Much better version than last time, really had a good time playing. I think most people liked the game, should have a pretty good launch if Thrones and Liberty doesn't knock it out the park.
@@jarheadjah3747 I think T&L is a totally different style of game though. Combat is still not new world. Thats what new world has over others. Hard to leave it.
Great video! I wasn't able to check out the beta myself, but love seeing all the interest from console players.
@@aquarister me too. They seemed really excited and I hope it goes good. I’m
That tab target lock on is gonna ruin pvp
On console the beta felt great after I turn on the option for high bandwidth which is on the very bottom of the main settings. I was on Xbox it felt at 80fps I was also on 4k then turn to quality when I notice no different it was great. Can’t wait to play this on my couch instead of my pc. Taking a more relax route
@@UpstartApollo9 if you ever stop by my stream you will see me playing like that sometimes. I have a recliner I pull up at times, and pull out the controller. I recently bought a new chair that fully lays down, but the sofa chair is so much more comfortable tho. Great way to farm/opr and run dungeons.
This game makes me love MMO's like I did ff11
@@SothasilX1 I’m glad to hear it. What weapons did you like playing with?
they bumped the damage for all range weapons by 20% (the bonus best ammo used to give) so you'll deal the same damage as before, you just don't have to craft ammo anymore.
that's a big plus. When using the bow ranking up, I kept thinking to myself... "this feels stronger than before". Found myself using it a lot.
so glad you mentioned the spawn rate because i thought i was crazy. it was SOOOOO much faster and weapon mastery lvls came so quick because of it
yeah that was awesome. I'm glad they thought about that.
Maybe they just did this because it was a beta, maybe when it's actually released they'll reduce it.
@@Himamoto-bl3yn I cant see it happening. back during the pc release that was 1 of the biggest complaints people had and it flows a lot smoother now but who knows
1) Love the jump
2) Not sure how I feel about the "Every contact is a cutscene"
3) The live game's bad chat system was somehow made worse. I know of an MMO out of development for 10 years with a chat system that rings around NW's
@@Huron2010A your number 2 is a great great point. Too many cut scenes, and I think I was blind to that just seeing it for the first time. You’re right.
Nw has booth chat bubbles and voice chat yo
The game wouldn't have died in the first place if AGS just focused on making more cotent instead of blue balling us just to annouce it was going to be coming to console. They were given 2 chanves already this is the 3rd. They dropped the ball so hard in angry earth after such a positive response, if they just kept the content coming and worked towards a console release we wouldnt be in this state where they are literally relaunching the game.
I think people who are mad at console players...yes they are misdirecting their anger but i can completely sympathize with them.
@@JGburneraccount I feel that 100%. Their PR and the Troll video they put out made a lot of my friends leave the game. Never seen a company do that before. 🤦♂️
Wow swimming !!
@@JordanCunningham-f2c I took a picture of me swimming in game then printed it out and put on my fridge. Best news in some time now.
@@BeeBopGaming us Beebopians really would expect no less. Really appreciate your dedication
With the ammo being removed, they've buffed the ranged weapon damage by the orichalcum % damage. This is a permanent buff
Well i spam the hell out of this beta , got 2 characters level 30 ( second one was just a speedrunning test 4h pretty sure i can go around 3h on launch ) and some things i noticed:
-The game feels way better i got 160fps on max setting on pc while on live servers i have 90-110
-Im pretty sure the mobs spawn has a proximity spawn rate , more players in that area the faster the spawn
-i got almost no desync at all ( 0% desync in pvp and lets say 5% desync in pve ) while again on live server is disgusting )
-cut scenes looks great even tho i love an option to disabled them not just skipping them
-target lock its actually better for mele then for range , if you play with that as a range player you never gonna deal the optimal damage.. specially in pvp
-Faction quest need a fix right now on beta i noticed only 1 player maybe 2 can pick up the mission at the same time
-Also faction quest the 3 daily bonuses can be tricked if you pick 2 of them finish them picking 3 new and completly them if you are fast enough you get the daily bonus for all 5 of them
-I think we need more oil, iron and hemp locations because a lot of them were in cutlass and first light in the past and those 2 are gone , also the big hemp farm from monarch was redone a while ago
-Faction steel tools are a big pro/con because sure its better for everyone but also gonna hit the market for people who craft them for money in early game
-Mount food its pretty hard actually to farm
- I think its a bit to much healing in the game half of the weapons has a way to heal so i guess we could run groups without healers but that gonna affect them dynamic of the roles a lot.
- The flair need a buff either more base damage or maybe some buffs on the spells because right now feels the worst weapon
- The spear/bow start its probably the best weapon combo start and solo leveling , the bows damage its amazing and the cc/rent from spear just lovely.
Those are some things i noticed in beta after i played it for almost 40h ( yea ik had nothing better to do )
I guess this will be an unpopular opinion since all the love for the game but here’s my thoughts as a pc player who’s never played new world prior to this beta. I found the weapon skill trees were VERY VERY VERY underwhelming at best. Maybe endgame gear is that much better. Not sure. No weapons or combos of anything i tried made me go ok this is awesome to use which is quite a bummer in my book. I also did not enjoy the fact the i have to play the entire story with a whole goddamn server full of people. Like they can’t be serious with this. Anywho…. I also felt that the game lacks a power fantasy as me being 4-5 levels higher than enemies still took quite a bit to kill. Again maybe higher tier gear has way better power fantasy. The game also really needs a toggle able gps system to guide you to the new obj. Nothing like running 2 miles to something only to figure out you can’t go that way because of mountains etc. Just guide me there. There’s plenty to keep me busy. Scavenger hunt to my next objective isn’t one of them. The game did look and run like a dream though. I was impressed with the voice acting and the detail in the playable world. There were times at different areas on the map where i would just stop and look around. Crafting seems cool, gathering seems good, i like how you can earn standing in your town and all. Overall good experience for a beta. But what appears to be a lack of power fantasy and having a server full of peeps during STORY is a huge turn off. We will see.
i agree weapons felt not strong i didn't resonate with anything maybe great axe felt fun but i couldn't find anything i want to main feel like it should just be like other mmo just 1 main weapon less complicated and fun more variety
they could add line of sight to mobs and the posibility to anbush them from behind like stealth games
that wouldn't really be needed in this game imo. It would be neat, but honestly you would use it for a short amount of time and then realize you can just destroy them anyway. :)
Don’t forget with regular new world some clothing don’t go well with others so part of your limbs are invisible with New World Aeternum Beta did not cross that issue. If you to see that issues I mention play new world new character put on boots they give you and legs are gone.
great review. Also, PC players should realize that ESO almost died due to its bad PC release and it was console players that saved it... Now that is one of the most content rich MMOs around. Give us a chance!
Man beebop, great freaking video!
This game seems to focus on the game world similar to how Guild Wars 2 does, and I loved it. Never played New World on PC, but gave it a good go on xbox and got to lv 27 during the beta.
That being said:
-I wished I could minimize chat so I never saw it
-Would love to see aquatic and flying mounts
-Players stealing the mats from an animal you killed is annoying AF.
Same lvl I played pc aswell to be honest I liked playing on Xbox more
You cant flag up for pvp in gw2 and the openworld runs on hundreds of dynamic and persistent events. There are instanced small and large scale Pvp i think that's the only similarity(correct me if i'm wrong).I 'm not expecting them to but If they put hundreds of dynamic ow events in nw i swear i am gonna go bananas. It's my favorite thing in gw2 but I find nw to have a more concise and visually cleaner combat experience.
3 years of beta and the 7th revamped MSQ.. gonna get it right eventually?
@@dvskid4273 lucky number 7!!!! Haha I think they have it right now, and now it’s TIME to focus on end game only ags!!! If they don’t it will be dead again before spring.
The UI, character movement and graphics were improved... but overall I feel that the game and DEVS/AGS won't change.... they will continue doing the same crap. but who knows.... I hope I'm wrong.
Lack of pvp content yea
@@GabrielGarcia-sy5nm you could be right, and 99% of the pc player base would agree with you. We just hope….. HOPE they put the same effort into the end game going forward as they have taking the game to console. If not, it will be completely dead by summer if that long.
Hope in one hand and poop in the other. Lets see which one fills up first....
console doesn't really have to worry about pc players because we get are own console servers so aint got to be forced up against pc users unless we want to by choice so they wont get to do shit to us anyways
very true. I wonder how many people will pick those servers over cross play. It will be interesting to see.
just play UO Outlands for a good MMORPG
I tried it as I'm an Mmorpg enthusiast... but I'm honest, the combat feels really weird to me, it feels like an Indie game. The UI is horrible too... I really think this game is gonna go back to where it was before... empty 😅 and that is sad because it's good to have variety.
Although, fair mention to the voice acting and scenes between MSQ, it was very good 👍
I will be definitely diving in Throne and Liberty and probably the same issues and more will arise.
@@Jonaslobo20 fair points. I hope you enjoy T&L.
It was fun..a lot of console players will be playing this.
@@TheLoops73 I hope so. I welcome them all. It’s been a game that’s entrained me for years.
They need to make M3 cross server, and they need to make it so u can queue for any activity like the sand worm, it’s almost impossible these last couple months to get a group for it without using a program to help like discord.
Yeah that lock on was nuts to see in PvP. I quit running bow bc it was too hard to hit thins, so can see the aim bot being good for dungeons
@@JordanCunningham-f2c I’ve tested it in dungeons and it’s really not good imo. It can be a good crutch for someone learning maybe, but the angles and circles you spin at times is more funny than helpful. Open world it has a great use for people ranking up I think.
i couldn't care less about cinematics or story, which is predictable and boring. however, the experience for a new player is quite good, and i think that's what they're aiming for. they improved some things and added new, BUT for the old player it took ages for them to actually add something we asked for years, like mounts
PVP is dead if the lock on feature stays in the game for everyone , no one will take it serious
SWIMMING????
Thats cursed
Where's my Covenant US East 1 peeps 🤜🤛
If you have to release ANOTHER BETA AFTER INITIAL RELEASE, your game is dogshit🤷♂️
Just play Guild Wars 2. Its fucking free btw😂
I love gw2. Played for 7yrs and counting. But i'm looking for a different combat experience now. Something simplier, methodical and less floaty like a soulslike mmo. Nw is the closest to that. I don't mind how many times they try to fix it as long as they get it to a good state cause i've been looking for something like this. And hearing the general sentiment now it's finally in a decent state.
console and controller are not interchangeable terms
@@TheShrekkoning very true. Still old ways of thinking a lot of times. I think pc I think m@k, and when I think console I think controller even tho I play with both on pc. Idk 🤷♂️
I'm on PC and console I may get it I don't know yet
@@waynemawston7806 you may know this already, but there won’t be cross progression unfortunately. So you would basically have to pick a platform. So whichever you will play on most…. I would go with that.
It was kinda boring, nothing new besides some SOL changes. The game runs great and finally got the much needed SOL fixes that it desperately needed but still the same boring underlying product overall.
@@MrWhiterunGuard yes they need to focus only on end game content from this point going forward or the game will be dead again by spring.
I tried the closed beta on console and looked blurry and lagged when spamming abilities. thankfully on open release there was a 4k option and solved all them issues. It runs about 60 most of the time but expect it to go down to the 30s low on a myrk run/war. I hope console players get the same starting experience and the game suceeds. ags may of made us wait but what were they supposed to do. its marketting and they cant just say where releasing a console port no updates for pc till the end of the year. I just hope the cycle doesn't continue and pc/console players don't experience the delays and buggy updates.
I had a awesome time on ps5 but I have no idea how to flag for pvp on control. I tried to check but the only thing that came up was pc keybinds
if you are in a town or on a fast travel point that is the option to flag for pvp at the bottom of the screen. I will go through some footage tonight and have a better answer for you soon.
@@BeeBopGaming thanks heaps dude. Is there a minimum level I need to be?
@@richardsgrowingpains6459think need level 20 or 25 something like that. then you press up on dpad and hold LT to turn on pvp while in a town hope this helps also LB and left stick is to crouch/prone. If PlayStation that would be up dpad and L2 for pvp and L1 and LS for crouch/prone🙂
@@xvii7718 thanks brother 🤘
Stopped playing this game due to only having only 3 skills available at a time feels like a snes games played with a controller with 2 buttons
Jokes on you i'm into that sht. I'm done with tab-target with 10-30 skills on a hotbar. I'll play black desert if i wanted action combat that has a ton of skills. Now I'm looking for something that has minimal inputs but more tactical like a soulslike but it's an mmo. This is the closest to that.
You technically have 6 skills at a time because you use two weapons in fairness, just a quick swap and you can use the other 3 skills from your back pocket
Nah thank you, tried it, it's still the same stupid thing
for those who have been here yes.. for those who never have played it.. it's a great experience. All we can do is hope they put the same effort into the end game for the next year to come.
if new world would have planned for naval content in early development then this game would have been huge and they for sure had the money to be able to do it. they chose boring safe ideas and nothing was good in this game
Enjoyed it. Know if our characters will carry over ?
@@lamontcranlc they won’t. You will start a brand new one October 15th. 😀
@@BeeBopGaming 😭
Character from Beta won't carry over, but those on live PC yes.
@@RendolpheGamernot on the crossplay servers ……
@@PunkJiuJitsu Crossplay server are considered Fresh server. So you need to create new character, but nobody lose any progress in legacy server like Maramma and Val
Beep beebop
I really want to like the game but the graphics are only 30fps,too many cutscenes,combat could be better but with that said I’m hoping they refine everything for launch day…
idk besides the aim assist no mmos has done better with combat, but end game loop needs more or better pvp modes, with also pve, more so pvp because this game is meh with pve
Eternals
was more than happy for console to have aim assist the lock on has made my decision on returning or not very easy its a no from me
Bug world. Classic.
Put the name of the game in your video title wtf
Recycle world
The new pvp zone is a total empty zone (same biome and monsters - nothing more), zerg faction will win always and it gives the feeling of zerg elite chest runs. We waited for +7 months for what really? ...
The PvP zone is free for all meaning you can attack your own faction and you can’t group up while in it. Zerg factions are possible but it’ll be hard.
@@The-Dark-Tower it may take the place of how the old Edengrove was where no faction can control it. If not, then it’s still a full PvP everyone for themselves zone. We will have to just wait and see how it goes. For myself though, not sure how much I will be down there because the pure sweat PvPers will destroy us average PvP players so not sure if it would be worth the time.
@@TouMoua-ih7no great point.
Isn’t the new pvp zone lvl 60 and cap was lvl 30……
@@PunkJiuJitsu yes, but what you saw in the video was me riding around down there. The skulls that top up on the enemy was to let me know they will one shot me because I was not a high enough rank. I also found the new 3 boss Raid that is coming out and a few other things for a video this week.
Dead game.
This type of game is ok but the beta was trash 😂😂😂😂😂😮😮
Bethesda you should take Amazon to the court, coz they stole your Idea from Morrowind. Game starts in a 🚢⚓
i just wish Bethesda would focus on making great games again. Another Fallout new vegas level game would be insane. I miss my power armor days. :/
