PvE-C servers need new rules

Conan Exiles General Discussion Feedback

Hi,

After 1k+ hours spent in game, I took some time off from Conan Exiles. However, with all the new updates I’m thinking about returning to the game. But the main reason I can’t find the spirit to do so is that there is no official server that actually provides what I want.

I want to build, create villages and castles. But I also want to PvP, a lot. I also want my base to be safe while I’m offline. So yeah, I should be playing on a PvE-C server.

But the thing is, in my opinion, the rules on PvE-C servers are really outdated compared to the current state of the game. Like, why limit the PvP to a restricted time period? Now that you have the PvP banners, everyone can enjoy dueling whenever they want. So the time limit on these servers makes really no sense right now. Imagine fighting to death with a player, and then after some hours you go ahead and kill NPC’s hand in hand… makes no sense and kills all immersion and tension the PvP aspect of this game brings to the table.

Also, with the upcoming mount update, I think you should really address the issue with ‘‘only damaging the player’’ rule. Yes, people don’t want their building to get destroyed by other people on PvE and PvE-C servers. But what about thralls and pets? I think they should be a part of PvP combat, along with mounts ofcourse. Imagine being on a PvE-C server and not being able to kill a player on that tiny limited time window because he is on horseback and you have to simply get a lucky shot while he rides an invincible tank to kill him. I really, really think mounts and thralls should be a part of PvP combat in PvE-C servers.

At least these two changes would make a huge difference for these servers. Any more suggestions are always welcome. But in it’s current state, they’re just PvE servers with an inherited, time limited free ‘‘banner PvP’’ attached to it.

Welcome back! I think that can be achieved if you leave your large building projects unoccupied, and open for all to see.

Join a private server. :grin:

I assumed this reply would come :smiley: But no, I do not want to join a private server as they are less reliable compared to the official servers. The PvE-C servers as they stand now have more room to improve and I think that it is easily achievable.

But thank you for your reply anyways.

Yes I agree with you, they do offer less security. But allow a player to play the game closer to their playstyle. So it’s about weighing up the pros and cons.

Have you considered using this forum to create your own server, with likeminded individuals?
The rental costs are a lot less than you’d think, and you might even be able to find some players willing to split that cost.
