Why is this YouTube video 100 % correct

To answer your question. They’re on non-official. Even the most stubborn die-hard anti-private server peeps are beginning to make the switch. What they’ve done is made their own official-likes. Having the same settings and no mods.

The difference is the servers can hold more people, have better performance, and much better administration and moderation. Basically they’ve having their cake and eating it too.

My recommendation is to jump ship to one of those servers. Eventually the numbers will be low enough on official that they’ll likely turn them off. You’ll lose your character and stuff when that happens. Moving to a private server hosted outside Funcom means the same thing, but you’ll have to do it anyway. Best to get a headstart now and not get left behind.

Officials are a sinking ship. Your video proves this. To use their highway analogy, the freeways will be shut down, and only the state roads will be available. The good news is new players won’t see the crappy freeways as their first experience. Though it will be 50/50 if they see a good experience on a private server or not. But 50% is better than 0%.

There is a story here in Greece about a father, a son and their donkey. At the end of this story the meaning is that everybody is right, because everybody sees things his own way. My way of seeing things is simple, I like the game a lot and I play it no matter what. But yet again this is how I see it, isn’t it?

As a long time player of conan i have to agree with you, its feels like they are milking this cow for what its worth, now with covid lockdowns in the states, lowering the price of the game 60% is gonna bring more bad players to the pvp community, nothing but hacking/glitching/undermeshing/broken armours what not.

freedom of speech is sometimes not allowed on this forum, its easy to flag a post when the thruth is being seen from a third party.

a hacker hacks someone, then report them, nothing gets done, you get a reply sorry we need more evidence, so what i need to have a life feed video?its ridicolous

wiping officials every 6 months would be best idea, they made farming gods after last update easier, farming is decreased in amounts, making armour cost 3 times more then before


anyway good toppic, i wish they would make conan better its really a fun game to play
just support is verry poorly

anyway thnx for listening

This may end up true. My hope is there is some way to see rankings so players can find the right server for them, as well as have private owners a goal to achieve so they can get traffic on their servers.
Something that lists the raid settings, pvp settings, harvest settings and xp gain. Fo PC maybe some sort of column that states, light, medium, or heavy mod (or none). That sort of thing. Then a place to put a 1- 5 star rating. May not be perfect, but again, even if 80% accurate it is better than blind searching.

Haha true. I wrote “FUNdamentally inCOMpetent” and got a periodic ban from the forums here.

Doesn’t prevent me from telling the truth though. Forum accounts are easy to create.

Yes they are on private servers but we are not talking big numbers, playerbase is going down.

Maybe on PC
 On PS4 pretty much every server is dead. :cry:

Even private? That may be caused that there’s no mods as well.

Oh goody, this video again. I’m sure this entire thread will be super productive like the last time. Sure glad there is somebody who is willing to post this same video every week.

And in case it’s not clear, this post is dripping with sarcasm.

Yeah my team was playing on official 3 server in 3 months always ended wiped by cheaters so we go to this one Siptah private PvP official settings

It could be much worse. The Funcom bashing isn’t terribly bad this time around. Or maybe I’m just being a bit more optimistic than normal. But overall everyone’s staying a bit civil. We’ll see how long that lasts.

Maybe I’ll put my bet on at least till the clock ticks over to 2021 EST. :grin:

So there is a time and place to wipe. Unfortunately most people don’t understand why or when there should be a wipe.

If you’re wiping in order to make the map freely accessible, to give people a fresh start, and to curb years and years of storage. That is a stupid stupid reason to wipe. Dedicated players especially ones working in a group, can easily rebuild their bases, and storage within days after a wipe. I know, I’ve seen people do this. I’ve done this.

But this is the most common reason people call for wipes. Its ridiculous. They have no idea what they are talking about. And the issue they are looking to fix will manifest within 3 days of the wipe. Wiping every 6 months for 3 days of reprieve is stupid and self-centered.

If you’re wiping to curb database corruption, to improve server performance, and to generally get rid of the glitches in the save file. That is absolutely the correct reason to wipe.

Unfortunately people don’t understand when that second reason has been made manifest. I have no doubt many official servers have to this by now. They’ve been up for nearly 1000 days and there’s bound to be some issues on some of them. But that doesn’t mean they all need it. The owners of said database need to make that determination by simply looking at the metrics on their own side of things.

This isn’t something a player logging in can diagnose on their own. They can kinda give a heads up of a POTENTIAL issue, but they can’t definitively say when a wipe is needed. Though many think they are experts on this when they have never ran a server of their own for a extended amount of time.

*The caveat is this response to servers wiping is for Officials ONLY. Of course there will be many reasons for a private server to wipe, up to and including the owner just feels like it. I am not judging that. So keep your keyboard-warrioring at bay if you’re in that group.

Wiping servers can be done by us 
 :slight_smile:

17h50 
 time to get ready for raid time!

Why not people just litre the server with land claim and will refresh even if they haven’t played for months

Agree 100% @Taemien
Makes sense that there should be a core collection of multi-platform official servers out there for starter-players to try the game out on, and then be able to check out and move to any of a large stable of private servers. It gives a more accurate representation, and allows a huge range of gameplay. Most players I have spotted making the ‘change’ have started that way before progressing to private.
