How can we believe the future is bright when things like that are possible in the game?

Depends on whose shooting you, I tend to shoot someone once and watch them panic triple dodgeroll and then they die after because no stamina. And I have over 20,000 hours in FPS so Aiming is second nature to me. I’ve also developed muscle memory with 3 different DPI sensitivities that allow me to constantly adjust on the fly. Simply comparing New world movement to an FPS Title such as Apex Legends (having reached Predator) BR FPS vs MMO - it really isn’t that hard to kill players when you’re up against a majority of casuals.

Bruh can someone show how to set up low poly like this? This dudes game is running butter smooth with almost no desync - I haven’t even been able to play since the Feb patch even with the lowest graphics settings because of the insane amount of desync and frame drops. I have a decent rig that was fine before Feb patch but I just want to be able to play again…

Me too, working on that during lunch, to see if the desync is client based or server based. Pretty sure it’s client based.

Good musket users like any other good weapon user. Is aware of their enemies ability’s and work to counter them. If your shooting a light armor target after the first hit you expect them to pop a potion then dodge roll. Fire at them after the dodge roll tends to force them to dodge roll again. Players are creatures of habit so if they are zig zaging watch them for a few seconds still you get the pattern down and shoot them right after the switchback of their zag.

That does not mean they are cheating they are just using good tactic’s.

Completely agree, 1300+ Hours in New World and I have yet to face a “cheater” or so they call it. I’ve versed against players that people have “accused” of cheating and yet when I fight them Musket v Musket they just turn out to be good players that have good aim, which can still be dodged regardless - if you have mastered the timing of when and then constantly pressure them as well so they don’t have the luxury to play as confident as they normally would, then you can come up on top.

This post is sad. There are plenty of musket users cheating with aimbots. But instead posts like these cause people to write off those concerns.

Mind you there a lot of people that will try to cheat in the game. With 2k hours played I have marked a few aimbots. I was just pointing out that just because you can hit someone who is actively trying evade you does not mean the person is a aim bot. Skill and luck does come into play.

Check out ice spike cam vol 5 on youtube.

i wouldnt say its sad.

aimbots is one thing

lowering visuals to gain FPS is another

going through a 3rd party program to further remove visuals far beyond what the game devs intended to gain additional benefits is another thing entirely.

if this mode was available through the game then this is a non issue but thats not what they did is it.

True. Although this game should have been fixed a long time ago, I do feel the frustration from other people tbh. Coming back there still other issues that make me roll my eyes.

if it could it would of been done.

its clear there is a tangled spiderweb of sadness behind newworld and i have no idea if its truly fixable with the amount of people that work at AGS

though if im reading the rumors correctly, hopefully we will get some new management that can properly deal with this crap.

I’m hoping too that the new management will make things better. I do still have hope for this game. Also the update coming up looks promising, and love that our chest will be doubled. And don’t forget the new T4housing lol.

literally the top thing i care about right now.

iv been waiting to upgrade.

ty homie I also found this YT link for how to set it up:

Apparently, if you follow the guide someone posted over here - you do not just remove visuals you also make it harder for you to see “spells” which can be considered a “disadvantage”

So a real question: have you tested the settings yourself and can you even see a Gravwell? Because from what I can see (some effects are so subtle that you might just end up dying because you turned the settings down for extra fps = seems like a tradeoff than an advantage)

But then again if you see fit that players are penalized for adjusting their graphics settings through a third-party program that’s literally associated and is officially with the Graphics Card being used (hardware) then it is no different from penalizing players for having high-end PCs.

i aint risking a ban on my account man.

and i have no desire to gain whatever advantage for this low stakes game.

Yes but this is not against ToS lmao, this is no different than adjusting your graphics settings via nvidia control panel??? Nvidia inspector is literally the same as the nvidia control panel but with more detailed settings that can be adjusted and cannot be seen as against any Game’s ToS because it is NOT the game files being modified it is your Graphic’s settings.

you are absolutely sure that this isn’t against the TOS or do you believe its not against tos because its not providing enough of an advantage.

and while its not modifying anything it is blocking the normal functions and changing how things render using what is a 3rd party program.

mind you that’s the risk im still not willing to take. not without a direct confirmation from AGS that it wont be retaliated against.

even then i have no desire to deep fry my graphics.

How about you find an existing game that bans its players for changing its “graphics” settings?
Mind you it doesn’t matter if it gives an advantage or disadvantage - the main thing that most games have against what’s bannable or not in these circumstances is whether it “modifies game files” and you are 100% NOT modifying any game file by doing any of this. You are in your absolute free will, to adjust your graphics settings to however you want

I don’t care if some forum crying turd thinks it gives an advantage, I OWN my graphics card not them, they don’t get to tell me if I can play my settings on Ultra or on Low
