One step forward, Two steps backward

Hello,

I didn’t think I’ll start a new topic myself but now I really feel like it.

Since the release of this game I’ve really been enjoying my play time even though I couldn’t join my friends until lv 50-ish due to server transfer issues.

A lot of bugs have been encountered but nevermind I have patience and I can still enjoy the game.
I come here on the forums multiple time per day to get info so I’m like the New World Wikipedia for my friends haha. So every time something doesn’t work they ask me what’s the deal about it and if it’s gonna be fixed soon or not (if the devs announced something or not).

I’ve always tried to make my friends take the bugs easy, “it just released, bugs will be fixed sooner or later nevermind”, “at least we can still do this and that”.

But seriously after the last patch (1.1.2), I feel like it’s too much. I am a developer myself so I understand. There is a lot of pressure, you work more than planned (ie. extra hours) even though you really want to come back home and relax because after all, you’re a human not a machine.

However, I think AGS you just screwed up very bad. How can you ship a product like that? Like how a so little patch can bring so much bugs ?
Things not appearing, characters stuck, compass not working, chat not working, wrong images or placeholders instead of correct images, projectiles not touching the target but flying through them, spells not firing except for the sound ect… For real ! HOW? Some of these exist since days/weeks/months and instead of doing a big update focused on bug fixing you just add more and more.

Since today’s patch I have to quit the game and log back in after each activity, my weapons swaps are totally messed up. There is ALWAYS something that doesn’t work anymore (compass, can’t speak in global chat, can’t interact with anything ect.)

This is too much. I think I’m not the only one thinking this but I won’t speak on other people’s behalf, but I would prefer no update with an approximatively working game than a little patch which brings so much bugs. Seriously how can someone give a “go” and let people put this kind of patch on prod servers ? This is not professional at all.

Come on you are Amazon Game Studio not a one-man indie game dev studio !

Please just do something about it. You have to, this is not right for us, customers. I don’t think it is. I’m sorry but I’m running out of patience here. I really love this game but there is always a detail here and there, again and again that breaks immersion and enjoyment.

Good luck and please do something you can’t continue like this and add more bugs for so little new features and “bug fixes”.

With all the posts about this patch I’m afraid to get home and play.

Edit: thinking more about this, the update was small for visible changes, does not mean they didn’t change a lot in preparation n for future changes. Still, how can they allow a patch break the game the s bad is amazing.

You’re right, maybe there are a lot of invisible changes. But I hope one day they will release a big patch focused on bug fixing… And applying new patch without adding more bugs…

I just saw that they addressed “various issues”. I thought okay cool they at least fixed the bugs that came with the last patch. But no, 3h downtime for 2 bugs.

:pleading_face:

After previous update we were falling trough roads, houses, stairs in great cleave and more. They implemented the world boss gates in Great Cleave and Scorpio elite area. Taking these gates took me and 2 friends longer than killing the turkey as same 3.
