Ahhh yea I see it now. So it looks like the 4x level range is where the money is currently. I'm still buying all the tier 3 potion regents I can for under 1 and any of the 4/5 for under 2. Also cooking ingredients, forever cooking

The crazy train has kept on rolling despite being out a tracks.

Mileage varies depending on who you play with, what bugs that individual server has, and if you care about [INSERT GAME MECHANIC] and want to use/abuse whatever you plugged in.

At the rate their "fixes" are creating new bugs we have about 4 more patches before no one is able to log in.

At level 60 all you do is go into top level zones and loot all the chests without fighting a single mob anyway, because they're so easy to bug out. To get your watermark up. Since 99% of the gear is worthless.

The de-sync issues have gotten progressively worse with the latest patch as well for both melee and spells. Taking the Dev effortpost about how they are not client authoritative as the gospel leads you to conclude that their server modeling of playing positioning and physics is pretty poo poo and that’s not going to get better quickly.

It makes sense I guess, if they coded a load of game mechanics to be doing client side calculations, they'll have done all their load testing and optimisation based on the client doing loads of the work. The more of these issues they patch out, the more work the servers will be having to do that wasn't accounted for when they stress tested it etc.

This is hilarious and I absolutely called this on day 1 when I saw how much gold you end up with after doing the starting quests for a few hours. Abuse steam family share to get a bunch of risk free accounts, spam starting quests and trade your gold to a single bank character and then RMT it.

TBH this will 100% be the thing that makes me transfer. Even if it’s a buggy poo poo show, OR is an easy 300 gold / 200 azoth for a game that I’ve never seen go longer than 20 minutes. It’s hands down the best income you can consistently make at 60 and I can’t even queue it on my dead server lol

The game had great potential, and I was strongly in the "it's not that bad yet" camp for a long time, but honestly the approach to resolving and punishing exploits is very much the same way fo76 was handled (resolve at their leisure, don't actually punish). This kills a game for me. It's hard to feel good about my 300+ hour "investment" when some jackass on a family share account can exploit their way up and beyond in a fraction of the time.
super agreed on this. There are a lot of parts I like about this game but we’re about to go into our 3rd or 4th defense against forty Hatchet abusers who run around at 130% speed in heavy armor with 15-20k+ effective hp and two-shot me. Maybe they’ll fix it in a few days, maybe they’ll break more poo poo? Either way they don’t seem to give a gently caress about stopping the behavior even though it has pretty meaningful in-game impact.

It’s pretty tiresome when every patch turns into “hmm, wonder what exploits we’ll have to overcome in war THIS time”

Rune scape is good but it can be kinda clunky. Like I haven’t totally bounced off it but it’s a bit rough.

Definitely check it out though because it’s free and you can play on your phone if you just want to check on stuff.

I agree. Currently only way to dupe is to mess with packets which I believe is intermediate level game hacking. So the barrier of entry is pretty decent.

https://www.reddit.com/r/newworldgame/comments/qkjsko/new_dupe_fix_your_game/ uh oh (this dupe is not new, it has existed since beta)

It's insane to me that any of you have faith in this game not completely making GBS threads the bed, since that's literally all it has ever done in its entire terrible and brief existence.

I've been enjoying just playing, don't my quests hitting numbers, etc. Makes me really sad that the game's now in a death spiral, or is going to hit that.

Kinda liked the game and the get in, make a number go up, do stuff feel without feeling like I was missing out on so much stuff (games with lots of daily quests make me feel like that, for example). Like a low commitment mmo with some social stuff. Is RuneScape kinda like that?

the game can be fun while still making GBS threads the bed. me and the atlas goons insisted for over a year this game would poo poo the bed but the launch was a success anyway, so at that point I bought a copy and it's been pretty fuckin hilarious every day

you dont have to play the game to enjoy the weird rear end bugs, but you can

Another bug/exploit just popped on josh strife hayes. Well 2 actually.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TGwVN51NTZ8

1) You can climb around the invisible wall and get on the map right at the start before the timer lets you actually exit the gates like you are supposed to

2) You can turn in items to the town board without losing the items

a) Place the items in your town storage
b) Put those items for sale on the auction house (since you can sell from storage)
c) turn in the quest. It will gladly claim to have taken the items and give you your rewards
d) cancel auction house sale to return the items

I have no idea why the items on sale are persisting in your storage. That seems like a fun bug.

Edit: doesn't work for potions though. I missed that bit in the video initially.

So, something I'm wondering about, are taxes paused? I assume crafters have a lot of their money tied up into the town board / people pool money from taxes / etc, so if that is disabled, are taxes?

The idea of someone losing their house because they don't pay their taxes is amusing. Its like the bank freezing your checking account and then also expecting you to make your loan payment

Imagine four 'mechs waiting in a queue. Time works the same way.
The auction house and storage interaction has been a little buggy for awhile.

When I log in, I can not create any buy orders since my storage is full. But once I run over to my storage and look at it, it shows I have like 500 units of space.

If I now run back to the market and try to put a buy order, suddenly my storage is no longer full.

I have to repeat this every time I log in.

Wonder if they're actually considering a full wipe of servers. It'd be disasterous but now that a dupe is now all but confirmed officially nobody's gonna ever think anything is fair for a long time. It was already bad when it was just rumors.
