PC Patch Notes (15.06.2018) Build 100728/18311

This was a great patch, it fixed a lot of stuff and the new decay system is awesome!

Please keep up the good work and don’t listen to the angry dongs!

People should understand that bug fixing takes time and a lot of effort.

great patch? What did she fix? do you play this game, or just look into it and manage a server. Look what’s going on in the bug reporting forum. After this patch the game is completely unplayable. It takes time to repair bugs, just why nobody repairs the same bugs from the release of early access and more new ones. Does Funcom pay you for easing people instead of giving a kick to your programmers? Still no official position by Dev how to clean up this mess.

Yes, i have my own server FuryOfConan and i have set it up my self. It is a windows 2016 server so i set it all up my self.

I currently play the game everyday and i have seen huge improvements in server performance and client performance after this last patch.

There is also a good bunch of fixes to the Ai and the Thralls.

The big thing that really help my game experience is the new decay system. It now cleans up the server and that also helps the performance.

They don’t need to give me a position on how to proceed. They already do good patch notes here and on the test server. You can always get an indication on what they are working on.

Like i said, compared to other games this is going way better in continued development. Did they release to soon, yes but usually it’s some corporate hack or as we call them in Denmark “Slipse dreng” that forced the release to soon.

Devs are going in the right detection, and that is all that matters.

I actually think you are reflecting and that you are the person that has not played the game much since the last update…

I bought the game a long time in EA and played all the time until 14.06 when the patch for the testlive version was released. I will not offend you and I will not say that the game is going in the right direction. Funcom does exactly the same thing as AoC does not listen to and does not respond to community suggestions, it is difficult to find another game that would have more bugs from CE and it’s already officially released. They give patches that are full of errors on testlive and with the same errors enter the official version. Nobody with Funcom does not bother to test the patch before the release. We test it and report it here on the forum but Funcom does not listen (does not read) and breaks the game more and more. I can give you a dozen or more errors that you can see in a few minutes after starting a new game from building to survival, these errors have been with us for over a year some serious other cosmetics but still old and not repaired. I will not give them because if you play, you know them and these errors cause that after a while you do not want to play. All are given here on the forum.

Mh… I do agree how it feels bad for all those bugs existing that long…
But!

I really think the devs have been working 18 hours per day since 2 months. Possibly longer…
They have been pushed to keep the release date - at least that is what I think. I would have been okay with the release having been delayed for a few months, if we then got a fixed game…
Well. Hopefully the update with taming and jebbal sag gets as much time to fix things as combat update got. In order for it to be released without many bugs. Maybe it could be be released with a discount on the game+dlc? To get old players back?

No. Not for me. Maybe for you.
Don’t generalize your experience.
A lot of people have had problems, caused by some mods (not all mods caused problems!).
But if you are using mods you should beware of this kind of risk.

I’m playing on an private server (hosted) with 5 small mods active. I have had no problems!
And if all the people, who are online, not just sitting in front of the client, a lot of people have played right after the patch and right now.

I’m a bit disappointed, that my thralls still vanishing into the foundations, but this is an old bug.

After patch 15.06.2018 weapon racks as well as shild display racks works for me as intendet. I play on an privat dedicated server without mods.

I do not generalize and I have no problem with the game only with errors in it that are not repaired by anyone. You are just writing the “old errors” you got used to and do not bother you? Apart from other errors, very annoying error with resetting the queue of tasks in the workshop and the wheel of pain just makes the game not playable at the moment and will agree with me several thousand players who from Friday are waiting for the repair of even this one mistake. Write in the subject below where we all report errors and requests for their removal that we generalize this problem you have such a bravery?
And the only activity today on the Dev forum is to instruct the player to send information about the exploit in a private message and not broadcast on the forum that is from it. And Dev from listening and instructing their programmers to fix the old exploit :frowning:

I think you exaggerate at your side. True, there are bugs which are annoying, but it’s far from “not playable”. The only thing that comes in mind are, not being able to grind red lotus. But this still doesn’t make the game unplayable. You can still get all the high tier stuff, doing PvP, building colossal strongholds, kill every dungeon boss etc., in it’s current state. Furthermore, claiming Funcom doesn’t respond to the reported errors is plain false! They multiple times made clear, that they can’t and won’t answer any single reported error but still take note of it. They schedule a large bug fix patch for late this week.

I do not like pvp, and I can not build large buildings because they crumble (supports forget they should support) I can not visit any dungeon because there is a mistake of getting out of the water, I can not catch slaves because the workshop resets the task collection and I can not play after 12 hours to tame them When you limit yourself to only pvp, such errors as I mentioned did not bother you. Funcom does not have to answer the reported bugs, only fix them and does not do it, but adds new ones, and to the old ones it’s punishable to get used to it and forget it. so they announced the amendment and will be like the previous ones, something that the players can not even see is fixed. adding another 50 errors later.

If a game make no fun to play, I stop playing it.
CE has annoying bug, sure. But for the moment I have fun and this is the important part.
I’m playing at my own private server. So I’m able to bypass some of the bugs (ie: if a thrall disappears into the foundations or other structures, I go to the admin console and give me a new one).

I’ve played on an official server while early access. And this is not my first online game. So my decision based on my experience from early access was, either to wait 6 months or to run my own server.

Do the bugs bother me? Yes, they do. But not so much, that I get angry about the game and the devs and funcom and the rest of the world. If it would bother me so much, then I would just stop playing the game, uninstall it and went to another game.

I have played more than 1500 hours, and if just half of the time, it was fun to play, the game was worth every cent!

A cool way to play for which you have to pay to be able to play without nerves is to use the allowed administrator tools for cheating. So it certainly allows you to enjoy the game :slight_smile:
I think that you are a very young man who has not yet appreciated what it means to earn and spend the money earned on the broken game. :slight_smile:

LOL, no, I’m not a young man. I assume, that I’m significant older then you :slight_smile:
And I know, what it means to earn money, trust me.

I just found my way to play the game without to much trouble.
I’ve played a few online games from day one. And there was not one game without game breaking bugs within the first three to six months.

I’ve played ESO two times within the beta phase. My decision was to wait six months.
After six months I checked the forums and after my impression there I was waiting another six months before I bought the game.

But here, as I said, I can bypass a lot of problems, if I run my own server.
And for me it was o.k. to invest additional money (hosted server) to have fun while playing the game.
Otherwise I would not have start playing this game right after release, because of the bad experience of other “day one” games in the past.

How do you win with my yearbook, 75 is ok :slight_smile: and so I waited a long time from last year to play CE tracking the improvement of the game which I supported in EA, the flaw in May is more than half a year. It’s even consistent with what you wrote :slight_smile: And it happens to be self-sufficient with this publisher from AoC or Dev’s absence and lack of communication and reaction. Come here ARK which is very similar and yet the publisher Wild Card has a completely different approach to their clients and communication is not perfect but is, and the game with each patch is better. Here is the retreat and it’s sad because it’s not the players who want to fix the game for themselves to be able to play it, do not you think?

That would be time when they started breaking the game…

This is that one thing for real I’m pissed off! And I think it’s not only me.
Bugs and problem are “normal” after release.
But I want to know if “my” bug is a known bug. Known by the devs.
I want to know if they can reproduce the bug and if they have a idea how to fix it or not.

It would be o.k., if we get informed, that the bug will be not easily be fixed, but the devs are aware of it and looking for a solution.

It is also o.k., if we get informed, that they are not able to reproduce the bug and that they have no idea about the source of the problem. So everyone were informed.

But right now:

  • No official list of known bugs and the prioritization for the bugs.
  • No information about the state of bug fixing.

Only a vague information, that the next big patch will be about 500 issues/ bugs fixes / blabla.
But I don’t know, if MY bug will be fixed, too.

This behavior bothers more, than the bugs itself.

Exactly and this error Dev repeated since the release of AoC and that game really badly ended :frowning:

Fatal Error Second Notice
Single Player Savegame
Issue: Fatal Error before savegame loads

Summary: ever since this patch my savegame will not load. Any computer, any installation, any setup. Fatal Error.

To repeat

  1. Load Single Player savegame
  2. Two loading screens
  3. Fatal error

If I cannot load this savegame I will be forced to recreate hours of content for my channel. One of my shows hinges on my savegames. If this will not be corrected I need to know so I can tell my viewers we won’t be doing an episode any time soon.

Uhm…
Is it intended for the flawless lemurian boots to only grant +1 accuracy? It should be +2, considering how much those other flawless boots grant. (All +2.)

Also I am still looking for why gloves only grant +1, even when they are flawless…

I was going to write a bunch of notes on this patch.

But really all it was intended to do was release the money tiles.

WE can no longer skip the intro movie, the loot system is broken, thralls are still broken, lag is awful, dead players still disappear, my clan mates and I can’t see each others torches!

So, great job, awesome patch, we simply cannot wait to see what horrors are unleashed by the UPDATE, if that ever happens, and you guys don’t go broke.

Keep up the tryhard. And those of us who are stupid enough to keep believing in you will keep playing your absolutely beautiful, broken ■■■ game.
