, how thy are going to balance between PC and console players for ranged weapons mostly because one is for truly action aim to shoot normal and skills while console ranged weapons will just tab-targeting you like aimbot. Musket is ruined by aimbot where AGS does not ban illegal aimbot users instead they ruined musket so much, even now... musket is now a closed range weapon instead of long range as the bullet falls down and no zoom and slower than arrows lol with no so good perks and active and passive skills comparing to bow weapon etc etc. For the new PVP zone thy introduce, some people already cries about musket but I can say that musket is not so great in medium range and long range to hit targets to give lots of damage so even 5-10 musket cannot win against full premade group to counter them nicely. Most important part is that PRE-MADE groups and ZERG Dominating Territory owning guilds to gang everyone to get all contents again, so how thy are going to solve these??? At the end, nothing has changed unfortunately :(((

We will have 0 more players. They all will go to new fresh servers.

Same so called similar contents in INSTANCED Zones with limited people (which players will play with their friends only again or SOLO themself) for +2.5 years at every no big incoming patch... We want open world pvp and pve content, and making small and medium sized companies meaningful and let %98 of players to experience the fortress siege, and fix the musket to make it a ranged weapon instead of a closed range weapon... There are tons of problems thy need to fix and thy need to increase server capacity more for more players. Make a single EU server!!! I will never pay for server transfer anymore, no point, EU has 2.5k active players most of the time as a total of 3 servers lol... New and returning players cannot fight against old players and RMT players, and thy cannot gear up because noone to find to do grind artifacts, elite mobs etc or chest runs or portals etc, the game is so dead in EU region... We want naval combat, more sandbox elements, farming, trade runs, building your own house or guild outpost or any new ideas but the problem is that THY DON'T ADD ANYTHING NEW...

I really have no sympathy here. Why are we surprised this game is a disaster? It's been this way since the original pivot in 2018 from full pvp to a halfassed experience we got today.

Is New World worth playing? HARD NO. Worst devs of all MMOs I've experienced so far and I've played many...

Maybe people should just stop being so negative and stop complaining and go play a different game. Don’t play New World, that simple.

Would be awesome if people would just quit and forget about this disaster of a game

fan boi alert games ded come over to reailty already !
