Hi guys,
so…

As I said multiple times I loved all the new content that started to come together with Ages, but I hated all the changes - ruined stamina and combat (awkward, game crippling aiming without auto-aim etc).

All these changes robbed the game of any challenge and excitement.
It was no longer fun to just spar PvP with clan mates, it was no longer fun to go just raid a dungeon due to nerfs to PvE and awkward, cumbersome new combat.

And then you took the purge away from us and introduced that cucked tower defense thing instead (maybe it would have been cool if it wasn’t afraid to actually damage the base).

We stopped playing, I stopped coming to this forum… I kept the server for several months but eventually it was also switched off and I reused the hardware for other stuff.

I saw this today…

Guys, if you are willing to make a step back on these bad choices you made in the past, I beg you - don’t make this half-way… Just give us back the old pre-ages Stamina and give us back the old pre-ages combat system.

I know you have it all on your hard drives, for you it’s 10 minutes work to reverse all these disasters.

Also can you give back the old Purge to private server owners? For me and my players The Purge was a thing that defined Conan as a badass game (next to boobs).
Same story, it’s 10 minutes for you to bring back the ON/OFF toggle, and bring us back to the real Exiled Lands, the lands of danger, where Purge always comes.

No trolling this time - you guys tried to fix small problems with combat and tried to stop the crying about the purge but what you did was actually throwing the baby out with the bathwater…

Bring back the good old stuff, the combat where one had to use his brain a little bit, and the purge which was a huge atmosphere building factor.

The old stuff was not entirely perfect, but it was WAY better than what we have now.

Im sorry but they only listen to certain people, there’s basically a discord and they have a private (Hidden) suggestion channel where only a few have access to it, mostly content creators.

Id post a SS but its agaisnt tos, however simply go to the dev kit Discord and use certain version of discord that allows you to see certain things.

For private servers there is a purge mod that brings back the old purge. I’d be dubious it will ever return on officials but at this point who knows.

I did not know it was ready, I had a break from Conan.
Good work Xevyr, need to test that one.

So with the recent peak we had 15k players this month and 7,5k players use Xevyr’s purge mod.

GG Funcom on removing the purge from the game :upside_down_face:
As you can see at least 50% of current playerbase wants the purge back, and it would have been 70% a month ago.

Speaking of audible minorities and devs detached from community…

To be fair - the number of subscribers to a mod is not the same as the number of players currently using that mod - these are two different measurements. I’m still subscribed to every mod I have ever used, even if I stopped using them years ago - and have many times subscribed to a mod because I ‘liked the idea’ but never got round to using it. So it is very unlikely that all 7.3k subscribers to Xevyr’s purge mod are currently using it - many may not currently be playing at all.

I don’t really care either way which purge is in use, because I don’t really care about either version. Clearly there is significant interest in the old purge - but trying to pretend that comparing apples to oranges somehow ‘proves’ 50% of current players (or ‘70% last month’) want the old purge back is just not true. What these figures do prove is that there is significant interest in the old purge - and that is something that Funcom should take seriously. But trying to claim things about these figures that aren’t true just weakens your argument by making it appear hyperbolic.

Oh look math for people that don’t get math :+1:

Let me use some similar math and say that count is maybe 1/3 of the actual player base. 2/3s can’t use mods, so only 1/6th of the played base have checked the mod, not half.

This is actually a pretty good idea.

Funcom doesn’t have to bring back classic purge to the official servers. But they totally could put it back as an option for private servers. A switch in the Admin panel is all it would take.

Can’t think of any reason not to.

Yes, just like before, we had a switch in the admin panel, but it was removed together with the purge. They have everything ready, they just need to paste it back to the devkit and release the update on Steam. Minimum amount of work.
