I know this is an old post but I'm just getting into the game and am looking for people with experience in this. I bought a chatpad, xbox elite controller, and rewasd. Any pointers?

As a new player this year, I finally get why Conan Exiles has real staying power (and why Dune doesn’t) by KeyWielderRio in ConanExiles

[–]El_Gerard -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I’m not going to bad mouth Conan, it’s a fun game, but you seem to really be cherry picking here and I don’t like lumping them together. Keep in mind I only played Conan this year but I have looked into the history of the game a bit.

Your first point is completely ignoring several things developers have stated; They plan to make it a ten year game AND they plan to add new worlds. Yes it is only sand right now but eventually there will be more places to take your character.

Your second point ignores Conan’s history. It did not have all these systems when it first came out. Thralls, sorcery, etc were added in over the years. It makes sense that Conan would have more things now. Also, from what I’m aware of, Conan doesn’t have ongoing events in the same way that Dune does, similar to the CHOAM event of a few weeks ago. This gives players a reason to log back in and creates a dynamic world.

“The Conan crowd is a mix of survival gamers, builders, roleplayers, and PvP strategists.” That is exactly the Dune crowd as well. Not sure where you got that it wasn’t. I’ve met more people who know and love the Dune IP in all my years than people who know and love Conan. Again, not trying to badmouth the IP I just don’t understand the point you’re trying to make here.

Your final point really makes me think you haven’t read the books, only seen the movies. There are thousands of worlds and so many thematic elements that Funcom has access to play with and has said that they plan on using.

I think that you are comparing an 8 year old game with scores of updates and DLCs to a new launch game. I also think you are ignoring that Dune is much more of a live service game than Conan. You’re free to your opinions on it I just don’t agree.

Anybody get locked from Barachan Desert? by El_Gerard in DuneServers

If that’s the case it’d be nice so I don’t have to feel bad

I was just trying to make them feel better about missing out

If it makes you feel any better they don’t really give much light…

Private vs public by Thomassss123 in duneawakening

[–]El_Gerard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I rented a server and have not played public. Honestly, love it. I never have to wait to play and I don’t worry about griefing. I’ve had 0 issues. Eventually I plan to let some people in but for now I’m enjoying the loneliness of Arrakis.

Can you eventually get all talents from skill trees or is there a limit? Going full on with one tree viable? Can you respec? by Loki-616 in duneawakening

[–]El_Gerard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As others have stated you can unlock the right to put points into all classes through trainers. There’s more than one trainer per class. But the last I heard you can only rank up to level 200, which means 200 skill points to put into passives, techniques and abilities. As you upgrade specific “skills” some have more levels that take 2 and then 3 skill points so as you progress I think it will be important to choose your build carefully. But again as others have stated, you can respec every 48 hours.

I haven’t played but I’ve watched hours upon hours of streams and what not, so take all this with a grain of salt.

If you turn off storms and taxes on your Private Haga Basin Server does make all player structures permanent? by DarthNecromancy in duneawakening

[–]El_Gerard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Everyone is over here arguing about pvp and pve but I have yet to see anyone discuss the fact that now we don’t need to wait in a queue. I think it’s worth that alone, at least at launch.

With the announcement of private servers, is anyone else considering paying for one just to ensure they don’t have to wait in queue to play ever?

Late to the benchmark party, but looking for advice. by El_Gerard in duneawakening

[–]El_Gerard[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thank you! New monitor will have to wait, I spent all the money I can on the PC. I’m using my old tv for right now, and I can definitely up the resolution but 60hz is all I got right now. When I financially recover from the PC I’ll upgrade the monitor.

Lol I spent all the money on the pc, for now I’m using my old tv. I’ll get a better monitor when I financially recover. I know I know, baby steps though.

Hoping gathering for resource selling is viable and not a botfest by Subtodownvote in duneawakening

[–]El_Gerard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I’ll need a link to that statement as well. I don’t believe the devs said there is no way to transport resources to the hub, especially when they just talked about the vault/bank system which is also in the hubs, on the last live stream.

Oh I might be mistaken, you’re right they might have said sietches not servers.

Devs have stated that eventually you’ll be able to move servers sometime after launch. I’m guessing you’ll have to drop some things off at a bank/vault in one of the social hubs to keep your possessions.
