Why The FFA PvP Zone Is Worth It! (and how it works) - New World Aeternum

[@asalistic]

Somehow they combined chest runs with pvp...

[@prettiiundead]

All the data from the gold farmers indicates people love chest runs. 😂

[@MarkD-pl4fu]

When devs have no ideas how to actually make a fun game, then they force PvP, bloat, and grinding mats on everyone.

Some people will just teams up and will KOS others passing by in a 5v1 (or more) ratio. Hopefully AGS has planned something when this situation will happen.

Can we get a video about PvP builds please for us returning players

[@WorshipMMO]

If you were a pvpr at release you know chest run fights were amazing. The ambushes you could set up, the fighting for Siren chest run rights every night. This pvp was some of the funnest open world PvP.

[@sellvistar7905]

We've heard your feedback, so we will be redoing the new player early game experience for the 20th time.

[@winterhearted6780]

Looks like a really fun activity with good replayability.

[@mightymort915]

Love the look of the Goldcursed weapons! I just hope they update the armor to be on the same level visually.

[@fatjay9402]

Funny that you make a video about the PVP zone .. but showing how to not do the PVP zone by not doing PVP. Maybe we see the problem right away before it starts ?... It would be such a ez fix if this PVP zone would be like in Division 2 that its not on the same saver but makes a new instants where you can 100% team up

[@vereor_nox]

The PVP zone is level 65+ and you could only level to 30 in the beta. So players were more worried about being one hit killed by the enemies then PVP.

[@fatjay9402]

@@vereor_nox I dout this gonna be much diffrent then they re level 65+

[@Dysghast]

100% people are gonna wear the same cosmetic armour and use discord so they can collude. Sniper gank squads will just be camping the chests.

[@terryems88]

I lived here in the closed beta. I love the FFA zone. It's fun and rewarding.

[@naomi-nada]

Super creative stuff from the devs. Very cool and based. I cant wait to kneel down for minutes at a time during pvp and loot some shitty coins. Yay! ❤❤❤

[@bonbarmandrink]

Wait until you bow down and get shot at by musketers premades

Duke messing up 6 and 7 made me think of Monty Python and the Holy Hand Grenade "1, 2, 5..." "no 3 sire.." haha

[@MikeJohnson-nr4yo]

So the hard core pvpers will camp the key spots on this ECR.

[@bennokuhn5255]

you can loot the tresure chest the next day after the cooldown ended again. No new tresure map needed.

[@JGburneraccount]

I really just want the game to do well but my love for it slowly turned to hate so really hoping this game can make a come back with this new update. Probably not though.

[@MrProbstandrew]

yeah, im really hoping that its not just a last cash grab.. opening to a whole bunch of new playas, who will buy the game, and will then stop after a year or so (after getting to endgame) so ags can milk all the console playas quick, before moving on to their other projects.. cuz it does seem like they only care about selling the console launch, and giving them a nice msq and leveling expierence, and thats about it.. cuz they have shown that they completely spit on the PC community now. we are worthless to them, and actually more of a pain. (they are activly trying to get rid of the few thousand hardcore playas, who been here from the start, who just really wanted NW to be what it could have been) they AGS dont seem to have any decent vision and plan for NW. no new content in a year, no roadmap, last roadmap they scratched half of it later.. they seem barely able to deliver a good running game, much less endgame content and an endgame loop, that keeps players engaged over years.. like other mmos. it was very clear what ags needed to do with NW, to make it a very succeful long term game, but ags either doesnt want to, or cant deliver the long time mmo we all wanted, with the best comabt system in any mmo to date! (well they also kinda ruined that noiw too, with the aim bot lock on sys. making the whole skilled pvp and skill ceilling basical dumbed down to stupid) *btw., u can quite easily tell what someones opinion is on NW.. just depends on how long they have been playing.. and by that i mean the amount of bullshit they have seen from ags, in so many ways.. the folks who havent been thro all that have a much more positive take.. and of course there are the streamers and folks whos business it is..(like trick trick) who have spent so much time and rss building up this game and community and discord and build websites, and NW twitch playa base and what not.. that they still stay and try to cope and have a positive hopefull attitude.. even tho they did that multiple times already, only to be bashed and dissapointed each time.. AGS went from apoligising every month on vids, to now completly ignoreing us. i want NW to be a blast.. but this toxic GF and relationship has dissapointed and even lied so many times.. i have no faith in them in any way anymore. due to the last years.. and they would luv to see us the old boyfriend just dissapear, so they can "start over" their bull with the next ones..

[@z543]

That’s how I truly feel. I feel so conflicted on playing it again fresh start or not, I feel so conflicted 😞

[@Generalkillaman]

New update? Lol

[@JGburneraccount]

@@Generalkillaman yes. It's a new update. It adds a few features but its an update I wouldn't say it's an expansion.

[@irongeir3437]

The looting of treasure chest is wayyyy to slow. Imagine with all the pvp going on you trying to loot these chest lol. Needs to be more like the drops in other pvp games that just open right away and stuff drops around you that you need to pick up or something similar.

[@mrwillham5393]

idk how i feel about the cursed chests in the zones, atleast its ffa so im guessing even if people group up to camp chests they cant really aoe attack or else theyll hit the people theyre camping with. either way its still gunna be a pain in the ass bc we all know people gunna camp them things day an night

[@MrGrimord]

Looks like the most easy way to get end-game gears.

[@everlonggaming1966]

a new chest run but now you can get killed for it ... much innovation many wows!

[@MrProbstandrew]

wait, so the chests, in the ffa zone, are not like the mechanics of all other open world chests? .. they get looted and are then empty? for awhile till it resets, or how does it work?

[@saiintZz]

i asked myself the same tho.. Would be pretty shitty tbh.

[@mrwillham5393]

knowing ags thats probably how it works :') but we can only hope that it doesnt work like that. if anything it should be that its per person. so if someone loots a chest they cant loot it again. that way atleast if someone gets you off a chest an takes it you still have a shot at getting it.

[@HKLYTUNG]

Seems like the Darkzone in The Division.

[@black-y7v]

looks fun

[@GR33Nday2]

Interesting, so a chest can't be looted at the same time by 2 person

[@FinchFinley]

Useless rewards just as I was telling AGS in closed beta feedback. Nothing changed, this is a joke at this point.

[@Altarknight]

so as i can see , as new lvling server dont need to skill up any prof just loot those things in pvp zone from lvl 20-30 what ever u can have acces , then use them daily until u not lvl up 65 then u just craft them daily , food and other consumable's u can craft daily from low lvl...well sound interesting at lvl 65 could be full lvl 725 whit zero profession whit 0 crafting skill or farming skill !

[@mrtendollarman6157]

FFA is a very lazy way to introduce some " new " way of pvp. If they implemented in a way that is meaningfull, like in warhammer, where there is pvp against each faction, have objectives, maybe casles sieges, capture and hold some flags to get points for your faction, maybe, just maybe some of us will come back. This FFA thing is just nothing.

[@fooojin]

So where is the new OPR map though? 😂

[@planetg2125]

Come one AGS....PvP players want structured battle zones to fight in with progression and rewards. 10v10 or 20v20 is ideal NW Mode because it allows all builds. Should have just made more 20v20 maps and tweaked for balance. Should have made 3v3 a progression mode where you win and work through maps to a KoH which rewaarded the holder. Its so basic game design

[@johnweig4667]

No? I want open world chaos everyone for themself.

[@planetg2125]

@johnweig4667 doesn't work because it's a zerg fest if faction, and no progression if ffa

[@admcpTV]

What are those rewards good or if the perks are random or shit as in the named items Duke showed?

[@MrKamikaze1337]

one of the perks are random. i'm a healer and most of that gear is kinda meh compared to Prismatic Scarab crafts where u can choose any 3 perks u want.

[@CaptainAnkara]

sounds like a toxicity extravaganza

[@lifebrookestyle2887]

Thank you for talking about this 🙌🏻 I feel like it’s such a big deal for the game and no one is really talking about it enough!

[@alex1212456]

You can grind pvp blindfolded now

[@W9HJBill]

I think that chest will still be camped by PvP griefers, either by individuals or entire groups. I think this zone will be a waste of time for anyone who isn't a hardcore PvPer ... which as AGS has said, is less than 2% of the population.

[@ArturHawkwing351]

That is not at all what they said and they suck at analysing data anyway

[@vevymotivation]

that;s not even close to what they said... and that;s why the chest can only be looted by 1 person , they can go as zerk of 50 ppl who cares they still can't loot all of them that;s actually good against zergs.

[@bonbarmandrink]

As a pvper myself i can say i wont loose my time and getting tbagged by the "Luigi gang"

[@fooojin]

Playing the game as intended is greifing, got it. Don't pvp in pvp zone you damned greifers!

[@Mikromanus]

So... its "make strongest players even stronger" game logic. What will we get next? PvP GATHERING buff? :) /s

[@kruze187]

This is litterally gonna be a zerg fest. They need to impliment the same system as runescape wilderness has. Add multi the deeper you go in, this will actually have the zergs fights each other. Make the starting area of the ffa zone 1 v 1 only. To do this you should focus on the dueling system that is already in the game. You cant attack people currently in duels so the system is already there just needs to be tweaked. Just my opinion. But the devs should know this already

[@Cernunn0s90]

I'll play it if they remove aim lock.

[@z543]

My boi Duke doesn’t sound too happy doing NW content tho 😞

[@williamatkins3465]

Are the chests static spawns? I fear spawn camping.

[@MarkD-pl4fu]

Don't worry, spawn camping high value loot never happens in video games. This is also a free-for-all PvP zone, so company players will obviously need to tab target ranged on some poor dude just wanting a magic coconut.

[@erickfernando9411]

this is getting more n more fucking confusing...lol

[@weakish]

Imagine if this game would have just stayed like it was in alpha instead of turning into this weird wow clone with action pvp and no content.

[@kensapi]

I managed to get 1 725 helm with the 5% chance in the beta.

[@LiamHYT]

12 weeks for 1 artifact? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 jeez

[@bweach7393]

this update is great idk what these warloggers are smoking

[@MrKamikaze1337]

the main problem of the update is crafting side, u can't craft 725 GS or upgrade old BiS/Named gear that u already have plus, the only craftble ones is from gorgon's raid but it's limited to 2 slot item. u can upgrade artifacts at least Plus for now, AGS didn't confirmed if u can drop 725 GS on Mutated expeditions and Arenas drops/weekly chests, OPR only will have a chance to drop 725 GS. And the Gorgonite Inductor can only be used to create 725 GS items from the raid only. The game has more glaring issues like the tier 5 item farming that is almost impossible sometimes.

[@kafka420uk]

rather play Concord 😎

[@bonbarmandrink]

[@MarkD-pl4fu]

At least Sony did the correct thing and refunded everyone's money. I don't think Sony PlayStation will like the complaints about AGS and New World.

[@yipp_yippee]

So I can use a key which I can purchase for 5 Mystic Doubloons to open a chest with 500 which is outside the FFA zone. Where do I get the initial 5 from, only inside the PVP FFA zone chests?

[@bonbarmandrink]

I mean the pvp zone is gonna be camped by organized hords of musketers/bowers. Lets not lie to ourself this content is gonna die in a matter of days and we all know ags wont do anything to combat grouping.

[@the_barbarian6689]

I wish they would just have a pvp always flagged server too. Maybe no killing in towns.

[@sirgrumpsalot]

F*ck the new PVP zone and forcing people to do shit they dont like and not have fun with just to obtain materials/gear/weapons which are not available anywhere else. I hate when games do that crap.

[@MarkD-pl4fu]

Amazon should just pull the pug on AGS. Now AGS will have a chance to ruin the brand name with console players in this cash grab. Meanwhile, bugs from the fake DLC have been there for a year. AGS never even did the "DLC" theft reintroduction correctly. The whole game is disjointed and much of the game pointless due to "rewards" being trash. The last year, AGS should have actually attempted to make the DLC worth the money they stole from players. Oh no, on to the next poorly thought-out cash grab bloat experiment. Before the DLC theft cash grab, AGS said bloat was going to removed, but now there more bloat and mats grind than ever. Soon AGS will add this trash. Muh magic coconut! Anyone buying this is just wasting money, because they should know AGS' record and lack of quality.

[@Kay-low]

So confused why people are saying this game ran out stuff to do so you’re telling me that you finish every side quest every side mission every NPC in the game is that what they are telling me bc that’s low-key hard to believe😅😅

[@spiritwyrmk8622]

Can't wait for people to grief in this island. It's so predictable. I do love the fact that the coconut doesn't drop on death though.

[@MarkD-pl4fu]

I laughed, when the devs found-out players were switching fort caps... six months after it was happening in season 1. Season 3 they brought in the fort lock for an hour. Devs always trying to force players to play the way devs want, but the devs understand nothing about video games.
