This game is bad. Launch, however, will own, and I'm sure I'll get 1 playthrough out of it.

counterpoint: it's a terrible game, but new mmos at release are a spectacle and fun as hell even with horrific bugs and limited content

Frustrated posted:You'd think a company who specializes in web hosting and server farms would be able to put together a better product than this poo poo show. 2000 player caps on servers, no concurrent layering to get more people in, absurdly long que times on practically every server, what a giant cluster gently caress. It's honestly like a 2006 MMO all over again. Every design decision of this game is just so hilariously archaic and stupid. Hughmoris posted:What, names are global? LOL Yup lol

Discospawn posted:The Steam reviews are already highly negative though, with a 50% recommended rating (which is continuing to drop). That's because it's a bad game. But, any MMO at launch is fun due to the total chaos and dumpster fire.

Hughmoris posted:I would have thought they'd have an infrastructure blood pact (sponsored by AWS!) going on: "We may released the shittiest game in existence but it will be readily available the moment it launches. Since, you know, our company's bread and butter is scaling to meet demand." That's because whoever designed this poo poo is a grognard who loves MMOs from 2006 with zero QoL stuff.

Carmant posted:Dude has been posting the same poo poo over and over in every iteration of the New World thread. It's tiresome. You don't have to like the game, but at some point, like when you've realized that you hate it and have no interest in playing it, maybe you should move on with your life. Or, you could not backseat mod and let people post about the game. Don't police other people's opinions. If you can't handle reading posts about a bad game, maybe stop reading the thread about a bad game.

causticBeet posted:Oh cool asmongold rolled on the server my friends and I were playing on very glad to see that the queues have quadrupled. Too bad no video game companies ever have come up with a way to manage game instances so that you don’t need such an aggressive hard cap on player counts. Jesus Christ this should not be happening in a 2021 MMO.

The game hogs my PC's resources when it's idling at the queue so I can't even play other games while waiting. This is such a joke lol.

Meme Poker Party posted:The default graphics setting is an uncapped framerate. If you haven't done so, changing it to 30 or 60 fps as appropriate for your hardware is a good idea. Yes this setting applies to menus lol. By default your computer will try to run that "your place in the queue is" screen at an astronomical frame rate. Set mine to 60 and it's still hogging all resources. Genuinely taking 10x longer to even load a website in Chrome. Jfc.

GoGoGadget posted:People asking for instancing in this game to solve population issues don't understand what type of game this is, because that wouldn't work at all. The games central focus is PvP and territory control. That is incompatible with sharding. Yeah as said you're completely wrong lol. This game desperately needs to be sharded/instanced like every good MMO out there. People cannot play because the non-instanced servers are capped at 2000 and there are thousands in queues. This will cause it to die.

GoGoGadget posted:Territory control and influence is also handled via PvP missions and stopping your opponents from finishing their PvP missions. Can't really do that if you're in different shards. If only any other MMO had solved this problem before.

Don't lose internet for even a few seconds while waiting in the queue. It'll kick you out and restart your queue. Lol

That doesn't prove anything. They're right. The cap is limited not by server power, but by terrible design.
