[@soodurtyttv]

"What happens is, you get stomped and then you remember that a lot more than you remember all the... you know... semi close matches." I reject this statement. I have done nights on stream where I collect the score data for every OPR and the results are more than 2/3s of the matches being a stomp. This is data with me being on the winning team or losing team. 11 out of 16 matches should not be a stomp. We should not have matches where one side has 3 healers, and the other side has 0. It should NEVER happen. I've had games where my team has ZERO frontline and the other team has 8 medium/heavy bruisers... This should also NEVER happen.

[@Zamn-NW]

There should not be matches where healers make that much of a difference. Healers are too impactful.

[@fernindinelce2945]

Therefore they could make this like the groupfinder, you just select your class and than start browsing for an opr/arena.

[@ThomasIkemann]

​@@fernindinelce2945 Should be doable as soon as Cross World OPR works

[@soodurtyttv]

@@fernindinelce2945 I agree with this as long as there is a verification process. That way you don't have people queuing up as healer when they are not.

[@icejoe6534]

unfortuanlet this can and does happen bcuz the mode doesnt have a slot system.. they just need to make it like the dungeon LFG where u choose "tank""melee dps" "ranged dps" "healer" "supprort"

[@janikcodes]

The game needs performance improvements & a new item system. So real rewarding progression & unique identity for items & attributes, perks, . .

[@p3rformer]

Gear Identity, yes! I would love stats on items and perks for uniques/sets

[@luthfanger1464]

Attributes being added to gearsets should be a high priority

[@Drewzbooze]

Or high level talents that impact game play. Currently bored with gear

[@geofgivens]

Wow, it looked on discord like the most popular questions, or nearly so, were about the pending "gear reset", but not a single word here. I'm usually pro-NW and pro-devs, but that was a very disappointing omission.

[@icejoe6534]

they said the nex ttime they talk itll be about the expansion... patience dude

[@quasak5830]

no performance issues adressed?

[@zargisan9017]

This is my biggest issue with the game. OPR is unplayable for me.

[@iknightragei]

I appreciate you trying to be more open with the community but I felt like I learnt nothing from this this 10 minute video other than you are thinking about a lot. Either select some questions you can actually answer or dont waste our time.

I definitely have to agree with this sentiment

[@eso6543]

Agreed.

[@w1ldcard743]

They literally didn’t answer anything 😂🙈…. Don’t get me wrong! I love the game but if they want more people to come back and the game not to die they need to start pulling their fingers out! 25k players ain’t a lot for an mmo! Is it impossible to get players back? … no But is it impossible for them to ever get 900k players again like at launch? Probably yes! Not many games have turned it around and got a massive player base back! .. i can think of final fantasy online! That’s about it in recent times New world has the bare bones to be a really great game but they need to start delivering instead of just telling us they’re thinking about it or working on it They ain’t got time to work on it .. the games playerbase is too low for an mmo .. they need to start producing

[@jesuschris9543]

Lol the community will then attack them for ignoring the most popular feedback

[@Drewzbooze]

Who’s coming back for seasonal content? I really really hope the devs change the gear to have a drastic impact and get players excited for drops. This team seems content with the current player base. As a fan I’ve moved on. I’ll wait till gear set bonuses Super fun talents and or drastic changes to the boring endless grind

[@IncomingAnomaly]

30 day gain is 22.54%.

[@Drewzbooze]

@@IncomingAnomaly May 14k July 13k yep hand picking stats works both ways.

I see no reason in even trying the new sand worm trial. You get the same kind of gear from that as you do everything else. 625 GS with the same boring ass perks.

[@IncomingAnomaly]

@@Drewzbooze oh okay. So if it was -22.54% in the past 30 days the game could be seeing an uptick?

[@prakulrathnakar]

What the game could be fun with: 1) Atleast 3 OPR maps. Each map should have different modes of gameplay. (Cap the point, cap flag, defend a castle etc) 2) Way more arena maps. And you should be able to choose what map you want to play instead of it being on a stupid rotation cycle. 3) Mounts. 4) More expeditions with more than 2 bosses and mechanics. 5) More badass raids. 6) Cool Rewards for home owners and people who love decorations 7) Make the buff and debuff bar READABLE 8) Swapping gearsets should also have attributes being able to swap 9) Maybe a dufferent type of invasion (Angry earth team would be cool) 10) A map or area filled with ancient giants and world boss. Feel free to add.

[@TbyBr]

Meantime I have to rollback my Nvidia driver for last year because it became almost impossible to play with huge fps drops even in setups better than mine

[@smokestack7942]

Happy to hear PvP is on the radar and look forward to hearing more!

[@Zandalism]

the real question is do you plan to try to get the population back or do you plan to just add a paid expansion in for the 15,000 players that exist..... 1.66% that is all that's left since the game started maybe we should work on getting that population back. essentially we've lost 98% of our player base!!

[@aporti5019]

There should be 2-3 different OPR maps and you should be able to choose what class you are going to play (for example healer or front line melee) so that it is more balanced.

[@jameshoch41]

TLDR; Q: How are you going to go about fixing/changing (insert change here) and when can we expect it? A: Well, here's how the game currently works, and we think we've done a good job. There's nothing more we can share about it. Next question. Literally got nothing out of this video.

[@ommaarlak6815]

honestly the devs looks sad ! i mean there is no excitement anymore, they know that if the game doesn't have a good player count by the end of year ! it will mean its over for new world

[@Centripital1]

My friends and I are PVE centric players. We love raiding in WoW, and we dabble in PVP only to help out friends we've made along the way. I would love an expansion to come out with a wow-style raid, a 10-man "dungeon" that features multiple bosses with multiple difficulties and chase items. Add chase items to these bosses (rare weapon drop, cosmetic crafting drop, mount), add a weekly lockout and I know several PVE focused players would flock back to the game. Add achievements that are meaningful and challenging, and that would help ensure the PVE population returns and has a goal to pursue.

[@JoyP09]

Dads like me dont have a lot of time to farm pvp gears and mats or level trade skills.. but enjoy NW's pvp a lot. Hope you have something for us too !

[@HakimRepTheLay]

3.5k hours in game since launch. been on a break for a little less than a year now. I would really love some new pvp game modes and maps. once you guys do that I will come back. additionally,, with buffs and nerfs and how you craft/aquire gear makes it really frustrating if your main build becomes unplayable or abilities and mechanics change when you build gear around a mechanic. i really miss this game but its hard to play when the rules change constantly. i can suck it up as long as you provide more pvp maps and game modes.

[@icejoe6534]

bro buffs/nerfs/time/expansions/ and gameplaychanges will ALWAYS make gear absolete.. thats jus gaming

[@HakimRepTheLay]

@@icejoe6534 not as how extreme its been on this game. Once i had all my gear maxed on refresh evasion it gets nerfed into the ground it takes too long to make a build and by the time you make it its obsolete. Musk and rapier used to be my jam then they nerfed it into the ground. I was going to make a new build but just the thought of grinding all the gear was overwhelming enough for me to say. Ima pause here and wait for more pvp verity before i waste more time

about limit of icons on the bar, how difficult could that be? the bar has a limit, just increase the limit. "really complex UI", yeah right.

[@iZeroBR]

Where did you get that this is the priority of the community? The game is crashing, from the loading failure, the OPR is in chaos, ZERO balance. And make a speech about what weapon you PVE can be added in OPR!???? The truth is that you ignored the community and this video is very clear about that!

It's really going to take some good updates to bring me back. How are things like name change and a barber shop still only being "talked about"?

[@lifeinthefoyer8687]

Some of these questions point out massive deficits in gamer's ability to ask an honest question while not fusing it with something quite insulting. I don't understand this. You can ask about seasonal content while not describing it as fake content. It's temporary content. Calling it fake is just rude. These devs want to please the player base, insulting them just makes them resentful.

[@TreyWheeler]

I don't think you're wrong--but I suspect that AGS is picking these questions intentionally as they are pointed, and AGS doesn't want to look like they're cherry-picking and avoiding hard topics.

[@Astrum11]

Oh, please. They have bigger issues than how questions are worded.

I've been capped at 100k azoth salt for a year more or less, even when I decided to do some PvP content I never really went under 80k, but after Season 2 launched, I went straight down from 100k to 10k, and now I'm struggling to even buy all the rewards that appear. Azoth Salt def needs a buff in drop rates!

[@SpaCe-jr9bz]

0 discussion on the umbral system and how it is affecting new players, which has been a consistent issue with me bringing on new players. Hoping to see some info or opinions from the devs on why this was the system they decided to go with. Daily caps on items to get gypsums and gypsums themselves doesn't feel user friendly for new or old players. How confusing the expertise system is for newer players, and how so many newer players waste gypsums on non 625 weapons missing out on a lot of umbral shards early on, and how a lot of new players come to the game for PVP and don't build a PVE set first which puts them behind by weeks for m10 grinding (which is still a 3 runs to 2 pieces of armor ratio). I do hope we can get something around these topics with the mutation changes, ward/bane/resilient changes, and the rebalancing/reworking on raids to make them more consistent with enemy type (ie Black powder having 3 faction types of enemies)

[@IncomingAnomaly]

I would agree with this the week umbrals entered the game, it was terrible at the start. Now I just vibe and play the game for a few hours and I've got a ton of gypsum casts. Plus being able to to crank 7 casts on one item is huge. It's mathematically 7X faster than it used to be so idk if you want people to hit max gear score in a day or what. Also, the gear score numbers are next to each equipment slot, what's there to be confused about lol?

[@SpaCe-jr9bz]

@@IncomingAnomaly 1. The umbral system isn't affecting those of us who have been here from release, its affecting the new players who are testing out gear and get punished for not knowing what they want to play & the proper perks for it. As far as I'm concerned, as someone with an excess of shards, I am speaking for the dozens of new players I've brought in who get "noob taxed" into wasting gypsum orbs and umbrals on gear that will need to be replaced. God forbid they come in completely fresh and don't have someone informing them on these annoying to grind, daily limited drops. 2. The gear score numbers next to the gear isn't the issue, its that 625 casts drop 400 umbrals vs anything below that. Newer players do not know that, and many many of them work to upgrade every weapon without realizing they are wasting the majority of their early orbs.

Kind of let down to have a Q&A with a bunch of "we're considering it" "nothing to speak on" as all the answers. If you're comfortable telling us things are "complex" be comfortable explaining in more detail or just don't comment on it. More open honesty goes a long way.

[@Manc268]

The 'solo' expedition is probably right.. keep it group play but yes, ive found it a struggle to complete regulars such as Forge & Tempest with random groups on most servers ive been on. They seems to be no patience if there is more than 1 wipe.. The standard is actually quite good & a challenge but some boss mechanics and/or luck seem to be very cruel at times for regular content & can leave newer/less experienced players feeling low when another random run falls apart, missing out on some needed loot drops & making it a struggle to complete their main questline due to other players quitting a group. Please do not make them too easy, just maybe slightly reduce some types of damage, to allow for 1 or 2 mistakes in the boss fights. I also find putting 'buff's on myself before group content a bit of a pain (more so when inventory is full). 1 to 3 foods, dot protection, incense, honing stones, coatings.. thats a lot of scrolling & click's to be ready for combat. Can we 'favourite' any of these somewhere for easier access or have 1 click for 5 buffs would be great. It also runs out too fast. A few wipes in dungeons can be 3 or 4 of these foods & honing stones wasted & coatings are used in pairs.. they are all awkward to make in huge numbers so please take some stress out the crafting/supply & increase the time of some buffs. The new purple food is ok only for Constitution & i feel i wasted my rare rabbit meat on making some, can we also have improved versions of the 24/16 food please? Potions can be slotted in gear slots but the food is not worth the slot, and coatings usually have no room either, but maybe some extra slots in the gear sets to allow for the small differences in builds & buffs needed. If you are changing the ward/banes in to more potions then more slots will be needed for sure. I feel i already have to sacrifice one item i need every time.

I feel that the achievements page is pretty underutilized.

[@DukeSloth]

I'm glad to hear that Fresh Starts likely won't be happening near the same time as the expansion this year. As much as they were part of bringing players back, they also ended up scattering the players/friends between multiple server types at a time where many players would've come back either way. I personally think Fresh Starts as some form of temporary format in a period when there isn't as much other new content would work a lot better. For example, there could be a daily level cap so everyone would get to experience large volumes of players in low level zones at the same time and much more open world PvP resulting from that, similar to how it was on launch when leveling was generally slower. There could also be a set date when Fresh Starts get merged into legacy, so there isn't any need to keep supporting them if they die out and they get treated more as a temporary fun event.

[@ritchmedia7132]

agreed. it was the seasonal experience before seasons was implemented. i like the idea of a set date for merge.

[@larkwyll7351]

Level caps arent the answer. Providing worthy things for individuals and groups to fight over is whats needed to provide alternative motivations for players not to speed level as their only priority. Level caps without worthy objectives and rewards to fight over would just result in players logging off the game or switching servers to play on another of their toons.

[@DukeSloth]

​@@larkwyll7351 Lack of level caps were a major factor in why Fresh Start PvP became incredibly stale incredibly quickly. The first 3 days or so were super fun low level PvP, but lots of pvp-focused people needed to rush to 60 to be able to win wars in the territory they were able to get (some even leveled unflagged for that reason). Meanwhile, the players who did a lot of open world PvP and didn't care about territories fell behind because it's not XP-efficient and were soon left in very empty early level areas with minimal flagged players. If people log off or switch to their main, good for them. They probably don't care all too much about the Fresh Start experience in that case and can get what they like on regular servers (and could just make an alt there). It would still incentivize plenty of people to open world PvP more in the first place because there would be less of a purpose in just logging in to grind for levels and less of an urge to rush 60 asap for war pvpers.

[@larkwyll7351]

@@DukeSloth Again, there needs to be open world objectives and prizes to fight over to be worth the effort. It used to be flagging up for elite chest runs that was a main driver but thats petered out. Its the same issue with why open world pvp barely exists on live servers now. Youre missing the core issue for why there isnt open world pvp in NW. It isnt level caps. Ex: Great Cleave pvp track release. Pvp was born and alive and well. AGS subsequently nerfs player perceived worthwhile rewards and open world pvp died, same for flagged elite chest runs. The core issue of oprn world pvp being vacant in the game currently is that it is unsupported by lack of scarce open world flagged prizes worth fighting over. Its what Albion Onlinr gets right and this game does not. You can start a fresh account in that game and within an hour or two be riding your donkey out to the BZ (black zone) to take your chancd at gaining early, relative to your level, riches. And risk your life and limited possessions un the process to other players. All of that is missing in NW. You basically have fort capture for buffs and control for terry pushing, and duels outside of WW. Thats NW's open world pvp scene. Dont grt me wrong, I know you know this last part. I think youre stuck on a symptom rather than the core stemming reason open world pvp in NW is a dud compared to other games. If you want their to be life brought to it there need to be prizes worth the effort to motivate players to engage in that sandbox. There currently isn't so there is no pvp. Since there are no prizes for killing another player while being flagged during levelling its closer to griefing in this game then good sport as there's little reason to do so. Might as well duel outside of WW. There's nothing to fight over that's worthwhile to care about. There has to be stakes or it will remain dead and not perceived as content.

[@DukeSloth]

​@@larkwyll7351 There are prizes for killing other players while flagged during leveling. That's what they introduced Brutish gear and the crafting mats for. Plus you get PvP track/Azoth salt which now comes with some pretty good rewards. But all of what you're describing just incentivizes open world PvP in general. It's unrelated to Fresh Start. You can have those additions on a legacy server without needing Fresh Start. There's also barely any difference between you doing them at level 60 on legacy or on FS. A lot of players specifically return for the lower level PvP on Fresh Start, before everyone has BiS gear and is fully specced. I personally know 10 people who returned for FS PvP and then dropped the game again a couple of days later when PvP died down. In order to avoid that, you need level caps.

[@p1rhvm-mi5ir]

why no one talk about luck perk that its not balanced at all?:D

So happy to hear about more open world PVP opportunities! New World open world pvp is really the most fun I've ever had in a game, we just need more!

[@FirstAscentV11]

It would be nice if the trials had group finder, especially now with hatchery and sand wurm. Also it would be nice if there was a menu tab to access all active lobbies in all the group finders so we can go to one spot if we're looking to join a group instead of having to click through the map.

[@rangikumatsumoto3485]

please talk about how unfair flamethrower is, doesn't require any player skill to use to great effect especially in 1v1 and 3v3 scenarios and frankly just doesn't belong in game in its current state, at least talk about it enough so that we know you recognise this problem

[@kindathor]

How can you allow old players coming back to the game to log in, trigger a THIRTY DAY COOLDOWN and then tell them, oh sorry there's nothing we can do. You have to go make a whole new character if you want to play with your friends or WAIT AN ENTIRE MONTH How is this acceptable......?!?!?!?!?!?!?

[@ohagan84]

That's 11 minutes of nothing said, maybe, we might do and someday, sums it up 😮‍💨.

[@dabbel9]

Please hear more to your community... so much potential, so less activity from devs...

[@ViliGiX]

PLSSSS add change attributes in gear sets 😤

[@kebablumineux]

F2p when ?

[@abab0015]

Please fix game performance

[@zzzJOEB]

The way you they talk about wanting everyone involved in a push lmao. I know it's just gonna make people hate it. People don't want pvp while pushing they want that conflict asap. There is zero reward besides the 500 gear score drops from kills. So useless

[@Linus1871]

What they need to do is to make the gear yo can buy from the faction npc relevant. This way i could login, pvp and get good gear. I just dont care about pve. Make it like in wow back then. You pvp, you get some kind of tokens, you go the gear npc and you buy good items for every slot.

[@godias33]

Yes we need pvp zones

[@motionsheepz]

What about the fact that PVP gear is almost always heavy anti healer gear

[@krobill2]

Thank you for all of your hard work on this game. I had to take a few month break from this game due to life commitments but I came back this week and was so excited about the new changes I’ve seen in the game. ❤

[@Keep-It-Calm]

I enjoy this game I play it on and off now, I want that desire to play it non stop again.

[@omeganautstk9951]

Currently the armor in the PVP track feels like you’re trolling us. I often see a combination like 25 focus on a heavy piece with a random sword perk. I’d like to see competitive armor return to the track so I stand a chance against day 1 players who are always in the leaderboards.

[@Ravenshard1378]

more cash shop and non-engaging content. AGS has placed NW in maintenance mode.

[@DrGod-ut4es]

Please increase server size!

[@prasinoz3]

No, bad idea

[@prasinoz3]

@@tzunnynib There will be no reason to have a megaserver.

[@annedray2506]

@@tzunnynibhave you ever tried gathering rare resources? I can barely find stuff with 1500/2500 online. 2500 is a good number, we just need cross server matchmaking for everything. And to have hot zones for open world pvp. Both of those are coming.

[@kringekobold]

I disagree with seasonal content in general for New World. It just feels like another source of FOMO that takes way too long to complete for the lackluster rewards you get. I'd much rather have limited-time events/seasons be much easier to complete with the focus on development being on permanent content.

[@TheCoreGameplay]

Sheesh my hype just got downed I need to be revived.... No actual info about what's coming😢

[@JoyP09]

Also, to get players, you need to spend some $$ on advertising. I dont see any advertisements of this game on TV/KZbin etc... Please advertise after implementing changes to the main story questline

[@sarphusgaming3542]

I like the seasonal content. I think the biggest problem the game faces is that the incentives to do a lot of content are pretty limited. Even if content is fun people won't do it if there isn't an incentive to do it. The worm is a prime example. It's a good fight but top players are less interested in doing it because the loot isn't really useful and is likely to be trash in season 3. On top of that the leaderboard for it is just completions. Top tier players have NO problem completing it but they don't want to do the kind of reps required to be "top 10". Also, simply having a vacation in a season means you are not a top 10 contender. This is the wrong kind of incentives to create. You should have done the worm based on time and you should have made the whole raid group at the same level on the leaderboard. I guess you didn't think so many groups would complete it but it's kind of a pointless leaderboard as it currently stands.

[@z543]

We learned nothing from this vid only “we are looking into it” Don’t do that again pls yall 😔 Give us viable solid answers

[@LukaSauperl]

I love these! Do more and longer! :D

[@dmitrydzvinko8970]

No fresh start servers this year, that's really sad news.

[@w1ldcard743]

Why is it? They have 2k players split between current servers! There obviously no point opening new servers when they’re struggling to fill the current ones Ffs 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@nathanaelink]

like these, thank you

[@Lmfaocj]

Rip fresh start for this year. I was expecting it to come with the expansion. This sucks,

[@tommauro3052]

New player here. Been playing for about 2 weeks. I’m level58 . I really do enjoy playing but it almost feels like I’m playing with no real anchor on why I’m leveling my trades , if gear is worth it or how the hell do I manage to craft worthwhile items. I just have massive amount of resources and gear /weapons saved but not sure what to do. I’m not gonna stop playing but I certainly don’t want to feel so out of place.
