We have some more New World breaking news. Information on Amazon’s New World mmo name reservation been announced. You will have to get your name on the EU servers at 8am CEST and convert to your time zone. For east coast US that will be 2 am EDT! All characters made will lock the name to your account for a period of town you can delete it and claim it on the NA servers after when servers are closer to launch! Pre order bonus will be for each character you create and not locked to one character so feel free to reserve your name! Be sure to check out the reddit post and Play New World from twitter.

Mugsy official Amazon also said the same thing in comments below on the post and implied that guild names are global but not locked to account when deleted!
So entire world will joun EU servers on launch. They servers will be full and then next day none of those people will play on them. Awesome for EU…
They honestly need to switch this to a single (global) rollout. My experience with deleting and recreating toons during a release has been very problematic. Characters that do not get properly deleted then you're unable to recreate it in the new server, loot that gets lost or you're unable to claim (then weeks going back and forth with support,…). Amazon Games is setting themselves up for a lot additional (unnecessary) work with all the support tickets, and we ( players) are a demanding bunch, we want everything solved in 5 seconds. =)
There will be a rapier skin, it just isn’t pictured. It was confirmed by one of the streamers today (Smashley) that is part of the drops.
I can see why this has a bunch of people in a twist, but is it really that big a deal? Guilds will do what they need to to secure their name and they have been provided info on how to do so. Player names are always a crapshoot in MMOs.
You better stay up, otherwise i'm taking your name as you will be creating absolute bedlam and queues in Europe and that is just being a dick all for a name!!!
If Sethphir get's taken you can just call yourself Hethpher and get a helmet with horns!
hey do you need to use a vpn to change region in game from us to eu central?
By encouraging and telling people to go to the EU servers when they go up is basically helping and contributing to making the experience for people actually in the EU terrible. We are going to get absolutely screwed for 8 hours or so while the whole world tries to fit into a server capacity designed for just the EU and people actually in the EU, you'll get your names, and then f off back to your own region and have a much better launch experience because it will just be your region trying to get in
So queue on EU server starts will be even longer because rest of the world is saving character names? Oh damn it…
I’ve never been tied to one name for my toons. But I can see how content creators might want a specific name.
so how does this work if you dont want to play on the eu server? is your name locked to your account or will you be able to move the character to a different server?
Absolutely worst implementation of name reservation for any MMO launch ever. That said, I believe this is 100% intentional. They've already set servers up in a way that they can merge them for low populations after launch. One of the biggest issues with server merges is managing all of the character names and forcing players to have to rename if it already exists in the server they're being merged with. Same with guilds. Now, they can merge any time they want with no impact; just reset ownership of each town and fort and done.
Pls don't use the main comunity server to avoid useless traffic 😉
Don't assume that you need to be up at 2.00 am EST to get your name. It may be more like 3.00 am or later. With everyone getting names on the EU servers, could be very long queue times.
That’s dope, not like I have to be up at 5 am for work like an actual adult
The funny part is that for the guild names one player needs to create two characters on two different servers.
The first for his character name reservation, the second for the guild name.
Then he needs two play this character till he can create the guild.
When you then want to create the guild on the NA server he needs to logout his NA character with the first characters name and (now I'm guessing) log onto the second EU character where he needs to delete the guild. Then you should quickly try to create the guild and hope for the best, maybe prayer will help.
Not sure who would do it but be careful that while you might clog up the EU servers to reserve your name you will still need to delete the name, switch server and jump into the queue during which someone might get logged into your server and sit at charater creation just waiting to grab your name.
So you can choose to log into another regions server but it still doesn't guarantee you will be able to get your name on your actual main server of choice if someone really wants to grab your name.
Personally, I would want to make sure I am ready to get onto my preferred as soon as possible than run the risk of not only getting stuck logging into another regions server but also get caught in a big queue on the server you want.
Do you know if we get to create 2 characters like the beta's or is it strictly 1 character per account?
Yeah, this seems terrible. Why have a global names list?
"locked to an account for a short amount of time even after a character is deleted"
Got to wonder how much a "short amount of time" is. Hopefully a couple minutes max and not more than an hour. I'm not partial to names, so I sure wont be staying up at 2am before launch lmao. I'd like to wake up at 7:30am fresh with some toast and tea waiting for 8am to roll around. Best of luck to you who choose to reserve names!
If you want your name on east coast you need to mess up your sleep period before the first day of launch.
Sethphir, this doesn't answer. Can you actually PLAY the EU servers for a couple hours and still be able to retain your preorder bonus for your other region's primary character?
You forgot- You have to grind starting at 2am to unlock guilds and grab your guild name
F in the chat for EU
So what you're saying is that European servers are going to go down for hours while people try to reserve names and guild names that likely wouldn't have been taken anyway lol
F**K – Do you think people will just "make a char" to secure the name?? Of course not!
Europe will have a f**kercluster of cues. Thx Amazon!
How hard is it to reserve names in a seperate data base if you deceide to make a staggered server up-spinning to elevate the stress on the login servers??
Just bind account number and reserved name. Not hard to do for a 1 person develoing team let alone a multi-million dollar company!
This is such a silly issue to have in this day and age…..
This is going to absolutely ruin EU servers due to the 2500 character cap per server. How many thousand NA players are going to populate EU servers with ghost characters? It's absolutely woeful planning from AGS.
What a dumb idea… they are gonna make this launch one of the worst in MMO history for no reason
Should i keep my 5000 premium currencies for the upcoming P2W options or spend it right away on cosmetics?
