Conan's Battle Pass Items Returning? | Q&A Recap 

@@Eradicati0nn to be honest, I wouldn’t like the reintroduction of old battle passes. Maybe Fortnite is to blame for the exclusivity entitlement of owning a battle pass that expires. It would make me feel as if my effort to be able to complete the pass would be wasted and I do like the feeling of owning exclusives too since I was there when it first started.

Absolutely. My clan mate keeps rubbing the ghost horse in my face......he doesn't even like horses

I also have all the BattlePass stuff. I too like knowing I may have content that others who did not take the time to play have. The old BP content could come back as Bazaar stuff, or as rewards from top-tier Purges? I think that there's a very good chance that the impact of the Dune game is more along the lines of how many Modders, Streamers, players and interest from the Gaming community have (and will?) move from Conan Exiles to the Dune game as it rolls through early testing, etc. Players always freak out that the Coanan player pool is 'disappearing'. Well, of course. Players can only play one game at a time, and there are several big games out there right now. This is always the case.

Yes , definitively , i would love the battle pass back !!!

They could of go with method that 343 did with Halo Infinite, where they are always be there, incase you finish the latest battlepass and use left over crom coins from battle pass to work on previous season ones in your spare time.

I was a bit mixed at first myself, I like the idea of exclusivity, but idk if I like it for decorations, armor, building pieces etc. It's one thing to have an exclusive weapon skin in something like COD that effectively doesn't really matter, but for stuff with more function, I lean a little more towards it becoming available for everyone

Thank you! Someone who is not obsessed with exclusivity!

@@Eradicati0nn I personally DESPISE exclusivity. There is only one reason for it, to have something no one else gets to have, but when you think about it, thousands of others have it, you didn't get anything unique, but it does keep everyone from having it. Just sort of divides the community. I DO understand the appeal of "Well i was there for XYZ event" or "I'm a long time player" or even just "I have something few people have which makes me more attached to this game" But i don't think those are worth the majority of other players feeling like they got shafted. ESPECIALLY with items that can effect gameplay. >..> still i understand it... even if i hate it =D

@@thecommenter9678 I like the idea, but there's definitely different levels of exclusivity. Completing events or difficult in-game challenges warrant exclusivity to some degree IMO, paid features do feel a little less important as exclusives seeing as the only barrier is payment and attendance I guess, though I'm not fully sold on that idea I definitely support keeping the pre-order bonuses exclusive though, plus I wouldn't be surprised if there's legal precedent for not making pre-order bonuses available to everyone

It really depends on how they re-integrate them. The white Arcane pieces were a steal but some of the others remixes have been predictably expensive. That being said, the devs haven't decided how to re-implement them yet and in what form, hopefully we might be surprised

Yeah I'm leaning that way myself, had the rewards been something inconsequential like calling cards or gun camos in COD then I probably wouldn't have cared too much either way, but seeing as a fair few of the rewards are not only functional but could be pretty important for roleplayers, and are a bit more integral to player identity and style than something like the aforementioned

​@Eradicati0nn I missed out on a ton of emotes from the age of war chapter 1s battlepass as a role player. I would love to see them return in some fashion so I can roleplay with my gf and clan.

Thank you! This one came out pretty good tbh, I didn't really plan anything out and just had a mental image. Sometimes that works, other times it goes horribly wrong 😂

@@Eradicati0nn LOL for me, horribly wrong is more of a standard. I try to make interesting structures and have watched all of your (and others) 'how to' vids multiple times for inspiration. Unless I steal a build and tweak it, they never come out as interesting architecture. Functional, yes. Interesting, beautiful, creative, very rarely.

DLC packs were definitely a much better deal, a bargain, perhaps too much of one. From all accounts I've heard, the DLC system just wasn't supporting development enough, and I don't think you can really separate the Bazaar from the overall vision of trying to add free gameplay content to the game. Siptah was pretty much a failure because, even though it did add new gameplay content, the requirement to charge seems to have reduced purchases and really split the player base. Personally I think if they priced low, they'd probably move more units, but that's just from my perspective without knowing any of the actual financials. For me, the game was pretty boring prior to the Ages system, it felt the only actual movement was the occasional small update or a DLC pack. I'd personally rather have the game actively developed with free features, though the Bazaar can be vastly improved, it's probably just a long march approach unfortunately

Thank you Jim! Always trying to do my best 🙏

That's the pre-order bonus right? That's confirmed to never be re-released, though I wouldn't be surprised if they maybe remixed it or made something inspired by a similar style. It wouldn't surprise me if there's also some sort of legal precedent for not re-selling pre order bonuses

Luckily there's mods that add those to the game. I'd love for them to be added in as well because pre-order bonuses are lame and their practice should have ended a long time ago.

It was dropped fairly quietly unfortunately, but putting it on the game launcher probably helped out for the PC folks

Agreed, I like the white Arcane pieces but they're definitely a bit more niche than the black/grey Arcane pieces, they are a lot more flexible

The devs themselves mentioned it a while ago as something they were working on fixing, all I can think is that it must be a very complex issue. There's been a few updates since then and no fix has come through yet, and I imagine they're trying to be careful to not break people's bases like last time 😩

Hopefully they continue to do at least some communication in this form. Recording a video like this probably takes roughly the same time or longer than a dev blog, but it feels a lot more sincere with this method

where did you get that rumor when we allready have a event on the game now

Honestly, if they just make those battle passes available to buy and complete at one's own leisure that would be the most fair. The exclusiveness being tied to FOMO kinda bugs me a bit because it feels like a punishment for newer players and those that didn't have the bandwidth to just throw out money at the time (even if it is only $10). I prefer people having rarities based upon perhaps those initial pre-order backings and also in-game work and achievements - having a thing because you put in the effort and skill to get it is vastly more rewarding, or to show off you were there on day 1 supporting the game.

While i understand where youre coming from, i wasnt playing the game during sorcery 1 and 2. Had i known those battlepasses would of been gone forever, id have certainly started playing again. Even if it was just to level those passes and nothing else at that time. Everytime i log in i kick myself in the ass that i missed those first 2 passes, and it sucks not having some of those building, weapon and armor options. 8 think its better for everyone if every item is available. Gone forever twitch drops are an issue too. Atleast cycle back in old twitch drops from time to time. I dont like FOMO

@@einarr7301 agreed, nothing is taken away from players if they add them to the bazar..."exclusivity" is just vanity. I got those items for cheap and much earlier than others, I guess, that is "exclusive" enough for me.

Thanks Piotr! Glad you enjoyed

I'm sure he talks once he has finished a build and had the audio play over the video

Wintreizes beat me to it, but yeah, this video would be a mess if I were talking and building at the same time. I tend to record the audio first then do the build as I have a rough idea of the time needed to cover it, I'm terrible with focusing and trying to talk at the same time, it's all "umm" and "y'know" 😂 No blueprint for this build though, completely off the top of my head

@@Eradicati0nn you sayin if you talkin and buildin at the same time you would mess up tht base but my question is when you done witht he video do you take the base down

@@latestaff9748 They usually get torn down, depending on what it is. I still have The Outlook from Settlers Season 2 and I probably won't delete it, but most other builds get removed

@@Eradicati0nn oh ok

Idk if I'd describe it as a money grab myself, I see it as an unfortunate consequence of the devs trying to do far too much. With a bigger team or more resources, they probably could have sustained a battle pass and make the necessary (and pretty large) improvements to making sure updates aren't broken and actually have good content. I really enjoyed the BP, more than I thought I would tbh, but I think the actual stability of the game is far more important Also, which waterfall deco in particular? It doesn't ring a bell, but a lot of the deco all blurs into one sometimes for me 😂

@@Eradicati0nn I really feel many bazaar items are way overprized , considering your reviews you often agree with that..... And yeah , i will miss the battle pass , it was something to do and it had nice rewards...... I like to build in game , i find the resources , i gather them , i build , all in game , single player , no build mode or whatever , foolishly don't even know how to activate that....... This resulted in my last base , which is nothing short of gigantic (: It just naturally came to be and grew with more idea's and stuff i gained to build..... So if i see a building item , or decorative item , i will mostly want it , be that knowledge , battle pass or bazaar..... Now i got all knowledge , and with the battle pass gone , that leaves the bazaar only , which is a shame....... I feel it limits the possibilities.... I don't know what the item is called or when it was introduced , but i am guessing t was a battle pass or bazaar item , since i do not have it........ I think i saw it some time ago , about a year , in someone's video , maybe yours or Wak's , can't remember.......... It is this waterfall cascading down into a a rectangular basin , and since my mega base is build on the cliffs in between Sepermeru and the Dead City i have the perfect spots for such an item (: My base has used all available space , i just use new items to upgrade or beautify what's already there..... And i just know that this item would look amazing in my set up........ Ps. Many thanks for your video's , always love em , another thing keeping my love for the game going , i done everything , yet i love the game still so much , that i do not want to move on..... Conan Exiles is for me really a Top 3 best game of all time..... I wanna stick around longer , it is always a great experience in one or the other way...... Pps. I was thinking to make a video of my base , maybe my whole building progression , for all buildings i have build still stand , and throw the video's on RU-vid for others to enjoy , as i enjoy your and others their content.......

Stop. Just stop.

"Boo hoo they can buy with money what I already bought with money"

They NEVER said that BP items wouldn’t come back. They stressed that they would. I’ve watched all their livestreams since age of sorcery.

They definitely said that they would have all content come back at some point and you had to catch it when it did.

As someone who bought and completed all the battle passes, I would disagree!

Absolutely brain rot take. "Wah, I bought a cosmetic before someone else could, they should *NEVER* be able to have that, wah!"
