Greetings Adventurers,

We will be taking downtime 2022-01-19T07:00:00Z in your local timezone to address our Disabling of Character Creation.

Downtime is slated to last 3 hours (~180 minutes).

Thank you for your patience and understanding!

Constructive conversation about the PTR

I’ll check them out, thanks!!

And I agree, the forums or something needs to be reworked but I’d like to experience everything as it is to see what would really work and not work.

Character creation locked on all servers/regions

I’m sorry to hear that… I know my husband would be SUPER frustrated too. The team is hard at work fixing the problem so they can get new character creation up and running asap.

This is very helpful, thank you!

AGS WANTS this game to die

I’m sorry you feel so strongly negative about the game and appreciate you putting thought into the entire situation but I can assure you that AGS does not want the game to die. The team is currently growing and harder than ever working on the current and future gameplay of New World.

I’m absolutely not here to lessen anyone’s frustration towards their experience of the game but I would ask that instead we attempt to work together through some sort of constructive criticism. Assuming untruths really just kinda shuts people down, ya know? I’d like to know instead WHY you’re so upset?

But no one on the team wants New World to die.

Constructive conversation about the PTR

Oooooh okay, that makes sense and is a good idea, I’ll bring it up. Thanks!!

Constructive conversation about the PTR

I personally honestly have NO idea what drives people to play or not play on the PTR. Hence my question because when the devs brought it up last week it got me thinking. Sure, I can guess or assume but that doesn’t accomplish anything… so, figured I’d just ask! Thankfully everyone has been super helpful so far, including yourself! Thanks!

Constructive conversation about the PTR

We do listen, I promise, and we’re about to listen even more. The team is growing and more focused than ever. The theme for this upcoming push is bots, bugs and battlestar galatica… no, sorry, I’m kidding, I couldn’t help it haha. Bots, bugs and balance is the name of the game with this next big push. It’s not that we don’t WANT to fix stuff, but either time or resources makes it difficult and alot of fixes have already gone out. You do absolutely understand the current state of the game.

Constructive conversation about the PTR

Sadly I don’t think it would work out as well as you’d like if the community votes on things. If the forums give you any idea, players can be very strong with some of their ideas, especially when they start to have some ownership on it. I think it’s great to find a perfect balance of feedback from both sides and then overall balance into the game. As keep in mind… not all who play this game, speak on the forums.

Constructive conversation about the PTR

This is great feedback!! Thank you for listing it out and explaining. I know the azoth thing was talked about alot, so great to see it brought up again.

Constructive conversation about the PTR

Hahaha okay okay, that’s fair. I do get SO STRESSED when I only have like 2 pots of special dye… like how does one decide when to use it?!

Constructive conversation about the PTR

Definitely all great points, the arena is brought up alot.

Thank you!!

Constructive conversation about the PTR

Hahahaha fair!! I appreciate it! I think I was just more thinking out loud too but curious if you had strong thoughts about it. Thank you!

Constructive conversation about the PTR

Yes, but would that convince you to play on the PTR or just something you’d like to see?

Constructive conversation about the PTR

That’s totally fair feedback and the team is working hard on fixing this. We recently gathered a TON of information and questions from the PTR forums and brought it to the devs. Granted not ALL feedback is what the team is looking for, but we’re totally on the same page here. Hence why I’m starting to ask more and take more notes!

Constructive conversation about the PTR

Not sure if that would pertain to PTR but I completely understand what you mean. My husband hates tanking because of this. But more so, you’d like to test different mechanics that aren’t promised to go into the game?
