Server performance has nothing to do with having, or not having, a “real combat system”, of which Conan Exiles most certainly does have.

Again, this is a server performance issue, not a combat system issue.

sigh

Look, I am not trying to argue any of your points. I am simply pointing out that you are complaining about the incorrect thing. You are complaining about the servers (I assume you play on officials though you have not sated one way or the other). The servers are provided by G-Portal, not Funcom. Funcom does not own nor operate the servers.

I am not sure how long you have been playing Conan Exiles or if you know the history of Funcom so I will not assume that you are a player from Early Access era as it honestly does not sound like it, though I could be wrong. But the simple fact is, Funcom was on the verge of bankruptcy and ceasing to exist when Conan Exiles Early Access sales saved them. Literally saved them. They would not exist right now if not for the Early Access sales of Conan Exiles. That being said, they still needed servers to actually RUN Conan Exiles. Now, no one knows the details of said agreements because I am rather certain publishing such documents would be illegal but suffice it to say that they were in no position to hammer out any long term deal for high quality servers with the best of service. In other words, they took what they could get and what they could get was G-Portal. G-Portal sucks and is the biggest thing holding Conan Exiles back. Pretty much everything you have described is an issue with the servers and literally nothing to do with the Combat System.

So, you do have valid complaints to make and for anyone who is playing on an official server they are sure to agree that those complaints do in fact make things rather annoying. I personally do not play on officials and rarely if ever run into those issues (most private servers do not rent from G-Portal) but they also maintain their servers to a much higher degree than officials and even include a schedule of wiping the servers to maintain a fresh playing experience. So, this really is just a server issue which, depending on how long Funcom is stuck in this contract with G-Portal, is not likely to go away.
