PC Exiles, hello!

The day is here and we’re not only bringing you a substantial number of fixes and quality of life updates, we’ve also added new types of Purges, a new world boss and have done several balancing passes on NPCs and craft...

Thanks, we definitely will let them know :)

I would like a headsup or anything that the dev team is aware of the huge t3 building spam problem. (vaults, vaults, vaults, foundation terrasses that put macchu picchu to shame)

Our team is aware of this behavior and they're looking into ways of limiting it, but we have nothing more concrete to share about it at this moment. :)

So, now it will be consistent, and will be able to target any bases, even lollypop ones?

It should. :)

Will it appear only when players are online?

That would depend on server settings.

This is one of the many common bugs related to "you should be able to place piece but you can't"

Some of these instances should be addressed in the current Testlive build. If you want you can check them out now or wait until they come to live. If there are still issues with building QoL please let us know via our usual communication channels 😊

Ok, that's something i missed in patch notes. Sadly, have no time to level up and test stuff on testlive (and actually i have levelup process, why can't we just have all on test servers?), but since live patch will be released next week, i quess we will see if the amount of people with spears will be at least equal ...

Let me answer you point by point:

"purge updates" are listed in your "future patches" almost since official release, sometimes you mention something about purge in patch notices, but it's still almost never appears on any servers, and when it does, it's often utterly broken, for example - ending withotu spawning creeps, or creeps unable to do anything?

That's fixed on Testlive, which you can either test right now by accessing the Testlive branch on Steam or check it out in our Testlive patchnotes that we linked above. We reworked the Purge mechanic by making it more reliable, challenging and rewarding. The feedback we got back from our community has been really positive and we feel it’s ready to be deployed live soon.

You say "building updates" just as you listed it in one of the previous patches, but all the building system related bugs are still exists, and even spikes take more than minute to load.

Hey u/kinghenry,

We're in no way trying to "f*ck with you". We thought we had everything ready to go, but ran into unexpected issues that needed to be fixed. We're working on getting the patch ready and we'll announce it once we're good to go.

Hey there,

We have no plans of abandoning Conan Exiles. We have three major patches on our Testlive branch that add a ton of fixes and additions, as well as a revamp of the Unnamed City with plans to expand on that even further.

We also have a few exciting new additions planned, but as of now our near future scheduling is focused on fixing and improving the game. Here you can see our current schedule:

Hey there,

We're still committed to make Conan Exiles the best it can be. We've released three major patches on Testlive that will make it to live on all platforms once we're done ironing out any issues our community is reporting in our forums.

Hey there,

It's an issue we're aware of. Our team is looking into it.

It's also available in our Trello board:

The fan Discord does still exist, but the link deprecated. We'll get a new one up there ASAP :)

Hey there,

G-Portal suffered an outage in one of its nodes, which is likely the cause for this issue. It should be resolved by now.
