Don’t know you should ask on the world of warcraft forums instead of new world forums.
Non-existant endgame. You can’t play dungeons (everybody sitting on their keys). You can’t play Outpost Rush (2h+ queue times). I farmed elite chests for ~2 weeks, but it gets boring eventually. High level crafting doesn’t seem to be very rewarding and requires absurd amounts of materials. You won’t get invited to wars or invasions either. There is just nothing to do for the average players.
the end game progression is just pure trash. 1-60 wasn’t so bad but after that it’s a grind that makes asian mmos look tame in comparison. end game is so bland, boring, and little to nothing that’s actually worth doing. anyways, my bud quit last week and now i have no one to play with so it’s getting real hard stick around for me. blah.
Duping ruins all MMOs and Amazon’s response has been laughable.
I haven’t played since the 1.0.4 update when a wave of duped currency was left circulating in the economy. I wanted a rollback and patch revert, or a shutdown and relaunch. Instead they just disabled all forms of wealth transfer for a couple days while banning a handful of dummy accounts used to do the duping.
I don’t have a lot of pity for those of you that kept playing after the first duping wave, as if it would just work itself out. I still would love to play but duping is a serious issue and Amazon dropped the ball entirely.

Constant new exploits destabilizing the economy and PvP. Crafting takes too many resources, storage issues in every city I care to do things, etc… Its also super demotivating to lose back to back wars, lose to exploits, encounter impossible to kill “paladin” builds in outpost rush, etc. I’ve yet to find an upgrade to any of my faction gear since I got it, a month ago.
Agree that Exploits destabilize the economy.
NW Developers decision to give temporary suspensions to known exploiters, many of them Twitch partners, was a huge blow to the credibility of the developers in the eyes of the community.
Now that there is a knew, know Elite Chest Exploit driving down major trophy prices, we await Developers, reaction/response with less hope than before
The exploiters on twitch are safe given Amazone owns twitch, that would be like cutting of your nose to spite your face.
I’m about 1 week into the game at level 41-49 and content is shit I’m piss poor with 13k gold even after trying to sell items on the market and salvaging every equipment that’s bound to charector for gold given the gold and tax is a broken mess, the gold I get goes on constantly repairing items not one part of the game I can say has been really enjoyable I guess I have played to try and justify the £40 spent.
Pvp in mmos is a major factor on keeping me playing when pve content is boring/stale and yet the pvp in this is the worst I have ever seen I would say played but I am unable to do pvp.
Azoth is the worst thing I have seen implemented in a game, who wants to spend 15 minutes plus running to a location to end up dying and going back to the place you just came from and with the joy of having to do it all again but now with broken gear and broken inventory gear.
As a new player I doubt I’ll stick around the content is just lacking, I got the game despite the bad reviews as mmos are my gaming preferences and thought at least pvp would give me enjoyment but I was and am so wrong.
voidbent is supposed to be BIS and you feel ok with slight advantage over 500gs green ?
LOL, either you duped it or you simply do not have it, so you are not aware of the work behind it.
Too much coping going on in this thread about how it’s as alive as ever.
For me, it was an extreme lack of endgame and the entire content and meta revolving around exploiting bugs. Also, the fact that some things being extremely unbalanced and things making no sense. For example, the loot luck trophy being worthless, or the fact that you may have to sell your soul for a dungeon key and get 3 green items, whereas some elite world mob may drop much better gear.

For me, it comes down to that there are way too many problems. I can play and have a lot of fun, but at the same time I will also be reminded about the bugs and bad designs.
Everyone will have their own pain point, but I feel like I just hit mine and can’t be bothered. I can play other games that I can have a lot of fun in and has a small fraction of the problems that NW has.
It’s when people stop queueing for OPR. That’s when I don’t want to login anymore. So then I go to bed, and login the next day, when people are queueing again.
How do you know that it’s the non US players that make the US servers lag?
Exploits, random bans, no trust in the company anymore. Opening chest as endgame. Dungeons being locked behind stupid grinds. Nerf upon nerf affecting legit players rather then the bots they are intended to deal with.
Economy should have stabilized by now, but nope 2k server pop + exploits=bye bye economy
I wish I had a way of reaching out to AGS Developers, sit down with them and help them reorder their priorities on making changes that would improve player retention, alas that will never happen.
Allusive, I hear your suggestions and complaints, while you and I have differing opinions on some of these issues, I know with simple fixes and better explanations your ingame experience could be made better. Yet for some reason AGS Developers do not know what the problems really are or have chosen to focus on other issues or poorly explain how their systems work or know everything and how to fix them, but are being directed from Top Management to do X,Y,Z instead, following a preexisting multi-year plan.
Active player numbers drop, individuals like you post the same complaints/confusion over basic system interactions over and over… and AGS Developers fail to address these basic issues either through fixes or better explanations with examples, to make the player experience better.
Maybe @Luxendra has an explanation why these basic issues are not being addressed instead of a graph being shown about gold distribution in the economy per level, with statements AGS Developers are satisfied with gold distribution as it falls within expectations, ignoring solutions to these repeated complaints, many of which are a failure to explain basic systems and how they interact, and not failure in implemented game mechanics.
Bad design and they dont appear to have a clear direction.
Buggiest game i have played.
Systems to waste your time
Bad performance
Economy ruined
Bots and gold sellers running around
Does not have any content to keep you playing. The watermark system is arguebly the worst gear system yet seen in an mmo.
And so when you offer all of this and the worst end game in an mmo, it is surprising that anyone is defending this game or playing it at all still.
I guess it is extreme copium only because it’s made by a large company

- Solo endgame content is picking flowers.
- Weird stuttering animation.
- Sea of bugs.
- Perks and basically nothing is working properly.
- Exploits.
- Too much effort to find PVP open world.
- Undeserved bans of without ANY explanation.
- Bugs, and dont get me started here on details, or this would fill the whole forum
- Exploits, which every player NEEDS to be aware of, otherwise being banned without knowing what for
- Shutting down money transfer and not shutting down town degrades when not being able to pay taxes
- Useless support
- Toxic community in the game
- Even more toxic community in the forums
- Crafting some things in bulk is a big waste of time. You can literally go for lunch while crafting 200 gloves.
- Azoth cost for travel is absolutely not clear how calculated. Some day its 30, some day its 300 for the same travel with same weight.
- Auction house is flooded with useless gear for 15,- or less
- Gear Drops are 99% abysmal
need more?
let me know…
Bro i have nothing interesting to do…
Connected 10min, thinking of farming something while waiting for the Auction House but i forgot this idea.
Thinking of doing some Outpost rush but it’s AxeHammer Rush so…
Thinking of doing Dungeons but remembered that i have to farm a whole day to get a fkg key.
disconnected. I think i’m done with Fail World too…
It was worth the money i spent, played more than 400 hours. So I thought more would be GREED…
The answer is simple.
Rushed to max level and then rushed to max gear score, which left them with “nothing to do”.
Do this in any new MMO right at launch and you’re gonna have a bad time.
