Yall live in some alternate reality
the most dead server hits 700 peaks every day which is enough to have 17 oprs going at the same time and over 200 3v3s
Never was the case. First players that do leave servers are pvp players. Last players you have are pve. So moment you drop to 500-700 range OPR is dead except evening or other time of day when you have peak in given zone.
Theory confirmed: yall live in an alternate reality. How does that even make any sense to you??? Pve content has an end and can get repetitive while pvp never ends and barely gets repetitive
like come on… what games do you think are more popular? Pvp shooters or pve building games? Hint: its pvp games
because the devs dont play their own game. Any new map wont help when its 90% muskets.
Until the devs are all fired and we get some real ones this game is doomed.
I’ve said it on our discord and I’ll say it here. My tin foil hat theory is that cross server OPR’s are so far down the roadmap because they know they won’t need them by the end of summer because they will be down to one server per region.
It’s the big brain move to get out of doing the work.
A actual cross server 3 faction WvW like game mode with War mechanics would have been a good long term tool for gameplay.
I mean I see what you’re saying, I just don’t think you understand what he’s saying.
When a server starts to die the PvPers are the ones who leave the server, not the game. They transfer to a more active server for more PvP (wars on dead servers are meh and rarely happen)
Again yall living in some alternate reality, the only people who switch servers for pvp are competitive pvpers or people who pretend they are competitive but suck. Opr or arena isnt competitive and anyone can queue for it
you cant sit here and tell me a server that has 700 player peaks cant get an opr match going. I remember over a year ago my server was peaking at like 400 and STILL had oprs going ![]()
Of course it can. But if it’s peaking at 700 players, the more dead times you aren’t getting OPRs, and let be real longer queues
CAP, you would see at max 1 OPR queue that takes like an hour to fill. That or you found the unicorn server of randoms who casually play PvP. 400 players is like really more like 300-350 players when you take into account the bots. So you’d literally need over 5% of the population to be looking for OPR at the same time. Not saying it’s impossible, just saying from what I’ve seen in dead servers, it just doesn’t happen often
All it took was 1 message in chat “21/32 opr”
So why are the people on these servers complaining about the amount of time they spend in queues for these activities? And so many coming to these forums to say that PvP in New World is dead?
Example below, why would anyone saying this be happy with the current PvP content and sit in queues for 20 to 40 minutes waiting for some content they are not really that interested in?
Great point, totally agree. New PvP content is sorely needed. Expeditions add very little to the game.
Exactly the same thoughts. We need new activities, stuff to spend our time with. A new expedition and even weapons doesn‘t make me log back in. I can only play 2 weapons at a time and why would I switch if I enjoy my current weapon??
They just felt like hating on nothing i guess? 2 days ago there was some guy claiming that no one does mutations with randos anymore because everyone wants to place high on leaderboards and yet theres always m10 lobbies opened in the group finder ![]()
Maybe you just dont realize this yet but the majority of posts and complaints on this forum are overexaggerations mixed in with hate. A guy had to wait 5min for an opr queue and will tell you that he couldnt get an opr going. Like what ![]()
![]()
They say the entire game is dead because they dont seem to know what dead is. They also say theyre gonna quit but they still playing
Id love to see this 40 minute queue
Well actually, I meant the people ON the servers. I am talking about those in global chat and although I don’t personally PvP I joined the queue for OPR and sat there for 20 minutes just to see how long it took.
This game is falling apart because of the lack of content 2023 looks bad for NW
I have to agree with this to a certain extent. When someone on this forum suggested that a world I had a character on was “dead” I pointed out that it had a population from about 800 and peaking between 1500 and 1700 his response was “does OPR pop?” and insisted that if OPR didn’t “pop” regularly then it must mean the server is dead.
He couldn’t accept the possibility that it was just PvP that was dead on the server and the server itself was completely healthy with a PvE population.
true… + i’d rather see a change to all these “mixxed creature dungeons” to make them one species like it used to be…
its a good idea imo but its annoying how you have to wait like 2 minutes to change gear. yet again a mechanic that wouldnt be in the game if the devs played their own game. ![]()
true true…
