People of the Dragon DLC pack now available! PC Patch Notes [CE-2.6Final] [notes] [performance] Fixed a number of issues that would cause client instability when installing mods on the Windows Store version of the game. Addressed an issue with the decay system that would compromise server stability when large buildings decayed. Fixed a number of client and server crashes. Curbed down on more instances of Log Spam. It’s still quite spammy, though. Significantly improved loading times for clients and servers when playing with large numbers of mods en… Read the blog post about the launch of People of the Dragon Pack: [image] People of the Dragon Pack – Now Available! - Conan Exiles Greetings Exiles! We have just released the all-new People of the Dragon Pack. This DLC offers content from the kingdom of Nemedia and it lets you build stunning castles, decorate them with beautiful placeables and use new armors, saddles and...

we are not questioning the Proceeds , we are questioning the SIZE of this update , do you understand that ONE update is the size of the whole game and its previous DLC’s? like, if you dont understand that , i’m not even saying anything anymore lol

I have two questions: If this is a DLC why do I need it to play the base game? Does Funcom or Steam think everyone or even a majority of their customers are on Gigabit internet? Out in the rural communities, this will take anywhere from 2 to 4 days maxing out the available download.

That’s not what you asked in your first question. Which sounded like you were confused because of the difference between download file size and install file size. That’s a completely different thing. That’s why I answered you why the file sizes are different. My goal was just to clarify this point of confusion. :wink:

Hi and welcome to the forums :slight_smile: is actually relatively straightforward - firstly, it’s not just the dlc, there’s a whole bunch of code updates for the main game, and secondly it makes it possible for people without dlcs to play on servers with people who do, without for example walking through walls and falling through floors. If your game doesn’t have the assets for the dlc, then it won’t recognise that they exist, which could cuse all sorts of problems. The downside is that, even if you never buy the dlcs, the base game will need to add in the assets for each dlc in case someone you play with has them. Yes, that is a big problem - though I will say it seems to be pretty much the way the internet works - it always seems to advance to match the newest ‘standard’ that many communities do not have access to and won’t for years or even decades. It’s similar to the problem of games always being made to take advantage of the newest hardware… 2-4 days for a download sucks and I feel for you (or anyone else having to deal with it), but I don’t really know what solution there is without major changes in the industry or in the way player-bases interact with games :confused:

After taking 4 hours and 15 minutes to update, I am getting nothing but crashes when trying to log into a server. The character gets in and immediately “Fatal Error” with a pop-up to send Funcom a Bug Report. GRRRR. edit: same thing happens trying to go into solo game.

The downside is that, even if you never buy the dlcs, the base game will need to add in the assets for each dlc in case someone you play with has them. I had someone off forum explain this. I did not realize this was going to be available on all servers. My first thought were DLC’s were only available to those that have them, however I was reminded that someone who paid for DLC x and made X weapon and gave to me, I magically could see and use it. (I did not connect those dots until just now. Thanks for that.)

Out here in the rural communities, there are many if not every internet user in particular towns and surrounding communities that can’t even get DSL. (DSL has a physical distance limit between customer and the expensive DSLAN {I think that is the correct acronym} equipment oh the phone company.) So they are now stuck with in-the-air technologies. I.e. Satellite. For these people I will often recommend a windows 10 LOCAL user profile (non-microsoft login) and pay for the non-subscription versions of office if they need them. The main reason for this is the latency these people experience is so high that the Microsoft validation servers timeout the requests. This is not an issue for the first 20-30 days, but if they never get a successful validation, either their software reverts to an unpaid version or doesn’t even allow them to log in. I have no idea what to do for these people after 2025 when Windows10 is no longer supported and windows 11 that requires a Microsoft account (presently). It will be interesting times indeed. (Maybe by 2025 Starlink will be the mainstay and everyone will have gigabit internet.) (I am just now getting these rural people moved over to Starlink. At least the ones that can afford the $500 equipment fee.)

@Ignasi - I forgot the client has mods. Once removing the mods, I was able to get in the SP game. I am now testing the mods one at a time.

@Community Another 60 GB update? You have seriously got to be pulling on my leg. I am not going to pay an addition $120.00 (U.S. Currency) it will cost me in overage charges to do this again. Every time a big update drops, it costs me way more than this game cost (not including the DLCs). I have already forked over way too much money on this and to tell you the honest to God truth, this is not worth it. I’m done with this.

There seems to be a problem with the saddles - someone already posted (don’t remember if on DC, or forum) that the Turanian Cavalry saddle is void of colour. I can confirm that the Aquilonian Scout saddle also seems to be suffering from the same problem: [Saddle_Bug_Aq01]

Hey @Valkyrja

Are you playing with any mods installed?

If so, please be aware that right after an update there may be stability issues until each mod is updated to be compatible with the latest game version.
