I mean is there seriously a community manager in here saying thanks they are always looking for ways to improve the game and he will pass along the feedback to developers? This is like obvious watching YouTube or something instead of doing actual job.

Ever played LineAge II? Where you need to grind 8 hours to get 1% percent at lvl95? Thats real grinding.
Man, i spend so much time in that game (5000+hours).
But you get the 1% right? Here you grind just to get more RNG and you likely wonāt get that 1% at all.

They actually did nerf him a few times and they ended Gibraltar nerfing him to pure dog shit Iāve played the game from pre season 1 and where he used to be one of the best now he is literally the worst. Donāt compare tho these 2 games itās literally different genre
Gibbys shield was OP all the did was make a small change so it didnt last as long. Octane didnt get nerferd as hard as the rapier.
small incremental changes are fine but count 6 seconds in head 1 mississippi 2 mississippi 3 mississippi 4 mississippi 5 mississippi 6 mississippi thats what they added to the entire left ability treeā¦ does that sound reasonable? well the fleche was 3 Mississippiās but thats what ppl used to escapeā¦ Most rapier users could deal without the fleche and that was the least effected because some streamer made up some weird science about" iframes" dumbest thing Iāve ever heard ofā¦ need to stop listening to ppl who only play a game while it benefits them. Start listening to those who have time and experience in it. Players who actually care about it. Iāve bought multiple copies for friends trying to get ppl into it and have over 1300 hrs into it. most streamers take not give.
They use to decimals in their lvling. Like 94.22%. And it goes goddamn slow. Thats why alot of top ppl used botting software to the exping. And the RNG in L2 can be horrible also.
But one thing, they dont do in L2, is NERFINGā¦
Daggers in LineAge II, were for a long time (years) superior to any class. NCsoft used later positive nerfing. Buffing other classes to balance things out.
AGS could learn from this. How they ruined the healer class, how they ruined the ice mage, how they ruined the fire mage, and so on.
And they even told to the community āYe, we nerfed those classes to hardā. Well? Why dont give some love those classes again, and re-enable some nerfes undone. But no, Axes and Hammers can still do idiot dmg compared to any other classes.
When do they learn it.
I dunno, man, if other games ācaterā to me so hard, why is it so easy to put so much more time into them than into New World? I mean, if theyāre just giving me everything for free, thereād barely be a game to play, right?
The players who played this game xxx hours have right to criticize the game, announce that they are leaving or whatever if they are not crossing the red line.
A game with 900k to 25k peak players on 4 months is a huge fail and you want people donāt react to donāt hurt your delicate experience?
This is life boy. You must learn to live with otherās opinion.

This 3 rules are golden. I agree and will keep it in mind.
I am an experienced MMO player, I have played them for over 20 years & have played a wide variety of different titles.
New World has a lot of promise, however a lot of the grind it has is absolutely stupid, excessive and pointless.
The worst grind exists in the entire crafting system, from gathering to making stuff it has so many layers of excessive grind piled upon excessive grind that it becomes a giant pile of steaming timesink. The amount of RNG it has in it is absolutely ridiculous, overally I would say of some 30+ titles I Have played it has the absolute shittiest crafting system of any game thus far.
The expertise grind is a dumb ass-backwards way of doing a āgear treadmillā while steps have been taken to scale back the amount of punitive grind it unleashed its just a bad system, you canāt make a good game from bad systems & poorly made decisions.
A great quote I read elsewhere:
āNew World is 6 months of great decisions away from becoming a good gameā
Iād say it might be more than that, a lot more than 6 months worth of bad decisions got us to where the game is at right now, 6 months of great decisions might get us a base level āadequateā game.

To start with the one and only fact that counts, especialy for AGS, player numbers. It is the only objective issue, which is relevant for the success of a game.
Next is trend. It is another objective issue, which reflects what players think about the development of the game.
No matter how loud remaining players cry and shout and offend others, the issues above cant be ignored. The group of enthusiastic defenders has been shrinking from week to week. They also have become more offensive, aggressive, irrational, reality ignoring. Short, the rest of the players behave like fundamentalists. Their arguing have become more irrational with every week, with every patch.
Those people ignore completely, that most of the leaving people cared about NW. They have posted hundreds of suggestions, bug reports, constructive critics and more. These players (and they are way more, than the few still playing) have been offended, got shitstorms and many even wanted them banned, their threads and posts deleted an so on. It is like a witch hunt.
Not the critcs behave like āfacistsā, the so called āfanboysā behave like that. They only accept supporters and critics get loads of offendings. The few people, who are still here, but dont play actively, they do care and most of the times, they post very constructive changes. They even read patch notes, although they dont play or have fun with NW. I would call them āreal fansā, but they get nothing but ignorance and shitstorms.
You, who keep demanding critics to shut up, you are a main reason, why MMOs have a hard way to success, when the game suffers from severe problems.
And one short comment to the MODs here. I do respect your job, your work, your difficult role here in the forums and you, as persons, but you tend to listen to the āirrational fanboysā way more, than to the players, who realy care. You respond to them much faster, more often and appriciate every positive post of them, nevertheless how uncritical they are. They want NW to survive. So do many others. I wish you would support all groups of āfansā equally.
P.S. I forgot: Those players, who are still active, they complain about NW much more, than the players months ago. Just a little sign for the thread starter !

People like you are the worst. QUIT TELLING PEOPLE TO LEAVE, good grief. Thereās been too much of that alreadyā¦the game is shallow and vastly underdeveloped for lvl 60+ content.
People like the combat but hate thereās nothing to really do with it. Whereās the open world territory vs territory struggles?
Whereās the server leaderboards tracking individual and company kills, hps healed, etc etc?
Thereās just this void of content outside of OPR which doesnāt even boast ranked conflictā¦just a general que thatās limited to only the server you play on. I could go on and on. People are going to continue to talk about the short comings and the population drops because itās unprecedented and sad to see a game decline THIS RAPIDLY. Sooo many people are lvl 60 and have NOTHING TO DO.
But I promise you, telling people to āstfu or leaveā isnāt going to help. Ever.

Iāve said the same until 1 dude came and told me that I have 10+ hours available to play cuz he works so I can have foodā¦
Ppl should have benefits for spending 10+ hours in comparison with ppl who can spent 1-2 hours. Common sense.
New gaming community is a bit hypocrite if u ask me. Why? Well, first time complain about anything that take more than few tries to achieve it. After they get everything within a week they start complaining how bad Amazon are for not bringing new content?!
