 Buy here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1063730/New_World/ Goon Guild info is at the end of this OP  New World is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) developed by Amazon Games Orange County and published by Amazon Games released on September 28, 2021. The game was previously scheduled to release in May 2020 and subsequently August 2021, but was delayed to its current date. Set in the mid-seventeenth century, players colonize a fictional land modeled after the Americas. Unlike other MMORPGs, New World employs a buy-to-play business model instead of subscription. The game offers microtransactions in the form of skins. With New World, the studios want players to have the chance to pursue their own path without becoming hopelessly lost. As part of the new onboarding process, Amazon has added a whole new set of missions that takes players through the first ten levels and establishes a number of important gameplay concepts. Players will wash ashore on Aeternum, the mystical island that New World takes place on. These early missions will guide players toward a major settlement in one of the game's territories. These territories are player-controlled, so this is your introduction to the larger PvP conflict in New World. Characters will be able to use melee attacks, ranged attacks like bows and arrows, and magic-based attacks in New World as well, as well as craft and customize gear. There will be “epic wars with other players” which once again points towards a big focus on PvP. I’m getting a lot of Darkfall vibes from all of the footage and descriptions thus far. Crafting has been completely overhauled too. In the alpha, New World's crafting system was centered around points you gained as you leveled, which could be spent on new recipes and specializations. Amazon found that while the system had advantages, "it limited people's ability to experience the whole crafting system". Now, crafting is what the team calls a "use to improve" system. As you perform a certain gathering or crafting task, you'll get better at it. You'll become faster at gathering better resources or begin to harvest better resources. For weapon and armorsmiths, you'll be able to specialize in different weapon and armor types, such as becoming a master in making shields. COMPANY's aka Guilds The “Company” system is also mentioned, which sounds like the in-game version of player-ran clans, or large guilds. They’ll include not just a way to invite and organize members, but the actual trappings of governmental structures with power organizations, hierarchies of leadership, and a command-line made up of fighters, crafters, traders, and more. This past element is very similar to games like Ultima Online or Legends of Aria, from the sounds of it, especially considering its classless progression system. As an example, New World has an extensive system for building camps, settlements, and forts. In other survival games like Rust or Ark: Survival Evolved, building things can sometimes be a fool's errand, because when you log back in, your carefully constructed home will be in ruins, picked apart by other players on the server. But Amazon has a solution to this common issue with a system called the War Window. With this, communities can choose when wars happen on their territory—so you don't have to worry about those 3 a.m. raids anymore. Territories should be changing hands over time though. If player dominance created a situation where one group becomes so dominant on a server that others can't compete. There are mechanics in parts of the faction system that should keep one company from reaching this point. That said, if you did want to focus on combat, that is also being improved. New World has an active skill-based combat system, as opposed to the stand-and-slash combat of World of Warcraft or Final Fantasy 14. Amazon Orange County has developed a new weapon mastery system in order to add "a lot more strategic depth to the combat." Within a specific weapon, players can choose whether they want to, say, improve the damage or support capabilities of that weapon. If you're using the sword and shield combo, weapon mastery is the difference between a supportive tank and a frontline vanguard fighter. OUTPOST RUSH Outpost Rush is a large-scale 20 v 20 PvP (with some PvE thrown in) event available to level 60 players in New World. The game will sometimes pop into a 16 v 16, depending on the queue. Outpost Rush balances resource management, objective control, and building up their forts to withstand assaults from the enemy team. You can only play a round of Outpost Rush at level 60. Just visit a settlement and find the Outpost Rush NPC and queue up. When the queue is full, the mode will start.
Combat can get real tight around the different Outposts, so it's a good idea to come with a decent PvP build in tow. Here are some of our favorite builds from during the closed beta (we will update with more with the full release.) There are various different Objectives dotted around the map that can be claimed by either team. You could defeat Baroness Hain (basically like Baron from League of Legends) which gives you a buff for health regen and defense. She spawns every 10 minutes. Spend resources to build Turret Emplacements at either home fort and at two of the Outposts. These large defensive structures can be used to shoot approaching enemy players. Players can take on one of the Corrupted Portals, defeat the enemies there, and deposit Azoth Essence (500 is needed) which can then be used to summon a bunch of Corrupted enemies to send at the opposite team. You just need to head to a Summoning Portal and use the Totem. If you're not into PvP, there are other ways you can help your team win a round of Outpost Rush. Each Outpost has a variety of upgradeable features, like Gates and Siege Weapons, which will require resources to build. Both teams will try and control the Outposts in order to win the game. Some members of the team should spend time gathering resources to upgrade the defense of the Outposts, particularly the Gate and Protection Wards that provide a constant buff.
At each Outpost, there are two structures - The Armory and Storage Sheds - which can be used by whoever controls the Outpost.
INVASIONS Invasion is the largest PvE experience in New World. This wave-based game mode will see 50 players defend their fort from the onslaught of corrupted enemies sieging the area. Players will have a range of weapons to help them fight off the enemy, with the ultimate test being the Void Destroyer. To win, players will need to hold off the attack for 30 minutes. But if they’re unsuccessful, their territory will be downgraded. EXPEDITIONS In the world of Aternum, there are expeditions that groups of five players can embark on. These function similarly to dungeons in other MMOs, but with some added features like puzzles to break up the combat. At the end of these unique instances, there are some of the most challenging bosses New World has to offer. Completing an expedition often requires a balanced party of skilled players with enough damage, tanking, and healing to survive. WAR Alongside the massive PvE experience that is Invasion, War is the biggest PvP experience in New World on launch. The 50-vs-50 game mode will function similarly, with the defenders attempting to hold their fort for 30 minutes while attackers look to break down the gates and capture it. Both attackers and defenders have a range of siege weapons to help them in combat. The winner will gain control of the territory. Should you buy the Deluxe Edition? Arguably, the most useful item from either the Standard or Deluxe Edition is the Isabella's Amulet item. This is just a straight-up boost for your early game, which will come in handy when you start the grind all over again come August 30. Yep. All the progress you make during the Closed Beta will be wiped, so don't get too attached to your character if you do pre-order. So, in conclusion: if you want to spend 10 dollars on some exclusive skins, go ahead. But really, there isn't a massive difference between the two, and if you purchase the Standard Edition you won't be missing out on anything too important. You get Isabella's Amulet with both Editions, which is the most important thing. That Mastiff might be kind of cool, though...

Crafted bags can roll a perk that gives them even more space. Just rolled an extra 68 weight on a bag. Really feels like it should have been 69 but I'll take it.

If I see an iron ore spawn, does that imply the same iron ore will respawn there after some time in the exact same position? Is there a way I can write down an x,y coordinate or know which x,y coordinate I'm at if so?

orange juche posted:So when you go to remove the stag anus glands, are you like just jamming a skinning knife up there or is it more like coring an apple or some other fruit? I felt compelled to answer this: when you kill a deer you reach inside their anus and slice out their pee gland and yank it through their buttholes. I've personally never done it, I've never killed a deer but I've had to sit through watching my dad do it way more times than healthy because "if you're going to eat it, you should know where it comes from" or some poo poo

To have any hope of topping Eve Echoes drama, we'll have to do this again two or three times over the next couple weeks. Company coffers must be embezzled, hopefully accompanied by a screenshot of a lengthy, private Discord message about holding it for "the greater good." Time is a flat circle.

So for some dumb reason I bought this game a few days ago, but have been too busy to actually try playing it until today. Character creation is locked everywhere anyone I know is playing, and it seems really doubtful they're going to allow transfers to high pop servers. Any plans to move any goon guilds to a lower pop server, or should I just refund while I can? Was interested in the pvp so it's probably not worth playing solo.

 (i was banned shortly thereafter) couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. For reference, the previous "poo poo i stirred up" was asking him to deal with Lumbering Troll using the word 'retarded' as a slur and generally being a toxic dickhead and him telling me it isn't against the server rules.

Since this info was in the other thread in the midst of the melt down: Twitch drops are available for various weapon skins. You can read about it here: https://www.newworld.com/en-us/twitch-drops#twitch-drops Currently I'm watching this towelliee person for the drops, but anyone on their twitch leaderboards list will work: https://twitch.tv/towelliee This person is awesome in that they went off to nap while sitting at a queue number 800 to start. But left the stream live for people to just feed on for drops. For tips on camping for drops if you are new to it, set the stream quality all the way down and then mute the tab with the stream in your browser. Someone in the previous thread they got drops even though the player was muted, but my own past experience had drops not working if the steam was muted. Thanks causticbeet for both settings to minimize impact to your computer while it ticks in the background. Btw, reports I had heard was that the next drop didn't happen until after you have claimed the previous. I have no idea if that is true as I'm just grabbing it whenever it comes up just to be safe. Next up, a pink pirate armor skin is available if you have amazon prime: https://gaming.amazon.com/loot/newworld Twitch and prime are both on offer until the 11th. Pirate pack number 2 (pirate cutlass sword skin for the rapier among others) will start on oct 12th. No idea on what the drop will be starting then, but I'm sure amazon will have something else lined up
