New World MMO

[Etheco]

Reading above I might roll on a server that isn't rammed, seems Bifrost is the place to be for some reason lol

I've always thought it would be cool if an MMO did a thing where you get a 10% cumulative XP boost buff for each 30 mins that someone is in a queue. So if you queue for an hour and a half, you get a 30% XP boost buff for an hour and a half when you get in, but again that sort of thing requires an MMO to think outside of the box.

Yup things like that as a reward for the wait time is definitely giving something back.

Who's idea was it to roll on Bitfrost

It's no surprise there are queue's. I'm surprised that there are many servers with 10K queues though.

We're currently creating new peak player counts at 363K for the 50 EU servers that are open.

Yeah I've gotten straight in on a non-Bifrost server haha. Guess I'll just chill on here.

Much of the queues were avoidable, IF they had bothered, but sadly too few companies ever bother to learn from previous mistakes.

in 1h30m i've moved like 15 places in the queue.

they can't be kicking afk people or people are avoiding it easy.

shame streamers get priority queue if they had the same as everyone else amazon would try a lot harder to fix it

US servers should be open now so some of the load should be shifted.

New World taken 2nd spot in player ranking on Steam. 416K just beating Dota 2.

Ive now been playing for over 5 hours in queue. lol

What level are you?

Crikey, that australian server with the queue of 25,000 , I think I'd give up on that one and try another if I was one of them, they've got no chance of getting into that today with that size of queue

 

[Tombstone]

Steam review system showing once again why its so often pointless, New World started at Overwhelmingly Positive and has dropped throughout the day and now sits on 66% - Mixed. Mostly I would wager due to queues rather than game.

Anyone in yet.

Anyone in yet.

I'm at 80 in queue but it's going down around -1 every 15 - 20 minutes for hours now

 

[Clairvoyant]

What faction are we all joining.

 

[Joe Jones]

Discord has eluded that the starter zones have a capacity of 2000 players. The rest of the zones have a greater cap so I think things should get better as people progress out of the starter zone (which should be about an hour of gameplay for most)

 

[BowdonUK]

I might join the game later. I'm keeping an eye on all these queues people are talking about.

Isnt the 2000 the total server cap rather than a zonal cap? An MMO having a zone cap of 2000 but other zones having different caps would be a first.

 

[NZXT30]

Nice steam player count and it keeps rising. MMOs are still in huge demand devs are leaving so much money on the table.

 

[Tombstone]

yup, 2000 is the total server cap, not the zonal one. They have said that in the days to come they will ease the total server cap up to 3000

 

[Clairvoyant]

Wow 3000, thats a lot not.
