New World Open Beta Details
I’m installing the beta for new world as I’d like to give it a shot and see what it’s like (I know practically nothing about the game) The only mmo I’ve played is final fantasy 14 and I’ve been playing it for around a month now, I was just wondering what I should prepare for? What will it be like, is it better with friends etc. any insight as to what it will be like is appreciated :)
is it better with friends
I think this is pretty safe to assume for almost any video game
I’m preloading too. But I have the game on PC. It's great. Beta progress will be wiped on full release, so my advice is to go in blind and get stuck in over the weekend. That way everything will be new to you and you will enjoy yourself more.
It's very fun solo, but also with friends. So however you feel.
