I asked Chat GPT how to fix Conan based on player feedback and this is what it said:

Conan Exiles General Discussion Feedback
1

note: I dumped a bunch of forum posts into chat GPT from over the past few days complaining about the issues in the game. The real funny part here, is that this is all real common sense stuff and I’m facepalming reading this.

It seems like there are several key issues with Conan Exiles after the Age of War update, as highlighted by the community: To address these issues, a potential fix could involve:

  1. Rebalancing Stamina System: Reintroduce penalties for running out of stamina, and adjust perks to make various builds more viable.
  2. Reviving the Original Armor System: Re-implement the original armor system that required specific gear for different climates, adding strategic depth to gameplay.
  3. Stabilizing Thrall System: Reevaluate thrall mechanics to restore their significance in base defense and raiding.
  4. Revisiting Crafting Stations and Thralls: Make adjustments to ensure that using specific thralls at crafting stations remains meaningful.
  5. Stabilize Weapon Balancing: Avoid unnecessary changes to weapons and focus on fixing existing imbalances.
  6. Map Transfer Feature: Implement the ability to transfer between Siptah and Exiled Lands to unite the player base.
  7. Server Optimization: Prioritize server stability and fix lag issues for a smoother gameplay experience.
  8. Bug Fixes for Events: Address bugs preventing events from starting and ensure they run smoothly.
  9. Feature Completion and Utilization: Finish incomplete features like trebuchets and building sets, and ensure they function as intended.

It lost me at 2nd point. NO! Thanks, that system was horrible

AI is great as a tool to help aid with menial tasks and such, but as the OP shows, actual design needs to stay in the realm of actual people.

It’s not a bad list.

This should’ve been an update on it’s own, where developers optimize the netcode and provde better servers. It’s been laggy on official servers since 2019 to this day.

There are games that can host 300 players on the same server(rust). New World used 4 machines for a single server. Conan Exiles servers are laggy with just 15 players. Funcom can do better than this.

Agree with everything on the list apart from #6. Keep those dirty weapons and armor away from the exiled lands at all costs

This is something I never see enough people talk about imo game was much more in-depth when this system was in place I’d actually pay money for this to come back

Thank you for this. Im sure funcom will think about it because atm their source of ideas seems to be mentalo from “king of queens”!

Salting the engine with biased source material is a good way to get the results you want.

Yeah that is the problem with using chat gpt in this way, even though I largely agree with the answers the information fed would have lead them, what you would need is an outwardly facing API use of chat GPT that connects to the internet instead of its 2021 cutoff base, with neutral non leading questions in order to get a baseline of what it has aggregated and concluded.
