Starting to lose players again

[Teladi]

I don't know if you noticed, but the game is starting to lose players again.

From 8.732 gain, now is 8.329 and the last week it were 9.000 something down to 8.732.

Personally, I think they spent the last year in prepare the game for console and very little in matchmaking and end game.

I can't believe that all the old content is more obsolete than never.

All the old Dungeons M1 to M3 makes absolutely no sense to do anymore.

OPR and Arenas rewards are terrible and the matchmaking is a bad joke. Almost every match end 1000 vs 100.

The only end game this game has right now, is do Hive once in the week and then farm a little bit, go the pvp area to gather resources and that's it.

I have to admit I enjoy do Hive because is challenging. But that's all, because the other activity i like, OPR, is a disappointment. Totally unbalanced and full of rangers builds.

Add the fact thet most casuals, solo or random players don't Raid at all, or if they do don't get past stage 1 in the raid.
They actually made 12 Expeditions obsolete and crafting more or less obsolete.

This developer team

And yes, i have quit and feel no urge logging in anymore either.
Last 2 tries i think i played 10 min, but the feeling of not having any way to progress is just making me log out. Its that simple.

I blame the older players to a degree aswell. As soon as the first raids started forming on my server the chat posts looked like this "+Gorgon, have EXP, bring trophies and consumables"

Yes i know you want a smooth run, but you also want a healthy community, and you just ruin it that way. Self proclaimed "elite" players tend to ruin most games for casual players, and in turn...themselves.

Why would anyone waste their own precious time? This is one of the most deranged ♥♥♥♥ i've ever heard... What kind of traumas did you have to become such a pathetic victim Who stops you from starting your own raid group?

Jesus christ chill brother, the guys not wrong though, the player base is tiny and even yet, they split the player base up into dozens of different groups that almost never interact. New worls is not an MMO lol, its just an O.

Yup. Those awesome PUG groups are what people are looking for.
The ones that cant clear anything before dissolving into nothing.
I mean, that's why people play this awesome game. That cool experience.

Maybe start looking into why things are like they are.
I mean, other content having access to 725GS would have solved it right?
You cant even craft 725GS gear without doing the raid.

Talk about creating an elitist atmosphere that leads to huge imbalances in endgame that are arguably PvP right?

Developers are clueless. Its that simple.

playerbase is still around double the amount before the beta most time of a weekday,
the numbers that had left were also just hypewaveriders and people without a roleplaying connection to their toons and people afraid of bugs.

most of them a weak in faith and hope and have less patience or stamina than most flies that enters your room while your window is open.

but still having settings that autoreset after each gaming session makes is unnecessary tedious to fix some server bandwide distress for yourself.

a lot of lazy people nowaday just declare any game dead because the global chat cant autogenerated a carrygroup to get the next rewardchest a few seconds after they cared to log in while chatting on a twich stream mainly.

The more you see of what they are doing With Aeternum the more you realise its just a cash grab. They are releasing existing events with no additions because to console players it IS new content, there is little or no effort to improve things. I would be very surprised if ANY new content is revealed even through 2025, slight chance something at end of year, even then whats the betting it will be an existing zone reskin....

AGS are not being honest and are setting themselves up for a wholesale UBISOFT style rejection from players. And it will be well deserved.

Amazon is a retailer and they have retailers in charge of there dev studio and it show's.

Enjoy it while you can, New World could have been huge, had real promise except it was placed in the hands of inept management.

Not going to change without something radical happening.

That's why i have played over 1500 hours in this game already. Because i just like to quit things. Im lazy..
I would actually love to have something to grind for, but i cant even do that. Because i need to raid. And i don't Raid, in any game. Because that means i need to interact with alot of unpleasant people i would rather toss out of a moving car.

Your answer is to wait, they will fix it eventually.
You mean this skeleton crew from AGS that concentrate on hippo skins when the game is broken?

Don't hold your breath.

Totally agree.
This console release is a cash grab for sure.
Its expected to go belly up before they move on to other things.
The missing promised Roadmap and skeleton crew working on the game evidence of that.

This isn't the gamers problem. This is the design of the raid due to DPS required for Typhon. If you don't have +15% and you aren't using the best DPS builds you're just not going to kill the boss.

Everyone started with ♥♥♥♥ groups not clearing anything, learned mechanics and now don't want to waste time, why would they now carry losers who cant even get few decent perks on armor? This doesn't make any sense at all. Better players want to play with better players to not waste time - that's completely normal.

But yes, AGS are absolute imbeciles and have no talent whatsoever. Not in management, not in game design, definitely not in engineering.

What unpleasant people? Why are you so sensitive, ever thought about that? I did it with random groups and we just had a laugh either dying on first boss for 3h or completing it in an hour. This is 100% you problem. You might wanna concentrate on your socializing issues, not play MMOs.

You just want carried. You're not interested in learning the raids through experience. You're the type of player those raid posts are for.
