Hello,
Recently after a break i returned to conan exiles.
First i tried official PVP:
-Server performance is abysmal.Even solo on empty servers, simply walking into sepermeru creates this buttery feeling.NPC’s just freeze and only do 1 animation.If they move at all.
-Any server with people on it , has people complaining daily about cheaters and hackers.The playerbase has been boiled out to a crisp.
-Cant play solo in a official setting because you will only get destroyed and farmed.Ceronesthes PVP stories are what? 1 out of a 100 attempts to get a cool story going?Even he resorted to making videos about the cheaters.
-Sky bases are now completely undectable due to no building pieces required to build one.
-Large clans go from server to server destroying any and all will to play. New players trying out the game for the first time getting hammered until they quit.These big clans feel cold and unnatural due to the lack of frienship build up.Why not make solo,duo,trio servers?Players can meet eachother without the fear of some zerg showing up and wiping the whole server.
-Inventory bug of items not filtered correctly and when dismantling with construction hammer : items stack on top of eachother. Forcing the player to constantly switch between filters.
-Crafting stations do not auto-correct burned resources: When you open a crafting station that has been crafting, you need to first drag a item to a different location for the filter to be applied.Doubling the amount of interactions needed to work.This worked fine in the past.
-Looking for a server is a horror show.Modded servers dont have a long enough menu to show the entire mod list.You basically have to guess and start downloading the whole list to see what mods are on the server.
-Filter settings arent saved.Causing players in search of a server to readjust the filters over and over again.
-Events are boring, too easy and have no worth while rewards.They basically interfere with natural gameplay.
-Clutter in loot boxes.Tables, chairs,banners,torches,etc… Completely useless items causing unnessesary inventory management and work for the player that leads to frustration.
-Newly introduced thralls are OP and unkillable.(used a LIU Fey as a punching bag for 20min and lost 0 health.)
-Only 1 weapon used on the entire server “diseased” debuff.
-Q-lock on PVP servers…
-No regular server wipes: There isnt a single server without somebody who claimed all the OP baselocations.Or where a clan shows up out of nowhere because they had a bodyvault.People search for enemy bases days on end only to realize the enemy never had a base in the first place.
-DemonFireBarrages and explosive jar crafting timers are ragequittingly slow.
-After a raidattempt,players have to spend hours climbing up and down their base, repairing 100’s of building pieces.Raid time is over, why not restore all hp or at least make it so that in between raid times players can one-tap their base and all building pieces are repaired.
-Splitting item stacks… just try it.it worked well before, now its just bad man, so bad…
-Quick stack option chooses some extra random items and decides to throw those in a box with the select items you wanna quick stack.
-The purge is a single line of NPC’s that only attack doors.
-Executions make the player lose control over its character and often lock on from meters away.Freezing the player in place until the NPC drops dead after the timer to execute is expired.Fighting multiple NPC’s at once is extremely frustrating due to over use of NPC stunlock.Not enough hyper armor for the player once the attack is initiated.This causes a very boring and generic gameplay loop where the player is forced to do 1 hit and roll, one hit and roll.
Not every NPC hit should cause the player to be stun locked.Some should just go straight thru and only do damage.
-Not enough stamina:Cant complete a full combo in many cases and roll out of danger.So why dodge at all? Simply farm with heavy armor and tank all the hits… so boring.(When you play, you are running to the npc before attacking but you have to slow down to have a full stamina meter before the fight starts.
-Over encumbered punishes too much and happens too fast.Skin 2 animals:over-encumbered.
-Slower rolling, cant ride a horse, more stamina drain when doing actions, cant use all weapons because no strength perks.99,9% of all playtime is played as a encumberance build making a strength build completely useless unless you are fully set up and absolutely need anything.The only option for a strength build is to scout and gank other players or protect a clanmate that is in a encumberance build.Imagine sitting on a horse looking at the skyline for 2 hrs because you cant pick anything up and you clan needs resources.your friend is playing but you are there to watch him play.
-Report meta: Some places allow for building but when you report a player building there.They get banned… WHAT!? Most of these passages and tunnels are easily navigated around with a extra time required of mere seconds.they arent blocking anything."The gutter,eye that never closes,tunnel on siptah near the spider dungeon… its a long list and its downright disgusting.
I can type for another 2 hours, you need to seriously start playing your own game, because conan has never feld so bad to be honest.
Thank You and sry but its simply true.Maybe ill come back in a year or something.
BTW: i stopped checking the bazaar as well.Ive been wanting to buy the Gibbet for almost 2 years now… its just hilarious how a unlimited supply of pixels are beeing blocked from purchase because you are trying this slimy psychological trick of FOMO.
The person who came up with this, should be fired because he is literally costing you money trying to make money.
