u still get kicked out of match and u still can get the unrespawnable bug.
Everytimes one of those happen 1h cooldown for OPR.
How to solve?
if u leave a match u get a loss, ez.
Meanwhile, the top companies still get massive amounts of free gold by holding multiple territories… But let’s nerf the solo chest runner instead…

So tired of this model. It’s one of my biggest pet peeves with this game. Super Welfare Program for the Super Companies. I find it truly disgusting.

And brace yourself… because Dan Henuber plans on increasing roster sizes for the companies. Yet again another way to help the Super Companies.

Exactly…lol, what a trash move to bring back the penalty. Internet goes down, you crash. Have fun skinning alligators for an hour

Yeah unfortunately AGS took the easiest path as usual, and simply re-instituted the old Penalty rules for leaving matches earlier, rather than actually address the issue head on (make leave early matches count as a loss, how simple is that lol?).
I won’t be playing new world until they revert this decision. Not going to waste an extra hour of my life in between game for technical glitches on NW’s end. Not worth the time. I might have 3-4 hours max in a given day to play NW. If 10-30% of my matches are unplayable due to technical glitches (can’t move, can’t use abilities, game crashes, etc etc), and I play 4 arenas and 3 OPR’s a day, that will be an average extra downtime of 2 hours a day due to glitches, when I can’t actually play the game.
I’m not going to go to chest runs/M10’s or harvest, I’m going to stop playing, it’s just that simple.

You know they’re still going to balance PvP right? Lmao they didn’t just go “Alright fu balance, let’s mess with these chests”

I tell you, this patch gives me the utmost confidence in their “very soon” balance patch.
Glad they saw the mass amounts of threads on here about people complaining about how those 28 chests were ruining the economy, and took decisive action!
Leaderboards, and removing 28 chests! The two things at the top of everyone’s wish list! Go AGS!

Good job!
Now the poor big companies can have a better time and the super rich solo chest runners stop ruining the economy.
Because the rich solo chest runner owns the entire market.
Instead of fixing the bot problem, which you apparently don’t have the proper skills for, you just remove chests and punish solo players?
Typical dev / project manager thinking.
Good job!

This is the reason the game is dying. Balance problems, late game content is meh, and these ignorant people decide to do what? Remove some chests, cause that is the cause why 95% of people quit the game after a few weeks of playing. Typical Amazon move. I hope they read these forum posts that have appeared after patch 1.8.2 and see the trash they have made.

People being worried about some chests being removed tells a lot about the state of the game

I don’t do the chest/trophy run. Ever.
And this patch killing the solo players chance at it is absurdity.
Could not organise a Fark in a Brothal!!! At least the Games Visuals are good because the Amazon Devs need a visit from “Gordon Ramsey” as their food is all rotten… Doub’t anyone will be playing in 3 months.
For real for real, it’s pretty funny actually. But I’m sure they’ll enjoy their 45+ minutes queues for highly unbalanced 6-minute matches. I guess after a while more people will stop engaging in the PvP in New World.
But hey, at least people will be penalized for leaving matches, right?
I’m pretty sure New World will maintain at least 5k concurrent players worldwide at peak. Which is still better than Archeage with peaks at less than 1k concurrent players. Afterall the bots and RMTers will be able to finally outnumber the players in game.
Leaderboards and MMR works like peanut butter and jam on a toast.
Right now we have the butter. I will stay away from any “casual” PvP gamemode untill I get my jam.

Removed chests for “economy issues”…What?! That’s like Amazon forcing the closure of grocery stores because there isn’t enough business at Whole Foods. Give me a friggin’ break. The economy is great. So…why remove chests?
Listen Dev’s…want a MUCH BETTER IDEA…remove the majority of low level gear drops (i.e. Green and Blue) that drops across all zones). All this stuff does is fill up people’s bags, then when broken down, results in a ridiculously low rate of scraps. People are doing Elite Chest Runs because of the economy, gear score, ease, and it’s one of the best ways to generate basic cash.
