I argued these points before the community moderator commented the same thing they do on half of the posts.
Again, no shit. Obvious problems are obvious. That doesn’t make your video prove your point any better. It’s like me recording a day of playing the game and saying “this is what’s wrong with new world”. At the same time acting like the problems are secrets only good players know about and unwilling to specify what the problems are or how to solve them. You gave no feedback and you continue to be a complete waste of time, air, space, and energy overall.
In reality, you’re unable to articulate the root of the problems with this game and simply point to population count to show that dying game is dying.
If you scroll up and re read some of the comments, people already typed out everything wrong that was in the video, I’m done replying now for real man, you keep making it an ego thing when it’s not, have a good day.
This is literally an exaggeration. No, it’s not “WAY TOO EASY” and it’s not “almost in a braindead state”. What have you actually done to prove this?
I’ve stated this quite a few times now. The video doesn’t properly show how the bow is over tuned. How could it? It’s one arena game with a limited number of builds being used. Everyone on his team is using GA/WH and the enemy team has two Bow/Rapier and one Bow/Spear. If you look at the chat in the beginning he says “something needs to be done” followed by “if this is them im recording this”. This leads me to believe he’s just mad at individual players and not just the bow. He’s mad at being put up against a premade ranged group as a melee player.
Just because I agree that the game is not balanced doesn’t mean I agree with your points that you think make the game unbalanced.
I do not main any weapon that uses dex. Pay up.
EDIT: I use GA/WH the most.
Technically, there is 78 possible weapon combinations (13 Choose 2). I’m asking you what 2 builds you think everyone is running because there are more than 2 builds that players use. I also highly doubt that bow is in either of the top 2 most used builds.
That’s our point… it’s unbalanced. then you agreed… and still want to argue. crazy…
but you playyyy? a cheese build huh…
okay even better, if you made a game and there were 78 different possible weapon combinations but you only see the majority if what’s left of you game’s population playing with 1 weapon more-so than every other weapon… doesn’t that strike odd to you?
ofc people are playing the lot of weapons you schmuck… I’m saying a mass amount of people are more often playing just the 1 or 2… red flag.
Once the sweat necks realized that s/s had a 2 hit cc combo, it was the s/s and bb for that god awful combo that has 0 balancing… or any 1 tap rotation combos… remember ice spike? how many people use that now vs other builds? how many times have you gone into OPR back in the day when the meta was GW spam? literally everyone had GW even those IG users…
Now the meta shifted towards Bow and you’re saying it’s for no reason? or are you saying it is balanced? or not? People gravitate towards ez playstyle… the hit reg on bow shots are a joke, it’s cake af to land hits now… they took one of the higher skill gap type of weapons and made it carebear for people who suck…
That’s nice… after playing this morning, I did like 2 arena matches, and several OPRs… come to find out- nearly (on camelot) half of the players were either bow/x or heavy CC/x… still hasn’t change at all. I did notice anyone rockin the IG was using the pylon ability… because now it can hit for near 1k a hit on heavy armor XD
Bro this community is thrashing this game… we got morons defending broken mechanics and cheesy balance… They will argue every single day about how the OP didn’t make a point worth any merit, yet just knowing what goes on in my server- then watching this video only proves the unbalanced nature of what people like to play… they like playing something that’s easy to play… I’m saying this game wasn’t originally intended to be corny or ez…
notice how I answered this question the first time you asked? you still haven’t answered my question… so I’ll ask another time…
If you were a dev, you made a game where it has… scratch that, here… If you made a diablo type game, where it’s class based, and you made like 6 classes to choose from but you noticed only the demon hunter was being playing in PvP by the majority of your game’s population…
What would you think? why do you think people would play just 1 class in majority vs the other 5 classes? what’s wrong with those other classes? is it balance? skill gap? why on earth are people just playing that 1 class in PvP? nothing wrong here huh?
I can already tell this is what you’re about to say… “The majority of the game’s population? NuH UH It’S noT thE mAjoRitY” You can do this man, I believe in you. just think about it.
SDKJFHSDG smh… dodging the fuckin’ question aaaaagain. Cause you DO KNOW already… Trying to play stupid… it’s not gonna work. I know you are smarter than that, you’re being passively bias towards cheesy or EZ builds…
You mean… Easier to play in any situation because it’s unbalanced again? I wonder why people don’t use heavy/medium armor with Bow… hmm… craaaazy… what’s easier to play… Wearing armor that makes you dodge like 3 feet or armor that will make you get out of a GW in a single dodge? LA can dodge through most CC spam even roots XD nah it’s in a good state…
The unbalanced factors come from LA and then the Bows capabilities in most variables you’d run into nowadays. You remember when bow used to hit for like 8-9k damage? then it got nerffed… then to compensate for that nerf, they added in a larger hit detection for your arrows… and since people are running more often than not- in Light armor… I mean… connect the dots… and that’s only the tip of the iceberg.
You mean- in any situation… You’re not getting it huh?
If you’re going to use arenas being smaller so it’s harder to kite- as an example, at least understand why the video was posted, and I see it on my server too… why on earth would 3 bow users think it’s a good idea to go into a place where it’s much harder for them to play and actually play competitively? OH cause it’s actually just that much easier as a bow/LA user now…
“Has advantages in certain situations” now turns into “Easier to play in any situation”… it’s 1 or the other, 1 being close range, 2 being long range… with variables in between.
Now here we are talking about a unbalanced game again… Instead of splitting hairs about this and that, how about looking at it as a whole, and just think about the reasons, the very intent for people to push towards those metas… I’ve never seen so many people playing the FoTM in any game I ever played- as much as NW… I’ve been 1 builds since preview, never changed once… I’ve seen people changing builds to the meta or “easier to execute”, type of builds so often… sure NW lets you because you’re allowed to be a jack of all trades… but uhhh, look what classes are being utilized the most… then think why.
Being easy to play and being unbalanced are two different things. You guys still have yet to bring up any valid reason why the bow is unbalanced besides your butthurt feelings about how they made the hitbox larger for arrows to connect. You literally have ape brain, gtfo of forums.
Clearly you don’t have a good understanding of what it’s like playing other builds and this just confirms that.
hit reg… dodge distance vs other armors, damage, DPS-or-burst… Bow is overtuned. More people are playing it now because it got easier to play, and it was already a good weapon… remember when people used to spam the jump shots? then when they fixed that, people complained about bow being too slow and rendered useless? I do… pepperidge farm remembers too.
I… what? looool… are you english? oh and GW is Gravity well, noob…
a Jack of all trades means, you can be any build you want, whenever you want (almost). you can be a tank 1 second. then swap to life staff- if you got the gear for it and the know-how to play it at it’s best… except bow requires the aim of a 4 year old and you’ll still get compensation for missing a shot…
You’ll never guess what build I use maybe I’m LA/Bow/Rapier? maybe I know as much because I play the cheesy skilless weapon/armor… wouldn’t that be funny? hmmm…
I already know what build you use: S&S/WH. You’d be stupid to think that’s a cheese build. It’s a build that, wait for it… has advantages in certain circumstances.
s/s is indeed cheesy but mainly due to the DR system- why do you think the 1 tap combo with s/s bb is possible? because s/s. In fact most if not ALL CC is cheesy with the current Diminishing return system that NW has… but being in heavy armor vs a bow user that’s my skill level, I would die 10 out of 10 times. when I say something is cheesy or easy to play, the underlining mechanics are what makes it cheesy… Bow wouldn’t be so bad if kiting weren’t so fucking easy… Bow also wouldn’t be so bad if the hit reg were reduced back to actually HITTING your target lol right now you can go test for yourself. you can for real miss by a foot+ and don’t worry, NW gotchu! they’ll make it a hit.
Getting hit in LA isn’t a problem, it (when you land) crumbles LA users… in fact most LA users are the butt of those 1 tap rotation videos that are on YT. but they are also the ones doing said 1 tap rotations…
LA is unbalanced/mobility is unbalanced… stamina isn’t an issue at all, even after the changes.
it’s in conjunction with other mechanics that make it ez mode, and cheesy… Why do people gravitate to what’s easier to play? it’s those conjunctions of said mechanics…
Since I started this game in preview to the last time I played- people have always gravitated towards the corniest combinations… remember when stagger was in the game on light attacks? well what would fit that more than anything else in regards to ez mode… Ahhh swing speed. which weapon has the fastest swing speed to net those staggers? gotcha. It’s not hatchets fault… it’s the underlining mechanics that made it cheesy. not the weapon itself…
Bow on the other hand, the hit reg is a joke… that should be abolished, people should HAVE to aim with certainty. their arrows should have to HIT their target… now you can still hit them if you missed by a couple feet lmao…
But if I was able to connect the dots from the OPs thread/video… why can’t you? Remember I’m supposed to not be able to read correctly or comprehend words… But I was able to see the obvious statement that was made in a single video… because I too see the meta on my server always changing and shifting to what is easier to play. is your server full of like, saints that never abuse broken or unbalanced mechanics and everyone is using different types of weapons with no 1 tap combos? XD
Given that my medium armor resist split was 1650 1100 due to physical favoring armor on all 5, I also, like a dummy ran 0 opal’s, I got crit by a pylon for 4k yesterday.
yeesh… and that has bot aim built into it where you have to iframe it or you’re getting hit in the bawlz…
Here is an exploit to it though… if you’re getting hit by an NPC or CPU that uses range- you can strafe against a wall, and the bot aim will try to lead you off and hit the wall instead of you XD shit’s broken. I remember when nobody used IP… now that it does too much damage, it’s almost a must… so they addressed how corny the ice spike was because of it’s damage output, but then gave them a turret that does this… XD with s/s I’m around 2k+ on physical and like 1200+ on spell res and still get hit for 1k+ by IP.
I think maybe IP should be physical damage based personally… I mean it’s shooting a physical ice spike at you, not a magical ice spike… the pylon itself was made through magic, but the pylon is forming said ice spikes and launching them at said player/target… I dunno I’m splitting hairs…
Honestly at this point I don’t even know what can turn this ship around.
Also, another bug that’s been ignored for a month now… If you get knocked down, NPC or player- have you tried timing your weapon swap as soon as you get knocked down? you’re gonna laugh… so much for knockdowns once people figure this out.
You do 1 of 2 things… based on your timing of the swap. if you too it too late- you get knocked down again rofl… if you do it soon enough, you literally stand back up instantly. I’ve put a ticket in but it’s been a month since… got nothing back except Don’t worry we’ll send this to our team! looks like it…
Wait until AHK users find out that timing… NOBODY will be getting flattened ever again until this bug gets fixed.
If anyone is curious, go fight a bear that does that flatten attack (3 stomp attack). once it hits you go ahead and swap weapons. tadaaaa What sucks is this does work in PvP…
I’m saying this game wasn’t originally intended to be corny or ez…
maybe I’m LA/Bow/Rapier? maybe I know as much because I play the cheesy skilless weapon/armor… wouldn’t that be funny? hmmm…
