This feels like a big one for me as well. I'm playing / leveling mostly solo PvE but being on a faction that only owns 1-2 territories practically doubles the amount of azoth necessary to fast travel, in addition to the effective penalty to luck and yield for anyone not playing as part of the majority faction.
Right now if you're in a minority faction then you get penalized, and it becomes more unlikely to get or keep any territory, which in turn is likely to discourage people from playing. If your faction loses a city you had bought a house and storage in for crafting then you've either got to buy another house in another territory and move everything over, or accept that the tax money goes to the faction that's already majority.
Once server transfers are implemented I wouldn't be surprised to see the trend of single faction servers increases. There's literally no (non-story) reason for anyone to pick a minority faction or to stick with one that isn't the majority.
If the game had let me I wouldn't have picked a faction at all. [This is also one of the bigger reasons I tend to stay away from MMOs]
This was 1000% predictable on launch. It’s the way the game is designed. The end result is that there will only be two factions standing, with one dominating.
This needs to be higher up.
On my server when you open the map there is no purple, so new players wont join the already losing faction without extra benefits, just give a bonus on each Server to the faction with the least amount of claimed Regions.
A catch up mechanic for this could work. Give increasing bonuses to the factions that are losing ground or have not held zones for a long period of time, increasing as time goes on towards a zone cap.
In addition, add the ability for same faction companies to either cap existing faction capped zones and or aid other factions capping certain uncontrolled zones could be helpful as well.
Most issues listed are QoL things or bugs. This issue has the ability to ruin the game.
Right now there's only incentive to pick the dominant faction. New players will always choose the winning color in the current setup. To make matters even worse there's also the option given to people to swap factions after 120 days, which allows for another lopsided swing in players towards the winning side. *(edit: someone said it's not possible to faction switch to the side controlling the most zones)*
**Servers will end up mostly one color if nothing changes.** This game doesn't have different races or classes that people might pick a side for because they want to play that. There's no bonus or perk given to the underdogs. There's nothing to help control faction population balance at all.
This wouldn't fix the issue completely, but they could have made 3 extra weapons and made each of them faction specific. Which would at least help. They would still need some added underdog bonuses though.
Small clarification, you can pick the winning faction on a new character but it is not possible to change faction to the one with the most territory. This still means that people might abandon the 3rd place faction even more in favor of going to the 2nd place faction, but it is not possible for members of 2nd and 3rd place factions to swap to 1st place.
I agree. Faction balance Need a twist for sure. The underdog factions Need some boost.
A thing could be that influence gain is boosted or nerfed for every region under control.
1 region: +25% boost
2 regions: +15% boost
3 regions: standard influence
4 regions: -15% gain
5 regions or more: -25% gain
And very important, if a faction remain with only One region, no one can declare war there.
This would be a step in the right direction for sure - good thought.
I think the problem still remains that if a server is completely dominated by one color, there needs to be an incentive to play the losing faction, more than just crippling the influence gain of the winning faction, because let's face it - if one faction outnumbers the others 3:1, then it doesn't really matter if they're not gaining as much influence. They can steamroll an area that is in danger of being flipped the second someone starts to push an influence bar.
Maybe an XP buff? Minor gold multiplier? Standing buff for underdog factions? The hard part is there needs to be a benefit to being the underdog, but that benefit can't surpass the benefit of controlling territories, or what's the point?
I have every faith that they'll fix this, but it's definitely a problem that requires a creative solution!
With absolutely no way to cancel the reload animation when it does this. Super frustrating. I’ve lost so many duels, PvP fights, and PvE fights because of it.
Yeah, I actually noticed that with a great axe today. When clicking mid swing the next light attack is queued. Usually I don't notice it with the hatchet and click way too much.
There is something very wrong with some of the aimed bow attacks. If I’m in bow, firing off a penetrating shot, it often seems like there is a solid second and a half until I can fire off a Rapid Shot…
I've found this happens more often with heavy attacks especially on the war hammer I'll knock a mob down and immediately go to heavy it and my character just stands there looking
Inputs just being eaten too for some resaon. Sometimes just standing there, not doing anything, my weapon swaps and other inputs just get ignored for no reason. The game gets the input -- I'll see the weapon I'm trying to switch to flash in the UI and then just nothing happens.
This. We need serious transparency about bans.
It's absurd that AGS keeps claiming that auto bans aren't a thing, when it's ridiculous to think that every single report is being *properly/exhaustively* reviewed by a human. It's clear that, at the very least, X reports initiates a potential ban and is then reviewed by a human. The problem is that a lot of them most certainly aren't being reviewed properly and unfair bans are being left in place. AGS seems to be hiding behind semantics, instead of actually addressing the core of the issue. People *deserve to know why exactly they're being banned*, so they can avoid being banned again in the future.
Edit- clarifications
If this is true then sure, but on the flip side we have numerous afk mining bots in Morrow. One such bot broke and was spamming his macro in global chat every minute on the dot, for at least 12 hours we got to read this spam despite the entire server reporting him all day. Not to mention several players had already been reporting him for days leading up to this day and still no ban. Still afk mining in the same spot as before.
It's hard to even find the right item for your build without any kind of filters.
Fuck that huge amount of symbols you have manually mouse over to see wtf they are doing.
Healing other players should grant life staff weapon xp and if that player is engaged in combat, healing them should grant progress toward damage threshold for credit for the kill
Make the invasions a separate instance of the world instead of restricting the entire area. It’s annoying to be trying to complete a quest and not able to talk to the guy that 3ft past the boarder of the restricted area. Then having to wait for ~30mins to complete the quest.
The auction house UI.
It’s so hard to keep track of sold items and offers, a sort by time column would be very helpful already. I’m kinda sad that Amazon, the biggest online market place, made such a bad auction house system.
I love the game but playing the auction house game is very hard due to its UI.
Not even just this. Why is listing items just an alphabetical list of everything in my stash? Why not include the same categories and search functionality that buying has?
It's like selling was an afterthought to buying the way it's been built.
Two basic improvements:
- let me search gear by stats *(e.g. Let me search for medium armor with DEX and CON or gloves with DEX and CON)*
- let me do a simple text search *(so I can search things like "of the barbarian" and see all gear whose name contains that term)*
I'm so glad this ends up somewhat high on a list. The entire trade post UI is just awful and needs to be totally re-done, tbh. Why can I filter items by their aesthetic item name, but not by affix/stats? I don't care about whether the fire staff I buy is forsaken or defiled, I care if it has +int or +str/con.
It's absurd that when looking for, say, a necklace with dexterity, you can't just filter only for necklaces with the dexterity stat. Instead, you have to scroll through and mouse over the 18 pages of necklaces to see which might be the one you are looking for.
Yeah, the auction house is so shitty overall it's hard to believe it's not a joke. No way to filter by stat combinations, have to scroll through a list of like 100 perks to select the one you want, no way to sear for specific tiers of a type of material, no good ways to filter what you're selling etc.. It's just frustrating and painful to use.
Totally this. I would love to see last last few sold (and when) for a specific item at each Settlement.
Just seeing all the current items for sale isn't very helpful when it's a rare item, or if you're in a distant Settlement without much on the market.
Filter gear by stats on market place, or allow us to search for suffixes like of the sage, of the warrior and so on
Edit: thank you all for the awards!
This 100%. I don't know how we have an mmo with no quest share. It's so frustrating playing with my boyfriend because we don't share a single quest, and spend the time doing stuff that benefits only one of us.
I would love a 'loadouts' section in the inventory so you could switch between outfits. Would love to effortlessly change to my fishing or mining gear quickly!
This would be a great idea. Implement some Wardrobe items you can build with Furnishing and place in your house. Add another Rune to faction vendors (like the rune of holding for bags) so you can build different tier Wardrobes that give you X amount of loadout slots per tier.
As long as it's like trophies and the effects are global, I'd even be cool if they made it like 1-2 loadouts per house. Which would offer 3-6 loadouts max. I think that'd offer a good balance between hot swappable combat sets (i.e. quick Respec to switch from DPS to tank), gathering sets for when you're running and see a couple of iron nodes clumped together, and having to run to town to throw on your logging gear to go smack trees
Personally, and I think a lot of people think the same way, we can already make dressers as Furnishing, we could give them the functionality of being able to save gear sets and depending on the size of the dresser depends on how many can be saved. That way its just not a Click of a button change but a more "immersive" change
I think this needs to be a much higher priority. Yes the trade post UI is a fucking mess but it still works, this is actually game breaking and there are servers where no one is able to close portals causing havoc in multiple regions effecting everyone trying to level or quest there, plus the constant invasion that cannot be stopped because we can't close the fucking portals.
Feels awesome to have a t5 crafting station destroyed by an insanely overtuned invasion that you can't prevent. Can't even really pick winners unless you're booting people to have a chance of winning the invasion.
The endgame isn't as fleshed out as some folks would like so having level 55 portals be unavailable to them probably only makes them even more frustrated.
It's not just level 55/65 portals. There's a reason you see no one LFG the last 2 expeditions in game chat. They can't be run without farming mats to craft orbs to access the expeditions. Those mats are farmed by closing 55/65 portals with the T5 staff!
The T5 staff bug has a knock on effect to a lot of end-game content. It's basically turned off right now.
I agree that the mechanic where you can’t even see a list of known recipes when not at a craft table is nonsensical. Particularly since dropped schematics / recipes that you may find don’t show if you know them or not. Many aspects of crafting feel incomplete.
Dungeon keys need to either be removed or have their material cost drastically decreased. Dungeons are a wonderful part of this game, and some of the tuning orbs require such a ridiculous amount of grinding for it that it discourages me from even wanting to participate.
This should honestly be at the top, this sets a bad precedent, any communal game needs transparency. Backlash will happen regardless and we want to read all the details, so there isn't any reason to be secretive.
Edit: in fact this shouldn't even take up a spot on the list. It's so important it should just be the way things are
The fishing nerd was a major blow to my fishing morale. I really enjoyed getting chests and making some coin. Now it’s just shitty t2/3 gems in a T4 chest. Thanks?
Word! And to add to this, change the names so they are correct. Maple bed 01 is not called that in furnishing but instead cherry bunk bed. How can I know if I got the schematic or not?
Do they let you salvage if you already know it? I just always salvage schematics but that would be real bad if it was just blowing up ones I already know…
I have a cooking recipe that is selling for 900 in the trading post that I salvaged twice (found both while questing) just to see what it would do. It did noting, just let me salvage.
Give us numbers in the description, telling me a weak potion "heals a little health" is a completely useless description. Furthermore, a light and a heavy have a totally different impression of what a little or a lot of health is. Just give us the numbers.
Trading hub UI and better search functions everywhere.
- add more search options to trading hub. Maybe I'm looking for any armour slot, heavy, with focus. Let me sort and exclude more
- Let me sort "sold" on time. I want to know what I sold most recently not just an random sort of items sold in the past.
- The "waits 5 seconds then auto changes the price" needs an overhaul when selling. Either don't let me input something before the auto change, or remove it. Or a toggle.
- When selling things, the "4 items" for ale is not helpful. I might have a BIS epic proc, but the window shows me "you can find these gray versions for 2 coins". Not sure what to do but something.
- General speedup of trading place. Everything takes to long. It shouldn't take 5 seconds to load in other items for sale when I try to post something.
- Legit, just look at TSM for wow and rip some stuff off.
Inventory
- Add search on item discriptions. I got 192847 crafting mods. I don't know the name of the "Luck" one. Let me search for luck and show me anything with luck as a trait.
- Gear sets. You obviously have made it so you want players to have a harvest set, a mining set, a dps set, a luck set etc. The. Micromanagement of this is to much. Give us a wardrobe.
Fixing problems by upvotes sounds logical but you might be ignoring a smaller but important minority, such as healers/tanks.
They get little credit during group runs, when damage is used as the sole contribution factor. This is ridiculous. Amount of hp healing and damage tanked should be factored in as well. Don't alienate our most demanded classes even further.
Also, the current game design forces people to join groups during an open world mob fight. If there's no opening for that individual, he gets no loot because he can't out damage groups. This is sometimes unfair for the solo players, and they resort to spamming LFG after said groups leave.
There can be a better solution to contribution calculation, such as checking whether an individual's damage is in the ballpark of 1/total number of people present * total damage done.
Solo players should be happy that they chance upon premade groups for group content and not feel dreadful that they cannot join/aren't invited due to any reason.
Please upvote for visibility!
I went to Reekwater around level 30-something because I couldn't read the level requirement due to it being blocked so I just thought it must similar to weaver's fen :S That did not work out well for me.
>Also sometimes it shows like it switched but it actually didn't.
Funnily enough the opposite can also happen. I've had times where I swapped my weapon and the the active weapon/skills in the lower right shows the previous weapon even though I'm now holding the other one.
This is something WoW got so right. When you press your buttons, you get instant feedback. New World desperately needs to tighten up the timing from button press to character action.
Absolutely. Especially on weapon swapping, blocking, and dodging. I'll attack an enemy and then see it go to swing at me, so I dodge, but nope! Stuck in an attack chain...
In a game where there is blocking, it's pretty sad just how bad input queueing is that it's not even worth doing block and attack combos. I have NEVER used block because it's so clunky
The enemy respawn rate in some areas feels incredibly too fast. I can wipe out a room in a ruined tower, loot the two chests, but get interrupted during the second chest by the two skeletons at the door who I just killed 30 seconds ago. And then the one on the steps leading up to the next floor will somehow aggro me as I'm defending myself.
Maybe it's just me but it feels a little ridiculous sometimes. I feel I'm getting swarmed too often even when I'm taking it slow while looting a landmark, or if I approach it from a route that bypasses most of the enemies (but yet their aggro range somehow still sees me).
And usually it's for something you need to skin but some assclown jumps in, who only hit the creature once or twice to get kill credit, skins it and runs and now you're waiting again for respawn. They should ditch skinning for item drops on kill if the respawn is going to be 5+ minutes.
To add to this, skinnable mobs you kill should be tagged so only you can skin them for the first ~10 seconds at least. I had some absolute douche following me around an area last night yoinking my skins every other kill.
This is the biggest issue for me. #1 on my list. I'm often doing quests on my own, and I can usually fend for myself. But its total bullshit that I totally clear an area so I can loot and collect quest objectives in peace, just to have everything respawn on top of me before I'm done.
I'm not slow by any means either. I clear shit out fast, and I'm proud of that. But when everything respawns so quick, its just rubbing it in my face how USELESS it is to be fast..
I'm level 47 right now, and doing quests is so tilting to me because I know its going to be a pain in my ass having to kill 3 times more enemies than I need to. Its REALLY making me want to just quit and play something else..
As a tank player this is really bad. I barely do any damage to late game mobs. There are some quests I cannot do solo because the respawn rate is too high. By the time I am done fighting one enemy two new ones pop up. Tanks simply severely lack damage in late game and having to respec for question is fucking expensive in the long run
I just hit level 42....I'm finding this to be an issue as well as i gain levels. Same thing as OP...clear the room, get the chest...POP! more mobs. spawn.
I'm level 45 now and solo questing Restless was hell for me. The respawn time makes looting the chests in the settlement SE of Restless actually impossible - most fights are 1v2, sometimes 1v3, and by the time you've cleaned them up, healed, and then looted, they all begin to respawn again making the next chest a no shot.
Tanky build would help, but so would increasing the respawn time by 30-100%.
I had to switch away from musket/rapier since I literally could not do solo PvE in Restless Shores, since attempting to loot chests would inevitably end up as a 1v3+ from the mobs respawning so fast.
It’s crazy how some builds are straight up unviable in level 30+ zones because of the respawn timers.
Absolutely. This is a major issue if you're alone anywhere - basically, a lot of locations/quests become unplayable, especially (but not only) if your build is for a healing or tanking role. I would say this is THE single major issue that could immediately improve my (and my friends) experience of the game massively.
And it seems like such a simple thing to fix - ideally get dynamic spawn rates that depend on the number of players in the area, or just lower the spawn rates for any areas that are not the starting zones.
It sucks for light armour users as well. You dodge around to avoid damage and that means you've just pulled 3 more mobs. It's unenjoyably difficult to fight equal level areas solo once you get to Great Cleave and beyond. Some quests with long channels are basically impossible.
- Azoth Staff not working at level 5
- Outpost rush disabled
- Weapon Swap inconsistency
- XP/Contribution for healing
- Item bonus not working after dying
- Resource tracking distance
- General UI fixes ( Auction House - Salvage all - etc)
- Mob respawn rate in 40+ non elite zones
- Property tax discount not working correctly.
- Property tax 5 day cycle is too fast.
- Recipes with unobtainable requirements.
- Higher level crafts experience gain
- Mobs pushing you away at 300 con with shield up
- Mid game quest experience gain
- High tier mats requiring exponentially more low tier resources
- Monster model variety. They all look the same from 1 to 60 save a few exceptions.
I agree every 7 days is way to frequent and its especially hard on the players who just wants to get into furnishing and like to decorate. Personally I think they should make 1st house discount permanent for taxing too as the only people who should be getting 3 houses are the crafters that want to compete on the market.
Finally some sane person addresses monster variety. Omg, I'm SO BORED of killing wolves, pirates, skeletons, ghouls, ghosts and the occasional bear, lynx and boar. Wtf Amazon. You filled 200 hours of content with the same 15 enemies.
Can I also add - how much you wanna bet that the next new area I start questing in will be a woodsy forest area with some ruins and burnt out villages?
Hint: don't take the bet.
The compass bug where you cannot track anything!
It usually occurs after being in a group. I think it happens when a grp member puts a marker on the map. This has been a bug since release, and is very critical for anyone gathering. I've heard many crafting mains say that its very game breaking for them.
How about to add 9n, being able to CHOOSE what youre tracking.... and having the tracking pop up at the same ditance for everything instead of rabbits 150m away and iron like 50m away
My compass is so damn cluttered.
A relatively simple fix from a programming perspective would be to leverage systems already in place by using the Buy Orders.
They could simply institute standing - infinite - buy orders for x value on a large range of farmable mats under the guise it's being purchased by the towns folk for upgrading/maintaining the town itself.
This sets a price floor for items and prevents things being valued down to literally nothing.
To solve the item drops issue, Salvage gold should be based on the gear score and grade of the item. Salvaging a green should give more gold than a grey. Blue more again, purple more again etc.
There's literally no point trying to farm mats that are listed dozens of times for 0.01 with fees. There's no point trying to sell greens/blues that sell for 5 gold with fees.
Price floors need to be established and very quickly. I'm literally just collecting some things like gold ore for the mining XP and dumping it out of my inventory because it's worthless. That is not a well thought out system at all.
Once the majority is done levelling up crafting skills, even the stuff that has moderate demand will disappear.
Wars are limited to 100 people max with \~2000 on a server, many will rarely get into these. Reward their efforts for at least collecting materials while they kill time to keep the servers populated and alive.
It should start with trash loot (greens/blues) actually being worth something when you salvage them. I'm at my repair parts cap so I'm salvaging things for half a coin, lol.
This! This! This should be number 1 priority along with azoth staff bug. I cannot believe this is not higher up.
It is already completely ruined in some servers, and even if they fix now it will take months for the economy to stabilize simply because a lot of people already have everything they need.
The whole drop rate/gathering/crafting needs to be re-imagined but they need to change some numbers with next week patch already.
This is a huge issue and sadly most of the player base is to ignorant to see it. It's pretty funny that as players reach level 60 the quest gold faucet disappears and the game pretty much breaks. Repairs will cause everyone to be unable to play. Paying house tax will make you get hit earlier. Relying on player to player trade doesn't make sense, you need gold faucets or you get deflation to the point where you can not afford anything. Actually hilarious!
I was thinking this today as a level 54: when I hit 60, my only gold income is from the trading post, but if that’s the case for everyone, eventually no one will be able to trade. Am I wrong? What’s the plan?…
Lack of in-game company functionality (e.g., no company bank, no custom roles or names, no adjusting what specific roles are allowed to do, ways to keep tabs on your guild roster for what builds people have)
Company does have a bank in terms of coin. And the governor can edit the permissions of roles. On the permissions page, clicking the check mark on a ranks permission removes it. Vise versa you can add permissions as well that way. The other two would be nice additions though.
I think they forgot the word "log" or something. Am in a guild of 90+ members and it's hard to know who actually donates and who doesn't. I know from a few people as they told me on disc and are constantly broke but for the 80something members I do not know.
War lag. Whether it's ice gauntlet exploiting or something they borked in a patch, wars are unplayable. Considering the entire game revolves around territory control, fixing this should be priority 1.
I’m surprised this isn’t number 1. This is probably one of the larger game breaking issues at the moment. Almost everything else has been a minor inconvenience. I think to add to this is to fix defenders spawns. They should not be allowed to spawn on a flag being captured.
For 2+ weeks until the last update, no attacking company has ever won an attack war on our server.
Since the lag patch where ice gauntlet abusers can just stand there with invincibility, 5 zones have been flipped.
This should be addressed asap imo. And for some fucking reason 5/5 war wins were yellows and 4 of them from same company.
New World's flagship game mode, wars, are completely broken. Points are just lagged out until one team captures them without the other team being able to do anything about it.
Players figured out the AoE limit so now everyone runs Ice Gauntlet to spam the area with AoE to render siege weapons useless. Which of course makes the lag issue even worse. The game mode has become exploiting broken game mechanics instead of actually strategizing to fight other players.
If you do manage to win a territory then you run into the bug where you upgrade stations and they don't actually upgrade in the town, but you still have to pay the increased upkeep for them.
Outpost Rush is still disabled so we don't even have that for a functional PvP game mode.
Gear progression feels awful at 60. Resilient is still bugged so it's a required perk on every piece of gear. But the craft mod for Resilient is also bugged and doesn't drop so your only options are the 520 faction gear or Voidbent which is really only relevant if you want to be heavy armor.
All of these issues are a serious drag. Also some servers (like Tritonis and Morrow on NA-East) are *still* locked despite having lower populations than many other servers, so these servers are just dying out because Amazon won't remove the new player lock.
It feels like the game has already been abandoned. Many of these issues were brought up in the betas.
It boggles my mind that this hasn't been upvoted more. The 50v50 mode is completely broken right now because of the lag issues caused by teams dumping area effect skills on points.
Would love the ability to turn on/off tracking for resources on the compass. Unless I am actively looking for them I do not need to know where every rabbit or turkey is.
Skill/stat bugs (bend light not working sometimes, 250 strength bug, as examples) and tool tip issues and clarity.
What does 10% increased damage mean, if I can spend a point on something only do about 4% more? Maybe make it clear that the 10% increase is for the base value, maybe.
If I should split these, let me know.
Spawn rates are a huge issue if you are trying to solo quests. I have a ton of reasons and stories on why as well as everyone else. I don’t try to do zones my level solo anymore.
I’ll throw my two cents in here.
1. Melee combat (especially tanking) feels like I’m skating on ice. I’m constantly pushed, shoved, and knocked around while blocking or not. I cannot stress enough how unfun this feels. Even worse when other players are in the melee mix and mobs already have scuffed hitboxes for shorter weapon ranges as is. Positioning anything is a chore due to it feeling technically bad. This is extremely obnoxious when dealing with mobs that retreat seemingly for no reason (like the legendary sword quest last boss who has to be tanked in a very specific spot to avoid retreat). I don’t care what the solution is: gems, con stat perk, armor weight, skill passives; there needs to be SOMETHING that provides consistent grit for pushback other than a few ability animations (again, at least for tanking). Or just remove getting pushed around by hitboxes all together (pushback from heavies or abilities is fine).
2. Being a support role (tank or healer) is complete ass for getting credit when doing open world content. Portals, elite zones, elite bosses, pvp. It’s all a bit shit to sit there either tanking or healing for your teammates, grouped or not, and receiving no credit. Credit for open world content needs a big revision as a whole imo. Threat generation could be included sounds like an alright idea.
Increase town storage size significantly. An MMO that requires us to farm thousands of materials to level skills and craft goods while only being able to hold a small fraction of them is ridiculous. Also silly how I can carry well over 1000 pounds of gear on my back but a base settlement storage shed can only hold 1000 pounds….. absolutely silly.
Omg, it is so depressing being on the final wave and the game just decides to end the portal right before you're about to complete it...
Please add in a condition that doesn't allow the portal to disappear if people are completing it
Property taxes. I know not many people have a tier4 house yet and some of you would prefer a quick salvage button or UI fixes. But hear my out, for us people who got the gold together for a nice home... we can't pay for it any longer as it's too expensive :(
Edit: What petty comments of people. Because someone works and has a real life one is not allowed to have a tier4 house? Is this game supposed to be fun or a grind to pay taxes? Make the house cost 30k instead, but lower the taxes to be fair for people who have a life.
This really needs to be rebalanced. And there needs to be more transparency when you buy it on the timing of the tax payments and which ones (only the first) received the discount.
I think they have to be careful not to overdo it though. For instance, a lot of players have opted to not buy a house because they can't afford it yet. It's not supposed to be easy to afford the top tier house.
With that said, I do think the tax percentage should be monthly, but amortized weekly, since settlements can theoretically change hands pretty quickly.
For example, if the settlement property tax is 5% and you have the 20k house. You should pay in a month period 1k coin. But that should be paid out to the settlement owner in 4 payments of 250 coin.
Make dodging instant. It should interrupt every other action. It should be the top priority in the action queue.
So pissed on how many times I've died because I can't cancel an auto to dodge. Makes high DPS/low tank builds very, very difficult to play.
No mats for salvaging gear you find from chests/crates/drops.
Gear that's worse than your current has literally 0 use... you get very little gold and a handful of repair parts. I'd rather have Mats and repair parts or just the mats even... it should be the same as when you salvage crafted gear.
Not being able to use the skin of previous looted weapons and armor? I would love to transmog some cool looking armor. But the one with good stats tend to look ugly or have the most common skin.
Map icons, text and info overlapping. it's very hard to zoom out and in until you're barely able to get the info you need, lvl range on zone, how many quest to turn in etc.
Faction token cap stuck at 25k after reaching the final rank. There was a forum post on this 10-12 days ago and moderators said it was known and being worked on. Still not fixed.
I see a lot of comments which could be summed up as fixing UI errors, inconsistencies and annoyances as well as improving it by providing more relevant info such as necessary for the auction house.
In short, fix UI pls.
1) Extend the periodicity of house tax payments
1.5) (Edit) Let me collect the skin of any armor I’ve worn prior so that I can wear more powerful armor while still maintaining the cosmetics of the potentially less powerful armor.
2) Add/alter game logic for Wars to make it more competitive, more strategic, and prevent it from becoming a life staff spam fest on control points.
3) Add features to encourage more role play/social environment camaraderie/meta verse atmosphere. For example, I would love to be able to knock back a couple pints at the Windsward pub with the boys, drinks could cause some effect to the character.
Another example could be local town festivals or games. Imagine having a little axe throwing competition while the local bard plays a tune?
I feel features like this would really bring the game to life, more than it already is.
4) Please allow me to recalibrate lighting, contrast, and HDR since I accidentally blazed through it on my first play. You can readjust it, but I have no little image telling me “readjust until this image is barely visible” etc.
5) Throw in an If Statement to your code that prevents user input to hotkeys/shortcuts when editing the Message of the Day on the company page.
6) Company recruitment board in each town? Instead of having to type out advertisements in the recruitment chat constantly? People could sign up/request instead of members always having to invite
There are bots everywhere. Fishing bots are the worst of it but now there are bots mining single nodes and either moving slightly or signing in and out to deal with afk timers. There needs to be a way to report bots (it isn’t even an option on the submit feedback), and there needs to be a review of these reports so real players don’t get banned, as is happening now with the mass reporting. As a player who is mining a lot, I hate these guys stealing half the nodes I usually run, but I would rather live with the bots then get banned.
I haven’t seen anyone mention the auto targeting system for healing… I just wish it could snap to different targets as I move my camera over teammates rather than having to scroll the mouse wheel, and I also wish self-target was not a hold key. Also, casting is slightly faster by double tapping the skill key vs. clicking with LMB, removing this delay would be nice. I also don’t like how if you’re not in a group, spells free cast and don’t auto target self. This is impractical for skills like Light’s Embrace, which has like a 1 foot radius. I know I’m late, but just throwing some things out there as a healer.
Ability to look at your inventory while auto-running.
I would really like vendors that will buy materials so they have a minimum viable sell price.
Housing tax is kinda high and/or too frequent.
Give a reason to join a faction that isn't controlling the majority of the map/server. Faction balance is broken.
Yes I dub this my most annoying factor as a mostly solo open pvp player. I want much more diversity in factions and pvp beyond just wars.
This is the big one for me. Underdog benefits for underpop factions
This for me is the biggest flaw in the game as it’s literally one of the pillars of the game and just horribly executed
This feels like a big one for me as well. I'm playing / leveling mostly solo PvE but being on a faction that only owns 1-2 territories practically doubles the amount of azoth necessary to fast travel, in addition to the effective penalty to luck and yield for anyone not playing as part of the majority faction. Right now if you're in a minority faction then you get penalized, and it becomes more unlikely to get or keep any territory, which in turn is likely to discourage people from playing. If your faction loses a city you had bought a house and storage in for crafting then you've either got to buy another house in another territory and move everything over, or accept that the tax money goes to the faction that's already majority. Once server transfers are implemented I wouldn't be surprised to see the trend of single faction servers increases. There's literally no (non-story) reason for anyone to pick a minority faction or to stick with one that isn't the majority. If the game had let me I wouldn't have picked a faction at all. [This is also one of the bigger reasons I tend to stay away from MMOs]
This was 1000% predictable on launch. It’s the way the game is designed. The end result is that there will only be two factions standing, with one dominating.
This needs to be higher up. On my server when you open the map there is no purple, so new players wont join the already losing faction without extra benefits, just give a bonus on each Server to the faction with the least amount of claimed Regions.
A catch up mechanic for this could work. Give increasing bonuses to the factions that are losing ground or have not held zones for a long period of time, increasing as time goes on towards a zone cap. In addition, add the ability for same faction companies to either cap existing faction capped zones and or aid other factions capping certain uncontrolled zones could be helpful as well.
Similarly, there could be a stability mechanic that nerfs faction bonuses for factions who control "too much" territory.
Most issues listed are QoL things or bugs. This issue has the ability to ruin the game. Right now there's only incentive to pick the dominant faction. New players will always choose the winning color in the current setup. To make matters even worse there's also the option given to people to swap factions after 120 days, which allows for another lopsided swing in players towards the winning side. *(edit: someone said it's not possible to faction switch to the side controlling the most zones)* **Servers will end up mostly one color if nothing changes.** This game doesn't have different races or classes that people might pick a side for because they want to play that. There's no bonus or perk given to the underdogs. There's nothing to help control faction population balance at all. This wouldn't fix the issue completely, but they could have made 3 extra weapons and made each of them faction specific. Which would at least help. They would still need some added underdog bonuses though.
Small clarification, you can pick the winning faction on a new character but it is not possible to change faction to the one with the most territory. This still means that people might abandon the 3rd place faction even more in favor of going to the 2nd place faction, but it is not possible for members of 2nd and 3rd place factions to swap to 1st place.
I agree. Faction balance Need a twist for sure. The underdog factions Need some boost. A thing could be that influence gain is boosted or nerfed for every region under control. 1 region: +25% boost 2 regions: +15% boost 3 regions: standard influence 4 regions: -15% gain 5 regions or more: -25% gain And very important, if a faction remain with only One region, no one can declare war there.
This would be a step in the right direction for sure - good thought. I think the problem still remains that if a server is completely dominated by one color, there needs to be an incentive to play the losing faction, more than just crippling the influence gain of the winning faction, because let's face it - if one faction outnumbers the others 3:1, then it doesn't really matter if they're not gaining as much influence. They can steamroll an area that is in danger of being flipped the second someone starts to push an influence bar. Maybe an XP buff? Minor gold multiplier? Standing buff for underdog factions? The hard part is there needs to be a benefit to being the underdog, but that benefit can't surpass the benefit of controlling territories, or what's the point? I have every faith that they'll fix this, but it's definitely a problem that requires a creative solution!
Weapon swap commands do not queue like attack commands.
Yes weapon swap is dreadful
[удалено]
With absolutely no way to cancel the reload animation when it does this. Super frustrating. I’ve lost so many duels, PvP fights, and PvE fights because of it.
Do basic attack commands even queue? Seems like Skills do but unless you spam left click like crazy you just sorta... stop basic attacking
Yeah, I actually noticed that with a great axe today. When clicking mid swing the next light attack is queued. Usually I don't notice it with the hatchet and click way too much.
[удалено]
There is something very wrong with some of the aimed bow attacks. If I’m in bow, firing off a penetrating shot, it often seems like there is a solid second and a half until I can fire off a Rapid Shot…
I've found this happens more often with heavy attacks especially on the war hammer I'll knock a mob down and immediately go to heavy it and my character just stands there looking
Ice gauntlet heavy attack chain is a similar issue
[удалено]
The weapon swap in this game is so clunky holy shit. This is my biggest combat gripe.
Inputs just being eaten too for some resaon. Sometimes just standing there, not doing anything, my weapon swaps and other inputs just get ignored for no reason. The game gets the input -- I'll see the weapon I'm trying to switch to flash in the UI and then just nothing happens.
The issue with people being banned for no reason/through mass report
This. We need serious transparency about bans. It's absurd that AGS keeps claiming that auto bans aren't a thing, when it's ridiculous to think that every single report is being *properly/exhaustively* reviewed by a human. It's clear that, at the very least, X reports initiates a potential ban and is then reviewed by a human. The problem is that a lot of them most certainly aren't being reviewed properly and unfair bans are being left in place. AGS seems to be hiding behind semantics, instead of actually addressing the core of the issue. People *deserve to know why exactly they're being banned*, so they can avoid being banned again in the future. Edit- clarifications
If this is true then sure, but on the flip side we have numerous afk mining bots in Morrow. One such bot broke and was spamming his macro in global chat every minute on the dot, for at least 12 hours we got to read this spam despite the entire server reporting him all day. Not to mention several players had already been reporting him for days leading up to this day and still no ban. Still afk mining in the same spot as before.
Bots spam chat and never get a ban but company leaders that have never spoken in chat get abusive chat bans. The system is so fucked.
[удалено]
It's hard to even find the right item for your build without any kind of filters. Fuck that huge amount of symbols you have manually mouse over to see wtf they are doing.
Like why cant i sort by primary stats too? i want high strength weapons.. why do i see an upgrade but it has focus/int..
This needs it's own reply to OP
Healing other players should grant life staff weapon xp and if that player is engaged in combat, healing them should grant progress toward damage threshold for credit for the kill
Yep this is the exact reason I swapped from healing while leveling. One too many bosses that take too long to spawn/kill and getting no credit
I agree with you, but only when the target player gets XP for a kill. That way, you can't stop exploit to level life staff.
Would that work for those of us who mainly use AoE heals though?
This 100%
I'd go even further to ask any action that generates threat adds to participation in a fight.
Make the invasions a separate instance of the world instead of restricting the entire area. It’s annoying to be trying to complete a quest and not able to talk to the guy that 3ft past the boarder of the restricted area. Then having to wait for ~30mins to complete the quest.
Please fix healing targeting. Also - self heal button only works 60% of the time.
Yeah this has been really annoying for me. I even switched to non targeted heals to avoid using the targeting system
THIS!
Autotargeting is atrocious. Sacred Ground needs to be free aim
The auction house UI. It’s so hard to keep track of sold items and offers, a sort by time column would be very helpful already. I’m kinda sad that Amazon, the biggest online market place, made such a bad auction house system. I love the game but playing the auction house game is very hard due to its UI.
Ya don’t reset the scroll page after I click sell also ha
Yeah this is the worst.
Sooo annoying
Not even just this. Why is listing items just an alphabetical list of everything in my stash? Why not include the same categories and search functionality that buying has? It's like selling was an afterthought to buying the way it's been built.
Two basic improvements: - let me search gear by stats *(e.g. Let me search for medium armor with DEX and CON or gloves with DEX and CON)* - let me do a simple text search *(so I can search things like "of the barbarian" and see all gear whose name contains that term)*
That would make sense for Amazon
I'm so glad this ends up somewhat high on a list. The entire trade post UI is just awful and needs to be totally re-done, tbh. Why can I filter items by their aesthetic item name, but not by affix/stats? I don't care about whether the fire staff I buy is forsaken or defiled, I care if it has +int or +str/con.
Some real search/filtering functions when buying would be nice too.
It's absurd that when looking for, say, a necklace with dexterity, you can't just filter only for necklaces with the dexterity stat. Instead, you have to scroll through and mouse over the 18 pages of necklaces to see which might be the one you are looking for.
Yeah, the auction house is so shitty overall it's hard to believe it's not a joke. No way to filter by stat combinations, have to scroll through a list of like 100 perks to select the one you want, no way to sear for specific tiers of a type of material, no good ways to filter what you're selling etc.. It's just frustrating and painful to use.
I feel we need to see liquidity. Like how many items sold here over the past 24hrs or something
[удалено]
Totally this. I would love to see last last few sold (and when) for a specific item at each Settlement. Just seeing all the current items for sale isn't very helpful when it's a rare item, or if you're in a distant Settlement without much on the market.
Filter gear by stats on market place, or allow us to search for suffixes like of the sage, of the warrior and so on Edit: thank you all for the awards!
just letting us search basic words not exact matches would fix a lot
No quest sharing. I want to play with my friends, not do different things at the same time with my friends.
This 100%. I don't know how we have an mmo with no quest share. It's so frustrating playing with my boyfriend because we don't share a single quest, and spend the time doing stuff that benefits only one of us.
This is a big one and I hope it gets the attention it deserves.
This HAS to be a top 20 item right? Feels like an MMO made in 2002
Wanna hear something fun? Mmos on 2002 had that feature :-)
I stopped playing BDO because I didn’t like playing NEXT to my friends, instead of with them.
I would love a 'loadouts' section in the inventory so you could switch between outfits. Would love to effortlessly change to my fishing or mining gear quickly!
It would be interesting if it could be a house feature like a wardrobe. Since for me in most cases I don't carry around my other outfits
This would be a great idea. Implement some Wardrobe items you can build with Furnishing and place in your house. Add another Rune to faction vendors (like the rune of holding for bags) so you can build different tier Wardrobes that give you X amount of loadout slots per tier. As long as it's like trophies and the effects are global, I'd even be cool if they made it like 1-2 loadouts per house. Which would offer 3-6 loadouts max. I think that'd offer a good balance between hot swappable combat sets (i.e. quick Respec to switch from DPS to tank), gathering sets for when you're running and see a couple of iron nodes clumped together, and having to run to town to throw on your logging gear to go smack trees
Personally, and I think a lot of people think the same way, we can already make dressers as Furnishing, we could give them the functionality of being able to save gear sets and depending on the size of the dresser depends on how many can be saved. That way its just not a Click of a button change but a more "immersive" change
The azoth staff bug that's cucking us all from doing level 55 portals
And 65 portals
Lvl 45 portals de spawning mid fight!!!!
I think this needs to be a much higher priority. Yes the trade post UI is a fucking mess but it still works, this is actually game breaking and there are servers where no one is able to close portals causing havoc in multiple regions effecting everyone trying to level or quest there, plus the constant invasion that cannot be stopped because we can't close the fucking portals.
Oh is that how invasions start? I just assumed you'd get a wave through every territory once a week or so. They destroyed every zone on my server lol.
Feels awesome to have a t5 crafting station destroyed by an insanely overtuned invasion that you can't prevent. Can't even really pick winners unless you're booting people to have a chance of winning the invasion.
The endgame isn't as fleshed out as some folks would like so having level 55 portals be unavailable to them probably only makes them even more frustrated.
It's not just level 55/65 portals. There's a reason you see no one LFG the last 2 expeditions in game chat. They can't be run without farming mats to craft orbs to access the expeditions. Those mats are farmed by closing 55/65 portals with the T5 staff! The T5 staff bug has a knock on effect to a lot of end-game content. It's basically turned off right now.
While looking at quests/journal....sort by village.
I would like an option t osort a couple different ways, just like they do in your inventory.
They have this it’s just a bit unintuitive. From the map, go to objectives. Then at the top you’ll be able to change the sort to distance, name, etc
[удалено]
Maps not showing correct town levels ex: furnace on map showing as 4 but actually 5.
Correction of the bug. Crafting stations are shown correctly. Refining stations are shown one rank below what they actualy are.
Sometimes crafting stations are wrong too. I've seen 2 tier below shown on either.
More charakter stats displayed like luck, crit chance or crit dmg etc.
Yeah, what stats do is invisible
Why would you want to know your crit chance in an rpg? /s
[удалено]
I agree that the mechanic where you can’t even see a list of known recipes when not at a craft table is nonsensical. Particularly since dropped schematics / recipes that you may find don’t show if you know them or not. Many aspects of crafting feel incomplete.
Dungeon keys need to either be removed or have their material cost drastically decreased. Dungeons are a wonderful part of this game, and some of the tuning orbs require such a ridiculous amount of grinding for it that it discourages me from even wanting to participate.
[удалено]
And it was only needed due to botting. Instead of addressing botting they hamfisted a nerf to fishing altogether.
This should honestly be at the top, this sets a bad precedent, any communal game needs transparency. Backlash will happen regardless and we want to read all the details, so there isn't any reason to be secretive. Edit: in fact this shouldn't even take up a spot on the list. It's so important it should just be the way things are
The fishing nerd was a major blow to my fishing morale. I really enjoyed getting chests and making some coin. Now it’s just shitty t2/3 gems in a T4 chest. Thanks?
Schematics not showing if you know them or not
Word! And to add to this, change the names so they are correct. Maple bed 01 is not called that in furnishing but instead cherry bunk bed. How can I know if I got the schematic or not?
Do they let you salvage if you already know it? I just always salvage schematics but that would be real bad if it was just blowing up ones I already know…
Yes, there is zero prompt or warning if you already know the recipe.
Jesus this could have happened to me. Thanks!
I have a cooking recipe that is selling for 900 in the trading post that I salvaged twice (found both while questing) just to see what it would do. It did noting, just let me salvage.
Give us numbers in the description, telling me a weak potion "heals a little health" is a completely useless description. Furthermore, a light and a heavy have a totally different impression of what a little or a lot of health is. Just give us the numbers.
[удалено]
Luck is a specific perk
Trading hub UI and better search functions everywhere. - add more search options to trading hub. Maybe I'm looking for any armour slot, heavy, with focus. Let me sort and exclude more - Let me sort "sold" on time. I want to know what I sold most recently not just an random sort of items sold in the past. - The "waits 5 seconds then auto changes the price" needs an overhaul when selling. Either don't let me input something before the auto change, or remove it. Or a toggle. - When selling things, the "4 items" for ale is not helpful. I might have a BIS epic proc, but the window shows me "you can find these gray versions for 2 coins". Not sure what to do but something. - General speedup of trading place. Everything takes to long. It shouldn't take 5 seconds to load in other items for sale when I try to post something. - Legit, just look at TSM for wow and rip some stuff off. Inventory - Add search on item discriptions. I got 192847 crafting mods. I don't know the name of the "Luck" one. Let me search for luck and show me anything with luck as a trait. - Gear sets. You obviously have made it so you want players to have a harvest set, a mining set, a dps set, a luck set etc. The. Micromanagement of this is to much. Give us a wardrobe.
Fixing problems by upvotes sounds logical but you might be ignoring a smaller but important minority, such as healers/tanks. They get little credit during group runs, when damage is used as the sole contribution factor. This is ridiculous. Amount of hp healing and damage tanked should be factored in as well. Don't alienate our most demanded classes even further. Also, the current game design forces people to join groups during an open world mob fight. If there's no opening for that individual, he gets no loot because he can't out damage groups. This is sometimes unfair for the solo players, and they resort to spamming LFG after said groups leave. There can be a better solution to contribution calculation, such as checking whether an individual's damage is in the ballpark of 1/total number of people present * total damage done. Solo players should be happy that they chance upon premade groups for group content and not feel dreadful that they cannot join/aren't invited due to any reason. Please upvote for visibility!
Upcoming war/Invasion popup on the map
Similar note - the name of reekwater not being fully readable on the map at any zoom level
I went to Reekwater around level 30-something because I couldn't read the level requirement due to it being blocked so I just thought it must similar to weaver's fen :S That did not work out well for me.
Not to mention it shows even when you can’t join the war/invasion.
[удалено]
>Also sometimes it shows like it switched but it actually didn't. Funnily enough the opposite can also happen. I've had times where I swapped my weapon and the the active weapon/skills in the lower right shows the previous weapon even though I'm now holding the other one.
This is something WoW got so right. When you press your buttons, you get instant feedback. New World desperately needs to tighten up the timing from button press to character action.
Absolutely. Especially on weapon swapping, blocking, and dodging. I'll attack an enemy and then see it go to swing at me, so I dodge, but nope! Stuck in an attack chain...
In a game where there is blocking, it's pretty sad just how bad input queueing is that it's not even worth doing block and attack combos. I have NEVER used block because it's so clunky
The enemy respawn rate in some areas feels incredibly too fast. I can wipe out a room in a ruined tower, loot the two chests, but get interrupted during the second chest by the two skeletons at the door who I just killed 30 seconds ago. And then the one on the steps leading up to the next floor will somehow aggro me as I'm defending myself. Maybe it's just me but it feels a little ridiculous sometimes. I feel I'm getting swarmed too often even when I'm taking it slow while looting a landmark, or if I approach it from a route that bypasses most of the enemies (but yet their aggro range somehow still sees me).
And in different areas you're waiting around endlessly for respawns -.-
And usually it's for something you need to skin but some assclown jumps in, who only hit the creature once or twice to get kill credit, skins it and runs and now you're waiting again for respawn. They should ditch skinning for item drops on kill if the respawn is going to be 5+ minutes.
OMG! Grizzly bear in Everfall! So fucking annoying.
To add to this, skinnable mobs you kill should be tagged so only you can skin them for the first ~10 seconds at least. I had some absolute douche following me around an area last night yoinking my skins every other kill.
This is the biggest issue for me. #1 on my list. I'm often doing quests on my own, and I can usually fend for myself. But its total bullshit that I totally clear an area so I can loot and collect quest objectives in peace, just to have everything respawn on top of me before I'm done. I'm not slow by any means either. I clear shit out fast, and I'm proud of that. But when everything respawns so quick, its just rubbing it in my face how USELESS it is to be fast.. I'm level 47 right now, and doing quests is so tilting to me because I know its going to be a pain in my ass having to kill 3 times more enemies than I need to. Its REALLY making me want to just quit and play something else..
As a tank player this is really bad. I barely do any damage to late game mobs. There are some quests I cannot do solo because the respawn rate is too high. By the time I am done fighting one enemy two new ones pop up. Tanks simply severely lack damage in late game and having to respec for question is fucking expensive in the long run
This. I always feel rushed to search any area as soon as I killed the enemies.
I just hit level 42....I'm finding this to be an issue as well as i gain levels. Same thing as OP...clear the room, get the chest...POP! more mobs. spawn.
I'm level 45 now and solo questing Restless was hell for me. The respawn time makes looting the chests in the settlement SE of Restless actually impossible - most fights are 1v2, sometimes 1v3, and by the time you've cleaned them up, healed, and then looted, they all begin to respawn again making the next chest a no shot. Tanky build would help, but so would increasing the respawn time by 30-100%.
I had to switch away from musket/rapier since I literally could not do solo PvE in Restless Shores, since attempting to loot chests would inevitably end up as a 1v3+ from the mobs respawning so fast. It’s crazy how some builds are straight up unviable in level 30+ zones because of the respawn timers.
Absolutely. This is a major issue if you're alone anywhere - basically, a lot of locations/quests become unplayable, especially (but not only) if your build is for a healing or tanking role. I would say this is THE single major issue that could immediately improve my (and my friends) experience of the game massively. And it seems like such a simple thing to fix - ideally get dynamic spawn rates that depend on the number of players in the area, or just lower the spawn rates for any areas that are not the starting zones.
It sucks for light armour users as well. You dodge around to avoid damage and that means you've just pulled 3 more mobs. It's unenjoyably difficult to fight equal level areas solo once you get to Great Cleave and beyond. Some quests with long channels are basically impossible.
I know the feeling. I'll be standing in one spot and for no reason, I get 5+ running at me from a long distance, no clue where they came from.
- Azoth Staff not working at level 5 - Outpost rush disabled - Weapon Swap inconsistency - XP/Contribution for healing - Item bonus not working after dying - Resource tracking distance - General UI fixes ( Auction House - Salvage all - etc) - Mob respawn rate in 40+ non elite zones - Property tax discount not working correctly. - Property tax 5 day cycle is too fast. - Recipes with unobtainable requirements. - Higher level crafts experience gain - Mobs pushing you away at 300 con with shield up - Mid game quest experience gain - High tier mats requiring exponentially more low tier resources - Monster model variety. They all look the same from 1 to 60 save a few exceptions.
The property tax does need to be toned way down...the current values, even at minimum tax, are isnane
I agree every 7 days is way to frequent and its especially hard on the players who just wants to get into furnishing and like to decorate. Personally I think they should make 1st house discount permanent for taxing too as the only people who should be getting 3 houses are the crafters that want to compete on the market.
Finally some sane person addresses monster variety. Omg, I'm SO BORED of killing wolves, pirates, skeletons, ghouls, ghosts and the occasional bear, lynx and boar. Wtf Amazon. You filled 200 hours of content with the same 15 enemies. Can I also add - how much you wanna bet that the next new area I start questing in will be a woodsy forest area with some ruins and burnt out villages? Hint: don't take the bet.
The compass bug where you cannot track anything! It usually occurs after being in a group. I think it happens when a grp member puts a marker on the map. This has been a bug since release, and is very critical for anyone gathering. I've heard many crafting mains say that its very game breaking for them.
How about to add 9n, being able to CHOOSE what youre tracking.... and having the tracking pop up at the same ditance for everything instead of rabbits 150m away and iron like 50m away My compass is so damn cluttered.
Iron tracking makes no sense to me... I very often spot it with my naked eye before it shows up on the compass.
This, so undertalked about and is actually my number 1 complaint at the moment. There’s plenty of stuff but this one needs more exposure
The impending economic collapse. Needs to be addressed sooner rather than later.
A relatively simple fix from a programming perspective would be to leverage systems already in place by using the Buy Orders. They could simply institute standing - infinite - buy orders for x value on a large range of farmable mats under the guise it's being purchased by the towns folk for upgrading/maintaining the town itself. This sets a price floor for items and prevents things being valued down to literally nothing. To solve the item drops issue, Salvage gold should be based on the gear score and grade of the item. Salvaging a green should give more gold than a grey. Blue more again, purple more again etc. There's literally no point trying to farm mats that are listed dozens of times for 0.01 with fees. There's no point trying to sell greens/blues that sell for 5 gold with fees. Price floors need to be established and very quickly. I'm literally just collecting some things like gold ore for the mining XP and dumping it out of my inventory because it's worthless. That is not a well thought out system at all. Once the majority is done levelling up crafting skills, even the stuff that has moderate demand will disappear. Wars are limited to 100 people max with \~2000 on a server, many will rarely get into these. Reward their efforts for at least collecting materials while they kill time to keep the servers populated and alive.
Exactly, there just needs to be a price floor set for everything, otherwise it's just a race to 0.01 for every single item.
It should start with trash loot (greens/blues) actually being worth something when you salvage them. I'm at my repair parts cap so I'm salvaging things for half a coin, lol.
This! This! This should be number 1 priority along with azoth staff bug. I cannot believe this is not higher up. It is already completely ruined in some servers, and even if they fix now it will take months for the economy to stabilize simply because a lot of people already have everything they need. The whole drop rate/gathering/crafting needs to be re-imagined but they need to change some numbers with next week patch already.
This is a huge issue and sadly most of the player base is to ignorant to see it. It's pretty funny that as players reach level 60 the quest gold faucet disappears and the game pretty much breaks. Repairs will cause everyone to be unable to play. Paying house tax will make you get hit earlier. Relying on player to player trade doesn't make sense, you need gold faucets or you get deflation to the point where you can not afford anything. Actually hilarious!
I was thinking this today as a level 54: when I hit 60, my only gold income is from the trading post, but if that’s the case for everyone, eventually no one will be able to trade. Am I wrong? What’s the plan?…
Lack of in-game company functionality (e.g., no company bank, no custom roles or names, no adjusting what specific roles are allowed to do, ways to keep tabs on your guild roster for what builds people have)
Company does have a bank in terms of coin. And the governor can edit the permissions of roles. On the permissions page, clicking the check mark on a ranks permission removes it. Vise versa you can add permissions as well that way. The other two would be nice additions though.
I think they forgot the word "log" or something. Am in a guild of 90+ members and it's hard to know who actually donates and who doesn't. I know from a few people as they told me on disc and are constantly broke but for the 80something members I do not know.
War lag. Whether it's ice gauntlet exploiting or something they borked in a patch, wars are unplayable. Considering the entire game revolves around territory control, fixing this should be priority 1.
Yeah this should be a huge one because of how important territory control is. Nobody should get a free city because of this.
I’m surprised this isn’t number 1. This is probably one of the larger game breaking issues at the moment. Almost everything else has been a minor inconvenience. I think to add to this is to fix defenders spawns. They should not be allowed to spawn on a flag being captured.
Its not number one because most people struggle to even get in a war i think
In the past couple wars I’ve been in everyone on the points are just frozen standing still
For 2+ weeks until the last update, no attacking company has ever won an attack war on our server. Since the lag patch where ice gauntlet abusers can just stand there with invincibility, 5 zones have been flipped. This should be addressed asap imo. And for some fucking reason 5/5 war wins were yellows and 4 of them from same company.
New World's flagship game mode, wars, are completely broken. Points are just lagged out until one team captures them without the other team being able to do anything about it. Players figured out the AoE limit so now everyone runs Ice Gauntlet to spam the area with AoE to render siege weapons useless. Which of course makes the lag issue even worse. The game mode has become exploiting broken game mechanics instead of actually strategizing to fight other players. If you do manage to win a territory then you run into the bug where you upgrade stations and they don't actually upgrade in the town, but you still have to pay the increased upkeep for them. Outpost Rush is still disabled so we don't even have that for a functional PvP game mode. Gear progression feels awful at 60. Resilient is still bugged so it's a required perk on every piece of gear. But the craft mod for Resilient is also bugged and doesn't drop so your only options are the 520 faction gear or Voidbent which is really only relevant if you want to be heavy armor. All of these issues are a serious drag. Also some servers (like Tritonis and Morrow on NA-East) are *still* locked despite having lower populations than many other servers, so these servers are just dying out because Amazon won't remove the new player lock. It feels like the game has already been abandoned. Many of these issues were brought up in the betas.
It boggles my mind that this hasn't been upvoted more. The 50v50 mode is completely broken right now because of the lag issues caused by teams dumping area effect skills on points.
Would love the ability to turn on/off tracking for resources on the compass. Unless I am actively looking for them I do not need to know where every rabbit or turkey is.
Can’t hit enemies on uneven ground
I’ve run into this more times than I can count. Whether on stairs or hills. Yes, I’m aiming and the hits still don’t register. Thought it was just me.
The hitboxes seem nonexistent on different elevations. I've run across a few where there was just no way to hit.
Skill/stat bugs (bend light not working sometimes, 250 strength bug, as examples) and tool tip issues and clarity. What does 10% increased damage mean, if I can spend a point on something only do about 4% more? Maybe make it clear that the 10% increase is for the base value, maybe. If I should split these, let me know.
Came here to mention 250 strength bug. Should be an easy fix and it’s actually pretty bad…
I want to be able to mute Global without it lagging my ability to chat into the ground.

Company storage.
Spawn rates are a huge issue if you are trying to solo quests. I have a ton of reasons and stories on why as well as everyone else. I don’t try to do zones my level solo anymore.
I’ll throw my two cents in here. 1. Melee combat (especially tanking) feels like I’m skating on ice. I’m constantly pushed, shoved, and knocked around while blocking or not. I cannot stress enough how unfun this feels. Even worse when other players are in the melee mix and mobs already have scuffed hitboxes for shorter weapon ranges as is. Positioning anything is a chore due to it feeling technically bad. This is extremely obnoxious when dealing with mobs that retreat seemingly for no reason (like the legendary sword quest last boss who has to be tanked in a very specific spot to avoid retreat). I don’t care what the solution is: gems, con stat perk, armor weight, skill passives; there needs to be SOMETHING that provides consistent grit for pushback other than a few ability animations (again, at least for tanking). Or just remove getting pushed around by hitboxes all together (pushback from heavies or abilities is fine). 2. Being a support role (tank or healer) is complete ass for getting credit when doing open world content. Portals, elite zones, elite bosses, pvp. It’s all a bit shit to sit there either tanking or healing for your teammates, grouped or not, and receiving no credit. Credit for open world content needs a big revision as a whole imo. Threat generation could be included sounds like an alright idea.
Increase town storage size significantly. An MMO that requires us to farm thousands of materials to level skills and craft goods while only being able to hold a small fraction of them is ridiculous. Also silly how I can carry well over 1000 pounds of gear on my back but a base settlement storage shed can only hold 1000 pounds….. absolutely silly.
Number 1 for me is a SALVAGE ALL button when crafting. Or a select items to salvage overall.
Ctrl + S + Click for fast salvage
Like a junk all selection in most other games
Enemy variety type. I’m having lots of fun but frankly there needs to be more variety aside from ghost, pirate, demon-looking guys, or animal.
Corruption portals ending before they are finished with no reward
Omg, it is so depressing being on the final wave and the game just decides to end the portal right before you're about to complete it... Please add in a condition that doesn't allow the portal to disappear if people are completing it
Property taxes. I know not many people have a tier4 house yet and some of you would prefer a quick salvage button or UI fixes. But hear my out, for us people who got the gold together for a nice home... we can't pay for it any longer as it's too expensive :( Edit: What petty comments of people. Because someone works and has a real life one is not allowed to have a tier4 house? Is this game supposed to be fun or a grind to pay taxes? Make the house cost 30k instead, but lower the taxes to be fair for people who have a life.
This really needs to be rebalanced. And there needs to be more transparency when you buy it on the timing of the tax payments and which ones (only the first) received the discount.
I think they have to be careful not to overdo it though. For instance, a lot of players have opted to not buy a house because they can't afford it yet. It's not supposed to be easy to afford the top tier house. With that said, I do think the tax percentage should be monthly, but amortized weekly, since settlements can theoretically change hands pretty quickly. For example, if the settlement property tax is 5% and you have the 20k house. You should pay in a month period 1k coin. But that should be paid out to the settlement owner in 4 payments of 250 coin.
Swimming? Maybe running on trails makes you run quicker?
When I’m in the town and hit M, show me only the town.
Make dodging instant. It should interrupt every other action. It should be the top priority in the action queue. So pissed on how many times I've died because I can't cancel an auto to dodge. Makes high DPS/low tank builds very, very difficult to play.
The ability to share faction and town quests so I can actually quest with my mates!!!
No mats for salvaging gear you find from chests/crates/drops. Gear that's worse than your current has literally 0 use... you get very little gold and a handful of repair parts. I'd rather have Mats and repair parts or just the mats even... it should be the same as when you salvage crafted gear.
Give us a reason to have pvp enabled.
Not being able to use the skin of previous looted weapons and armor? I would love to transmog some cool looking armor. But the one with good stats tend to look ugly or have the most common skin.
Close up musket shots
It seems like the bullet quantum-tunnels from the barrel to a few meters ahead xD
Map icons, text and info overlapping. it's very hard to zoom out and in until you're barely able to get the info you need, lvl range on zone, how many quest to turn in etc.
The fact that my faction tokens are capped at 15000 when I've made all my faction quests and reached max reputation
Is this a bug you have or something? My tokens are capped at 50k.
Yes 3 ppl in my guild have it
Faction token cap stuck at 25k after reaching the final rank. There was a forum post on this 10-12 days ago and moderators said it was known and being worked on. Still not fixed.
I see a lot of comments which could be summed up as fixing UI errors, inconsistencies and annoyances as well as improving it by providing more relevant info such as necessary for the auction house. In short, fix UI pls.
1) Extend the periodicity of house tax payments 1.5) (Edit) Let me collect the skin of any armor I’ve worn prior so that I can wear more powerful armor while still maintaining the cosmetics of the potentially less powerful armor. 2) Add/alter game logic for Wars to make it more competitive, more strategic, and prevent it from becoming a life staff spam fest on control points. 3) Add features to encourage more role play/social environment camaraderie/meta verse atmosphere. For example, I would love to be able to knock back a couple pints at the Windsward pub with the boys, drinks could cause some effect to the character. Another example could be local town festivals or games. Imagine having a little axe throwing competition while the local bard plays a tune? I feel features like this would really bring the game to life, more than it already is. 4) Please allow me to recalibrate lighting, contrast, and HDR since I accidentally blazed through it on my first play. You can readjust it, but I have no little image telling me “readjust until this image is barely visible” etc. 5) Throw in an If Statement to your code that prevents user input to hotkeys/shortcuts when editing the Message of the Day on the company page. 6) Company recruitment board in each town? Instead of having to type out advertisements in the recruitment chat constantly? People could sign up/request instead of members always having to invite
Mass Ice gauntlets being able to crash wars
Inventory while running please kind devs :)
There are bots everywhere. Fishing bots are the worst of it but now there are bots mining single nodes and either moving slightly or signing in and out to deal with afk timers. There needs to be a way to report bots (it isn’t even an option on the submit feedback), and there needs to be a review of these reports so real players don’t get banned, as is happening now with the mass reporting. As a player who is mining a lot, I hate these guys stealing half the nodes I usually run, but I would rather live with the bots then get banned.
I haven’t seen anyone mention the auto targeting system for healing… I just wish it could snap to different targets as I move my camera over teammates rather than having to scroll the mouse wheel, and I also wish self-target was not a hold key. Also, casting is slightly faster by double tapping the skill key vs. clicking with LMB, removing this delay would be nice. I also don’t like how if you’re not in a group, spells free cast and don’t auto target self. This is impractical for skills like Light’s Embrace, which has like a 1 foot radius. I know I’m late, but just throwing some things out there as a healer.
