Let me be honest, who wants to keep playing this game in this state? I feel stupid playing a game that does not punish exploiters in a persistent world but the honest players, where you have to invest a lot of time just to see how dozens of players destroy all your time investment with a few clicks.
I’ve tried to bypass all that and try to keep playing, only to see that the endgame is to open chests on a map with hundreds of players doing the same thing day after day.
And now this again? I just want to ask the developers and managers of New World if they would play their own game.
I followed around a logging bitter (Jodonfish on Orofena) for 5 hours one day after reporting them; during that 5 hours, I noticed how their rather sophisticated botting software was able to (sort of) defend itself from mob attacks with axe + life staff before resuming its tree farming. I encouraged people nearby to report them too; many were amused and all said they reported them. Within that 5 hours; nothing happened. Do our reports just go into a void? Honestly… any CSM wanna answer that?! Do our reports just go into a void?!
