i just want to say thank you as well! And I hope everyone does understand how many updates happen and we all are patient and can wait for you guys to get to it whenever time permits and that you could easily just stop until release! Again thank you for spending time on a game with some many updates!

I get a very odd behavior with F5 the free Crafting option.. It turns all NPCS/Monsters white/grid like as well as the player. And it only shuts off on a restart of the game.

Game has probably patched 8 more times since we posted the last trainer which probably caused some kind of f-up with the crafting option. We'll check it again when we have a chance, but this cat and mouse game can't go on much longer. Why any game company would release this high profile of a game in it's 100% broken and 10% completed state is beyond me. If your game has to patch 5-10 times a day, it's wasn't ready for release, in ANY condition, early access or not. Maybe Disney will release Star Wars The Last Jedi in 2 minute cuts each month for the next 3 years, but then change the entire previous part of the movie you already watched and charge you full price for it. Why Steam doesn't have some kind of quality control over these early access games is beyond me. I guess all they care about, along with the game devs, is the money. Who cares if it's an unplayable broker piece of sht that has to be patched every 2 hours for years, oh, unless people stop paying and start losing interest, then they can just abandon the game as they already got paid, or pretend to continue updating it so they don't have to refund anyone. The whole early access thing was an ingenious move on Valve's part, but terrible for the end users that have to deal with all of the crap after they paid full price for 10% of a broken game. I wonder if that strategy would work for us? Early access trainers that have 1 option that may or may not work, and then we release another option that may or may not work a month later and in-between we mess up all of the options that were working. I wonder if people would still buy our memberships like they continue to do Valve?

While I like that you bust your butts to get trainers out for these games. I don't expect you to keep reworking the same trainer countless times in one day/week given the fact you have to work on so many. Maybe only do one trainer update a week for an early access games. If they patch a game so often after release then we just have to wait until the following week.... I would still maintain my prem membership.

From the Devs:

A quick statement on patches
FEBRUARY 4 - COMMUNITY MANAGER (JENS ERIK)
As most of you know, we’ve long been an MMO company, our instinct has always been to patch during “Off Peak” when the least amount of players are online so we inconvenience the least amount of people.

In our rush to get fixes out to you we never really stopped to think about the fact that for Exiles we have thousands of unofficial servers (Over 9000 now) that actually require their Server Admins to get them updated. That’s our bad.

So while urgently critical fixes will still go out ASAP, we will try to be better about the timing of less critical patches going forward. Of course that means we'll be patching when more of you are online, and we know that no matter when we patch, it will be at a bad time for someone.

Thanks joining us on this adventure. Keep talking and we’ll keep listening.

-The Conan Exiles Team

Hopefully there will be less patches going forward. Fully understandable that this game is wearing the CH staff out; and thx for the amazing work.

Thank you for you guys! Good works!

It is also understandable if CH updates the trainer less frequently if the patch assault continues. The sound guy just sneezed. "Patch the game!" I just ate a giant bratwurst. "Patch the game!" etc

thank for the update and add the easy craft option guys.... if I know this game was only 10% finish I would never buy it. I was hoping for at most 50-70% finish... now I feel like I just got rip off.. I stop buying early access game long time ago, but this game is just to temping that why I fall for it.. the way they put the detail on steam sound really great, but when I start playing I'm really displease 😣

all of these emoji are how I feel about this game....
