It’s hard to imagine barbarians without gigantic weapons that take a whole lot of muscle to swing. So it’s good to see Conan Exiles introduce massive two-handed swords (which come in everything from stone to starmetal). While these weapons won’t be available until launch, the team is planning to add back in sprinting with weapons and tools in hand sooner than that.
The team said that getting Conan Exile’s gold disc finalized is of maximum priority, after which its attention will turn to the day one patch. Work is being done to hit requirements from Microsoft and Sony, shaping up the new perk system, and of course, making sure the hyped volcano and jungle regions are ready to go.
Funcom said not everything will be available on Day One: “The new combat paradigm will roll out on PC before May 8th. Project Content Rebalance will hopefully make it to PC players pre-launch, but may be moved back depending on when the work is finished.”
