Am very tempted to get into this.
Anyone still playing ?
Any community action ?
Has it improved much over the year ?

They’ve done a lot. I’d be playing if I weren’t studying for a promotion. I don’t know about the public servers and those problems but I’m usually on a small pop private server

Sunk 20 hrs into my single campaign, and loving it so far.
Anyone on a server that I can join ?
I'm a bit of a care bear...

I did some building a few months ago and enjoyed it.

I get a similar satisfaction out of minecraft building.

Would build on a community server if it were running.

Man this game has me hooked. I’m just playing single player right now, but I’ve already put close to 10 hours into it. I’ve got a decent sized two story house across the river from where you start kitted out with everything I need to smelt iron and tan leather. So far I managed to forge a iron broadsword and I’m now working towards replacing all of my stone tools with iron. I’m not sure what it is, but I really love these survival building games.

We need a GWJ server.

We had one, but then PUBG happened.

A GWJ server would be cool because at least you wouldn’t have to worry about someone coming along and tearing down all your hard work. I’m sticking with single player for now though because I’m really just learning the game. Once it releases it would be nice to find a coop server where people work together.

The PUBG craze makes no sense to me at all. I know it’s the hottest thing since sliced bread, but to me It just looks boring as hell. Then again I’ve never gotten into those mindless games where all you do is shoot each other until someone wins. I think I got all of that out of my system playing the Doom games in my early 20s.

Because you've not played any since Doom?

Nah, I’ve played tons of them I just don’t find it enjoyable. I mean you literally just shoot each other until someone wins, boring as hell. The only ones that really held my interest for any length of time were the Halos and original Battlefront because of the setting, and even then it didn’t last long. Honestly I find those types of games just a giant dick measuring contest to see who’s is the biggest. I already know mine is big, so no need to even bother with it.

Did you ever play the orIginal Doom, or were you even alive back then?

Edit: Just checked your Steam profile and damn dude! Over a hundred hours of gaming in two weeks! That’s more than a full work week! You are a machine, hats off.

My time played is always inflated due to being AFK. I'll have games loaded and just sitting there running in the background while i do actual work or step out for movies and dinners.

The age comment is amusing. I've been on the internet and gaming before there was 3D graphics. I used to mod and create levels for Doom. Personally i'm competitive. Military family upbringing and personal love of competition has allowed me to enjoy FPS games since day 1. They're not for everyone and most people stay away from things they discover they have not the temperment or skill to deal with.

The cool thing about PUBG is that it has brought people in who have previously declared they absolutely hate FPS type games or competitive shooters or anything PvP related and got them hooked.

i’m not sure PUBG can be called a competitive shooter since the shooting part typically comprises about 5% of the activity each match.

Cute Still most things that has you playing against other players are competitive.

It depends how you play. Drop into a hot zone and you will spend most of your time in the shooting part.

So Conan is good, yes ?

yes.

revamped combat and UI

Does this game still have slaves in it? That has been a major turn off for me.

Man I tried to get back into it playing single player and ended up overwhelmed. Gonna have to give it a real spin again to check it out.

I want this...and I don't want this.
I love skyrim,love exploring big open worlds, love alchemy and smithing, love gritty low fantasy setting......... but i didn't enjoy skyrim type melee combat and aren't into house building.
This isn't for me?

I like the exploring the most. They’ve built an interesting world with little tidbits thrown all over it. It is largely a house building world though.

If you're a fan of the world/lore of Conan it's definitely worth the time to explore and geek out.

Anyone still playing or have server suggestions?

Still playing, but it’s been a solo experience for me. I’m way too much a carebear to want to deal with griefers in the time I put in on the game.

Blacksheep, can you tell us what life on a PVE server is like? are there dungeons you need other players to help delve into?

If I had been in any of the others other than the first one they implemented, I could tell you. After getting back into it from a long hiatus, I’m still relearning the game. I do know I can do the first dungeon solo, even if I have to cheese the boss a bit

Launch day is here!

Now that it's out of early access I'll probably get it during a sale. How viable is the game if you're playing single player or solo?
