Honestly, just look at the state of the forums, it’s total and utter chaos.
They couldn’t close all the rando threads if they had to.
New World … has jumped the shark!

New World: Zombie Apocalypse
It’s an open-world PvP survival game.
haahahaha. I’m really board from new world and I’m not fan of any other game atm so watching netflix and waiting for something worth to play.
but this Zombie game is not worth it
If you remember the old classics, the new Disciples: Liberation is pretty good.
I pull it back they said it distoryed by bugs and failed 
I had high hopes and kept backing up the devs hoping just a few patches would sort it.
After the shitshow of this latest patch I’ve lost all faith. I uninstalled it this morning.
Now I’m just here out of habit and to watch the bomfire burn.

I’m hoping the patch will be next Wednesday.
Yes. But it’s a perspective thing. A lot of people just don’t understand the scale of what they are doing. One land mass with no loading between zones and very few instances, that can support up to 2000 players in either PvP or PvE, with hundreds of interconnected systems managing millions of entities in real time. Stuff is going to break. Changes are going to have unintended consequences.
No QA department, PTR or automated test system can compare to the cumulative hundreds of thousands of hours that players are going put in along with all the combinations of actions they perform. Not to mention the subset of the population totally dedicated breaking the game for personal gain.
The devs are absolutely busting their asses. But iteration time will always be too slow for players. By the time changes get in, the outrage has moved on to something new and the fix seems insignificant or goes entirely unnoticed. It’s rough spot for them.
As long as the patches and content keep coming, I can keep confidence they are dedicated to improving the experience. When bugs stopped getting fixed, and when the only new content is cash-shop items…that’s when I will know they are done.
Yes, i trust them. The mistakes don’t matter. What matters is that they are fixing them. Same for most companies, i am an HVAC tech, the most important thing in an install is that they will have me to service their unit no matter what the installers get wrong. The day the game is abandoned, then all trust is out the door, along with with the game.
I didn’t buy a masterclass in game development. I purchased a product that is not as advertised.

They already shown they do not listen to player feedback, and are pig headed.
So honestly, I do not.
Yo same
I still have Hope the game will and can shine, but I only trust ags to mess things up. Seems we need to get used to constant game-breaking bugs for all of the remainder life of New World.
Does anyone trust AGS at this point?
I have great faith, they could manage to get the car back on track, if they found the courage to take a brake, make afull stop, fix all, that can be fixed and release a working peace of art sometime early next year. The game might be worth it.
I have currently many doubts, they will break free of this “replace one bug with two others”-circle. Would I preorder another AGS title? Surely not. They cancelled a bunch of games in development and now delivered this game in a state where other games in beta are more stable.

What adverting and which bit was misleading?
The part that said it was a functioning and release-ready MMO. When large swaths of your game have to be repeatedly disabled because of bugs, it kind of proves you lied about the game state. If it had been advertised as an early access or beta, it would be different.
The game was clearly not ready for launch when all they have been doing is bug fixes and balance fixes for a whole month. The only thing they have added was server transfer and this recent patch
Interesting. We can explore, kill mobs, loot, craft, gather, trade and kill players. All of those systems work. They have bugs affecting certain parts (some items can’t be crafted, some items can’t be traded, some skills aren’t working correctly). There, in all likelihood, will always be some bug or another in each system.
There has also never been such thing as “release-ready MMO”. Ever. Any definition you could come up with for what that even means would be an unrealistic expectation.
