New World players complained about War PTR Test ending abruptly due to devs error

Some time ago, New World development team finally launched the long-awaited Leaderboards test. Just yesterday, the team held a PTR with the community, but the results were not as expected. According to most player statements, they ended this War PTR early because of some underlying backend bug. The discussion on this topic in the New World community is also intensifying, and many people who have high hopes for this are full of righteous indignation and ask the developers to  buy New World Coin find an explanation.

In New World Reddit, many players expressed the feeling of being “played by” in their opinions.

  • Relevant-Guarantee25: “I get the feeling they did this on purpose so they can use it as an example in the next video lol”;
  • darknetwork: “The devs can’t even beat elite area with their own team.”
  • WorldwideDepp: “Well, maybe we speak for them as if we know better, and the developers have their ears perked up because they think they really do know better… or maybe not. Yes, I am talking about arrogance”.

There are many other remarks that mocked New World’s behavior, mainly because of the early publicity of PTR, which made players have grand illusions and expectations, and because of the technical errors of the devs, which led to the serious failure of this event.

We all know that in the December 2022 New World’s Winter Convergence update, devs introduced some new rules to curb the fight against “Shell Companies” and make the war fairer. These rules mean that an attacking company can have a maximum of 25 mercenaries, while a defending company can have a maximum of 10 mercenaries. The rest of the roster can only be corporate members. And this rule also applies to War PTR.

When the war started, although there were hundreds of players taking part in the battle, everything should have been carried out according to the rules. But the current facts show that the world is unpredictable! So when the devs realized that there was a serious problem, everything came to a screeching halt. This is a complete waste of a lot of New World Coins and hard work that players have prepared for PTR.

In the official New World CM post, they say they are trying to remove the restrictions on mercenaries when the war is moving too fast. The official response also promises to do better, especially after two abandoned PTR tests.

“While it’s a different issue than the last time we had a war in the PTR, we respect that this has happened twice now and it’s not a good time. We will take important steps to avoid this in the future.”

Even so, according to New World’s current initiatives, we can see that devs still want to do a good job in Leaderboards. We should be able to see more tests. It’s just that this mistake has greatly affected players’ confidence in continuing to play New World. We can only say that let’s look forward to what will happen next!

New World – Upon completing the Nightveil Hallow quest

Fresh off the release of its inaugural expansion, New World, Amazon Games is embracing the spooky season with the much-anticipated return of the Nightveil Hollow event in October. This year’s iteration promises fresh rewards, an engaging event quest, and the revival of the formidable Baalphazu.

Mark your calendars for the event’s revival, commencing on October 18th and continuing through November 14th. Dive into the event quest to earn enticing rewards and, of course, immerse yourself in the Halloween spirit by donning costumes and embarking on the age-old tradition of trick-or-treating for candy.

Costumes can be acquired as town centerpieces or through drops from Baalphazu. The event offers a choice of costumes, including Captain Thorpe, Adiana, Anubian Reaver, and Lost Monarch.

Once you’re in costume, the hunt begins as you scour each town for hidden treat baskets. Discovering these baskets grants you the chance to obtain Baalphazu armor pieces, Nightveil Tokens, and a new addition for this year – candy. There are four distinct types of candy to uncover, and they are time-limited consumables. It’s a delightful surprise to see how these treats impact your experience, as System Designer Joel Clift hints, “Some may greatly aid you in event activities, while others might bring unexpected consequences. I’m eager to witness the stories and interactions that arise from these small additions.”

Baalphazu returns, accompanied by his loyal minions, the Pumpkinites, and stands as a formidable level 66 world boss. Join forces with Salvatore the Mad in the quest to vanquish the Pumpkinites and their leader to reap rich rewards and even more potential treasures. You can tackle this event as many times as you desire until it resets at 5:00 a.m., although there are limits on certain rewards. You can obtain up to five new armor pieces daily and up to three costumes daily. Additionally, Baalphazu will drop ichor.

Upon completing the Nightveil Hallow quest, you’ll be rewarded with:

  • 5 Nightveil Tokens.
  • 2 Random Nightveil Hallow weapon patterns.
  • Access to the Nightveil Sentinel section of the Event Shop.

Once you’ve achieved this, you’ll gain access to the event shop, where you can exchange ichor with Salvatore for a Nightveil Cauldron Cache. This cache contains numerous tokens, a random Night Vale Hollow weapon pattern, a coin bag, and more.

Make good use of your tokens at the event shop to acquire an array of new and returning rewards, which encompass a new emote, weapon patterns, gear skins, a Basket of Treats housing item, and various furniture items – Remember, New World Gold is important too.. If your abode was lacking a spooky touch, now is your golden opportunity to infuse it with Halloween charm.
