Christmas wish list

Yes an christmas wish list. Feel free to add to it. Please refrain from “fix the game”, be specific :slightly_smiling_face:

Trying to get some things going before the server restart. Going through benches moving mats up the production line. Smithy, 6 partial stacks of star metal. Armorer 3 partial stacks of star metal.

I’d love a restack or consolidated stacks button. Maybe at least have benches start with the smallest stack not a fresh one every time. or
:astonished_face: Both
:tada:

Next, only have benches running when they are busy. If there is no smelting going on shut the furnace off. If there is a thrall there and they ever fix wandering thralls, this would be the time to go eat, sleep, take a bath; giggidy. Black smith would go in to lounge mode, lean on the anvil or something.

Bench snapping. I lost the ability to slow mow to set benches so some sort of bench snapping; opt in, would be nice. I get so aggravated trying to get benches to line up to wall, corners, other benches.

This would also be nice if you want to use those loot pieces to spruce up your benches. Just snap to. Bellows and such; animations for them would be nice as well.

Ya, I know, big asks of funcom, hence Christmas wish list :santa_claus:

  • Mirroring of placeable objects/workbenches:
    It would be fantastic to have an option to easily mirror placeable objects or at least workbenches. This would significantly expand design possibilities, and I imagine the implementation effort for this would be manageable.

  • Glass doors for all door and gate types:
    I would really like to see glass doors for all existing door and gate types. This would open up new architectural freedoms and significantly enhance the appearance of bases.

  • More 2x2 gates:
    Along with that, I would also like to see more 2x2 gates, ideally with the option for glass doors!

For our Black Lotus Bazaar:

Stained glass windows for Storm Glass, Nemedian, and Argossean tilesets and writable signs, e.g. dark steel & white marble signs, that don’t just look like a (barely) unprocessed piece of wood.

Start adding content based on the Dark Horse Conan comics. There are so many stories and characters just sitting there. I’ve collected almost all of them and I’m reading the new Titan ones. CE has always been more of an environmental storytelling, so adding loot that referenced Belit or other characters would be awesome. They could even have NEW events that pulled from existing conan lore that rewarded loot from outside the exiled lands.

Hey, don’t cheat :squinting_face_with_tongue:.

I have different wishes for Christmas.

  1. Now that Dune brought money to their pockets again (700.000 copies so far) please give a raise to our devs.
  2. Hire more devs for CE.
  3. Wishes for 2 million copies of Dune while consoles get in the market and Funcom be a greater company and more serious to the player needs.

… would be great.

My three ideas:

  • Closing the gaps in the Exiled Lands’ story, e. g. adding Telith’s Ghost, adding where Rhazma found the Mask of the Witch-Queen, flesh out Xalthar’s story
  • Adding new dungeons, e. g. a dream or time-travel story that shows the Giant Kings realm before the fall
  • fixing animal followers, i. e. finishing the revamp announced so many months ago
  • adding the missing corrupted attributes

Okay, that was four points, not three, but two are just things that should have been finished years ago.

I actually like this idea and it could be implemented into the game even without bringing back the wandering.

As for me, currently, since I really do wanna see them “fix the game,” I’d be content with implementing ALL Siptah recipes and frequent eldarium drops (as well as ALL EL recipes on Siptah). Also, I’d like to see an eventual path towards being able to implement moving between Siptah and EL. I’ve seen some suggestions about linking two servers of the player’s choice. I’d like to link both of my main official servers. Server transfers really rejuvenated BOTH maps, so I firmly believe that it would fix the lack of population on Siptah. As things stand, most prefer EL over Siptah, but having the ability to go between the two would help both.

Here is a good example of the the issue, I also have to deal with another dead composter.
Easy fix so not a real issue.

FYI: Seems sometimes when you put a chest on a composter it kills it.

Wish list?

Older undead skins brought back as options to layover thralls, pets, and or characters

Server transfers

A bazaar version of the royal armor and atlantean sword

Both sacred hunt and witch hunt permanently active at the same time

Complete the sorcery work (all attributes have corrupted perks), more spells

Complete pet rework

Progressive decay timers to which the more foundations you have, the less time you have on decay timers so you can get a small storage shed for a month but a 20k foundation build is like 3 days.

Being able to use mats in “snapped” chests.
I mean if we are snapping benches to foundations, ceiling tiles, why not snap chest to benches?

This would be real nice especially on the dying bench.

  • access to bazaar items even offline
  • 2x2 gates as someone mentioned here would be nice
  • more realistic looking medieval armor
  • plate or chain mail with a tabard showing the clan symbol
  • a return to the DLC system
  • more love for fighting from horseback , CE is one of the few games where this worked but over time the game has been modified without taking this aspect into account

  • wishing AI pathing and response was more intuitive like Dune Awakening has. (see, Funcom CAN do AI pathing right) - enemies will maneuver and use terrain for cover (not getting stuck)
  • wishing for Conan 2.0 (built for long life and multiple expansions)
  • wishing for a good alternative map (not a pvp designed Siptah map, but a pve map to explore)
  • wishing for environmental effects (like sandstorms that will damage bases, quicksands, mudslides, flooding, lightning strikes, blizzards, and temperature effects where too much heat drains your water fast or too much cold drains your stamina fast)
  • wishing for DLCs instead of a Bazaar
  • wishing for more ‘special’ followers and their quests
  • wishing for two x two gates and two x one double doors
  • wishing for the option to allow the old purge to return with npcs that will siege a base (trebs, etc)
  • wishing for enemies in the water (sharks in salt water, gators that swim after players, etc)
  • wishing for enemies that can climb after players (spiders pursue, etc)
  • wishing sea water was not drinkable
  • wishing the factions (races or religions) had a reputation system (ally with one faction makes you an enemy of another, etc) – affects trade and even have enemy factions hunt the player (npc ambush system); perhaps even divide the map into faction territory zones
  • still wishing for fruit trees like date palms and citrus

Asside from bug fixing and server/client stability, I selfishly wish that there would be fence foundations and wedge foundations added to those building sets that do not have those - especially Lost Dungeon and Zingaran Vineyard ones.

Other then that, I really would love snowy roofs, or sod/turf roofs, palm frond roofs, wattle & daub walls and wattle fences etc.

Containers that actually are storage aka barrels etc. that store liquids for example. Add sacks too.

Farm animals (chickens, goats, sheep, ox/cow etc.); deco: stuff hanging from rafters (sausages, meats, herbs, bags etc.); coiled rope, menhirs/standing stones, a nice big round set symbol (relief - two snakes, sun and moon);

More arms and armor directly from or inspired by the Conan movies.

Oh sheathing 1h weapons on hip would also be nice.

Oh yeah and more stuff for Picts, Kushites, and other cultures. Pict NPCs/Thralls would also be nice, they seem to be totally missing thus far.

A little bit more magic perhaps for Priests or Witchcraft (healing, buffing, de-buffing etc.)

and one of my biggest and most futile wishes would probably changing season textures (foliage etc.) or a way to simply change a thrall’s appearance or building out unused parts of the exiled map (yeah, yeah - foolishly discussed in many a thread, but one can dream).

I would appreciate it if there was a final “roof element” with a 45-degree angle for the Stygian pyramid tileset at Black Lotus Bazaar. So far, you still have to resort to an alternative from another tileset (see my screenshot).

The only Pyramid Top that is currently available has a too steep angle and only harmonizes with Pyramid Slant Foundation when it ends at the top.

A third and last wish of mine and I know, this wish sounds utopian, but it would perhaps offer a very good conclusion for Conan Exiles:

The implementation of a third and final - time-bound? - event. We have the Khitan bounty hunters who get sorcerers for our Stygian bodyless head-wizard. We have the Sacred Hunt around Jhebbal Sag in connection with his cult based in the Exiled Lands. It would be cool if there was a (temporary) camp of Aquilonian or Nemedian adventurers and merchants as a kind of third faction, who alternately give players alternating orders/contracts like quests such as deliver the head of a Red Dragon, deliver five Fragments of Power, deliver ten scales of Dagon’s brood, etc. In other words, every eight hours there is a “new order/contract” - similar to the changing offer at Master Huang with his golem parts. It would be a way to exchange relatively rare items in the game for new equipment and recipes, which you can only get in this new camp of merchants and adventures. This camp would also be a very good central point of contact on every server where players could meet on PvE servers or expect corresponding conflict potential on PvP servers.

I realize that this would ultimately be just another form of old school video game occupational therapy. But at the same time it would be a good solution to keep the loyal player base engaged. This is a relatively easy way to bring new content into the game, but at the same time it invites you to go regular online, again and again, to see what task/quest/contract is currently being offered.

But, well, that won’t happen next Christmas … Maybe more Christmas 2026? :sweat_smile:

EDIT: :ok_hand: Oh yes, and of course it would fit wonderfully with the theme of the current Age of Heroes. :harold:

As said above by @DeaconElie Make sure that crafts are stretched when the player does not use them, even if a craftsman and above.

  • Make the artificial lights more realistic and credible, projection of shadows, rays of light that pass through the windows and windows, multi shadow celon the number of light sources and their direction, and finally stop the light that passes through the cerelates and walls (a simple torch in a piece of light up to 3 and the outside)

Keep the beta servers uptodate.
Things I’d like to test on the public servers, but not live.
And I’m fairly sure being on the G portal servers does make a difference.

I’m gonna assume you’re on PC, because as cool as that would be, that’s unlikely to happen with the support of consoles… especially PS4 and XBone. On my PS5, due to poor optimization, the game still runs terrible if there’s too much stuff. Dynamic lighting like that will likely make it worse, unfortunately.
