But you know about learning from mistakes :slight_smile:
Now Funcom knows what’s wrong and maybe fixing is hard, but creating something new on an old map … This is just a dream :slight_smile:

When you have played 10,000 hours a new map is quite appealing.

Funcom has to many other things to worry about and to work on. I have been playing on the Savage Wilds map mod for a little over a week now, got tired of Siptah crashing all day, and there is a lot to do on that map, different dungeons and areas, the mod developer has done a great job. Not only is it a different map it also has Siptah creatures and stuff in it

We play on Siptah and nothing serious happens to us. It is known standard bugs as everywhere.
We were with the server on Savage Wilds and I really do not see anything there, for me the map weak with errors and empty.

Yes, this is a gorgeous map, larger than EL, superbly designed. and taking into account the numerous dungeons, there is twice as much content there.
The Island of Women and the Island of Men are also very good.

I dont think the landscaping on Savage Wilds is as good as the Exiled map but the dungeons and adventuring content are much better imo.

I have not visited any of the custom maps in like 2 years.
But while I enjoyed parts of them, I very disliked that some of them are really huge but at the same time empty, and the landscapes are full of things that look out of place.

They have a good design team when it comes to maps at Funcom. Both EL and IoS are amazing.
As for mods maybe it would be possible to steal a map from Witcher 3 or something :joy:

Yes it’s true EL is beautiful :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:, but after so many hours lost it got boring. If the Funcom team could expand the map by two biomes it would be the prettiest map under the sun :heart_eyes:

Yes, that’s the default setting (somewhat empty).

You can change the population in the Admin commands:

  1. Open the console with the insert or tilde key ~ to access the command line.
  2. Type in datacmd SWadmintoggles

On the Server Adjustments tab you will see Savage Wilds Population Adjustment and click Turn On

Hope that helps!

Do you like wolves and rocknoses? This is how you get wolves and rocknoses. :grin:

I really like Siptah! I think its really great but honestly i play only pvp and its the challenge makes it very fun. Lots of hidey holes and a great sized map. I also think that is a lot harder pvp wise than exiled lands due to how open it is. Resources everywhere kinda help localize a lot of the map which reduces travelling. This is especially useful in pvp because i don’t need to travel all over when I am trying to remain discreet.

PVP servers are currently x2. I did like the thralls taking a lot longer to convert but thats because their value increases significantly. Pre Sorcery there were a lot of issues as well. I think the game needs a lot of TLC but it is moving in a good direction. The biggest issue are hackers and cheaters.

No point asking for new graphics. Its an older game but still looks great. New graphics would only come on a sequel and honestly its unnecessary. I don’t really get whats stopping you from playing Siptah now, its a great change of pace.

Its not what the game needs, but it would bring many people back to check the game out again. Bugs in this game are as old as the product itself. A new map can attract more players, bring more money to the game and bring more investment to fix issues that arise or have persisted in the game. I love conan and a new map would be fun! At the end of the day that is why i play this game. For me, making a new map is a win for Funcom as it could generate more revenue. But I would say that we won’t see a new map till after Dune’s release.

Battleground with objective pvp maps yes please

Bring new people to see a game that is not optimal is really, really a nice strategy.

“there will never be a second time to make a good first impression”.

And even if it was good, new people not always means good things.
If so, there will never be given the importance it is to PLAYER RETENTION.

No matter how you look at it, it is a known fact in the industry that “rate of change” is a tricky subject that players barely never understand, they look at the game from the perspective of what they like. On the other hand, the people developing the game look at the game by other scope, and can see a lot of “needs” the game has that players never do.

I can tell you as any other person in the industry of development can tell you: If they dont stop adding things without making them stable, this will be the end of the game, not the lack of new things.

Not that Funcom needs any schooling on that:

They practically wrote the book on it.

Yea I suppose now that you put it into a pvp perspective I can see the appeal of it for a pvp purpose :wink: I do remember finding a neat cave at the start near the beach that i used to complete some of the journey steps. And I did build a small base using the cave near I believe it was the vault of the fiends? It had heaps of gold and black ice all over the place.

I definitely think that bug fixes and stability are super important and should be a priority. But you do forget that this game is incredible despite its issues. Why are you still here if that wasn’t the case. Whenever i convince someone to try the game, they play the game for over a hundred hours easy. This is a very impressive metric of retention. A new map would work very well, however it does take a lot of resources to do.

I totally agree that we need more maps in the game, I understand the frustrations in siptah and also the frustration with the bugs in this game but for the love of God I already have a lot of time in this game and I can’t stand the same map anymore… Always the same thing, I already have the entire map in my memory… this is quite annoying… It’s not our duty to worry about bugs, that’s the devs’ job and responsibility, the same goes for a well-designed map and make it fun. So yes, more maps please and let Funcom work and keep everything working in their time.
