New World Dev Tracker

I think this is a new issue. From what I understand, it’s possible that new recipes aren’t being learned properly. I’ve added to the bug megathread here.

Thanks, I understand folks are frustrated. I will do my best to provide insights into what is happening on our side and continue to work with the team to make sure feedback is heard.

We just launched our first PTR. We are working to incorporate it as a tool into our development process. We’re learning how to use it to produce the best possible outcomes for everyone. So the feedback we receive is helpful, but yea, generally game studios don’t put everything they work on in a PTR.

I am not sure I understand, i am talking about employees working on the game can leave at any time, we wouldn’t need to harm our own business to get out. I changed the word “anyone” to employee to be clearer.

The divide between these two player styles, PvP and PvE, will be a long term challenge for us. Anything we do that improves the gameplay experience for one group will result in the other group feeling targeted, left out, or victimized.
We’ll continue to listen to the community, consider the desired game play experiences for each of these play styles and do our best to make sure both groups feel their desired gameplay is fun and rewarding.

We will not always put all content or features in a PTR, so please don’t expect that moving forward. We will use the PTR to test thing, but it may not be all things.

The story about harming the game for personal profit just doesn’t make any logical sense. We are legally required to work on New World, any employee can leave at any time.

We agree that we need to improve on the thoroughness of our patch notes. Folks are assigning malicious intent to error or oversight. We don’t purposefully leave notes out, we are working as a team to make sure we’re better at catching and communicating all changes.

We do review these reports. In addition to other methods of detection. I believe when it comes to botting we handle them in massive sweeps. I don’t want to speak to much about the process because my understanding is information about our methods to identify and deal with bots would be useful information for the folks who create them.

Weapon balance is an ongoing process. While during other phases of development it might not have been our top priority, you will see continued work there now that we are in a live service state.

I think you hit the nail on the head, right? The PTR was released too close to the scheduled release for much of the feedback to be implemented in that build, which was the player expectations. The lack of changes in the next release created the impression that none of the feedback was listened to or influenced the work the team was doing. So when future builds reflect the feedback we gathered it likely won’t overturn the impression of feedback being ignored. The team does understand this and we’ll continue to improve the way we use PTR moving forward.

Updated my previous post to include more information on gear score.

Morrow should be coming back very shortly. Thanks for the patience!

The world should be back now.

We are still working on it but it should be back soon

We looked into this and it should be resolved now. Please let us know if this is still ongoing.

Also looking into this one!

We are investigating. Thanks for the report!

We had to take the world down again, to do some addional work on it (no ETA at the moment). Sorry for the confusion.

US East worlds are starting up now.

Note: Diyu - Arkadia Coral on US East will need some additional work.
