New World Dev Tracker

Greetings Adventurers,

Our third New World Team Update is out! Our team discusses reducing friction in game, the February Update, and more. Check it out below:

Thanks for the feedback, appreciate the details provided and I’ve sent it along to the team working on furniture along with the other furniture request linked in this thread.

Thanks for the post @deyjasagus

Folks should be providing their New World app data details to the Customer Support team, not removing them, as a step prior to changing any of the New World app data. That information is necessary for our investigation into this issue. Thanks also for the suggestions, I’ll pass this along to the support team to review.

Pulling logs and seeing if a restart will unstick these zones. When we come back from downtime please let me know if the issue has persisted.

Thanks, I’m getting someone to investigate ASAP.

What server are you on?

Nice set up! How much for a pint?

@Rabbi the ice chandelier is one of my favorite pieces - looks good in that house

@HosnianPrime creative use of the space ...

Hey @Relentless_Turnip (nice handle btw ) thanks for the post, I have shared the sentiment with our combat team. While we won’t remove the root mechanic, I can see room for improvement/adjustments. Thanks again.

I see your pings but I don’t have any new information to share. When we have an update on this, we’ll post it on the Official News section. I’d definitely recommend subscribing to that section by pressing the little bell in that section so you don’t miss any of our announcements.

Current player population is one of many metrics we look at to determine worlds that should/should not be merged. Though impactful, and definitely something we keep a close eye on, it is not the only metric.

In general we agree with the sentiment that its too difficult to win wars as an attacker. And while we want to give some advantage to defenders to reward them for the investment in their territories, its currently too much and negatively impacting territory politics and making it very difficult to usurp some established companies.

We are testing some smaller balance changes internally which we hope give attackers more of a chance, but we want to be careful not to swing the pendulum too far the other way, so we are taking a bit more time to test and iterate on these changes. Longer term we love the idea of having more people involved in the outcome of war, even if they aren’t directly participating in the war, but that isn’t something we will be focusing on for a while.

WHOA! That is wild. Can you climb the tower?

Also @Vermintide I have always wanted to see someone do that conspiracy meme - what world are you on? where is that house? I’d like to see it.
