Its time to talk about free DLC.(Will you pay for the first expansion?)

I kept hearing about this Brimstone Sands area that is super awesome but the current foundation of the game really needs so many more fixes before adding even more content on top of it.

The game is being improved at least and i am willing to keep playing it even at the casual level if the real life might not allow for more.

Before discussing a new DLC or whatever, can we get fixes for the current version of the game instead?
Sounds like a better use of resources.

I really hope they don’t plan to introduce any kind of paid content, dlc expansion or monthly payment.
The game and playerbase is thin enough already, adding an expansion would divide the playerbase even further, that would be a horrible decision imo.

they should have made monthly payment from the beginning
not that many players at the beginning → no 20h queues, no server meges needed now, montly incoming to keep the game running

I do not expect free expansions in NW. This is always like that in B2P.

Free expansions usually comes in F2P games , because their business model is getting all the money from shady p2win products being hidden behind ‘all content being available for free’.

just to answer the topic question:

definitely no

I’m not quite willing to spend more money on NW but time will tell. I’m hopeful the base game improves in the coming months.

lol stop being poor

I would only pay for an expansion if the content was good.

Good as in variety and story.

  • Not 100 more quests of kill/loot go point a to point b

I would only consider paying for expansion if the game was fun to play.

Fun to me is:

  • Player input is responsive

  • Player skills are fun, consistent, and reliable

  • All weapon perks are useful, make sense, not useless and unused.

  • Skill based mobs and PVP interaction.

I wouldn’t even think of an expansion until the bugs get fixed. I still get bugs like: On the auction house, I have the check-box “can equip” on, and it shows me stuff I can’t wear. Yesterday my Bezerker buff greyed out for no reason and I could not use it. Quit to desktop didn’t fix it, but reloading from windows did. Stuff like this should not be happening still. An expansion is out of the question right now.

I am looking forward to expansions.

I also hope we get battle passes to have things to level after max level.

While I would pay, I think the first should be free as a marketing gimmick. NW lost a ton of players. Doing a thoughtful, engaging expac 1 without a cost may bring people back.

DLC’s should never be free because that affects the quality. If they know player’s will have to pay for it, they can assign more people to work on it.

lawl these devs arent getting another dime out of me

gross, they add this im out

lol i dont think this game will make it to a DLC

Yea, I doubt I’ll spend any more money on this game at its current state. For a $40 game, I’m getting my money’s worth.

If an expansion or DLC gets released, the only way I’ll pay for it is if at least 75% of the problems we have now are already fixed.

If the expansion or DLC cost me money and is needed for me to continue progression while outstanding issues are still present. Then I’ll just not play anymore.

People said that about CoD. Now it makes 10x more than it ever did before. People would like it. I would buy skins in unlocking tiers. I won’t buy them & just have them, though. Same for CoD; I will buy battlepass & get all those items, I will not just buy a skin pack. Because I am not just buying the skins or other items. That is not what I am buying at all when I do that; I am buying the leveling/progression mechanics to go further than the maxed out player XP.

They can make a dlc but good luck trying to sell that when the base game is in this state.

new world and COD are two very different games… i highly doubt you will ever see a battle pass in a mmorpg, and no people dont like it they just deal with it as its better than loot boxes… leveling progression my ass… you are jsut buy the skins and other items as the battle pass is a pointless level system to unlock said skins… you sir are full of coupium
