PS4 Halloween Update (31.10.2018)

If there is anything else I can test out just let me know.

Hi there…

I tried to do this, but it was effectiveness. I’m playing on a SP Co-op session on ā€œRegularā€ difficulty (Default settings).

It seems that none of the approaches suggested so far is working… =’(

Thank you for replying to this message

Ps4 hi my wife is being raided at home and pets and thralls don’t respond any suggestions last night plenty aggressive Thanks

Will that hotfix address the crashing and freezing issue in offline single player? Because to be honest, when the game crashes, my PS4 locks up and I’m left with a black screen, leaving me no choice but to pull the plug from the wall, and I’m sure that can’t be healthy for the console.

Hello there I would like to report that Conan Exiles kept crashing every time I would attempt to load singleplayer offline. Once I purchased the Savage Frontier Pack add-on the game no longer crashes when attempting to load singleplayer offline.

is this like mel brooks’s movie ā€œthe producersā€ where if you put out a bad enough product you’ll somehow make more money? cause i can assure you i am never buying a product from your company again which is sad cause i was really looking forward to what you were going to do with Solomon Kane and Mutant Chronicles, one of my favorite comics and tabletop games back in the 80’s. now i’m just dissapointed that you guys have the rights to them so they can be made into buggy unplayable messes, i havent been this let down since i E.T. for attari back in 1982, don’t be E.T guys just fix whats broke stop with the pacifiers like animal taming and make a door that opens and closes properly, kind of ironic that was the biggest problem in E.t.

New to this forum so bare with me ha.
Love the idea of the Halloween update, and i got to play it for a good 20 mins perfectly yesterday. I logged off shortly after seeing the update and mining some meteors and decided to log back on about 2 hours later. After logging back on the game is virtually unplayable. There is constant lag caused by the constant falling of the meteors, which makes it look as though im watching a picture reel rather than playing the game. I made my way to the meteors (still lagging.) and tried to harvest them but i noticed they were just breaking on impact rather than stay in the ground. Maybe this is the cause of the constant meteors falling? I’m not sure.

Also is there a fix coming for this on PS4 as i really don’t fancy not playing the game for a week and missing out lol.

Thanks anyways

single player offline , and havent been able too play since the patch

Hey, I play on a xbox one sp world, I was having the same issues before I put my setting back to default and and re-logged, if that doesnt help then try turning your regular respawn and despawn timers up to nine re-log then set back to default and re-log again… this should only have an effect on items with spoil timers but you should only lose one or two things per stack… hope this helps!

Alright after a little grinding, 2 hours, on this event and knowing exactly where a meteor shower is located and what time it shows up, every 20 minutes, so 6 meteor events, on the dot which gives me plenty of time to run back to another base and drop off materials…

I got 15 rocknose eggs, 30 cooked abysmal flesh, 15 dragonpowder, 25 legendary repair kits, 34 black dyes, 22 white dyes, 27 skeleton keys, 11 red dragon heads, 67 gold coins, 39 silver coins, 55 demon-fire orbs, 7 star metal picks, 32 dragon lures, 51 star metal bars, 19 dragonhorns and various other crap including a ridiculous amount of ironstone and smaller amounts of obsidian, silverstone and goldstone. And that’s just me camping up one spot for 2 hours of time.

This is broken beyond belief, especially for a PvP server or an RP type server. PvP obviously because of the rate of raiding tools that drop and RP obviously because of their trade economies.

This doesn’t touch on the T2 doors not existing issue, some of the stutter that occurs to outright crashing for some people, the perpetual blue hue that I could see bothering people and the fact you can get endgame materials in such vast quantities that there is no need to actually do endgame activities for who knows how long.

I will now agree that this was not a well thought out event by Funcom.

That’s just my two cents and I’m sure there are some people who really enjoy it.

We’ve already hotfixed most of this Issues on PC and are working on the console versions at the moment :slight_smile:

btw, i liked your post for the work you did. I do not like the hard numbers you posted. Proves why i am done. Just totally threw out all PvP server strategies/plans during war time out in a 24 hour period for those that could not enjoy this event on day 1. I was okay with the aesthetics and atmosphere change, even some of the cosmetic loot drops. But to weaponize instantly at that rate, totally throws 6 months of learning tactics/fighting builds out the window. I am not going to out grind those numbers to try and balance the fight. Would be starting over again in a way, and as much as i love 90% of this game, i just have to leave to do something different before i forget the fun i did have playing it.

As Tascha said, this is gonna be hotfixed, and I know that dragonpowder and skeleton keys were removed from the loot table, but the real problem is there’s likely people who were on all day yesterday and then today before it was hotfixed.

And since there’s various parts of the map where the meteors drop, I found one and didn’t care to look for another, imagine a clan just camping out the meteor showers? Say there’s 4 of these drop ā€œzonesā€ and they have 4 or more in their clan all camped on each one. Take my numbers, multiple them by 4, and then multiple them by 6 to say they camped for 12 hours.

We’re talking a clan of 4 who could potentially have 360 dragonpowder and 1320 demon fire orbs. That’s a lot of bases they have the ability to destroy and if they were the only clan on that server farming and camping, they effectively can kill the server. Not too mention how many legendary weapons they could have by now with 600 repair kits to fix them.

I farmed the meteors last night and got nowhere near the amount of good stuff you did. It’s rng and some people are killing it, others are getting resources. No point in nerfing the rewards, keep it same so all have equal chance. That is balance.
