This idea was considered in early stages of the thrall leveling system, but would turn to be quite taxing to the server, totally defeating the main purpose of the cap in the first place.

Downloading an official server database won’t be an option due to privacy issues.
Should you decide not to adapt to the change, we’d recommend joining or starting in a private server with that cap lifted or modified to suit your playstyle.

Updated main topic with links to the stream and the recap put together by @Multigun.

Hey @Bodin

Thanks for the feedback. We’ll send a suggestion to our team to put on a suppressor on those trunks.

That one we’re aware too. Our team is looking into it.
Thanks for the feedback

Then if we understood correctly the issue at hand, it seems to be the limitation a listen server faces when simulating the world as pointed out above. As frustrating as it can be, it’s a necessary evil to keep the performance of a single player server.
Apologies for the inconvenience.

Hey there,

There’s a procedure for these kind of reports against players and clans. Publicly in the forums certainly isn’t one of them, as stated in our community guidelines which you can consult here:

Hey @Soulbound

It’s an obsolete setting that remains from early iterations during early launch. Our team is aware and will remove this and other legacy settings in a future update.
Thanks for the feedback.

Hey @bedwin

We’re aware of this issue and our team is looking into ways to mitigate this.
For the time being, consider it a fair price to pay for having them on a life of slavery.
Thanks for the feedback.

Please continue any discussions about this topic on this thread.

There’s a known issue with it and fixed internally. Will come with the next update.

We’ve merged all topics covering this issue into this one. Please continue discussing this topic but remember to be nice to each other and keep the feedback constructive.

Hey @Hexsing

We’re sorry to see you go and hope you find what you’re looking for in your next gaming endeavors.
Should you decide to come revisit us in the future, we’d be happy to have you among us once again and hopefully you’ll find something new that will keep you engaged in our game.

Hey everybody,

Since we announced the new follower leveling system and limit, you’ve all been sending us your feedback through different threads and sections, so in order to keep all discussions focused we’ll merge them into this thread. This way we can also provide updates and address the feedback efficiently.
Seeing that there’s some details that might have been overlooked, we’d like to invite you all to read the official announcement here:

Hey @thdsw

Apologies for the late response.
It looks like a problem with outdated hardware. We’d recommend at least upgrading to 16gb of RAM.

Hey @Tyderan

Welcome to our community.
You mention this is happening when connecting to the servers via VPN. Does this connection drop happen when not connecting with a VPN?

Hey @RRS

With a spawn speed multiplier of 10x it’s not uncommon to see how fast NPCs will respawn like in your case.
Additionally, in single player, based on how the game world is simulated, when entering a new area chunk it will be, most of the time, rebuilt based on some calculations (contrary to what a dedicated server would do, which is simulate all the map all the time).
To fully get rid of that occurrence, the only way to do it would be what @Jim1 suggested and start a dedicated server. In case you’d be interested, you can import your single player database and start a server on your own machin...
