Conan Exiles recently received Update 2.8 for its test servers. The changes will only reach the live build after thorough testing. This update includes new features and several bug fixes.
In this update, players no longer have to spam the join button when they want to join a full server. They will automatically be put in a queue and when a spot is free, they'll join instantly.
Followers usually sit in the base and do absolutely nothing. So, in this update, the developers have added a new feature where players can assign over 50 different emotes to their followers. Players can have their followers greet others or even taunt them if they feel like it.
The developers have also fixed an issue with the game where it would crash after the player starts the game in co-op. Additionally, they have fixed several other crashing issues to improve the game's stability.
