Based on community feedback I decided to prioritize the alpha one testing phase and forego the castle siege Apoc testing until after Alpha One. This is a riskier development path, but demonstrating the mmorpg core systems became higher priority.[1] – Steven Sharif

We have a lot of work ahead of us. In 2020, we will be inviting you into the Alpha One test phase where you will get to experience the systems and mechanics of the MMORPG we have all been waiting for. We are excited for all of the data this will provide us with and cannot wait to make the iterations necessary to create the MMORPG of our dreams. The Alpha One experience will not be under NDA, so our glorious community will be able to watch along as our Alpha One testers take their first steps into Verra.[2] – Steven Sharif

The Ashes of Creation release schedule is subject to change.[3]

In 2020, you can look forward to new blogs on classes, node types, freehold buildings and equipment. As well as, more in-depth videos that showcase a whole host of systems our Alpha One players will be experiencing in their testing.[2] – Steven Sharif

Ashes of Creation early access packages:

Ashes of Creation

Ashes of Creation (AoC) ist ein MMORPG in der Entwicklung, das in einer offenen Welt der hohen fantasie spielt.[34]

Ashes of Creation ist ein MMORPG in der Entwicklung, das in einer Welt der hohen fantasie spielt, in der die Entscheidungen der Spieler die Welt um sie herum formen und gestalten werden.[34]

Ashes of Creation ist eine einzigartige Interpretation des MMO-Erlebnisses. Unsere Weltstruktur ist dynamisch und darauf ausgerichtet, auf die Handlungen unserer Spieler zu reagieren. Städte werden aufsteigen und wieder fallen, ihre Bevölkerung basiert auf der Geschichte der Welt, wie sie die Spieler erschaffen. Quests werden freigeschaltet, wenn sich die Völker versammeln, ihre Bedürfnisse wachsen und Geheimnisse freigeschaltet werden.[35]

Da die NSC-Struktur der Welt in Echtzeit aufgebaut wird, haben die Spieler die Möglichkeit, das zu zerstören, was sie geschaffen haben und ebnen den Weg für neue Entwicklungen, neue Bevölkerungsgruppen und echte Veränderungen. Politische Auseinandersetzungen und Intrigen werden eine sehr reale Rolle in der Struktur deiner Welt spielen.[35]

Vorbei sind die Tage der statischen Welten, der Wandel ist hier, um zu bleiben.[35]

Alpha-1

Alpha-1 is a testing release of the Ashes of Creation MMORPG.[39] Alpha-1 will test:

Alpha-2

Alpha-2 is the Persistent alpha.[21][22] This release is expected to include the following:

Beta testing

The Beta-1 and Beta-2 testing phases of Ashes of Creation will be short.[53]

The game should be pretty much done (at beta stage) and final polish and stuff like that being put in. We don't want people to get totally burnt out on the game before we actually release. So once we get to the beta phases it should be short and sweet.[53] – Jeffrey Bard

Beta testing of Ashes of Creation (the MMORPG) will be closed.[54]

Head start

Head start icon.[28]

Head start grants early access one or two days prior to the live launch of Ashes of Creation for crowdfunding backers at the Founder level and above.[55]

The point of head start is twofold: One for testing, making sure that the live launch servers pre-wipe are good; and then Two, it's a way to stagger the population move into the game. Because if you have servers with 10,000 concurrent player capability and you have everyone logging in at the exact same time, that is a problem I've never seen an MMO tackle successfully, ever.[56] – Steven Sharif

Headstart Server

The number of head start servers is estimated to be three. This is subject to change.[57]

  • There will be an OCE headstart server.[58]

Einschränkungen beim Headstart

The game functionality is limited during the head start period so that players cannot decide the world-scape earlier than others.[59]

  • During the head start, the node system will be deactivated.
  • Head start specific servers are also planned.
  • It will not be possible to secure player housing during the headstart period due to the deactivation of the node system.

NDA

Beteiligung

Alpha and Beta participation is expected to grow with the sale of pre-order packs.[62]

Server wipes

Alpha and Beta servers will be wiped prior to launch.[63]

Ashes of Creation Apocalypse
