Siptah: kittens, foliage, tree leaves and more not showing for several hours (after Chapter 2 update) - Video

VainValorian · 2023-01-01T20:16:07.988Z

Getting the same issue today. Bought Siptah and literally no foliage spawns in. It’s just dead trees with no leaves and no bushes whatsoever making it impossible to get plant fibers and other resources. Making the map essentially unplayable.

I just got a ps5 2022 Dec. I have been playing CE with all dlcs and siptah for over a year on Pc. I left the Playstation version for the past 2 years due to issues at the time which made it unplayable.

I played on the ps5 for about 20 hours exile lands with almost pc quality. So I added the siptah expansion and created a character on an official server that is low pop. When I started I could see foliage and extras since I had quality set on my launcher. However after my first death I no longer see the foliage and only partial ever loads in now.

This makes leveling a problem to find fiber. At this point I read this issue has been around since September.

How do I get a refund? Or is there a workaround? Without siptah will be a struggle to level.

Hello everyone.

This issue is being investigated and we really appreciate all the information you gathered!

Meanwhile, feel free to send us any more information that you think is relevant.

@Castle117c, in regards to refunds, please contact the store where you purchased the game, in your case it would most likely be Sony

Let me know if I can help with anything else.

I hope this gives a clear indication of the problem

Or is there a workaround?

Yes there is actually…
So if you see no plantation…

I think that solution may be iffy. I know that it hasn’t worked for me, but at least I can still swing wildly with the sickle and harvest things.

stelagel · 2023-01-06T16:39:30.517Z

Welcome to the forum @Desmodian , i use star metal sickle in Siptah in this example, o don’t know if it’s working on exile lands with other Sickles, i haven’t try it yet!

Desmodian · 2023-01-06T16:51:53.467Z

Well, I pretty much only have the issue in Siptah, but haven’t tried the star metal one. It may be unique to that type sickle. I’ll have to try that and see.

stelagel · 2023-01-06T17:25:11.202Z

I know it sounds odd but it would be nice to know, thanks for the effort

Desmodian · 2023-01-07T14:41:13.846Z

Any star metal tool or weapon brought back the plants but not the creatures

My workaround was only for plantation, not for kittens! It is very important my dear friend, until this bug is fixed, for people to have a workaround for this problem! In the past we had a great issue with our followers, they were blocking us and we couldn’t move. Then again, if a loot bag was in shallow waters we couldn’t gain the loot. So @Wak4863 create videos explaining workarounds for these problems (and not only) until devs find vital solutions! To the first you had to walk with a katana always and to the second you had to look high over the bag and collect the loot. So Wak helped a lot people until these problems solved and each forum member knew how to answer and help new players with these issues! That’s the reason this community exists, not measure d… s who’s doing it better from others, but to help each other and share! Thank you for your effort @Desmodian, i really appreciate your cooperation fellow exile .

this also is an issue on PS4/5 Exile Lands. glowing goo which is needed to progress magic story line can not be found in the normal places. some say equip a harvesting tool and it may show, others say just swing in the area where the goo should be, however neither are woring atm.

The expansion should be removed from Playstation Store until this bug is solved.

I just bought Isle of Siptah after removing the bracelet in the Exile Lands. Not had one problem in the Exiled Lands. Upon arrival on Siptah, I have been attacked by invisible wild dogs on the beach. Every time it happened, I logged out and back in, but most of the time in vain. Once, when I had logged back in, I’ve seen a wild dog and, as I could see it, I killed it and looted it. But the next one was still invisible.

This issue makes the game unplayable. Sony is not refunding expansions you have downloaded, unless the devs admit it is an issue. I suppose this is the reason why this is not regarded as an issue yet.

Maybe it is a texture loading problem. In such a case, in most games I’ve played, default textures load instead of the fancy ones. In the early days of Subnautica, you could be attacked by white polygonal stalkers. That is still not the game I had payed 20€ for, but at least there was something I could flee away from. In Conan Exiles, there’s nothing around you, and then you are dead.

Castle117c · 2023-01-12T12:35:33.126Z

They should make it official and say PS5 is not supported. the patch notes are all under PS4…

Castle117c · 2023-01-12T12:37:24.643Z

you got lucky, that doesn’t do anything.

stelagel · 2023-01-12T12:42:16.176Z

@Castle117c
So you tried star metal sickle and it didn’t work for you? Please send me a photo holding star metal sickle if you can! Because on me and others on ps4 it works all the time!

Castle117c · 2023-01-12T12:49:41.094Z

why would it work with starmetal only lol. as i stated above i just came back to conan on a PS5, i’ve been playing for a few years on PC only without any issues. i can’t find fiber to even get to the starmetal phase atm lol…

stelagel · 2023-01-12T13:53:47.610Z

I don’t know @Castle117c, i am not a dev, i am a player who accidentally find this workaround and share it in here!
And don’t forget…

Ive been having the same issue. Trees shrubs animals are all invisible. I can see them from far away but if i get a little closer they disappear. Just got the game so I cant try star metal tools but it makes this map almost unplayable.
