Meh and cringe Age of Heroes

Conan Exiles General Discussion Feedback
1

Hello and thanks for reading.

1-I found the name of this age very bad change it please.
2-You save the live with the ceiling.
3-I don’t play sims. I play Conan, a pvp/survival game. Actually i think you should put a post-it on all the desk about it.
4-Rp players don’t need content because it’s rp… We already do without your help. Everything is already doable in our head. So putting all the money and your effort to please us is just a bad idea for players because there is FUN things to do. These things are not cool or fun or useful.
5-Insulting pvp players freely. I say this for all the ppl putting all pvp players and the pvp in the same bag: The trash. These ppl need to be calmed down. Do something about them on live and in this forum. These ppl are hating us. (Yes i’m a rp and pvp player shock?)
6-Siptah is so good. I’ll play again soon rp underwater with my friends on this map. (Atlantean rp) What about an Age of Cloudy water? Age of Kung Fu? Age of Amazon? These age for me are better choice then Age of War and Age of Heroes… We need love for the savage girl. We are waiting more sorcery like morphing. Some funny martial art old school movie combat style. And more underwater life. I want to fish with my javelin underwater since the beginning of the game… These things are fun. Not watching my slave bot running everywhere… I prefer go watch youtube, nobody will watch them, they are decoration anyway! So who got this idea and why? Maybe i miss something… Just explain me than. There is much cool’n’fun things to do and you choose to put effort and money in boring and useless things…
7-Calm down on the shop price… 50euros by month for Conan Exiles almost… What are you thinking about?
I think that’s it for this time.

Thanks for ruining pvp and purge system. The old siptah sky invasion. <3

It is very hard to sell the idea that RP players who play a sandbox game do so because they want to make their own stories and adding story rails as in theme park games like WoW or FFXIV has a high probability of first, not being good, second, being a forgetful feature.

You are knocking on deaf ears’ doors on that one. It has been a long time people are adding stuff for “RP” that has no RP value.

On the mechanic side, as I said in another topic, I doubt any shortcoming of Conan Exiles is because the guys there dont know how to do it:

Given the history and how Conan Exiles fit in the Funcom timeline, we would think they had learned a lesson, but it seems not.

It is not the engine, it is not the team, it is not the fact that the game would be “abandoned”. It is a track record I have also pointed out in another topic:

I don’t know what you or anyone else is talking about this being aimed at RP server. Rp servers will appreciate the additional building pieces, that is true. But most of the patch? Rp servers are plagued by performance issues, they will end up either disabling or trying to disable most of these thrall stuff as it will decimate already poor performance.

This age is strictly for solo play, maybe PvE though I think that too will struggle with the load. It’s bad for both RP and PvP.

The tavern/tavern keeper for example? Banned/blocked on most rp servers.

But Conan is not PVP, it has a PVP mode but it’s not a PVP game.
It’s a very lite survival game, used to be better now is more of an after thought. Seriously, unlike actual survival gamed, food and water are an after thought at best.

You don’t actually play RP do you? Conan is more of an RP game then a survival game.

My experience PVP players are the most antagonistic toxic players on the forum.

Oh, well that explains a lot.

If they removed the mode I wouldn’t miss it.

The old purge system was pure unadulterated crap.

Is why I went for a refund.

That is what most people don’t get. What funcom is doing with Conan is funcom SOP for their games. Dune will be no different. But try to get that through to the Dune fanatics that have about worked themselves up in to apoplexy. When the game finally drops peoples heads are going to explode

Thing is we see funcom do something we hate and try to explain it by blaming what ever part of the player base you hate most.
I blame PVPers for the ToC.

The new live village; funcom read your own ToC, is neither PVP or PVE, nor RP or solo. It’s just another aspect of the game. Some thing; in my opinion, they added because someone played soulmask.

Is it? On all of them? Or just the one you play on or some friend of yours plays on.

Now I don’t RP, bit beyond me. I almost envy people that can stay in character. I don’t know how to be anyone but me.

As in, my neighbor is lucky I don’t report him for his garage being well with in my property easement. Sound like me?

Is it? On all of them? Or just the one you play on or some friend of yours plays on.

All the “big/biggish” ones, as performance is a major issue on the vast majority of them. So yes, far as most rp servers(and even more so, most rp players) are concerned a lot of the features added in AoW and now in AoH are a nuisance for admins to remove via mods or mitigate with rules.

If you don’t believe me and are feeling bored, try and pick a random one of your choice and check their rules(on their discord) how many thralls are allowed(not to be confused with horses). It’s usually not much, one I am currently on is max 2 thralls for clans ranging up to ten people. Even as they are now their impact on performance isn’t appreciated.

Oh and don’t envy us, we’re pretty cringe to be honest :grimacing:

Mods stacked like coins on your elbow for a trick are why I don’t do privates.
And I’m sure having 60 stacked mods that adds more to the game then all the DLCs combined has nothing to do with server performance.

Seriously if the vanilla game can run on Gportal servers with thralls stacked like cord wood, maybe the issue isn’t the thralls.

8

I’m just telling you how things are on RP, you can check it yourself if you want.

But basically large player counts which the game is poorly optimized for, a long list of mods, massive hugely decorated builds all lead to pretty much all RP servers lagging significantly.

Having 1 server fps isn’t a rarity, and AI in general doesn’t function well in such conditions. This change is bad for rp servers, if you don’t believe me can go inspect their rules by yourself.

I don’t think you nor i are wrong. But the reaction about Age of heroes from Rp players most of them they are happy that’s make me say that… I don’t say it’s not a bad idea atleast it’s better than the new purge who i hope they’ll throw it away in some chapters. A friend of mine saw the bar the other day and he say oh nice! nice idea 30sec after he wanted to delete all the thralls. I took the barman off of the bench. And it was not because performance issue… Myself i like doing big building in my solo and having life in it sound like a good idea i’m not against it. But these things i considere it like a little plus. It could make the game a little more cool but i’ll never launch a game for these kind of things. Funcom need to give content for active players not passif players. (I mean gameplay side i don’t talk about ppl who play or not at conan) I’m waiting new things to play with since more then 2 years and they give us nothing… DeaconElie you wrong Conan Exiles is a pvp/survival game. The game was made with mechanics done for the pvp. Bubble, avatar, trébuchet, maproom, jar, arrows, orb. Even the map was thinking around pvp and survival. Crafting receap and more. Do things for pvp and survival players others community will benefite it too. On the contrary the inverse is not true i think.

10

No, no. I disagree, you are very much wrong.
Go ahead and check the most populated rp servers, tell me what their thrall allowance is.
Rp servers are either unhappy about this or ambivalent as some just ban thralls completely.

The extra building pieces are admittedly appreciated, but that’s about it.

I can understand people scrambling to think who this age is good for, but look elsewhere. Solo players are likely to appreciate it, I am not sure how PvE servers will handle the performance. That’s about it though.

No. Deacon is not wrong. Conan Exiles is a game that is sold with multiple game modes - PVP is one of those game modes, but PVE, PVE-C and Singleplayer all have the same right to exist.

Yes. As well as mechanics for Singleplayer, for PVE, for PVE-C. No individual game mode has rights above any other.

This just isn’t true. The map was made with all game modes in mind, that’s the whole point. If it was made around PVP, the game would be a Battle Royale (they make more money).

No, this has been repeatedly proved false throughout Conan Exile’s development. Every time development has been focused on PVP, the other game modes have had features and gameplay loops stripped away. Sometimes these losses were necessary for the continued health of PVP, but, as in the cases of many weapon nerfs for example, often the changes were not necessary they were just knee-jerk reactions to PVPers demanding that all weapons be nerfed.

Then you are speaking in direct opposition to statements from many other PVPers, who have often stated that ‘90% of PVP is the same PVE content that the rest of us do’. If that is true (and it seems likely that it is) additions to PVE directly add to and benefit PVP to the same degree. Meanwhile changes made for PVP have often proved negative for PVE in the past.

Let’s be clear - PVP is not in a great state right now. The hacker issue is a huge problem, and player numbers seem to be dwindling. It certainly seems possible that this new Living Settlement system may further negatively impact PVP as it is likely to make it far harder to protect important crafters. And these things are a problem - PVP is one of the game modes the game was sold with and therefore deserves to be supported and is in particular need of that support right now. But that does not mean that the game ‘is a PVP game’, nor does it mean that development should focus solely on PVP.

From experience it was 2 or 3 thralls pet include or not with one mount apart. Yeah i know. It can be 5 by players depend on the numbers size of the server if i remember. Rules can change depend of the size and the numbers of ppl in the clan and his lore. And store t4 armorer etc when you don’t use a bench.

I agree with you it’s not for rp players.

13

Yes… PVP and SURVIVAL…

Yes… PVP and SURVIVAL…

Singleplayer, pve and pve-c are all “SURVIVAL” So it’s a PVP and a PVE SURVIVAL game. Come the rp after where it can come in multiple form and in all these modes…

14

The game is a survival sandbox with the ability to play PVE, PVE-C or PVP.

Need to make this clear because there’s a big distinction.

Don’t get me wrong here, I want PVP to be just as important as the other modes but we can’t lie to ourselves that PVP is the focus or that it’s somehow completely different.

A pvp game is something completely different than a PVE game… it’s way more complicate to create and balance. So yeah PVP need to come first. Or it will be throw to the trash… Maybe we should stop turning around. And that’s what many rp players would like around.

16

Definitely more challenging to get right. I don’t think PVP needs to come first, I think it needs equal attention.

Afaiac it’s already been thrown in the trash. If I thought differently I’d still be playing on PVP servers.

One thing about the PVP community that needs to die is the toxicity of how they present themselves in public spaces; that small little vocal minority that has defined us. Those turds have created the opinion that PVPers are less than and perhaps by extension drove the attention away from the care it has needed. There is a healthy part of the PVP community that are intelligent and well rounded. What I’m basically trying to get down to is that if we want to be taken seriously we need to be responsible, level headed, considerate. If more of us band together (in all places) and present well reasoned arguments it could make a difference. Maybe…

A pvp game is not even about being balance or not i know pvp game who are not balance but who are fun and dynamic to play that’s just what pvp players ask most of the time. And they still alive. The thing is the pvp is not fun anymore or atleast less fun.

18

Well, some points and whole tone of the post quite irritating but i can understand why…
definitely, everything they show are not worth 6-12 month of waiting i am sorry lads…
I love cosmetics, rp and creativity, alive bases, etc, BUT
the game is not about it in the core, its about gameplay, how it plays and feels, so…
any new mechanics? i mean, combat styles, spells, mounts, perks, abilities, full corrupted builds? new weapon types and finishers? new dungeons and enemys?
i dont know, chariots, war elephants, boats, siege machines, special attacks for players and new legendary weapons? anything?

And i a totally agree with the purge, new one is raid mode, its good, but lacking of enemy types and factions
But PVE lost huge chunk of gameplay without old purge, now, buffing your base useless, creating army of thralls and pets too… not all bases suitable for new purge for some reasons, and, well, if you control it, its not a challenge, no element of surprise… no survival(!), in the survival game…

I agree, balance is nice but not the be all that ends all. My most rich and valuable experiences playing multiplayer were because of the relationships I developed with my clan and the extended playerbase I ran into in CE.

If exploits were reduced/addressed, hacking and cheating in general we’d probably see a surge of returning PVPers. But also consider that metas created as a result of changes do often see players being dissatisfied - especially on private servers. High PVP privates where the best of the best combatants play recognize the problems. Or, for fighting alone, seeing it on practice servers.

I think you’re also touching on the concept that CE isn’t really a survival game anymore. You can get just about anything you want handed to you from the world; all that is left to raid and fight for is the salt.

It was because of the live. Some message in the chat was asking to the dev to delete the pvp mode. It’s upsetting me.

My favorite game desesperate me.
