I had that theory too, but there are official servers with no ping limits, such as “Official server #1090 PvE No Ping - g-portal.com” and there are constant disconnects too.
I found a positive thing about those DCs , if I fight an animal and it dies during the DC …then I can take a selfie with it
Every cloud has a silver lining
Well, in the dev stream they have said that it should be fixed by the start of the new age (Age of War) which is due to release 22/06/2023 (day/month/year America!!!), if not before. Fingers crossed.
Video clip from Andy.
But they also followed that up with a “we hope” more or less. My guess is that they THINK it got fixed, but they need to see what the feedback is from players. If it’s still happening, that pretty much means they’re going back to the drawing board. Hopefully it’s fixed because this whole Age is based upon how successful they are at preventing disconnects related to purges and combat.
Saying to get the problem fixed by the release of the new chapter does not this mean that they already know what the core of the problem is? So why do they wait to get it fixed by the release and do not solve it earlier, for example NOW?
I’ll be honest with you… I just don’t know. I’m only going on what was said during the live stream. However, being one that often finds himself thinking too much about things, the current ‘Lost Connection’ issue didn’t start happening till after an update in mid February. They would have known what was to come in this new age with regards to combat changes and A.I. in general. Maybe they introduced some code that broke the game a little then, by accident, and have been working out how best to implement their overall goal for the new age since then, with a fix for their mistake as well as the new age?
This hasn’t been much issue on unofficial servers until now for me. Now i get DC’ed randomly and keep loosing thralls, pets and dying alot cause it happens alot during combats…
Funcom announced in the Live Stream on Monday that a fix in the Public Beta will be released to the Live game on June 22nd.
On the one hand I’m glad it’s resolved , on the other hand why wait when you already have a solution ?
it’s not exactly a small bug so why don’t you release a hotfix instead of annoying players for another month …
They could push out a fix fairly quickly for Steam. But consoles and Game Pass seem to be an entire other process where updates have to go through weeks of “certification”. Microsoft in particular seem to take their own sweet time.
In the past, they used to roll out updates faster on Steam, and a lot of players on console saw themselves as the red-headed stepchild in the basement. They weren’t wrong, but it was also something that wasn’t entirely under Funcom’s control. So, they’ve decided that PC gets to wait for consoles now.
The Public Beta servers are being used to test the fix.
I sure hope it gets fixed, I just got a d/c’d multiple times, and only way I could stop d/c is to direct connect. Please don’t get rid of direct connect. It help with problems like these.
Edit: Direct connects helps a little but the dc is still persistent.
Yea something changed, but I have found again a fix due to a poster on steam forum for conan. I now have Steam chat off, and firewall/antivirus. (of course just when playing) I can for the most part stay connected now on the private server. Havent tried the official lately. It does make sense though when they said they were working with Microsoft to fix it. all the ones I turned off are microsoft.
Yes exactly but had to add firwall and antivirus off as well, (make sure to turn it back on lol) anyways did you get that to work? There is no perm option to have steam chat off anymore. It auto turns it on.
Yeah these disconnects are getting ridiculous…During the purge i swear it happened 40 times…pulling a thrall and loosing them…trying to log back in and seeing i cant till i refresh the server list for my ping to be low enough,normally around 35-50 ping if not bugged up to 187 or more…its very random but usually during battle…Hell if the fix helps MOSTLY…roll that out plz. A.S.A.P…Might be usefull info,my Malewarebytes virus protection would keep popping up blocked site,multiple times in a row and differant ip addresses on each pop up,each pop up was conan exiles.exe, whenever i get disconnected and am waiting for the refresh of the servers to correct my ping…tried with it disabled and still disconnected.
How in the world has this been going on for over THREE months? How? Did everyone quit? Cause I have. Wont get a dime from me in Age of Might unless the game can be played. Bare minimum people.
You must never have played on Xbox. Three months of a game-breaking bug is nothing at all.
I just lost connection 8 times in a 20 minute period.
