Desync is still the single biggest issue in New World

The March patch made some improvements, but the April patch somehow lost all that progress. Desync is worse than it has ever been, over half a year past launch. Content patches may bring players back temporarily, but they won’t stay while the servers are in this state. Simply left clicking with a melee weapon - particularly noticeable with the spear as it has a large lunge - will cause your character to slide back. Snares from gravwell and ice shower are even more egregious, causing rubber banding even after using mobility skills. I have 50ms ping consistently, it’s a server/game issue that desperately needs to be addressed.

After the last patch half of my hits don’t register and I end in random positions… on a fiber connection with low lag… Can’t imagine how it is on slower connections.
