New World Dev Tracker

Hey everyone

I just want to set expectations on the development teams involvement and contributions here on this and other subreddits. While the game remains under NDA you can expect the team to not engage here. We stood up official forums for Alpha testers to give their direct feedback on the current feel and mechanics of the game. That is where we will be spending most of our time engaging with players who can speak openly about the game.

As the Community Manager for New World right now, I go where the players are. I keep my finger on the pulse of the conversations that are happening around the internet in regards to New World. This is one of the many places that I check in on daily. I look for hot button topics that it's clear there is confusion on and try and work them into future pieces of content like Dev Blogs. You won't see us weighing into or expanding on anything that hasn't been directly talked about outside of official channels.

This will all c...

Don't retweet us. Retweet that post from Jovi99 if you want to help him.

Agreed, as I stated above we will have multiple ways that we're going to be giving out Alpha keys between now and Closed Beta.

Yeah, I used to be the Community Manager for H1Z1, we ran a surprise and delight campaign on Twitter by sending out keys every hour. Quickly learned my lesson with that one.

We're currently working on blogs about War and Invasion while also working on Dev Diary 4. Fret not, we're still going to be pumping out info. Same with the date for Closed Beta, once we have a solidified date to share, we absolutely will.

AND we're still inviting players into the Closed Alpha weekly so keep an eye on your e-mail.

We did send out a bad batch of codes to a few players but we are re-issuing those codes and sending out more to those affected. Please keep an eye on your e-mail for your new code.

Let me double check with Customer Support. I will respond to this thread when I have a verified answer.

EDIT: Just made sure that my info was correct, yes you will be receiving the Deluxe Edition

Let me look into this with Customer Service and get back to this thread. I want to make sure I provide the correct information.

Thanks for calling this out. It was a slight oversight in the blog that we’ll get updated today. Accepting a PvP Faction mission will auto-flag you for PvP. Unflagging yourself will automatically abandon the mission. Dying during your PvP mission will cause you to fail it and you’ll have to go back and take another.

Correct

It's a randomized drawing. Pre-ordering the game doesn't give you a leg up. Pre-ordering does however get you guaranteed access to Closed Beta.
