New World MMO

I just can’t do it anymore…

It shows how desperate people are for a new mmo because when you take a step back this is absolute trash.

I can’t remember playing a game so shallow in my life. Almost makes Elite Dangerous feel deep.

3 weapon skills and 6 in total with weapon swapping. All boring as hell, the combat is appalling, blocking works sometimes, dodging inconsistent and no animation cancelling. For a pvp focused game I’d embarrassing.

The world looks nice but doesn’t matter what level you’re at be it 5 or 50 or what zone you’re in everything looks the same, no variety, nothing of interest.

Exact same with mobs, you fight the same thing at every stage, how many wolves have you killed?

Even the crafting isn’t exactly as in-depth as it wants you to believe.

The questing, oh Lord the questing. I have never seen anything so bad in my life. Run 3km and kill 6 wolves, then run back to turn in. Then we will send you to the same place to kill 6 enemies and open 6 chests, then run back again. Again from start to end game this is all you will do, spam your left clock and your boring 3 skills and boom rinse repeat for 60 hours.

At least PVP will be good, nope hardly anyone flags for it. At least I can wait in a list for 2 days to see if I’ll be accepted for some other shallow pvp event.

The mmo scene is so desperate for something new that this shallow, empty piece of trash is now 4th most played on steam. I’ll be lost how anyone can find this good to play, it’s a leave your brain at the door kind of game and even then it takes special level of switching off to tolerate it.

You're not wrong. This game does indeed show how desperate a section of the MMROPG fan base is.

Did they? I can have a character in an EU server and a different character in a US one. Did they say anything about transferring a current characters region or was it just implied/internet assuming?

.....

Bifrost straight on last night, no queue :eek:

They specifically said you could transfer between regions.
 
I'm mostly specced up on green gear focused on str/health or whatever that health based stat is called. Still using a regular common shield though. Only level 12 so a long way to go yet.

Well yeah they have already admitted it was mis-information.

However, who knows how many players went to another server so they didn't have to sit in the massive ques on the back of what was said by whoever that employee was. There is lots of complaining on the official forum.
 
Going to another server is one thing - going to a different region is another altogether.

I was surprised when they initially said you would be able to transfer across regions.

Thing is that it shouldnt really be all that difficult, the character names and company names are global, so there is no conflict possible with names on another region - which is usually one of the big issues in MMOs when region transfers are involved.

Quite a lot I'm guessing, I remember seeing lots of posts on various forums, even on this forum, where people were saying at the time "its ok, just roll anywhere and transfer over when the free transfers come in" , there are posts of that type even in just this thread and I've seen many more similar ones on other forums so I guess that quite a few people just rolled anywhere they could get on just to be able to level up

Limiting the amount of skills a player can choose to either 3 or 6 makes for dull and sterile gameplay as most folks can see with NW.

PvP focus in MMOs either needs to die or just let players go nuts. You can't balance PvP and PvE, bigger and better MMOs have tried and failed. Faction based PvP also needs to just go the way of the dodo, especially with PvE elements, it just doesn't make senses.

Agreed i never understood the fascination with PvP in MMO's. If you want good PvP thats balanced go play a dedicated game designed for it. Why split up the player base for sake of it.

I'll blame the game all I want when its hardly even using the GPU and 100% loading every single CPU on the market for no reason. I don't see how you can defend a game that isn't even utilizing the graphical performance of whatever GPU you have and instead loading everything to the CPU for some bizarre reason.

And if a MMO wants to incorporate faction v faction PvP, at least put in a mechanic which ensures each faction is approximately the same size eg. on a server of 2400 limit each faction to 800 players. Nothing worse than playing on a server where one faction has vastly superior numbers.
 
Thank god I only got to level 23 on US realm then ! what a complete ****** up ! Not going to play until they sort all these Q issues out..... and also the massive Power issues hitting Graphics cards . Run a test last night and my Power runs from 95 right up to 115 / 120 thats not normal ! especially when its set at 100

Wait for the expansion if you want more content. I'm guessing it's coming. But It's OK for now. Gonna atleast keep going for now.
