People were killing themselves because it's the best way to move around the world, so it's probably butt.

I can't trust developers that have decades worth of material to study in order to determine what works and what's fucking stupid, and then choose the fucking stupid.

Having not played it, it sounds like a mixed bag of good and bad. Its probably fine for a $40 game.

Not sure of the final verdict, but about the only thing I know about it at all is that it apparently looks and feels like a last generation game?

It seems just okay...which isn't really good enough for an MMO. I don't think it'll last too long, people are gonna be bored real fast from what I've seen/heard.

I have heard it's in a bit of a content drought already. I did see some PvE content which is what I'm all about, speedrunning dungeons and raids and stuff. I wasn't too impressed with what I watched.

Apparently the game is just completely fundamentally broken at the base level. Basically the entire game code needs to be rewritten from the ground up.

I have 132 hrs across 2 weeks, the game itself is kinda good, maybe one of the better MMOs( i dont like mmos) out there and I ran into very few issues on the technical side. But due to the way the Factions are set up it very easily leads into one faction getting bullied, my server faction Covenant is the least picked out of all the factions total and in my server we only had 2 settlements and lost one due to being totally outnumbered and didn't reclaim it for 1 1/2 weeks and not having territory inflicts a very annoying penalty like increased fast travel cost and increased Fees along with having to live with whatever tax is put by the ruling clan. The War system is cool at first untill yo urealize that you need to be a high-level(probably max at this point) min-maxer to play them because they are pretty important.

The weapon balance is ass, the Warhammer has chain stuns that can lock you in place AND slow you for several second, the heal staff+heavy armor build will make you nigh unkillable unless heavily outnumbered. The two-handed axe also has insane damage and also has a stupid good opeing move that doubles as an escape along with a 4s ranged stun, keep in mind other stuns with the exception of Warhammer all last for less than 2

Other weapons will pale in comparison to these even with proper builds.

The game was fun in the beginning when everyone was on an even playing field but even after week 1 the amount of people flagged for PvP dropped to nearly zero due to the risk of running into a high level sweat or gank squad.

I don't see the game lasting, my server faction is nearly dead, my factions unofficial leaders have all left and now play other games.

It sounds like a lot of the issues the game has are just baked so deep into the game's code, that pretty much the entire game needs to be rewritten. So... I don't know. I honestly don't see this game lasting. But who knows, maybe Amazon will throw some of that $trillion they have lying around and fix it.

Maybe I was off by a few days but yeah I didn't have anything to do and neglected to do alot of stuff I should have been doing, which I was gonna mention, that's another reason why I stopped, I felt like i was wasting time anytime I played it and felt I qwas getting addicted which happens easily to me.

Well they fixed the invulnerability bug. But in the process they broke the ability to buy and sell on the auction house. The vibe I get from the subreddit is the game is basically still in alpha but being presented as a full release.

I personally have no interest it in myself but I can say that from my guild members in FFXIV who said they would be "inactive" to play New World, they sure came back to FFXIV pretty quickly.

The game code was written by amateurs. It's an online application where the end user client has TOTAL authority. It's insane.

Not surprised, I also wanted to point out that tons of gamebreaking bugs and issues people are complaining about have been in the game for several months during testing phases, I can personaly say none of the issues from the closed beta were fixed and they even delayed the game by another month after it.

So AGS had to completely disable all trading in the game today because of the gold dupes. And in the process they created a new gold dupe by attempting to build a town upgrade, the game won't accept the gold, so it will give back the same amount of gold to the player despite not taking any away. I can't see how the game can survive at this point.

They turned the economy back on without fixing the duping issues XD They just basically put a meter on duping and said "if you dupe more than this unspecified amount you will be instantly banned" that's not a solution. Dupers will just figure out that value, dupe to just under it, take all the gold off, and repeat. How are they THIS incompetent? Can they even identify and fix the issue? Do they even understand what's going on in their code that's causing the dupes to happen? People are STILL discovering new dupes by complete accident. There is something fundamentally wrong with the way the game handles data.

I played in 2014 and loved it but people sucked at dodging shapes on the ground.
BcoB 6-10 had came out and I dont mind it taking time for people to learn but some people were failing 8-10hrs into attempts.
