Don’t forget to check the Known Issues List to see if your issue is currently being worked on by the dev team.
We also have existing workaround for some issues that you can find here:
What is your character name in New World: NakedSeamus
What server/world did you experience your issue on: US East Minda
Describe the issue you are experiencing: Players of the opposing army were able to glitch through the walls of the attackers’ war camp and kill them while they were respawning (Before they even had control of their character).
Is this a bug or an exploit: Exploit
(if a bug) How did the issue effect your gameplay: Made an already difficult to fight war on the offensive almost impossible as there was no place to regroup and no way to defend ourselves against people attacking us while all we could see was loading screen.
(if a bug) Were you able to recover from the issue: No.
What are the steps to reproduce the issue as you experienced: Belly crawl into the wall adjacent to the gates of the attacking war camp for the Restless Shore fort. Looks like all they had to do was crawl.
Winning and losing aside, fair play is fair play, cheating is cheating. This was meant to be a training war where we got a lot of new 60s some experience in War. So they could see where they could improve as players and as a team. Now imagine spending that war bouncing from loading screen to respawning to loading screen to respawning like some of our army did. I can’t take your defense of this seriously.
That definitely doesn’t sound fun, but neither does dying the second any of you try to leave the camp if they hadn’t infiltrated it. Once you’ve been penned up like that it’s over. It’s either a loading screen inside the camp or teleport lag leaving the camp; either way you’re going to be stunlocked and killed in 2 seconds before you can react.
The problem is that the game doesn’t provide any way for the defenders to end the war early when it is a clear cut victory for them. The game should allow them to legitimately bust down your gates and burn down the tent when they are dominating that hard. Forcing the match to go for the full 30 minutes is just demoralizing.
While that might be more fun, a solution that implies that they only cheated because they were bored implies pretty weak convictions as far as fairplay is concerned. Either way, the main issue is that people can glitch through walls that they shouldn’t be able to pass through, and that needs to be fixed as we can’t trust people not to take advantage of it (as seen in the video).
