Stop defending Amazon!

It’s pathetic because it doesn’t fit his narrative. :slight_smile:

I have lived MMORPG releases for 20 years, and from my experience I can only say:

  • I would like to kiss the bald head of Jeff Bezos for investing in AGS.

I’m not talking about queue times. I’m talking about queues that don’t function. I have yet to make it through a queue since the initial 8am queue on launch day. If I don’t get in before 11am when there aren’t any queues, I don’t play that day. Not because I’m impatient. But because I get in line, wait, and then get booted out halfway through. I’ve seen every error is at this point.

AFK abusers definitely were a part of the prolem. Past 23:00 queues no longer exist on Runeberg. Normallyl you’d have a queue til 00:30.

Don’t defend the afk abusers, fuck em. They got selfish.

There is such a thing as overstaying your welcome, in times like these. Even if you paid 40 quid.

My experience today: Play about 30 minutes before work, no problem.

30 minutes before leaving work, get on TeamViewer and get in queue. 300 people. By the time I get home 45 minutes later I’ve been kicked out.

Requeue, now at 500. Go to the gym, eat dinner, come back. Kicked again.

Requeue. Now at 900 and there’s no chance I get to play today.

Cool servers bro

I’m sorry, I can’t hear you over my level 33 character one shotting Wolves outside of Windsward. (who by the way, I’ve been playing with no problems THANKS to the issues being resolved by AGS)

Sounds like you need a new game bud. Might I suggest Final Fantasy 14? Maybe some
Diablo ® II: Resurrected
?

Surely, you can find better ways to spend your time than coming onto the forums and complaining because from the sound of it, a woman could treat you like a king and you still wouldn’t be satisfied.

This post is contradictory. If you don’t support big companies, why are you here? Why do you care? Why do you play New World? You’re doing exactly what they want, in your own words. This is a “I hate big corps” post, nothing more. This has nothing to do with the game.

Nah…queue timers are from population initially. Normally queue times go down at a decent enough rate to get people in pretty quick…

But nope! Everyone just nolifing and playing 20+ hours a day and intentionally protecting their character from logging out when their playsession is done creates a NEW problem where the queue doesn’t decrease.

When the queue doesn’t decrease BECAUSE of people not logging out, THEN other people feel like they have join in on this degenerate thing just to preserve their server spot, which makes the problem worse and worse to the point where queue spaces were going down by 100 every hour.

Stop making this into a company/corporation vs shill thing. Players are degenerate and toxic more than ever in gaming right now and comments like…

At this point I can just imagine the meme with the guy walking in with the giant analog clock yelling ITS TIME TO STOP.

I’m so glad that a 150 queue disappears in just 8-10 minutes as it should.

Stop telling me what to do.

They are partly because of AFK’ers, so you’re wrong.

You mention seedy but i don’t think you quite understand the definition of the word.

When someone is breaking the TOS/EULA in plain sight, they get reported. Simple. When we report someone breaking the rules, we’re not the ones doing anything wrong. If people didn’t exploit the AFK mechanics there would be no need for anyone to report them. Get it?

The studio developing the game is an Amazon ‘division’. They belong to Amazon but they won’t get more funding just by snapping their fingers.

There’s this thing called a hierarchy and Amazon (Like many other companies) uses a hierarchical structure instead of a flat organizational structure, where everyone answers to someone above them, and everything has to go through the ‘chain of command’ so to speak.

For instance. If the guys in marketing need more money for their ad strategy or sales strategy, they need to send a request to the higher ups. They can’t just go to the bank and take money without approval, and in some cases, the higher ups can say -no- you’re not getting more money. Work with what you have. I can testify to that because it happened to my team more than once in the past.

You’ve claimed to have worked in the ‘industry’ and that you’ve ‘built and run lots of MMOs’ but you don’t even know how a company is structured… This is yet another indicator that you have absolutely no clue.

No, i’m not going to defend someone who exploits a game mechanic and feature, holding the queue hostage and preventing people from logging on, when under normal circumstances they’d be booted for being AFK for too long. Pray i don’t spot you using a macro, because if i do, i’m reporting you. :wink:

Free transfers are coming.

Here’s yet another indicator that shows you having no clue.

You can predict the amount of players from pre-orders, but only from pre-orders. You cannot predict launch day sales. That is literally impossible to do.

No. Quality assurance is for making sure the game works, and they haven’t failed on that part as the game works quite well. Control and Testing was done by alpha testers and beta testers along with paid testers. Hence the game got delayed multiple times, so they could improve it.

The queues are not a result of a lack of testing, nor quality control. It’s because people are ignorant and blind. They picked a high pop server rather than a low-medium pop server and expected no queues.

These people have never experienced actual queue issues unless they played WoW when it released, or the original FFXIV and many other past MMORPGs.

The only ones in the wrong here, are AFK exploiters and people like you who defend them.

I swear, if i didn’t know better, i’d think you’re Derek Smart behind that forum name… Which would explain quite a lot actually…

I’m guessing you are making it into the game but are still AFK after leaving while you are in queue. That’s the system working as intended. Makes me feel like the person who is on a phone call wait line who afk’s from the phone and then gets mad because the customer support rep answered but no one was there and hung up.

You aren’t entitled to stay logged in the game while you are AFK. :woman_shrugging:

For your other issues of bugs in the queue, I’d recommend create a post in the bug forums or bump one that has already been created to help increase priority in fixing it.

I can personally say I haven’t experienced any issues with sitting in queue.

You’re intentionally obtuse and conversation with you is useless. You’re inability to see the double standards you’re applying makes you a waste of time.

Coming from someone who says something like

This sounds like your mind is made up and you aren’t looking for a conversation, you want to obtain and much attention and power as you can through hatred and spite.

Obligatory “Your” instead of “You’re” this time around buddy.

This is one of the most painfully ironic things I’ve read this week.

This degenerate queue holding crap is something you are defending and using and are now protesting because they stopped it. You care less about all of the legitimate people logging into the game as you essentially turned off THEIR ability to play the game by doing this.

Good grief I’m seething at the complete lack of self awareness and actual hypocritical double standards.

You’re seeing double.
You must be living in a tiny bubble.
You keep talking but you’re only making it worse.
My facts are hitting you in the face as you try to converse.
You read my reply and then you aggro.
But i’m still gonna report you if you’re using an A.F.K macro.

Grumpy out.

Well said.

In order for that to be true for the first instance, I’d have had to jump 300 places in 20 minutes. Not likely.

In the second instance, you’re saying I got put back into queue after being afk DC’d? That’s not the way it works either.

Sorry, I know you really want to defend Amazon and their very fun game but the server situation is a literal joke at this point.

I havnt reported anybody.

Unfortunately it’s hard to help you because you lack specificity in your replies.

Previously you mentioned the term ‘kicked’. You get kicked when you AFK, that’s different from things like disconnecting, or queue bugging out. Unless you can provide a screenshot showing else wise? I haven’t seen it.

You simply want to whine about not being able to idle in game all day. Because I don’t care enough I’m just going to categorize you in wanting to go to work, gym and eat while maintaining your slot on the server.

You can try and make it seem otherwise. :slight_smile:

The server Im on, Maramma, I think…just sucks. Toxic community, queues when you want to actually play. Would love it if those server transfers were available right about now so I can transfer off to a quieter less sweaty server and enjoy my time before I decide to shelve new world.
