New World Dev Tracker

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.

Hi @Chief_Savage, thanks for the post.

At this time, we do not have plans for additional server merges. That being said, we are always looking at the status of worlds and will merge as needed. In the future when we identify a merge is required, we will of course let our players know so that you all can plan appropriately.

Everyone who was eligible should have received a transfer token. If not, I would recommend you reach out to our Support team through their website.

Thanks for feedback on OPR scoring. We agree there is room for improvement on this front. For our next release we are making some changes that have already been tested in the February PTR:

• Dealing damage now increases the player’s score.
• Reduced the amount of points granted from killing players.
• Reduced the amount of points granted from killing AI.

And there is more to come in the future. The biggest change we will be making is to reward points for capturing points in OPR. We’re working on this internally atm and will let you know when its ready for PTR testing.

I’m sorry but as some of the people mentioned above, we aren’t able to provide additional transfer tokens from the ones that have already been provided. Should that change in the future, you’ll find information in the Official News section but at this time, we don’t have plans to give more.

Hey there, thanks for the question!

Sorry for the vague-ish response but the team tries to read all of the feedback that’s submitted. We absolutely love seeing our players’ thoughts and feelings for the mechanics we implement in game and, as you can see from our Gypsum and tuning orb changes, we do hear your feedback so please keep submitting them!

That’s a nice list you’ve got there @Blackxp. Well thought out, thorough. I appreciate the comprehensiveness.

If you were to stack rank the ones you would want to see happen first, what would your top 10 be? I personally think misplaces sounds like the kind of mayhem I like, but I’d like to get your (all the players posting here) perspectives.

Nice set up @L.Nova

@Vermintide yours too, looks cozy - I’ve also forwarded the props thread you shared with the team who works on furniture items, some interesting call outs there. Appreciate the feedback.

Thanks for the feedback everyone. We hear you and definitely plan on sharing a high level roadmap in the future. We want players to be able to see what is coming and get excited about it, and to provide early feedback/thoughts on it.

We are still finalizing the format, level of detail, and duration we are going to share, so give us some time. But we plan on sharing a roadmap when its ready.

I hear you and I want to get those out asap but all in good time, my friend.

Also just in case, we do have a Dev Tracker for all official responses: New world development team - New World Forums

Unfortunately it doesn’t seem that you can subscribe to them but we are around!

Full world status will be removed from the following worlds within 2 hours of this post:

Central Europe

• Learad
• Avalon
• Bran
• Brittia
• Ship-Trap
• Tartarus
• Evonium
• Vega

US-East

• Eden

South America

• Apsu
• Devaloka

Australia

• Lagado
• Utopia

Note that world statuses that were set by our system and not manually adjusted ahead of the token rollout (e.g. those mentioned above), may change in the future, but will not be accompanied by an announcement.

From what I understand, all eligible players should have received this token. You may be able to ask Customer Service for a token since they handle all account/character-specific issues/concerns but I’m unsure if they’ll be able to provide one to you.

If your friend has submitted an “Appeal a Ban” ticket, our Game Moderation team will review it. However, the forums are not a place for players to appeal bans, nor can we publicly disclose any information for this case.

I will be closing this thread since we don’t allow ban appeals here but I will reach out to the team to review the request.
