Huh, what’s the story there?
Oh okay, from your post it sounded like maybe SIptah was an experimental first map or something that was abandoned and cannibalized for the Exiled Lands map, and I was like huhwut.
I am afraid that you have that reversed.
Conan Exiles began with the Exiled Lands (EL) map. That is what they launched with. From there, they expanded the Exiled Lands with The Frozen North. They pushed the boundries of the map north, and probably doubled the size of the map. Then they expanded the Exiled Lands into the Jungle.
It was not until after that when they eventually offered a new map. The new map was pursued because much of the real estate of the old Exiled Lands map was pushing the boundries of what they were able to contain with respect to objects, containers, textures, and other devkit-type-speak that I cannot accruately articulate. That was when they gave us The Isle of Siptah.
Since selling the Siptah DLC, they haven’t really ever gone back to the Isle of Siptah. Not to finish delivering it. Not to finish polishing it. Not to go back to Siptah for major bug fixes, and the like. It’s a sad, misfit toy that Funcom just fully abandoned. There is great potential there to finish/complete a full on story arc. But Siptah is done. Funcom has made pretty clear that they got their cash grab from that map, and they don’t intend to go back and give it any more love ever again. It’s a shame. Because there’s a pretty large swath of the Conan Exiles player audience that really loves Siptah. And still plays it. Well… or - they would play it. If proper and aligned investments were made to it.
Since Siptah, some of the Siptah-generated loot and concepts have been brought back to the Exiled Lands. But I assure you - Exiled Lands were the first to be charted.
indeed, no story? ![]()
ok…
spitah has a story with siptah’s Journal, a stygian empire, explorers… the maelstrom…ect…ect…
There are many story on spitah, many charactter, many dreams…
i did the same thing, i went to discover the island and added my own story…
ok there are no beginning and no end
this power belongs to you…
But i can understand…
Oh Oh Nuuu … I just saying( I have learned) when they created Exiles map over time they pulled existing stuff from Siptah map into the Exiles map. eg. the wormy monsters you see in Events, or Events even, to today with AoH they have introduced Jailors and Thrall cages in to Exiles that has existed on Siptah forever…and to Clarify my words saying Siptah is for me the better map is it has many more challenges in the dungeons(15) the leyshrines(6- with many levels of challenge), Hourly storms that bring out monsters, and the map in general even harvesting is challenging.
I will correct myself, I only been playing a short time, and every player that I speak too have said, they played Siptah first (seems like the last 6 years or more) and moved their stuff to Exiles on a Upgrade, now back to me, I just glad I played Exiles first then Siptah, as if I had played Siptah first them moved to Exiles I would be expecting more and be disappointed.
Right, there are all these excellent pieces there, but nothing that allows us to tie them together to complete the map as the Exiled Lands has.
Which is what makes it so vexing.
- The two isles at the south of Siptah are very good, among the best of the all game i think. Original settings, good visuals and they are not too large to be boring.
- That’s not the case for the rest of the “original” Siptah Island, which is pretty poor, unimaginative, way too large and empty and so boring to travel. The infinite empty beach especially, the large plain at the center, all the northern half of the map, the north-east isle, the hills above the forest at the eastern half …
- There are also too much random-placed boss and mobs that make no sense, just here to populated the emptyness. Giant Spider waiting at the top of a hill, without any web, cave of anything to create immersion. Undead aroud a ruins, on bright day, enjoying the sea …
- Vaults are basically all the same with just a change of monsters. This is the lowest quality content you can make, boring and repetitive.
- Siptah tower is not even a dungeon with boss. Huge disappointment.
- Except Valeria (that is just a rocky-mob that speak), you don’t even have other “interesting” NPC to meet.
- There are not any feeling of progression on the island. On Exile lands, you go from Oasis to the desert, then the Jungle, then you’re led to the North, then the volcano, then into the volcano. It’s like a MMO travel. In Siptah, it’s just a giant burger map where you wander aimlessly in half-empty biome.
It’s a shame to see Siptah so unfinished, unbalanced. This map had good potential with some cthulu-related ambiance but there was flaws in the map-concept since the beginning, and the content was clearly abandonned by Funcom.
I remember a time when some games were not finished
not enough storage capacity…
it was necessary to write the rest of the code…
we had the time but not the technology
today the only difference
is that we have the technology and no more time…

None
. I just reacted to the poor relation
. It’s obviously wrong in every aspect!!!
And for the story, that many people in this chat didn’t experience, Funcom lost over 70% of the console population for creating Siptah…
We are speaking for over a decade of thousand regular players from Playstation. It was over a year without updates. The word “dead” was a chewing gum in here. After this thrall caps and merges will continue…
Guess how this went ![]()

.
Then they will find me right next to them, support them. As long they do it properly and in correct timing.
The day that the update arrived and the forum is in a complete delirium with the problems of each update brings “every freaking time” the last years, is not a good day!!!
Like we say in my country…
“Word in time worth kingdoms”
ENJOYING meeting new people online, getting gratitude and in times sweet warm tears and having a blast in my gaming hours while i play the game i love the most
.
You are in to a fight i see!

Have a nice evening, you knock the wrong door fellow exile. I am sorry!
you know I always said
the first responsible is Funcom
Saint-exupéry ecrivait dans le petit prince
Tu es responsable de ce que tu as apprivoisé
Then what else I said, often
The attendance, people are fed up with trolls and cheaters, haters…
all kinds of haters, disrespectful of others
