Difficulty setting?

[hamm damme]

Hello all,
after some hours put into this game and dam, I havent died sooo many times sooo quickly in any game! Even with a pesky stone sword and wood shield there is no chance of successfully getting through multiple enemies....it always turns out with me running off with emus, hyenas, and some other enemy chasing me until I jump into the river and escape...not even to mention by the time i upgraded to said rubbish sword the enemy player have 2-3 people around there campsite(im playing single player).no chance of taking them on.....beginning to regret the purchase, awesome graphics, idea etc but combat is meant to be the main focus here! being early access im hoping some gameplay tweaks are in the works..
thoughts?

If you play solo like me, use admin tools to make it easier. Game will get better, before that, have fun "cheating". Build base, get thralls etc. Lvl at least as much that you can make bed and spawn there every time.

These setting do exist in the game.

PlayerDamageMultiplier=1.000000
PlayerDamageTakenMultiplier=1.000000
MinionDamageMultiplier=1.000000
MinionDamageTakenMultiplier=1.000000
NPCDamageMultiplier=1.000000
NPCDamageTakenMultiplier=1.000000

However they do not appear to be working at current.

So eventually they should get implmented and then the game can be scaled to be more solo friendly (same as Ark).

Yes this is a big problem; I have changed those settings to either end of the scale and nothing has any actual effect in the game. I have been trying to scale the game to single/duo play but am unable to since none of these settings change the actual values being called. If there is another config file somewhere which we need to change as well can a dev please let us know? Changing the values using the prompt in game (~) also does not change anything. Any help would be soooooo appreciated <3 Sara

turn down your aggro range an you wont aggro so manyenemies at once.

Kill Imps and Gazelles, Baby Shalebacks too, and just gather stuff in general until you level up some. Bow helps too, I can kill a hyena in three shots with it. It takes some doing but you should be alright, just need to play it safe. Also keep Stamina so you can fight, nothing worse than running somewhere and getting stuck in a fight when you just blew all your Stamina running so you can't hit the guy.

You regret the purchase because its a hard game? I like the "New Generation" of players. If its hard its a bad game, if you have to level up its a bad game. instant action and killing all as a god in a few minutes OP = good game.

Scarface said it already, Git gud ^^

I started with single/co op play and its your world/server and many settings you can do as admin. leveling and gearing up and you will see, its going to be "easy" very quick. Meanwhile i play on a private server and killing grey rhinos with 4-5 hits with my steelsword and receiving 0 dmg.
on other parts, if im charging in like a blind jerk, my a..s get kicked very fast ^^ so it stay as a challenging game.

I regret the purchase because the fighting mechanics are not what I was expecting from a warrior based game. In a game like conan if the fighting is not spot on whats the point of it...'new generation' huh, i been playing video games since the late 80s mate so Ive kind of got a clue about these things...

Your equipment is too weak for these enemies. Get better gear and try again.
