I recently made aware of a solution of getting crashed in Conan.
The usual solution is to load in offline mode first, run around for a several seconds than load into online.
Well I tested this and it works (Xbox). So here are the steps
Choose solo/offline, than click on new game you will have a warning to override previous saving, click on yes, than the game offers you to choose difficulty, you don’t have to do anything else, just back out and go online.
Just saved you several minutes of loading screen and hassle.
Enjoy
