For the 250 hours I've played this game I actually really enjoyed my time. Lots of ridiculous problems at times, but there aren't many games that have ever given me the feeling New World did on release. I absolutely loved it.
These modern MMOs just don't do it for me. I'm glad people are enjoying them because I know there is usually backlash involving major studios and MMO dev. I still can only play LotRO, swgo, Ultima and wow Ascension.
A big thing for me in MMO's is the sound effects. I think NW nails is. From combat to harvesting, the sounds are stunning and satisfying. Im looking forward to the release
The melee sounds could use a bit of a boost imo. It sounds so quiet like small sticks hitting instead of an impact of a full swing from a huge sword. Other than that they all sound great.
One small correction. They changed the musket awhile back. It's no longer hitscan. It's a projectile like the bow but it's smaller and moves quicker. Gotta lead your shots no more hitscan cheese lol
I think quite a few people would enjoy a New World updated video. Many of us tried it upon release and dropped it due to its many issues. Though, it'd be nice to see how it's changed since then. Suggestion: A simple vid where you play from the start, and show the first x amount of hours of gameplay (edited down, of course).
My advice is wear headphones while mining. This MMO has best in class sound design for gathering skills. Swinging your pickaxe or axe at a rock or tree is so satisfying to hear.
honestly if the devs started listening to people it wouldn't have a short coming, but yeah if they continue the trend you are right. need more of a end game loop with pvp and pve
@@T-Awnix why would you play on a server that is doom to die with only 1 platform, I could understand if it was x box and playstation but welcome to new world I guess, your server won't last long
@bobbythorton7693 the servers aren't gonna die. The game is selling extremely well on console and all those players will play on said servers. Why would I wanna go to an old server where everyone else is way better than me?
Being a noob is indeed the most memorable! Well said! I like how this is less punishing than Throne and Liberty. I think I will give this a try. Is aeternum different from the original or does it have an expansion?
For those interested in using some magic, there are elemental gems you can slot into any weapon to convert part of its damage to an element, and that damage will scale with INT or FOC, depending on the element. So you can have a Fire Greatsword that scales a bit with INT for example. It will do a lot less damage than a STR or DEX build, but it's viable.
best MMO out there RIGHT NOW. I played the launch too back in 2021 for a week but left because of the many flaws. Now however... As I said, best mmo on the market.
I was not going to get this game. But after hearing what you said about controller feel i change my mind. I seen gameplay about this game before was never interested. But it seems like the game had a lot of updates looks good. Your easy to follow explanation really hit home. Been a fan for years. Im getting this game on xbox. My combo based on my playstyle is Greatsword either with void gauntlet or frost.
Same. I used to avoid this game like a plague cause it felt severely undercooked. I just couldn't relate to how people resonated with it. But after seeing these updates esp the foundations of movement and combat have been fixed it finally looks ready. They can finally focus on content after this build comes out.
After being a guild leader on ESO in the past, I took a long break from MMO’s but came back on TL as a casual. And what I’ve found is that MMO players are just never happy. Millions are playing numerous MMO’s on the daily, but yet everywhere you look there’s complaining. Even under this video with the console version not even out yet. Both TL and NW are beautiful games that ppl can enjoy for a long time. Cave dwellers just need to get out more imo, it’s ridiculous.
Unfortunately, you can't enjoy NW for a long time because the current devs don't value your time. You can certainly enjoy the hell out of it for a short time though! It's such an amazing game but the shot callers are idiots and don't even play it. They desperately need to be replaced to retain the new player base.
There are very few games that are complete perfection (some come close, like Elden Ring), and until game reaches the absolute perfection, there has to be complaining and it is absolutely necessary that people complain about non perfect games. These multi billion dollar studios need to be delivering absolute perfection, because they have the money to do that and they have no excuses.
Great Sword and Bow combo was my favorite! Havent played NW in a couple years now, but I didnt follow any guides and it was one of the best MMO experiences I have had since GW2 launch (I started late and didnt play until a year+ from the disaster of a release)! There are problems with it, 100%. But I spent over 500 hours exploring, doing professions and getting into the mutated dungeons. I wish wars were easier to partake in, as I never got to be a part of one. PvP needs more of an incentive and more game modes, imo. I really hope this game doesnt die an the devs can get it together, cause I think the game has loads of unrealized potential.
Yeah ignore the meta it's really just for the "Perfect" Gameplay or dungeon runs in the game I usually go SnS/Warhammer for tanking and for dps Musket/Rapier or Blunderbuss/VG, some people just don't like some weapons especially ranged because there are better for dpsing in dungeons consistently , I get it but kinda takes the fun away if they're too serious about the game treating it like work. There are some people who don't care about these but when it happens "range" players miss or die easy so I guess there are also skill issue. My advice is find a grp or inv some friends to play with you for some dungeons it's an MMO so experience wise it's better to play it with friends, have some patience if you meet ppl who doesn't suit your taste, just relax and enjoy the game. FYI the game is pretty addictive so prepare to lose some family bonding time
Oh good, i get to see comments from people saying after 2k plus hours they ran out of things to do. I would say you got your money's worth considering this is not a subscription game. 20 bucks got you hundreds and hundreds of hours.
People with 2k+ hours in a game should be barred from making negative reviews 😂 Like you're either a liar or moron if you played a game you dislike for 2,000 hours...
Being ignorant isn't clever fyi. People complain because they like the game and want more. They were promised more, but all they got were botched updates and half a roadmap. After all that AGS dumped them to concentrate on console players. Making snide comments just for a few YT likes is quite pathetic imo. I got my 2k hours in by the time I quit last october due to all the above. I still want the game to be reborn and thrive.
@@dez_7425 lol man didn't mean to hit a nerve. I have heard the complaints but they usually fall into the nonsense category. They released a major dlc and now about to release the revamp of the game.... Which is given for free btw. Are people excited about the change? Nope just complaining. So... Sorry I upset you but my criticism stands. But I really don't give a shit about likes... I mean who even thinks like that. I wish you the best.
@@c1pherx new world fanboys are on some hard copium, console launch will be a complete shit show of bugs/exploits and gold dupes just like pc and they will abandon it in less than half a year when 95% of the playerbase leaves.. just like on pc.
3k hours player here, so this is the life cycle of nw > fresh server open > all of the old player started playing again > have a small reunion on windsward > shit talk and casual racism on global chat > rush levelling > gearing up > war > player base complain cuz 1 faction own the map > SPAM OPR > server died > see you next fresh server
Isn't this dev also making a lord of the rings game? Feels like this could be an amazing foundation for a lotr mmo. As great as lotro is, it feels ancient at this point and hasn't had many modern UX updates.
I think this is a great foundation. I don't mind new world, but I have zero connection to the world. If it was middle earth, I would gladly hang out and just fish for hours.
I was completely planning to come back for console bc I already own the DLC but I am just enjoying deadlock too much to start grinding on New World again. Time to give my time to people I can actually trust to make a good game and keep it good.
Can anyone answer these simple questions for me? No hate, I was an invested player on release but I quit because basic things weren't working correctly. 1 - can I use mounts without paying for the DLC? 2 - can I swim? 3- is the economy completely broken still? 4 - are factions and territories balanced or do you still find mono factions servers? 5 - is questing and lvling up tedious as it used to be? 6 - would you pay the full price of the game being a new player today?
1 no 2 probably, it is being added with on 15th 3 on legacy it defintiely is dead 4 you will never be perfectly balanced with faction on any server so you cant find servers with one of the factions dead 5 it is improved a lot 6 yes
The other reply is useless. 1. No, mounts are behind Angry Earth expansion 2. Yes swimming will be added on 15th update 3. If you start on a fresh server it most definitely won't be? Legacy servers had their issues but eventually fixed. 4. That all depends on the server, I'd say they rotate between balanced and mono as people quit/companies leave the server 5. No lvling is far easier, don't need to do those dumb town boards on repeat. I think the main quest line basically gets you there 6. After 2k hours for £50? Absolutely, despite the crap the past few years
Paying for the base game and dealing with dupes and other bugs every patch the expansion is a slap in the face to all the players who beta tested a paid game not worth ever playing again
Spear and Hatchet is still my favorite combo. Open with a javelin throw, whittle them down with axe throws, and then finish off with a big spear crit. Also tons of AoE and escape abilities. Plus it just REALLY feels good nailing a long-range hatchet throw.
This is likely an effort to give the game new life which is a good thing I had a lot of fun but update were slow coming. Hopefully they support the game better and listen to feedback.
This video does make me want to play again, even though I know it's sponsored fluff. Just going over all the weapons brings to mind the fun I had with knocking down enemies with the hammer and getting headshots with the bow. The only problem being, you know, once the honeymoon period was over and the endgame grind began it was kind of a mess. But the journey there really was something else.
I genuinely loved NW, it did something different compared to other MMOs and I appreciate that. I had a lot of fun playing on launch, i think it's time to return and try out the new expansion on release
@@notdeadpool1536 Interesting. I have the base game on PC. But I also have a PS5, and I might consider getting the game on there instead if the controller support is better.
Hey guys. If you turn off the Steam controller support you will find that on PC, New World has native controller support. I have a PC and it plays just the same as if I was playing on my PS5 when the beta was out. Check it out because everyone in the comments above seems to be misinformed.
@bradfordhatt555 thank you for informing me of this. I always have Steam input turned OFF, because I prefer native controller support. I will play on PC if it has it.
@@AesthMed so if i own the game, would i need to buy Elysian? or could i just get the angry earth and have it all? seems like elysian is kinda a bundle edition? but no extra content. i suppose i would be better off saying if i bought angry earth, would i need to get Elysian. or would i have everything.
@@IsThatDrakThere is only 1 expansion, Angry Earth. That includes the reworked area Elysian Wilds. This is a free update but you will be locked out of content if you don't have AE
It is only for PvE, and body shots only. It will not lead targets for you, so pretty useless at a distance. You will have to actively aim for headshots.
Really excited for Aternum and console players starting and joining in. Will be fun to create a new character and try out the revamped story and endgame content.
@@rank1132 repeatable solo soul trials, PvEvP free for all area to loot and extract for new gear and raid content including what there is already (expeditions, the worm trial, open world PvP, wars, invasions. Daily quest type missions. Not forgotten outpost rush and 3v3 arenas.
I was actually really excited for this but had no idea how much I would end up loving T&L; now they're going to have to compete for my time where T&L was initially just going to hold me over until this lmao. New World looks pretty great though and I love the Runescapeish nature with its skill systems which while some people hate and call needless grind I've always loved, gives you something meaningful to do when you don't feel like engaging in harder content.
I remember quitting this once it failed on PC and had literally no endgame or real challenges. Did that change? Also they take forever to release the most common sense weapon daggers...
Sponsored by New World is all I had to see. It is the same development team, it's just 1 last ditch cash grab effort. 0 faith in the product they will deliver after their track record. They've had 1 OPR (PVP) map since the game came out, how is that actually possible? New PVE wards every expansion, no practice wars, small dying servers, outfits in the game look like a 12 year old designed them. The list goes on and on.
Negativity will not get you far in life. I played this game every winter since launch. It has improved massively & was not bad when it came out, just had seriously bad mistakes with economy and such. Played the beta, it is like a whole new game. I agree some of the things you said, but it is still the best MMO in a decade & nothing else is worth playing in the genre unless you are already heavily invested in something older.
? pve wards were removed a year ago and servers now hold more than 2x the amount of people compared to launch... do u even know what a cash grab is btw?
@@VeryNiceKanye Money doesn't mean anything in game development, look at Star Citizen, garbage. Most AAA games released these days, garbage. You need a team of people who lives and breathes for the game, not a team that develop a game for a pay day.
I grinded over 150 hours of new world on its initial launch. Heres why I quit playing. The first week was really fun getting to Max level and learning the crafting system. After reaching max level I enlisted into the territory wars, there was 3 factions. I chose purple but the orange faction was the dominant one on the server. They ended up owning every city and the fights weren't even close on the wars. Most of our enlisted weren't even max level yet whilst the other faction had way better players. This made the endgame very frustrating and almost pointless of playing. If they owned the cities you couldn't take out your loot in that city while in another city. The end game felt really bad imo and lost interest very quickly.
I got Prime, do I get to play for free on PS5? genuine question, I dont really follow mmos and what not but I would like to check this one out if its soulslike ❤
I skipped T&L global release for this. There is such a charm in New World that I couldn't get rid off, but I stopped playing before The Angry Earth DLC due to my change of schedules at work. I've been trying to find a reason to hop back on not just to admire the scenery, but to actually have a purpose. I'm excited for it.
I'd recommend just enjoying the slow ride and not rushing to max level. A lot of people get burned out quickly because they rush to end game and miss out on a lot of the fun stuff this game has to offer at earlier levels.
Wait by your own admission you couldn’t find a reason to play NW other than to just look around until now and the game’s been out for 3 years and costs $60, but you “skipped out” on a game that can be loaded up for free because now you’ll finally have something to do in NW? You wasted $60 and you’re excited to return?
I still think NW is a bad game. like, legitimately bad. It's good compared to the climate of MMOs now a days, or if you're just addicted to or desperate for MMOs I guess. My buddy has 6000+ hours in NW, and he's never been able to convince me its good. I've tried several times, came back after the expansion and the reworked leveling, and I have fun for a few levels, and then I'm just bored. I find the combat and the progression to be bad in this game. I don't like how builds work and the weapons. The couple of weapons I somewhat enjoyed, don't work well together, limiting how I play, further hindering my fun. Chopping trees was fun at first, but it all quickly became a boring, and the town board felt like a chore. Never even made it to max level.
It will appear on October 15th. OR you can buy New World with the Rise of the Angry Earth DLC, and you will automatically get an update to download it on Oct 15.
I just wish the devs actually showed some kind of passion and care for the game... It just seems like this will be another quick cash grab for them before they move onto something else which drives me insane. This game has everything laid out for them to make it a massive hit, but they've just been letting it rot...
Someone tell this man that there is aim bot in the game now, so that really would change how he rates ranged weapons! Unless the drama about the inclusion of aim lock is being changed or scrubbed, I think this is rather important information to include in a combat review!
You mean hardlock? The most basic action rpg/soulslike mechanic that won't allow you to take headshots, trajectory aim and quick turns? It actually sounds detrimental in chaotic large scale pvp or against people who are good at maneuvering like in elden ring pvp.
@@neologismx Skill issue. Elden Ring has a tighter hardlock and yet with skill you can actually maneuver, align and trigger a backstab in PvP. In a large scale scenario in NW you'd be locked on to 1 guy which leaves you vulnerable to others. So why waste the extra input when you can be twitchy and handle multiple people at once? Head shot them all even if you're an absolute god. Possibilities that are hindered when hardlocked.
@@Oryyyt your arguing one single point in a handful of situations only in one pvp mode (large scale). I argue in all other pvp modes this is a terrible 'addition' to the health of the game.
He's right about not doing meta builds and just have fun. My most favorite "class" was cranking intelligence and using musket and blunder since they both scaled 65%. After end game and adjusting some perks I made it so my utilities kept me above the rest! It's a fun y paly style and no one on my server used that wonky match up besides me
@@Sincerity1993 yeah that’s why I figured I’d do a test to see how it was now. I actually like it now with a controller. I’ll never do mouse/keyboard again.

This is likely an effort to give the game new life which is a good thing I had a lot of fun but update were slow coming. Hopefully they support the game better and listen to feedback.
This video does make me want to play again, even though I know it's sponsored fluff. Just going over all the weapons brings to mind the fun I had with knocking down enemies with the hammer and getting headshots with the bow. The only problem being, you know, once the honeymoon period was over and the endgame grind began it was kind of a mess. But the journey there really was something else.
yup the journey to max lvl and refining and mining and crafting just something else
Hey bro great video and a new sub. You are right being a noob is fun until you are the master 😏
Wasn't the musket updated to use projectiles instead of being hitscan like 1 year ago with the Rise of the Angry earth expansion?
Yes
Yes so shows how Peons quality has been dropping over the last few years. Getting lazy
I can’t wait
Honestly "Enjoy being a noob" is a good tip for just about any MMO. 🙂 Nice Vid!
Is it possible for our character to walk? Or is it run only?
As a viking enthusiast and general lover of axes, the lack of coverage on the hatchet has me going :(
I loved NW. Can't wait to get back in it!
I genuinely loved NW, it did something different compared to other MMOs and I appreciate that. I had a lot of fun playing on launch, i think it's time to return and try out the new expansion on release
Is this game safe now? Or is it still blowing up graphics cards or w/e it was doing to PCs a while back?
I havent played in a long time, but I think the hatchet throw slows targets so you can catch up to them?
Are there fresh servers coming with this update?
Cannot fking wait ❤ please do updated content for this for console players ❤❤
The question is... Is there enough people for pvp to be good? And are the BIS gear still a lot of grind? Thanks!
funny fact: I had 1.3k hours on controller when the game released...playing a pretty sweaty healer w/ linear inputs was stress×5
Is anybody having massive loading and rendering issues? I’ve had this on my laptop and Lenovo go so open to any feedback 🙏🏻
Has it always had native controller support on PC?
Nope, they actually made it perfect for consoles specially ps5
I have it on pc and controller right now it’s nothing compared to it
It has not. There are community controller maps available on Steam, but most felt very clunky.
@@notdeadpool1536 Interesting. I have the base game on PC. But I also have a PS5, and I might consider getting the game on there instead if the controller support is better.
Hey guys. If you turn off the Steam controller support you will find that on PC, New World has native controller support. I have a PC and it plays just the same as if I was playing on my PS5 when the beta was out. Check it out because everyone in the comments above seems to be misinformed.
@bradfordhatt555 thank you for informing me of this. I always have Steam input turned OFF, because I prefer native controller support. I will play on PC if it has it.
this game holds a special place in my aaaaaaa
hmmm might be worth picking up again, is this a free update or expansion? pretty sure i dont yet own the last expansion yet but always planned to.
This update comes with the last expansion(Rise of the Angry Earth).
@@AesthMed so if i own the game, would i need to buy Elysian? or could i just get the angry earth and have it all? seems like elysian is kinda a bundle edition? but no extra content.
i suppose i would be better off saying if i bought angry earth, would i need to get Elysian. or would i have everything.
@@IsThatDrakThere is only 1 expansion, Angry Earth. That includes the reworked area Elysian Wilds. This is a free update but you will be locked out of content if you don't have AE
@@dez_7425 cool, i have got AE now anyways, i just wanted to make sure lol thanks
@@AesthMed no it doesnt. if u wanna ride mount u ahve to buy the expansion. kinda suux
Where is the Purchase link in description...??
Great video, but wish you would’ve shown the actual controls to use abilities on controller. Is it like BDO or more like ESO?
I just hope Rapier + Firestaff + Light armor is still good. Was amazing at launch
isnt there like built in aim bot for range weps? or have they removed this?
It is only for PvE, and body shots only. It will not lead targets for you, so pretty useless at a distance. You will have to actively aim for headshots.
Where's the combat u.i? I wanna see the layout
did they fixed CPU optimization or I just have to burn my pc again playing NW?
Yes
On PC I never miss the throwing hatchet
I have almost 500 hours on New World, I made great friends and had a lot of fun. But unfortunately, I always felt like something was missing!
Really excited for Aternum and console players starting and joining in. Will be fun to create a new character and try out the revamped story and endgame content.
There's revamped endgame content?
@@rank1132 repeatable solo soul trials, PvEvP free for all area to loot and extract for new gear and raid content including what there is already (expeditions, the worm trial, open world PvP, wars, invasions. Daily quest type missions. Not forgotten outpost rush and 3v3 arenas.
I was actually really excited for this but had no idea how much I would end up loving T&L; now they're going to have to compete for my time where T&L was initially just going to hold me over until this lmao. New World looks pretty great though and I love the Runescapeish nature with its skill systems which while some people hate and call needless grind I've always loved, gives you something meaningful to do when you don't feel like engaging in harder content.
T&L i’m loot grinding/guild running but for NW im gonna take it sloooow and enjoy leveling crafting and gathering
How's the story & characters though I need to know
Seems like they didn't added much in this besides controller support, a few tweaks and 1 map for opr?
this is less an update and more a relaunch
I remember quitting this once it failed on PC and had literally no endgame or real challenges. Did that change? Also they take forever to release the most common sense weapon daggers...
The musket is not actually hitscan anymore, they changed this some time ago this year iirc. The projectiles travel now.
Any optimisation improvements? The silent killer I think was that it alienated 90% of players that had 20-30 fps during large fights.
Huge optimisations apparently with the update on the 15th. Will see when it drops
@bs5am completely fixed, no more lag with wars or anything. The streamers showed it off during the beta. It's fantastic
Is this video mistitled? I was looking for info on playing with a controller. Not a basic video on the game itself.
Best lumber jack simulator.
Sponsored by New World is all I had to see. It is the same development team, it's just 1 last ditch cash grab effort. 0 faith in the product they will deliver after their track record. They've had 1 OPR (PVP) map since the game came out, how is that actually possible? New PVE wards every expansion, no practice wars, small dying servers, outfits in the game look like a 12 year old designed them. The list goes on and on.
But they have an investment for 10 years. Do you know how much money Amazon has lol
Negativity will not get you far in life. I played this game every winter since launch. It has improved massively & was not bad when it came out, just had seriously bad mistakes with economy and such. Played the beta, it is like a whole new game. I agree some of the things you said, but it is still the best MMO in a decade & nothing else is worth playing in the genre unless you are already heavily invested in something older.
? pve wards were removed a year ago and servers now hold more than 2x the amount of people compared to launch... do u even know what a cash grab is btw?
@@VeryNiceKanye Money doesn't mean anything in game development, look at Star Citizen, garbage. Most AAA games released these days, garbage. You need a team of people who lives and breathes for the game, not a team that develop a game for a pay day.
Bye bye Doomer
I grinded over 150 hours of new world on its initial launch. Heres why I quit playing. The first week was really fun getting to Max level and learning the crafting system. After reaching max level I enlisted into the territory wars, there was 3 factions. I chose purple but the orange faction was the dominant one on the server. They ended up owning every city and the fights weren't even close on the wars. Most of our enlisted weren't even max level yet whilst the other faction had way better players. This made the endgame very frustrating and almost pointless of playing. If they owned the cities you couldn't take out your loot in that city while in another city. The end game felt really bad imo and lost interest very quickly.
I got Prime, do I get to play for free on PS5? genuine question, I dont really follow mmos and what not but I would like to check this one out if its soulslike ❤
For free no
@@propersod2390 ty
@@n8doggy733 worth the money if you like mmos with action combat, a better version of eso
Is there an updated roadmap for this game? Need to know before I buy it.
Next roadmap doesn't drop until after the update. I too am skeptical that they will hold the roadmap until after..
I skipped T&L global release for this. There is such a charm in New World that I couldn't get rid off, but I stopped playing before The Angry Earth DLC due to my change of schedules at work. I've been trying to find a reason to hop back on not just to admire the scenery, but to actually have a purpose. I'm excited for it.
I'd recommend just enjoying the slow ride and not rushing to max level. A lot of people get burned out quickly because they rush to end game and miss out on a lot of the fun stuff this game has to offer at earlier levels.
@@jefepeeps4308 what end game? New world is just a soulless souls.
I definitely think New World is one of those games where it just feels good to exist in the world, but yeah I also sometimes feel a lack of purpose
Wait by your own admission you couldn’t find a reason to play NW other than to just look around until now and the game’s been out for 3 years and costs $60, but you “skipped out” on a game that can be loaded up for free because now you’ll finally have something to do in NW?
You wasted $60 and you’re excited to return?
@@josephjones1093 if you don't join a mega guild in T&L, then the end game in that game sucks too. What's your point?
As much as I’m enjoying throne and liberty.. I miss the simplicity of new world. No crazy menus and gearing up doesn’t feel like calculus
Ah yes the hitscan musket. glad you've been an active player and did some solid research
Can I play this game on PC right now with a default controller setup?
I still think NW is a bad game. like, legitimately bad. It's good compared to the climate of MMOs now a days, or if you're just addicted to or desperate for MMOs I guess. My buddy has 6000+ hours in NW, and he's never been able to convince me its good. I've tried several times, came back after the expansion and the reworked leveling, and I have fun for a few levels, and then I'm just bored. I find the combat and the progression to be bad in this game. I don't like how builds work and the weapons. The couple of weapons I somewhat enjoyed, don't work well together, limiting how I play, further hindering my fun. Chopping trees was fun at first, but it all quickly became a boring, and the town board felt like a chore. Never even made it to max level.
All the best to the new players. Mute Mr Louis Vuitton ❤🎉
How do I get Aeternum? It doesn't show up in steam
It will appear on October 15th. OR you can buy New World with the Rise of the Angry Earth DLC, and you will automatically get an update to download it on Oct 15.
u prob have it, if u have the dlc+game, then ur set
I just wish the devs actually showed some kind of passion and care for the game... It just seems like this will be another quick cash grab for them before they move onto something else which drives me insane. This game has everything laid out for them to make it a massive hit, but they've just been letting it rot...
Someone tell this man that there is aim bot in the game now, so that really would change how he rates ranged weapons! Unless the drama about the inclusion of aim lock is being changed or scrubbed, I think this is rather important information to include in a combat review!
They said they are making changes to it
You mean hardlock? The most basic action rpg/soulslike mechanic that won't allow you to take headshots, trajectory aim and quick turns? It actually sounds detrimental in chaotic large scale pvp or against people who are good at maneuvering like in elden ring pvp.
@@Oryyyt and you can't ever hit your target from behind because they will automatically track and follow/face you 100% of the time...
@@neologismx Skill issue. Elden Ring has a tighter hardlock and yet with skill you can actually maneuver, align and trigger a backstab in PvP. In a large scale scenario in NW you'd be locked on to 1 guy which leaves you vulnerable to others. So why waste the extra input when you can be twitchy and handle multiple people at once? Head shot them all even if you're an absolute god. Possibilities that are hindered when hardlocked.
@@Oryyyt your arguing one single point in a handful of situations only in one pvp mode (large scale).
I argue in all other pvp modes this is a terrible 'addition' to the health of the game.
what skin is that @14:09
I would love to do the noob it, i do love that in all game, love to work it out on my own.
But wont pay to play it.
Peon, you forgot to put the New World store page in the description.
He's right about not doing meta builds and just have fun. My most favorite "class" was cranking intelligence and using musket and blunder since they both scaled 65%. After end game and adjusting some perks I made it so my utilities kept me above the rest! It's a fun y paly style and no one on my server used that wonky match up besides me
i like the game, last time i played it took them way to long to fix a bug so i couldn't progress in the story line, so that just made me quit
I tested the game on my ps5 controller last night and I must say I actually like the combat now. I hated it before.
did it change something? I stopped playing bc of this, I could never like the combat
@@mrtembo1995 yeah it has native support now. You don’t have to work with a janky controller mapping system. It plays so much better now.
Never liked the combat much even on PC it was bad.
@@Sincerity1993 yeah that’s why I figured I’d do a test to see how it was now. I actually like it now with a controller. I’ll never do mouse/keyboard again.
Its awesome on controller❤️
New World with controller feels good different
Should have had a mount in the base game, but sold out to you in the expansion. I was done then and there
I enjoy TL but I think I will switch to NW on 15th
Can I play new world on all my play station accounts as long as I buy it on the main account ?
