New updates and changes are making players leave?

This is simply an observation I’ve had by talking to other players I’ve met in this game.
Right after the update, things became more tedious than fun and awarding.
My whole server left the game and decided that they didn’t want to stay with the direction the game is going.
To be frank, I do not blame them at all.
The changes of recipes from my observation was a big cause for that.
Players in my opinion, simply feel unappreciated and misunderstood.
Yes, there were more changes to the game that made it more balanced, but it didn’t make the experience more fun.
I would even hear jokes at the expense of Funcom that they would misunderstand some criticism and make changes that would kill the game even more for everyone.
The point I’m trying to make is that all these additional obstacles are not fun.
It personally makes me feel like the time I’ve spent in this game was wasted since I was expecting changes to make things more dynamic.
It is upsetting to me because there were a lot of dedicated players I’ve met who quit.
Nevertheless, I only log on to not lose my base and resources at this point.

Ciao penso tu abbia ragione! In più bon dicono nulla su possibili date del nuovo grande update! Anche il mio server si è spopolato ma non sembra che funcom lo consideri un problema! Gli ho chiesto se pensavano di poter aprire i server… Non mi hanno neanche risposto! Boooo

I went from almost a full server to 0 and could not figure out why, this could be it as I have not changed anything else. I thought it may have been the lag and glitches annoying players but maybe not.

I admit some changes have annoyed me, but some I can understand. The change to the recipe for insulated wood being one, the previous one was way too easy to mass-produce. It only required wood, a dryer and a carpenter’s bench, you just needed to put the wood in the dryer to get dried wood and resin and then put the resin and dried wood in a carpenter’s bench to make insulated wood, which seems a little too simple for a tier 2 building material that used to be exceedingly easy to farm, the added material of oil made it that little bit less easier to farm.

Might help to be a bit more specific on what you find isn’t fun or how you feel Funcom has ignored you.

Almost everyone left my server to the point I just shut it dwn they are “fixing things” but it seems yo make a lot of things worse or harder and still seem to not be worried about any of the new content except cosmetic dlc and people have become bored and frustrated I know there job is not easy I just with they would have waited to release it because now I fear what could have and still could be a great game is dead no matter what cause people have not just quit playing they have deleted it completely and don’t seem to even be considering checking it out agian I still hold hope and no they are trying just wish they would spit there atten on some other things beside the fixes and adjustments that just make it harder to play in a lot of cases

I think the biggest problem is that too many people complain about all the issues that won’t fix the game. Instead of offering funcom constructive criticism, people whinge and whine about the most pathetic of things - so many people complained that it was too easy to make tier 3 black ice, so funcom changed that. So many people complained about untouchable builds so funcom made areas unbuildable. The game is being ruined by everyone on the internet who has a bad experience then slates it to high heaven because they didn’t get their way. This is Conan, its a survival game and its suppose to be difficult - too many people want an easy ride an unfortunately they get it because funcom has to listen to their community. I have my own server and we grow every day - a result of believing this game is what you make it. The day funcom stops listening to all these idiots and get back to work will be the day this game really picks up. I for one will not be ditching it and will see it through to the very end

On PS4 I can’t say I have seen many changes that would push players away.

They added oil to the construction of dry wood planks. Not a big deal really.
They also made the yellow potion die within 2 mins or less. Irritating and annoying but no reason to leave the game.

What changes on PS4 were made that made so many leave? Seriously other then bugs and glitches I see no updates that changed things in a way to frustrate players.

Maybe the updates coming could be annoying enough some would quite but a change to wood wouldn’t do it.
