New World: This is what awaits you in the biggest update yet

Players hope for a fresh start

What are the players saying? In addition to new content, Brimstone Sands will also try to fix the economy of the MMORPG. The economy look up reddit some as a problem, which is why they didn’t return to New World.

A similar sentiment can be seen regarding the Brimstone Sands release date. On Twitter, few players talk about anticipation or the contents of the update. Most express the hope that there should be a so-called “Fresh Start” with the update.

  • Zinocyl via Twitter: “Fresh Start? Everyone has glitched loot, the economy sucks. The only way I would come back to this game is if everyone cleared their inventory and reset the levels.”
  • TryMentality via Twitter: “Restart server please, me and my friends want to return.”
  • manpons via Twitter: “Please do the right thing and give us Fresh Start servers.”
What is a fresh start? A so-called “fresh start” is a new beginning. With a fresh start, players hope that everyone’s progress will be reset or at least there will be servers where everyone has to start over. Such action would remove glitched gear or similar and give the server’s economy a chance to re-develop.

Above all, a Fresh Start aims to influence the gaming experience of all players. For example, if one person voluntarily started over, it would not affect the economy.

A “Fresh Start” is comparable to a wipe in Escape from Tarkov

As many games as not in months: Although many New World players are hoping for a fresh start and are not returning due to the game’s current economic situation, the MMORPG is currently experiencing something of a second spring.

After strong player numbers for the release on September 28, 2021, the values ​​in New World fell for a long time, but for the MMORPG’s first birthday, New World has an upswing and more players than it has had since February 2022.

1 year after release, the MMORPG New World has not had as many players for months – why?
