In a state of emergency re:PvP

The funny thing is this didnt just start.

People have been abusing anything they can to win since launch with basically no reprocussions.

People really have no idea how many people duped and decked out alts and have just absolutely ruined this game for hundreds of thousands of people.

Ait only way to fix it is if someone posts a video showing a detailed description of how to do it. Time to make it widespread. If I knew how I’d make the video right now.

The real funny thing is, that people today convince themselves that those exploits of the past. Did not pave the way for players and whole companies to snowball the New World PvP scene for years to come.

It’s like people no longer understand causality.

Hopefully someone lets you know. If I did I would tell you. I’ll try to find out also. This has to be stopped or the game will die very quick

Theyll do mental gymnastics and involve company strategies of trying to convince the playerbase that they didnt mean anything so it can continue, too.

Its all been based on RMT and Im serious when I say the New World iceberg is gonna involve jailtime when it all comes crashing down, if it ever does.

Yeah AGS have literally stated on several occasion they wish people wouldnt release info like this publically because when they do AGS are forced to prioritize it right away instead of doing it later… thats such a yikes.

The game won’t completely die. But the PvP scene in New World will deteriorate even further. Till it’s actually mandatory to cheat to compete.

Just like it was in APB back in the day. The Dev team of that MMO had to actually remake and relaunch that game. And didn’t bounce back from the results of the Cheaters’ Haven that game was.

It has always been mandatory to cheat to compete in territory wars. Thats the reason I stopped doing wars entirely.

It was so frustrating. You can never trust anything in this game, especially in the big 100 person battles like that. With there being hundreds of various exploits at any given time, there will always be cheaters.

Whoa whoa there you have no proof of this and your observations are clearly not based on reality… to paraphrase what will be the likely response to this statement.

But ye ppl who want to say that the snowball and exploits that existsed since and before launch have largely been eradicated or no longer have an effect on the game. KEK

But also don’t go branding legacy players negatively, this exploit was clearly known and brought to light by fresh start players returning to the game after 9+ mos of quitting it.

:rofl:

I mean, you’re right.

You right the reality is those exploits, dupes and continous soft stance on RNG and Bots has no impact on the long term health of the games core functions in terms of territory control and economy.

Yup we should definitely not trust our eyes.

Keep calm and carry on, game is doing just fine xD.

It’s a big world. Your eyes only see so much.

I completely agree, this bug should a HIGH priority fix when the devs get back. Its not just affecting OPRs and 3v3s but also territory wars. I’ve been a part of and have friends who have been in recent ā€œfarmā€ wars where either the defending or attacking company uses this exploit to dominate the other company.

I cannot express enough how helpless this exploit makes players feel. When you spend thousands of hours to get your character the best equipment, so you’re able to compete in wars just to have all of that hard work negated by a one-shot exploit.

I have close to 4k hours played in this game and I’ve never thought about playing anything else, until now.

Please AGS, prioritize fixing combat bugs, there just isn’t enough PVE and endgame things to keep players interested.

@Luxendra please message me and I’ll explain how the bug is activated.

This has been widespread for a few days now, and I will have to agree with Jiggy on this one.

If I don’t hear from AGS soon - I may just create a tutorial on how to do this to at least level the playing field? Idk feels like a bad move either way but this is unacceptable to just not address the issue until the breaking point. I feel like we’re past that breaking point too

Don’t queue for OPR’s right now, it’s not a fun experience

I knew something is not right xD

my understanding is top pvp companies have been using it for 3 months, ive heard rumors 2 weeks ago. and finally confirmed 3 days ago.

Wishful thinking. AGS basically confirmed with the roadmap that they’re dropping support for PvP. What we have now is what we’ll have for the next 12 months.

A surprising choice given the action combat PvP is the only thing separating NW from other games. Maybe there’s just a bigger market for PvE people wanting to run Lazarus every day for months on end though.

I’m guessing the reason so many people are moving over to PvE is because there is always some exploit to be abused in PvP. PvP has come down to exploit, or don’t play it at all.
