66% find the beta of New World good, but disturb 2 things

In a survey we wanted to know about Meinmmo readers as they find the Beta VieNew World. A large part of you is excited about the game, but there is also criticism. For two of these criticisms, almost all agreed - even those who find the MMO positive.

Where are the numbers? At the weekend we started a survey about the beta of New World. Stand 26th of July at 11:00 - 2,681 people participated. So the survey went from:

  • 933 people have rated the beta with "good" (34.80%)
  • 838 participants even attested the beta a "super" (31.26%)
  • After all, 514 people have chosen the Golden Center with "OK" (19.17%)
  • 222 people found the beta so far "not good" (8.28%)
  • Only 174 have indicated a "terrible" as conclusion (6.49%)

This keeps a large majority the beta of New World for really good. But although the beta arrives well, there is always criticism. You have shared your opinion in more than 100 comments below the news with us and we reveal what you are good and what you fishing badly.

Character creation and server are a problem for almost all

Which criticisms came up again and again? There are two things that were mentioned in almost every comment as negative aspects:

  • On the one hand, the players bother at the weak character creation. There is little settings there. The existing faces and hairstyles are even too similar for some players. Some players see the danger that almost all players look like in the endgame. This criticism was already a few hours after the start of the beta.
  • On the other hand, there is criticism of the servers. In addition to the problems of queues and frequent maintenance work, the fact also complains that the servers are not assigned to any language. So it is always on European servers again and again to understanding problems, which can not be solved over the chat.

Our reader Dalung writes in his criticism New World:

1 . I'm not in my mind why you have not even assigned what certain nationalities at 36 servers. Also makes Irre Spap, when everything in Polish, French, English, Spanish, Italian is moved. As soon as there is something in the direction of "search guild" or the like one can assume that 100 others do that in their national language. [...].

4 . Character creation ... was already enough about it, that's why only briefly: every MMORPG / Solo-RPG of the last 20 years has more and better choices. [...].

Even Finai is strongly disturbed at the character creation:

I feel the worst thing about this character creation. I can live with prefabricated faces and do not need sliders or something. But at New World you have the feeling that made extra ugly grands. Honestly, who spent this? Has there been hammered for so long until it was no longer ugly? If you think then you want to make money with Item Shop about costumes and cosmetic items .... Fits in my opinion. I do not need horny clothes in such "faces".

But also players who see New World total very positively have problems with exactly these criticisms. Our reader Hisuinoi has collected a long list of positive and negative aspects and would also have another solution for language barriers:

I am very excited about New World and will be guaranteed to play it, Steam already bought it to the preview. Also, I will have fun for months, no doubts. But I also have Pro and Contras I perform immediately [...].

Contra: - The chat system is not completely bad, but unfortunately there are better systems. And the most important thing when more languages ​​are on a server, the option must be pure "English, German, etc. chat" - Just as it looks, unfortunately there are no de-servers, which I really get a pity.

The combat system depends heavily on taste

New World relies on a very own combat system that requires you to see the opponent and beat in his direction. However, the fight is associated with long animations, which makes it rather tactically as a action rich. The system with the weapon change and the few skills does not like each.

What do the fans of the combat system say? The positive voices praise the high skill the game requires, as well as the diverse weapons:

  • Nico writes: "The combat system is really varied and skillatic, I also like the skilltrees."
  • Koshin praises mainly the goals and evokes: "Finally a skill-based combat system, in which one needs to go through / unseen / block at the right moment."
  • Noru also moves the Battle System of New World playing above all like Black Desert: "Even worse than Tab Tageting are MMOs like BDO or Lost Ark. Every skill makes damages, everything is aoe and you just fight through 10-20 mobs. Normal attacks stumble even for 0.5 seconds in Lost Ark, which makes it even easier and ider. At New World I find good that you really have to respond to opponents, as certain hits really pain. Similar to Monster Hunter or Dark Souls. "

What do the critics say? The negative voices find the combat system especially desolately and "unfinished".

  • Get_r3kt writes: "For me, the combat system is rather dull! From width 1-2 shot with the bow (if necessary a capability) then blow, blow with the Beil and Block, blow, blow, block and every 15 seconds a skill. Everything else are only slight variations. "
  • Dalung says to the struggles: "The combat system is just scrap, especially in ranging. It's going to get rid of that in ranged fighting a lot less harm than melee weapons (with the sword I need 3-4 beats, with ranged weapons like muskets, bows, I need wands at the same enemy 10-12 matches). Dodging is for the butt because he always hangs somewhere in the pampa anyway and hardly avoid ... "

Overall, the ghosts of the combat system divorce, with the total positive impressions outweighing at least in our comments.

The Twitch Streamer Shroud also sees an aspect in the special combat system with which New World could be properly successful:

New World convinces with crafting, exploration and many freedoms

What is praised by many? One of the positive aspects of the game is the crafting system. Because by collecting and making it can not only come to useful equipment, but also levels. In addition, the craft can be produced the best equipment in the game, which is very important as positive:

  • Our reader Hisuinoi is very much done by crafting: "So the crafting system is not only stumper Grind [...]. You can obtain better values ​​by re-crafting, which equals training. If higher-quality materials are then used, the lowest value is higher. [...]. If you do not see that you can have a big influence here, I have to say somehow that you are probably blind. Something I have experienced in any other MMO / MMORPG, which interested me. It was always about pure coincidence. "
  • Nico writes: "Collecting resources is really good, you can make a nice chilly by the way. I find it better than in most other MMOs because you can also lieble without looking for hours. "
  • Nesta is mainly done by the quick production of many items: "Here are a few little things that I really like: Crafting. Making an object and manufacture 100 items will take the same length, no hours, stupid, monotone in front of him. "

Our reader Damian is generally done by crafting and exploration: "I really enjoy exploring, discovering and crafting in New World."

The issue of exploration was also mentioned by some other readers as a positive aspect because the pretty and mysterious world of New World invites.

Doubts about Amazon as a developer

What do our readers say about Amazon? Conspicuous to our comments is that some readers do little trust little, just because it comes from Amazon or amazon solely responsible for the hype:

For example, Hamurator waits with the purchase because Amazon is the developer: "New World has a few interesting elements, but the development history of Amazon as well as from New World in particular is pretty ... turbulent. I do not trust the roast yet and wait the first impressions of other players before I gave myself. "

In addition to the shifts from New World, Hamurator probably plays on the problems with the previous Games from Amazon:

  • The first title of the Studio - Breakaway - after a test on the GamesCom 2017 only a few months later was set.
  • Also the shooter Crucible, which appeared 2020, was set after just a few months.

Some readers also criticize that Amazon would actually manage the servers better because they would have to have the capacities to counteract the queues and crashes.

On the other hand, our reader Alexmk doubts whether the Hype is justified by New World or is only there because Amazon is the developer. He sees the success of Amazon rather at the coming Lost Ark:

"My question is too, what if there is not Amazon behind? Then the hype would not be there and the game would probably disappear with this stood in the sinking and you would never hear something about it. It is not a really bad game, it's just totally unfinished and would probably have needed another year. Amazon will not succeed with your own game, but with a game of Game from Korea. "

Your opinion: What do you think about New World and also the praise and the criticism that our readers have expressed? Will you play for the release on August 31 or leave the MMO rather left?

Who wants to find out about all innovations since the test in the summer of 2020, finds an overview here: New World has changed greatly in the last 11 months - now has dungeons and more Open World PVP.
