It’s been awhile since I’ve played Conan so I decided to try it out again. What happened to movement on here, roll dodging a fat man rolls faster than I can in game, and changes to weapon attacks. Smh guess I’ve been gone way to long. On a good note I guess we have mounts haven’t got 1 yet but not sure if I’m gonna play online. Is there a way to revert some of these changes or am I stuck with them I’m on ps4
Unfortunately, console users can’t use mods, so you’re stuck with those changes.
Well that sucks if it’s been like that for awhile I can assume these changes are here to stay then
Yeah, you’ve been away for a long time if you missed all the furor on the forums about the “new dodge roll”. If it’s any consolation, it was horrible when they first introduced it, like trying to steer a walrus. We all complained so much that they toned it down to this.
FWIW, this version is not too hard to get used to. Just gotta make a mental switch: the dodge has changed from a way to disengage, to a way to negate an attack.

Well I’ll just have to adjust I won’t be going on any official servers anytime soon not until I get used to all these changes
If you go light gear, and put 20-30 aggility u will have a roll that is good.
Otherwise in heavy dodge is better then old one dosnt matter what points u put in aggility.
Didn’t someone make a post titled “How I stopped complaining and learned to love the new dodge” or something like that? Its been a couple of months. But someone posted an interesting thread detailing their love/hate relationship with the new dodge mechanics.
To put is shortly, they listed how they hated it. But then learned how to use it and admitted that they actually liked the change.
I came back to the game a bit after it was introduced, so like the OP, I had just missed the commotion and was like, wtf happened here? And it was a struggle, a real one at first. At least until I saw a video detailing the new AGI relation. Once I put 20 points in, it felt way way better.
And then I began to like it. Because one of the issues I had with CE back in the day was that people were rolling all over the place. Both in PVE and PVP. It was just weird and a bit immersion breaking. It made for decent gameplay, don’t get me wrong. From a gameplay standpoint it was alright. But still immersion breaking. It’d be like if Super Mario Bros wasn’t stylized and looked realistic, but Mario is still jumping 3x his height. It would look weird.
Its still weird. Because its still useful in like 70% of situations. But its no where near as bad as before. And its still decent from a gameplay standpoint. You just need to learn when to dodge, when to block, and when to sprint. Alot of the times when I dodge an attack, I actually sprint for a half a second to one side or the other rather than dodge. Uses less stamina and I have really good control where I go.

Thanks for tip I used to put 20 at least in agility for the fall damage passive when I played I wore mostly medium btw I’m still trying out some things
I liked being a rolly polly but yeah I can see the point of the change in roll dodging which I’m kinda getting the feel for it. Now my biggest problem is when trying to build I feel like I’m on roller skates lol but getting used to that to the building is still my favorite part of the game

I’ve learned to like the new dodge, too. When it first came out it felt weak, and ineffective, and just wrong, and I didn’t like it at all. My character was a lightly armored rogue-type person and I wanted her to feel agile.
But I realized that the new dodge wasn’t going away. Rather than complain about it, I learned it. I went to fight different kinds of NPCs with various weapon loadouts (still only light armor, though, because that’s not going to change) until I felt that I had got the hang of it.
And I discovered that the new dodge is actually pretty okay. I think I even have more fun playing with it because it’s not the automatic “Get out of jail, free!” card it used to be. Timing is important, and getting it right feels that much more satisfying because it feels like I’m actually good at it, rather than just spam-clicking the Dodge button.
Yes, it’s weaker than the old dodge. It won’t get you out of a bad situation. But it also makes combat feel more intense. And if you need an actual disengagement maneuver, the dagger-backflip is still there (and is one of the reasons why daggers are my primary weapon of choice).

Yeah it does make it a little more challenging on some fights but like I mentioned to another I feel like I’m on roller skates when I’m building but still love the building part of the game

You are all welcome to come to our server a for different atmosphere. Boosted crafting and harvesting and it’s been a real blast. Buildings take a hell of a lot more damage and because of the crafting speeds, it’s become more about the battles than looting. Build for looks rather than bulky blocks of rock. Active admin keeps coming up with random spawns of bosses in world and loot crates. Feel free to check it out.

Thanks for the invite but I’m honestly taking a break from pvp play did a lot on ark and eso
This is not your usual PvP. Try it. Bet you’ll love it. If you come on, make sure to visit the welcome center for some starting tools, gas mask, food and drink. Oh and a foal. (Just east of sentinels on noob river)
I think you will be pleasantly surprised.
Believe me. We get your frustration with PvP and toxic players. This is why we addressed that issue on our server.
Spend a day there and bet you’ll favorite it.
As you can see from this avatar testing we did on the server back wiping will NOT be an easy task. Lol
I might check it out I’m messing around on single player right now for the most part
Where you one of our new players that popped on yesterday? If so, How do you like the server? Pretty fun right?
Btw, keep your head on a swivel when you exit your base. I hear that creatures of the exiles randomly appear to Lee you on your toes. Lol
I got on it honestly it’s not for me and I was lagging a lot for some reason
