Hey folks! We have a new patch out for the Testlive branch with several Purge and UI fixes, as well as several quality of life improvements.
Patch Highlights
New and Improved VOIPWith this Testlive patch we're rolling out our new and improved VOIP system, which should make using in-game voice chat significantly better. We hope our roleplaying community enjoys these improvements. Please test this new feature and provide us with as much detailed feedback as you can.
If you have distortion issues when talking with other players then reduce "Voice Chat" setting in audio settings to less than 80%".
Unnamed City Revamp
As detailed during our previous Conan Exiles stream, we're revamping the Unnamed City area to provide more loot and more challenge to players. This includes adding in 8 new named bosses, several minibosses, legendary armor pieces, new legendary weapons.
Bosses in the Unnamed City will also drop Fragments of Power, special items you can exchange somewhere in the Unnamed City.
The idea is to make the Unnamed City more challenging and enjoyable to play, and to give players a reason to travel to the city for loot and other goodies.
Currently Known Issues
- First selecting "Female" at character creation and then slecting "Head Options", "Face Details" or "Finalize Character" might move the camera past the player avatar, making it impossible to see your character
- Selecting "Male" at character creation might render your avatar invisible when browsing the "Face", "Hair" and "Facial Hair" options.
- The new special health-bars have a lower vertical offset than intended.
- VoIP from other players can sound distorted unless you set your Voice chat and/or master volume to 80% or less
- After putting down a placeable, the item persists. Current workaround is to climb to remove this. It will be fixed
Patch Notes
Exploit Fixes
- Fixed an issue where it was possible to gain unlimited oxygen
- Fixed an issue where fire created by a combination of orbs would damage players on unintended situations
- Fixed an issue where players could walk underwater
New Additions
- Thralls no longer use the hunger system to keep them alive. Instead, their life is terminated once a member of the clan to which they belong to has not logged into the game for two weeks (official servers). This is tied to the server setting for maximum decay time. Thralls still do gain buffs from eating food
- New Crafting station : Dismantling bench. This bench allows you to dismantle placeables, building pieces, weapons and armors
- For modders - there is now new configurators for CraftingQueue components: CraftTimeMultiplier and CraftResultMultiplier. CraftTimeMultiplier allows you control base crafting-time per station instead of/in addition to thralls. CraftResultMultiplier multiplies the output of the crafting stations (as the name implies)
- Added user interface to let players rate servers. This is currently non-functional, but will be activated in a future patch.
- A tombstone appears now on your death, marking the spot in which you died and making it easier to retrieve your inventory.
