I’m on a little island peninsula and it’s supposed to have different biomes everywhere?
Talk about an immersion killer
My hope is that the tip of the island we’re on in game is the tip of a lost continent.
I’m more of a the glass is half full type of person.
This is the map of the island:
The area North of Shattered mountain and east of Great Cleave are next on the pipeline apparently.

People are acting like it's the second coming when it's really the 100th coming.
And you're acting like someone who doesn't get something that many of us do get.
You're no better critic nor is your opinion any more worthwhile than anyone else's around here. Certainly not qualified enough to be disparaging with statements like "people acting like it's the second coming
BTW... Great Cleave, the area just north of Brightwood. Is that the snowy biome you were looking for?
HUH?
Dude I didn't claim to be anything or more qualified or saying I know better..unsurprisingly that is how New World fans are treating anyone who doesn't think the game is the best MMO they have ever played.
I only gave my opinion, the fact that it's getting that type of response and is making me think there must be something there to what I'm saying.
Yes, I saw a snow area in-game already. I liked it. Already said so here.. Im confused about what that means though for you? My original post a page back or so listed A LOT of things and you guys stuck to the Biome part... It's actually hilarious.
The hilarious part is you describing those who actually enjoy this game dismissivley and collectively as "People are acting like it's the second coming..."
Maybe some links to those second coming posts will help lol.

People are getting things I say misconstrued as normal.
I simply gave my opinion lol. My issue wasn't just the biomes.
Again, I'm not bashing the game, I'm just telling it how I see it, nothing you can say will change what I experienced. There are a myriad of things i didn't like
Bland/forgettable story Grindy repetitive quests biomes and settlements look the same across the map combat is serviceable but not good character creation is subpar.
this is even if the game was bug-free.. those things need to be worked on
the game has good graphics. I like the world size
I hope it improves.. they have enough resources and time.
I don't know why yall are taking it so personally? It's like I insulted your wife or something. If my opinion doesn't matter so much... why get offended?
lol I don't care man it's not going to make a difference for me just thought Id share what I experienced because everyone was sharing and acting like it's perfect and when I played it, it was far from.
It was actually just more standard grind-park MMO stuff... made me want to play some Runescape because at least they have interesting quests!
I get it though, you are hungry for an MMORPG. Whatever floats your boat...

Thread after Thread with people saying how awesome and perfect this game is. You must be kidding me... talk about blinders man holy shit!
(On the other hand, there's been a little negativity over things that are very common to new games at release. Add on top that they may be adding PvE stuff, too.)
These posts just looks like every other new MMORPG, with all sorts of hyped up positivity and defense of said new game. MMO's are on the downturn due to the refusal to change them to make them better, and these folks don't want to see anyone act like they aren't doing otherwise.
The one thread we all knew you were talking about, and it's the only one where anyone on this site has acted like it's the "second coming". And that is only the OP. A batch of posters saying "I'm loving it too!" is not the same as your claim that everyone thinks it's perfect.
Feel free to post more threads. It shouldn't be hard, since this site is just brimming with people who think this is the best game ever with zero faults of any kind.
LMAO "the op is the only one who thought that" lmAOOOOOo
*reads the thread again* LMAO
So are you telling me I can't find it anywhere else on the website where people are acting like this is the best MMO they have ever played?
There are no other threads with this type of rhetoric? You're kidding, right?
Furthermore, why does it matter where I saw it on this website? I saw it. stop fishing for that moral victory captain obvious..
"oh, I knew you were talking about THAT thread"
right.. because the thread is on this website. DUHhh
The general Rhetoric around New World from this website is its the greatest MMO in the last 20 years. All I said was it isn't. I explained why.

You may very well find more posts like that. I certainly haven't read every NW thread on this site. But what I have read is far from everyone thinking it's perfect. There's a whole lot of people who seem to like it despite its faults.

Ah, see that's where you are wrong sir. I have already proved my point about the general census of this website. People here think it's incredible. I don't. Multiple threads and posts have people relaying this rhetoric. I said what I said.
I already proved my point, if I post another thread (which I am not going to do) it won't solve anything for you, you will just find something else to ask me to prove.. you will ask me how many people are on the site and prove to you how many of them actually commented on the thread.. it just turns into stupid semantic things, that frankly, I could care less for.
Everyone will back-peddle anyway in a few months, and act like they didn't say what they said. So move the goalpost all you want Sir, but you only want to turn this into a semantics thing because what I said about your precious game is valid.
You and I both know there are other threads with similar rhetoric.
If it matters to you that much that there are other threads, then find them yourself.
I'd rather post memes than do what you say random internet person number 14453987583373339939393848373 or whatever number it is.

my man.. all he has is semantics.. he wants to turn it into that so bad lol he would rather change what I said to fit his own narrative which I'm not even clear on tbh. It's like he just wants to fight. very weird.
it's crazy that some people can't take a little criticism or a different opinion about something they like. It's that us vs them thing... it's inconsequential and helps nothing.
people gotta stop acting like they are the owners when really they are just customers like everyone else.
All this over a different opinion!

There is a lot of anger on both sides. There is a strong group who take any criticism of the game personally, and will say all sorts of things about whoever makes said criticism. I'm not sure what their deal is, but it the way of the world today, I suppose.
Many cities in the game are identical. This is a fact. Maybe they are turned around a bit, but MourningDale is the same as Windsword. The internal layout of the city has everything in the same place. Brightwoods, Monarchs Bluff and First Light are all the same. These are two identical layouts used in different place, with only a very slight variation to account for the local scenery (Brightwoods is a little darker). There are a couple towns which are a bit different. Ebonscale looks very different, but it is also very small, out of the way and not many people go there. It feels like it was added on without much thought behind why it was being added on. Restless Shore is different and looks good. Reekswater is different, but doesn't look so good. To me it just feels like the people who made the game were lazy and did a lot of copy/paste. As noted a lot of the zones are basically the same as well, with the same monsters but at a different level.
Much of the terrain makes no sense to me. It's supposed to be a New World in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. But the middle of the island looks like a Van Helsing game, with everything being Transylvania-like. The mobs in the middle are terrible, just wolves, these ridiculous ghost men with coffins on their back who try to hit you with a shovel, ghost Witch Hunter types who try to stab you, and ghosts which can be either white or brown.... I didn't like any of these zones and was very disappointed that this makes up a huge chunk of the map in the "New World". Similarly, how the island goes from tropical to Arctic made no sense to me. I get it's a video game, but it's a video game without much of a working theme, just ideas stolen from here and there. There are Native American plants in the game (corn, squash, tomatoes, etc...), but there are no Native Americans and no Native culture. They don't even have tortillas as a cooking recipe option. Everything is very white European (basted chicken with corn).
The combat is all about the three buttons and the nine common mobs.... I found combat to be very disappointing. I understand that many people, myself included, got frustrated with 20 skills and macros, but there is a middle ground between 20 and 3..... 3 just feels console to me. If you want a game that did it right, look at Path of Exile, which lets you have as many skill gems as you want, but limits you to 6 active skills (which you can swap up anytime you want). That sort of system keeps macros out of the game, but still gives the gamer a lot of versatility. Three buttons and three skills just doesn't cut it for me.
I hated the dungeons in game. They are all full of weird pyrotechnics, bright lights, flashing lights, lasers.... lasers..... yes lasers..... They remind me of a smoky rave nightclub I used to frequent. It's very hard to be "skill based" when bright lights are flashing (most of the mobs glow too). And it's impossible to be skill based when you have so much lag to contend with (plus weird camera angles).
Anyway, I played 200+ hours of the game and uninstalled it. It's just not a game that has any appeal to me. I could go on with more and more reasons. The quests are boring and repetitive.... "Hey go kill Red Zombie Lumber Jacks...." you do the quest and come back and the next quest is to go back to the exact same area and kill more "Zombie Lumber Jacks." The PVP quests are a total joke. I ran one for 3 hours to get faction gear. During that time I did nothing but kill alligators, stand on a hill for 30 seconds and deliver a package to a blue orb (cheap animation). I did this over and over, and while I was flagged for PVP, I never even saw another player, much less fight anyone. It was just "kill alligators"..... And when I got my upgraded gear, it had the exact same graphics as my old gear. I looked 100 percent the same; cheap.
Between the boring quests, the rave dungeons and the logging/mining, I made the decision to uninstall the game. If you tell anyone in game chat that you don't like something, they will tell you to quit playing. I took their advice and quit.

Sure, make it about me to distract away from the silly claim about "threads and threads" of people saying the game is perfect. Focus on my use of "everyone" versus "people" to try and invalidate my entire point.
My point still stands. There aren't a bunch of threads stating how perfect the game is, there is literally one. You tried to invent threads and threads to win your little spat with @Iselin. I'm sure they're still patiently waiting for those links to all the second coming posts.
The general "census" (I think you mean consensus) that I get is most people seem to like the game, though they aren't sure how long the fun will last. That's a far cry from believing the game is perfect.
LOL, so your point this whole time was to play semantics but not really play semantics because I never even said what you are saying I said? LMAO!
Here's the thing ( you know that saying right?)
You know damn well my point was/is "People are saying NW is such an amazing MMO" you know that's the point but you rather make it about semantics.. that is annoying to me but not surprising because I've seen this so much over the years here. Person A likes something a lot..Person B says that thing has heavy flaws.. person A gets upset and tries to attack what Person B said. Semantics follow.
Now I know for sure you just wanted a fight. It wasn't even subtle.
Regardless of how many threads it was (again it's more than 1) you know yourself that people around here have said exactly what I'm saying I saw.
The whole thing "you said thread after thread" is silly and again proves to me how immature some older people can be. I always hear about this new generation this and that but it's really the old folks who are the worse to deal with.
Look at yourself! Even in the face of reason, you still spew your semantics at me... "I think you mean consensus" as if you had no clue what I meant by census. It's inconsequential and Pretentious. I used the word I meant to use, exactly how I meant to use it. BUT SEMANTICS amirite? oh, wait... I mean, Am I correct? Or is it Am I right? Nah, I like amirite. Flows better off the tongue.
Since you want to play semantics, ok, you do realize there is a difference between "People" and "Everyone" right? Riiight..
YOU are the person that wanted to go down this semantics route.
You asked me to post a thread example, and I did. Then when I did that you asked me to show MORE threads. The first one wasn't good enough because it proved what I was saying. You want me to show more threads.
Yeah, I'm not doing that. you can look it up yourself.
Furthermore, sir, I didn't need to invent a damn thing, I already told you how to see the same information I saw, I cannot help you further than that. You refuse to enlighten yourself, it's your problem, but that's your right.
It's also my right to ignore your childishness.

That's already 18, the DOUBLE, and I've most likely forgotten some, like the corrupted animals which are quite different from the normal kind, and don't behave the same way.
The problem I have with the game critics is not that the poster didn't like the game. What I don't like is using lies and exaggerations to bash the game.
There's a quite big variety of landscape in this game, and the mob variety is also greater than any of those negative people want to make you believe there is. And I have REAL 178 hours in the game.
LOl 18 is also incredibly lacking and pathetic ......... just sayin
And Turkeys are now a mob ... Woot !
I see you edited after realizing how pathetic 18 actually is , Now the smart kids realize that resource pinatas .. Are not Mobs .. The other kids .. count them...
Except nobody is saying "all cities look the same,"
I personally said there needs to be more biomes and I also pointed out a few cities that are exactly the same. That similar city thing was true. Another player, @wihtgar , said many cities in the game are identical.
You aren't proving anything with this passive-aggressive petty shit. I addressed you directly like a man. Talk to me directly not indirectly. I don't respect indirect comments.
Stop acting like a 16-year-old fanboy, you are too old for this.

Out of all the paragraphs the only thing people can attack really is that there are more animal mobs than I suggested. While that's true, it's also true that; One, no one really cares about the rabbits and such which run around passively; Two, 99.95 percent of the time in game is still spent killing the 9 mobs. You may see a bear one day, but unless you are one of the people who farm bears (which actually happens, some people stand around for hours killing the same 3-4 bears which spawn, because there is nothing else to do), 99..95 percent of the time most people are killing the 3 Transylvania mobs, killing the blue skeletons, or killing the red and blue zombies. That's about it. I dunno, if its your thing cool. Stand in an area and kill boars all day (some people do that). I am glad you have your space, but it isn't for me. I don't want to be in that space.

The fact there counting resource pinata as mobs should tell you all you need to know ..
Now the smart kids realize that resource pinatas .. Are not Mobs .. The other kids .. count them...
That's already 18, the DOUBLE, and I've most likely forgotten some, like the corrupted animals which are quite different from the normal kind, and don't behave the same way.
The problem I have with the game critics is not that the poster didn't like the game. What I don't like is using lies and exaggerations to bash the game.
There's a quite big variety of landscape in this game, and the mob variety is also greater than any of those negative people want to make you believe there is. And I have REAL 178 hours in the game.

Now your not being fair.
I know WoW had about 18 colours of the same damn wolf and dumb as a rock AI.
Myself personally, I like quality over quantity. The AI in NW has surprised me, but it hasn’t impressed me. But that’s a lot more than I can say about pretty much any other mmorpg.

So let me get this straight. Every animal/monster that I kill, if I get some kind of resource from it it’s a resource piñata? And not a mob?

do I read you correctly?
Yep, all those mobs you have to hunt and kill for board missions, not mobs, apparently.

That will be good news , it such a tiny game world ..Hope they get that soon
I simply gave my opinion lol. My issue wasn't just the biomes.
Again, I'm not bashing the game, I'm just telling it how I see it, nothing you can say will change what I experienced. There are a myriad of things i didn't like
Bland/forgettable story
Grindy repetitive quests
biomes and settlements look the same across the map
combat is serviceable but not good
character creation is subpar.
this is even if the game was bug-free.. those things need to be worked on
the game has good graphics.
I like the world size
I hope it improves.. they have enough resources and time.
I don't know why yall are taking it so personally? It's like I insulted your wife or something. If my opinion doesn't matter so much... why get offended?
lol I don't care man it's not going to make a difference for me just thought Id share what I experienced because everyone was sharing and acting like it's perfect and when I played it, it was far from.
It was actually just more standard grind-park MMO stuff... made me want to play some Runescape because at least they have interesting quests!
I get it though, you are hungry for an MMORPG. Whatever floats your boat...

(On the other hand, there's been a little negativity over things that are very common to new games at release.
Add on top that they may be adding PvE stuff, too.)
These posts just looks like every other new MMORPG, with all sorts of hyped up positivity and defense of said new game.
MMO's are on the downturn due to the refusal to change them to make them better, and these folks don't want to see anyone act like they aren't doing otherwise.

*reads the thread again* LMAO
So are you telling me I can't find it anywhere else on the website where people are acting like this is the best MMO they have ever played?
There are no other threads with this type of rhetoric? You're kidding, right?
Furthermore, why does it matter where I saw it on this website? I saw it. stop fishing for that moral victory captain obvious..
"oh, I knew you were talking about THAT thread"
right.. because the thread is on this website. DUHhh
The general Rhetoric around New World from this website is its the greatest MMO in the last 20 years. All I said was it isn't. I explained why.
go argue with your wall sir lol

Here's what he said, just up-thread a short ways:
"Thread after Thread with people saying how awesome and perfect this game is. You must be kidding me... talk about blinders man holy shit! "
I've read fewer threads, most likely, but it seems that way to me too.
There's nothing new in this for new MMOs, as I said.
Once upon a time....
I already proved my point, if I post another thread (which I am not going to do) it won't solve anything for you, you will just find something else to ask me to prove.. you will ask me how many people are on the site and prove to you how many of them actually commented on the thread.. it just turns into stupid semantic things, that frankly, I could care less for.
Everyone will back-peddle anyway in a few months, and act like they didn't say what they said. So move the goalpost all you want Sir, but you only want to turn this into a semantics thing because what I said about your precious game is valid.
You and I both know there are other threads with similar rhetoric.
If it matters to you that much that there are other threads, then find them yourself.
I'd rather post memes than do what you say random internet person number 14453987583373339939393848373 or whatever number it is.

it's crazy that some people can't take a little criticism or a different opinion about something they like. It's that us vs them thing... it's inconsequential and helps nothing.
people gotta stop acting like they are the owners when really they are just customers like everyone else.
All this over a different opinion!

LOL, so your point this whole time was to play semantics but not really play semantics because I never even said what you are saying I said? LMAO!
Here's the thing ( you know that saying right?)
You know damn well my point was/is "People are saying NW is such an amazing MMO" you know that's the point but you rather make it about semantics.. that is annoying to me but not surprising because I've seen this so much over the years here. Person A likes something a lot..Person B says that thing has heavy flaws.. person A gets upset and tries to attack what Person B said. Semantics follow.
Now I know for sure you just wanted a fight. It wasn't even subtle.
Regardless of how many threads it was (again it's more than 1) you know yourself that people around here have said exactly what I'm saying I saw.
The whole thing "you said thread after thread" is silly and again proves to me how immature some older people can be. I always hear about this new generation this and that but it's really the old folks who are the worse to deal with.
Look at yourself! Even in the face of reason, you still spew your semantics at me... "I think you mean consensus" as if you had no clue what I meant by census. It's inconsequential and Pretentious. I used the word I meant to use, exactly how I meant to use it. BUT SEMANTICS amirite? oh, wait... I mean, Am I correct? Or is it Am I right? Nah, I like amirite. Flows better off the tongue.
Since you want to play semantics, ok, you do realize there is a difference between "People" and "Everyone" right? Riiight..
YOU are the person that wanted to go down this semantics route.
You asked me to post a thread example, and I did. Then when I did that you asked me to show MORE threads. The first one wasn't good enough because it proved what I was saying. You want me to show more threads.
Yeah, I'm not doing that. you can look it up yourself.
Furthermore, sir, I didn't need to invent a damn thing, I already told you how to see the same information I saw, I cannot help you further than that. You refuse to enlighten yourself, it's your problem, but that's your right.
It's also my right to ignore your childishness.
