You can create your own public server for people to play with!
Intro: This tutorial will be using GameServers.com, Since it is the official server provider for Conan Exiles
Step 1: Go to http://www.GameServers.com and click on the "Conan Exiles" icon under "Popular Game Servers"
Step 2: Choose the server options:
- Tip: You can also apply a coupon if available. Current one that works is "2017SALE"
- Slots means the max number of players that can be on your server at any time. Your Conan Exiles Server can have between 20-70 slots.
- The location is where the server will be physically located. Generally, the closer people are to the server, the better ping they get. If you want to set up a server in the USA, any U.S. location will do
Step 3: follow the instructions to pay the bill, and the host should do the rest to set up the server. Once the server is set up, you will be able to log in to the control panel to set up options such as server name, and to restart the server, etc.
Step 4: The control panel consists of several sections. The main section is the "info" section. From here you can see the general server info such as the IP address, as well as restarting the server. You can also set a daily restart if you want to refresh it every day.
Step 5: The Config section lets you easily set all the variables of the server. Just edit it and click on "Submit". This will also automatically restart the server if that option is checked. A server restart is required for the new settings to take effect on your server.
Step 6: You can also rename your server! From the drop down, choose file: Sever Name and input the new server name.
Congratulations! Your server is set up. You and your friends and anyone else who wants to join should now be able to see it in the server selection screen:
