    I found you through your collaborations with Neebs Gaming. You are a great strait man versus their.... absurdity. I hope you keep working with them. Also Conan Exiles bugs! Yeah It is one of the primary reasons I have NEVER bought into their battle pass. I bought the game. I am not going to pay for the bugs. If they don't even bother to fix the problems then they obviously don't need my money. Don't get me wrong. It is a fun and enjoyable game but if they don't put in the effort to fix the bugs, some of which have been around a ridiculously long time, then I am not going to pay more or reward them for it.

    Play again. Have always enjoyed your CE playthroughs. One thing you've taught me about CE is to be vigilant about the 'jank'. It's always there, lurking, waiting for us to get comfortable and then it pounces! The jank is most certainly frustrating. I'm sure all who play CE have suffered from janky deaths. While harvesting stone, the server unexpectedly restarted and I spawned inside a rock. SMH, JANK, it's our constant companion and enemy! Really like the idea of this series. Give it another try!

    I am in this game from the early Beta version, more then 1 year before early access even so I went trough everything(No climbing era, no thralls, pets, no sandmask, no hardened steel, star metal, no sickle, no journeys, no DLC, completely different atribute tree, pure survival and hard as hell). This bugs suck, but I am sure that you Wak are aware of it as well, when I started my own personal chalenge I set it up that I will not harvest or gather anything I will just get all my stuff from chests and enemies, I can build everything I want but do not harvest single piece of material. So as zou know all these "old funcom sins" just dont put your avatar in such a risky situation when you can be stuck in the corner. For situation in serpermeru the best option is to run around and check chests until you will find flask to knockout enemies as these flasks do not trigger attacks from others so take out sorcerers with it. Also near wheel of pain in this city there is always chest with rope in it so...

  • @thorwulfx1
    @thorwulfx1 Місяць тому +1

    The two bugs I run into most often are 1) My character's legs going all wonky when I get off a mount; 2) The classic game crash when I put a helmet on a thrall. I haven't gone through the mesh myself (at least in a long time), but I used to get stuck in rhino heads all the time. My thralls fall through the mesh somewhat frequently while parked. Getting trapped and stunlocked by human enemies is a real issue, even if there's no specific glitch involved. It becomes necessary to figure out new goals or rules for playthroughs after a while. Whether it's building in new places, not building, using a different weapon that you're not used to...it takes something to keep it fun.

    I vote go again, CE is one of my favorite games and your content is great, the bugs suck, the worst for me is when the game freezes while saving on single player and the game file gets corrupted although that hasnt happened to me for about 3 months. I would have checked the chest at westwall prison before going after the sorceror (got a Dalinsia at level 6 by getting truncheon and rawhide binding from there), but beware the nomad challenge should end if your follower dies.

    I am also in the process of a personal challenge similar to yours with the same objective; which is to escape the exiled lands. I am doing it on a server that is devilishly difficult, xp is at 0.5, damage against npc is at 0.5 and damage received at 1.5 for both you and the thralls, there is no extra xp, I don't do permadeath because the game gives me reasons not to, meth kamoses is a talking head, there are zombies that I revive and a platform to recover and revive as well as this merchant who tells you in a somber voice ... strange things happen here and those who should be dead wander around ... so if others mock death, so do I. Only I don't use any spawn point other than my bed, I don't use sleeping bags, only the bed, regardless of where I die, and so far I've only died twice. The idea is that it's at most that, since it's not viable to go around dying every two minutes, and I always try to get to 60 without dying, and I usually achieve it.

    As for bugs -- you pretty much say it. The worst is when I die because of a bug. Oh, and worse, when I die and lose my best thrall because of such bug. The sorcery to recall my body is a band-aid that lacks the sticky glue. The rest, I can groan and shrug off with a breath of resignation -- it's just not gonna change. - However, this is one of the reaons why I will not purchase Dune: Awakening.

    Right now, I think CE is nothing more than the alpha test for Dune. I don't think Funcom really gives a shit about the game or giving customers what they want.

But I bet you'll see it day one of Dune, and it will be completely bug free because they're using CE customers as practice for Dune customers.

    Maybe some purists say "you died, game over" but me, I say you didn't die, the game world glitched. Doesn't count.
    I guess if the server setting is permadeath then the server would count you as dead, but if there is no server setting and you're enforcing it on honor, I'd still say this doesn't count.
