WORK IN PROGRESS BUILD AND DOCUMENT

This is a work in progress build and as such, neither of the changes and implementations found in it are final. Neither is the patchnotes document, which will be updated, corrected and completed over the Testlive period to better reflect the work in progress nature of this build.

Greetings, Exiles of the Testlive lands!

As we steadily advance towards the full launch of Isle of Siptah, we’re now ready to give you an early taste of our upcoming new content drop. Update 2.4 will expand the available land mass on Siptah to the South, with three new biomes full of new sights, adventures and dangers for experienced Siptah players and newcomers alike.

Siptah_grey_ones_ruins3840×2160 3.6 MB

On the east side, the savannah, a massive open area hosting rich wildlife and the ruins of an old capital of the Grey Ones, with a secret lurking within its confines. On the west side, the ashlands, the soot-covered volcanic grounds once inhabited by the First Men and now only hosting the remnants of this once-proud civilization. And in the center, the floodlands, an in-between area with tall cliff formations and lush and overgrown plains that will be prime locations for builders and adventurers alike.
These new lands continue the work established in our previous update, adding to the Isle of Siptah 47 new NPC camps of varying sizes with repeatable activities, trainers and surprises.

To couple the release of these new biomes, we have also worked on a series of optimizations and improvements to the lighting and skyboxes of Siptah, to make these new landmasses shine like never before on Conan Exiles!

Ashlands_ancient_ruins3840×2160 2.87 MB

Another new addition coming with this update is a new religion! Zath the Spider-God joins the pool of available religions in Conan Exiles both on the Exiled Lands and the Isle of Siptah. Summon Zath and a swarm of its children to bring terror and destruction to your enemies! New NPCs, placeables and items have been added to the game for those who chose Zath as their deity.

New with this update is also our new Character Transfer feature! With these new options you can now transfer your character between Official servers, between unofficial servers, or from an Official server to an unofficial server keeping your name and appearance, level and all items in your backpack. Even between the Exiled Lands and Isle of Siptah! (Please note: This is currently a W.I.P. feature and it’s not fully implemented in this initial Testlive build - we are still testing the feature so please use at your own discretion. To transfer to or from the Isle of Siptah, ownership of the DLC Expansion pack is required)

Along with these new additions, we have also worked on a series of oft-requested improvements and rebalancing aimed at PVP combat as well as other systems. Tons of new performance optimizations, a myriad of animation improvements and many UI and quality of life additions, along with many other fixes, complete this package. Update 2.4 is one of the most ambition content updates we have released to date, and we can’t wait to let you try this early build. If you do, please share your feedback with us and report any issues you might have!

Thank you for your ongoing support, and stay safe!


IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING MODS

Please remember that updates can mess with your installed mods. We suggest taking a backup of your current database before updating to any new patch if you have mods installed. For the purposes of testing, we recommend not using any mods when playing on Testlive.

Separate TestLive Product on Steam

We heard your input regarding the inconvenience with having to switch back and forth between the main game and our TestLive servers. To make it easier for you and because we really value your testing and feedback, we added a separate product for the TestLive server on Steam.

If you own Conan Exiles on Steam, you should now see a separate Product called “Conan Exiles - Testlive Client” in your library which gives you the option to install an additional instance of the game specifically for the TestLive servers. Please be aware that this will prompt you for a full additional installation.

We are aware that not everyone wants to install or has space for two full installations. For those of you who don’t want to play through the additional TestLive Client, you can still access the TestLive servers through our old method.

2021/04/06 23:20 CET

Added extra clarification to the server transfer feature:
Server transfers will work in this order: Official PVP → Official PVEC → Official PVE → Unofficial
Meaning, you can transfer between the same level or to a level below. But not from below to above. Meaning, a PVP player can transfer to another Official PVP server, or to any other mode. An Official server PVE player, on the other hand, can transfer to another PVE Official server or to an unofficial server, but not to an Official PVEC or PVP server.


2021/04/06 22:40 CET

Fixed a typo:
In combat:

This change varies depending on the type of bow, with the Reach of the Red Mother having received the most significant increase.


2021/04/06 21:55 CET

Fixed typo in the addition below.
“or from an Official server to an unofficial server”

Reason: It’s been a long day alright.


2021/04/06 21:40 CET

Added clarification for the Server Transfer feature.
Under New Additions (new text in bold):

  • (Currently W.I.P. - we are still testing the feature so please use at your own discretion) Added new character transfer feature, from an Official server to another Official server, from an unofficial server to another unofficial server, or from an Official server to an unofficial server, from or to the Exiled Lands and Siptah (Unofficial servers will be able to disable this feature if they desire). We will release an announcement closer to the full launch of this update where we will provide more details about this feature.

2021/04/06 19:30 CET

Added Known issue for clarification:

  • The character server transfer feature is still W.I.P. and actively worked on and not fully implemented in this initial Testlive build - we are still testing the feature so please use at your own discretion. (2021/04/06 19:30 CET Known issue for clarification)

2021/04/06 14:37 CET

  • You can now interact with doors, gates and other items while mounted


almost 3 years ago - Ignasis - Direct link

Please note:
Server transfer is a feature still being worked on. We do not recommend testing it at this moment, as many things can and will go wrong.
We are actively working on it and will make it fully operational during the Testlive period up to the final release. Until then, be aware. :sweat_smile:

almost 3 years ago - Ignasis - Direct link

We’ve added a clarification to the patchnotes, regarding the server transfer feature.

:point_down:

Edit: Also mentions in the introduction/flair text.
TLDR: You will be able to transfer between Official servers, either from or to Exiled Lands/Siptah. This will also be a toggleable option for private servers. You’ll be able to transfer between Private servers that opt into this feature, or from an Official to an unofficial (that has opted in). But NOT from an unofficial to an Official one.

New correction,

halp

almost 3 years ago - Ignasis - Direct link

Another clarification,

Server transfers will work in this order:

PVP → PVEC → PVE → Unofficial

Meaning, you can transfer between the same level or to a level below. But not from below to above. Meaning, a PVP player can transfer to another Official PVP server, or to any other mode. An Official server PVE player, on the other hand, can transfer to another PVE Official server or to an unofficial server, but not to an Official PVEC or PVP server.

There will be a lengthy announcement with all the details about this feature once we’re nearing the launch, as we mentioned in the patchnotes.

almost 3 years ago - Ignasis - Direct link

The thrall cap feature was introduced more than a year ago in the game and has been available for server admins and SP players since then. Enabling it on official servers is a setting change that would require nothing but a server restart. This is why it is not included in the patchnotes.

However, once we have concrete information on the exact date it is going to be enabled, we will release an announcement post with all the details in advance, including the final number per server type as well as any other useful information.

The initial plan is to have it enabled once, or shortly after, 2.4 is released. But we’re still discussing internally the fine details to every aspect mentioned above.

almost 3 years ago - Hugo - Direct link

Greetings Exiles,

We truly appreciate all the feedback provided so far for this TestLive build.

We’ve also just released the first revision for Patch 2.4, which includes plenty of fixes and tweaks!
