#

also, if that doesn't work, and no ohter ideas, I would also delete the game, and reinstall it. and make sure it's on a SSD

#

you end upt with 190 gb after repair?

sleek sapphire
#

It uses a lot of space to do the things. Not uncommon for games to want lots of space.

sleek sapphire

primal steeple
#

hot damn, mine has 216 bg 😄

golden dawn
#

They need to update the space requirements, or at least for alpha modified so people know how much maximum is used

sleek sapphire
golden dawn
#

Right now if you attempt a fresh install, it will install the launcher, then reserve 50 GB, then check for 100 GB free.

surreal onyx
#

@sleek sapphire I installed the game on 2 PCs, on 1 PC I don't have 190 gigs on the disk. The black screen is only fixed by repair.

golden dawn
#

It seems like they put the cart before the horse in terms of checking for space and reserving it

primal steeple
#

the patcher folder hast 117 gb

golden dawn
#

Yeah, currently it appears that they haven’t really optimized for both performance, and disc space. Which isn’t a problem as this is Alpha. However I would imagine that they should update the requirements for Alpha to specifically call out that it uses much more than they currently officially state.

primal steeple
#

I wonder if it's safe to remove all the .patcher, i m assuming those are all the pathches I had since i installed the game

There are others talking about this issue in gen chat

If it continues I would post about it in the issues channel. Give very specific info.

Also have task manager open and watch what is spiking.

Post your issue. When Intrepid staff come online in 4+ hours they can check it out maybe.

It’s 5am for them right now.

managed to run the game on a old PC with a 1030 video card without any problems, but on my main PC with a 4070, the screen is black. I think this is because of the space on the SSD, 200 gigs of free

then better uninstall the game and leave it to reinstall, cuz it takes a while 😄

There have been various exploits found and fixed in the game over time. Right now there is not an obvious reported one that is being talked about. Does that mean there isn't one they haven't discovered yet? No, but the speedhacking is getting most of the attention atm.

This really might be a stupid question, is it every Tuesday and Wednesday for the full day the servers are down? My husband and I play late at night (around 10pm EST). We are really enjoying our time spent. Wondering if servers are always down those two days or sometimes. I saw that it would be down for a few hours…

The Quest "The Shining Shield" or other similar quests where you have to obtain a quest item. Will the "game design" (20+ ppl standing like BOTS in a circle and 24/7 punching to lucky get this guys tag and the needed item) stay like this ?
If so, who the hell thought this could be a good idea ?
You have like 0 chances to get this quest done as a casual player which is going to work.

Are there any tweeks that can be made to reduce VRAM usage on my RTX 3080? I go from 0.3 to 9.7 GB used out of 10 when the game launches in town, and still close to 9 GB out in the wild. That's with resolution on the lowest setting and everything else low as well.

#

With the anti cheat thing added recently, it's really bad and crashes due to 'out of VRAM' often when rolling into town.

They come to level 10-15 camps, slaughter us, collect our materials and leave.

Or they pull 3-star creatures into the middle of the party and become invisible, again putting the whole party to die.

You are right, the game is difficult and requires effort, but you will lose most of the players who think like me because of such immoral players.

  4. Does dexterity increase attack speed of magical weapon?

Hey everyone! I'm a level 16.5 solo player mage. So far, I've done very little grinding — I've mostly leveled up by exploring, doing quests, and gathering. My gear is full but low quality. Can you recommend a good grind spot to farm level 10 gear? Should I stick around Highwaymen Hills? The drops there seem pretty decent.

You never had it. The mayor decides what gets built next in the node through use of his mandate points (intended system) if you don't like what your individual mayor makes as a decision, then you remove them (intended friction point), or if enough people decide to not give the resources to finish the project, they "vote" that way.

I hope this is the right channel to ask, AOC seems to commit about 27 GB of RAM while mostly using between 5-10 (at most), is there a reason for that and is the 27 GB a realistic number to hit under some cases?

spiral pine
#

It will use as much as it can but there's also several memory leaks

hushed shore
#

changing from borderless windowed to windowed (visually its exactly the same) got my RAM usage from 20+GB to 5-8

#

i didnt bother to verify if thats actually the setting causing that though so your mileage may vary

tribal solar
#

so you didn't even restart the game, just changed that setting?

hushed shore
#

i didnt pay too close attention. i just at some point swapped to windowed cause i had a different issue with my gpu and eventually noticed that the game was running on 5gb ram now

#

theres a slight possibility that it was a different graphic setting but i dont really see how those would affect RAM usage

#

i dont really see it on the windowed/borderless thing either but its what makes the most sense to me

tribal solar
#

yeah but if you restart the game then the memory leaks go away, that's why I was asking.

spiral pine
#

Restarting the game flushes the memory

abstract trellis
#

ah u mean every half an hour or something ok i get it

tribal solar
#

yeah, basically.
certain bugs prevent the game from freeing up allocated memory, and it adds up over time.
by restarting the game you free up ALL memory used by the process, so you can start from 0.

some people have to restart it every 30m-1h because they run out of memory quickly.

#

i see so i need to keep track of that and see for my pc and how it works

#

@idle siren can we do another wipe before august and try without monster/boss item drops? I would love to see how the game plays out when people actually need to buff out nodes and professions in order to efficiently level up and empower their characters. The golden path right now renders the professions pretty obsolete.

Grinding to max level in novice gear should be such a slog that it is more efficient to stop at some point, spend time on professions, nodes, get gear and THEN continue grinding. That being said, since max level is 25 at the moment, it is easier to grind it in BIS novice (sanctus) gear.

Bosses/monsters should still drop some form of crafting mats, so there is still good reason to fight over them (which is hella fun). Also would be nice to see some more mini purple regions in each node with some high value mats or something worth fighting over so that there are some good local PVP spots sprinkled around the map. It sucks to have to spend 30m (or more) just to get a group to travel the map to a purple region to "look for" PVP.

a lvl 24 killed my lvl 17 char, and 1 min later, his debuff was gone, and he didnt die... so does killing players, on not pvp ground and non marked players not get punished at all?

near stump
obtuse quail
#

i didnt check if his name turned red to be honest... but location sure was pve, no events, the only thing that i did (try) was attacking back... without success, obviously...
so i was farming, he flagged himself for pvp, attacked me, i attacked back, i died, and 1min late,r when i rode back from nearest ember, he was white, non marked...normally it should last, right?

crisp holly
# obtuse quail i didnt check if his name turned red to be honest... but location sure was pve, ...

Due to you attacking back, you will have both been purple(combatants) which means there is no Corruption punishment for the survivor because it was "consensual" pvp and they will loose the purple tag of PvP in 90 seconds. Going back to being a non-combatant/green and no punishments.
If you did not fight back and they killed you, they would have been killing a non-combatant and they would have turned red/Corrupted.

obtuse quail
#

so fighting back did not only punish me, but rewarded him, the bullie?` well thats a crappy system... but thank you very much for the info!

desert ivy
#

If you fought back and went purple you would have went into less XP debt and dropped less materials compared to if you hadn't have fought back

obtuse quail
#

well, thats even more concerning...

#

so the bullies will get away way easier...

#

but thanks anyway.

desert ivy
#

The point is

If you don't fight back, you lose more, but the killer goes corrupted
If you fight back, you lose less, but it's a consensual PvP fight so the killer doesn't go corrupted

#

So you decide whether you want to fuck over the attacker by not fighting back, leading to them going corrupted, or if you fight back to maybe win, or lose less stuff if you die

When I log in, I can reach character creation. Once I select my character and press play. I usually get a blackscreen for a few min, crashes after.
This has been happening since the big patch last week, after a few tries I usually manage to log in but today have tried multiple times and cannot log in.

Guess im not playing for now.

Hey MistyMoon, we've been actively trying to tackle issues with the black screen crash between the character lobby and logging into the game, that's impacting some testers

If you continue to have more crashes, here are things you can do

For those of you on Linux... I successfully launch the game and make a character. However when clicking play after character creation my PC just is a black screen.. No cursor or sound. Any advice?

Why does your game take 30 minutes to launch and longer to even play? I'm getting more playtime in black screens than I have staring at a TV turned off. I know it's an alpha, but we're trying to play the alpha and we can't.... Is there any plans to actually optimize the game for actual use during the alpha? My CPU memory is at 95+ all from this game. It's tanking my PC to sit and stare at black screens... This was a waste of my two days off.

Just a thought to fix the crafting loop. Make all finished item drops broken in such a way so they require a crafter of the relevant skill and level.

# stuck parcel Can I wear Cloaks from other nodes?

as of rn; you can only equip cloak from the node you are a citizen from, the workaround that people use is they become citizen of the node they want the cloak from, equip it and never unequip it again, after that as long as you keep it equipped the cloak stay on you no matter your citizenship

They hired someone ages ago who has been said at least twice to be working on going through the backlog of applications and implementing Intrepids plans for official content creators and the other things related to it. There has been no update as to their progress, and since literally thousands of people who think that a Reddit comment one time in 2012 means they created content and are entitled to whatever benefits would come from that title, they have a huge workload to go through.

Hey everyone ^_^
I have a few questions...
I was interested in this game since like 4 years ago and I've been checking it's development every now and then.
Idk if these questions are asked often, I was looking through FAQ and Reddit but I couldn't get any concrete answers.

  1. Is there a server that doesn't get wiped? If no, how often do servers wipe?
  2. I know this game has a massive time sink so for someone that doesn't play a lot, maybe a few hours in the evening every day, can I still progress and help the development even though I don't test all the features
  3. I am a very casual player and I mostly like doing crafting, gathering and anything chill and laid back. Would I still be a good game tester ? Or is this just not for me right now and I should maybe wait for the release.
    I do really want to contribute to this game's development but I am just worried that I may be not a good person for it, are most people here hardcore MMORPG players ? Or are there also some casual players just chilling in game?
    Sorry if these questions are often asked, I just didn't get my answers from other sources.
    Thanks to anyone who can answer either or all of these questions. (˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶)

Updating bios has worked for some. Others recommended a mix of settings, not just all low, all medium or all high. The game is in no way optimized for the various setups people are trying to run, so you gotta play with the settings and such. Stay at it. Literally thousands of other people have gotten it to run and hundreds to thousands are playing right now. Persistence in a testing environment is key.

ruby swift
#

Nodes and their type and position are fixed regardless of level. You will always be able to see the "cork"

#

If one is blasted back to zero in a siege loss, it will appear (if it gets advanced again) in exactly the same spot. This is a change from earlier plans that they wanted to have a few locations per "node zone" that would be determined by the world manager. Apparently it was too complex of a step to throw onto their world manager. Similar how nodes no longer delevel from a siege loss, but are blasted back to zero, because to the down ballot impact on vassalization and other factors.

Make sure to get everything when you uninstall. Use this as a guide. Realize that Intrepid has said that 100gb memory is the minimum, but it is higher than that during install. During the install process a bunch of processes are unpacked in memory, so it can use a larger, variable amount. If it sees that it doesn't have enough for that process it either hangs or aborts. You are not the first person to have the "But I have enough, just barely, so it should work!" experience. Give it another shot, if that doesn't work, then upgrade your SSD, or it that is not an option, then request a refund. Good luck. https://support.ashesofcreation.com/hc/en-us/articles/4402749120787-How-to-uninstall-and-remove-all-files-for-Ashes-of-Creation-Alpha

It is like anything else new Intrepid tries. It is a setting they will fix or play with once they notice it is there.

They would rather people know, than say "I never knew a siege was incoming, I lost all my stuff cause I was offline, and now I am sad. I want to leave!"

i have 170gb free on disc, it still writes *i need 90gb after 100% upload

#

wtf

Yep, not the first person to have that happen to them. File a ticket, maybe they can help. Or maybe they can't. This channel is just people who play the game trying to help others.

thats why i think problem in launcher, not in computer

pliant seal
#

@analog oasis yeah I had no problem launching/playing the game before I upgraded.

Now that I upgraded, the game will not launch, and just goes to a black screen and crashes

analog oasis
#

im trying to upload it on ssd

#

now i cant

#

-_-

ruby swift
#

Yep, the game wont work on HDD, there is not enough transfer rate to Intrepid's servers. You get timed out. The game requires an internal SSD. Anytime you are marginal with a testing product, you are going to run into issues. It sucks, but it is what it is. Now if EVERYONE could not get into the game, then they would have an issue on their side. If a few fallen soldiers are sacrificed along the way? Well, you are a good data point.

Actually players here want to find help, they dont want to be solders-testers for 100$

Hello, I'm thinking of buying the alpha access to test the game right now, but I'm still on the fence. Is there a possibility to refund?

split hemlock
#

I think there is a 90 day refund policy

#

But beware, they still can decide to not refund it, incase you want to play 200 hours in those 90 days and then refund it 😂

Thanks for the link

i assume the installer needs some extra space to merge data / move installed files.. maybe it helps to defragment and optimize your drive due to not enough space in series being available?

#

im just thinking and working on assumptions tho

analog oasis
#

actually i have space for it

#

this penetrate my brain

eager patio

only thing i can think of would be a fragmented drive so defragmenting it might work

hows your cpu doing? xD

i played mpvp in ThroneLib, like +-1000players at one time on mid-settings and had 40-60fps

Did you try repair?

I tried everything

is your disk actively writing / reading data? u can check in taskmanager > performance

repair, uninstall, reinstall, reinstall on D, on C, remove, clear disc

i did it from 6am - 8pm in my time

eager patio
#

very weird...

Thats so f

analog oasis
#

i bet launcher has problems

eager patio

there is a program to optimize and defragment drives, can try that i guess

analog oasis

and i think it write x2 of needed

idk why and how

try using win+r dfrgui to analyse and optimize the drive, might work.. its the only thing i can think of rn

its possible to have blocks of storage seperated by data and the installer expecting a single large block for file operations

This whole weekend has been a waste of time for me. Trying to play, I get stuck in a combat situation performing the same skill Uber and Uber, unable to tab out or anything to cancel. I have to go to task manager. Cancel the client and restart it consistently happens. The quests do not update properly. To spell augmentations, and it
Weapon skills such as volatility, don't apply properly due to unsynchronized workers.
I was hoping for at least sometime to refine what I like to play. And simply unplayable

It really doesn't matter. I've put in multiple bug tickets. It's been more than three weeks, and it's gotten worse

#

It's just like the hacking I put in tickets on people hacking. They said they would check into things. Two months later, they start banning players that they covered

gray comet
#

What's the deal with the stabilizing server? And synchronizing workers

#

Game is unplayable

#

Quite honestly, I'm appalled at the state. They leave the game in on a holiday weekend

#

They knew this was the issue, and you can see it because they decided to extend the playtime

desert ivy
#

Because the staff are on holiday, for the holiday weekend as you said LOADING

So there's no one to tend to the servers atm

how do people get gear with out doing the surplus token quests? you dont get curency from quests and it seams the only way to get gear is to buy on the market? you cant sell on the market till lvl 10 so it seams you have to sell resourses to vendors for pennys till you are lvl 10 and even then you are doing this in starter clothes. just curious how people got some gear or cash to buy some

shadow bluff
#

Simple answer, drops and vendor.

hushed hatch
# hollow crane ok thanks havent seen a vendor that sells cleric gear for silver or any gear yet

The general vendor near the auction house who is near the surplus token vendor does sell some gear but please doublecheck the value of getting something for surplus token vs silver, most low level starter gear doesnt typically have a lot of stats, BIS gear is legendary because an increase in rarity means more tertiary stats on the weapons or armor. Please get the surplus token gear, supplement it from the nearby vendor who sells for silver and get sanctus gear first. Then, once you hit 10-19 youll be SCROUNGING for any relevant lvl 10 or lvl 20 gear. Everyone is going to level, depending on pace and if theyre keeping alts at a specific lvl to farm drops but i digress, so because we assume lvl is 25 flat, the only differentiating factors are gear, and skill. Gear is SO important but do not fret over it too much at a relatively low level, pick up what you can but focus more on the gameplay and learning your class(es)

#

Also, if youve looked up builds, many are outdated and none apply to lower leveling, GEAR specifically, so go out f stuff up and heal ya bois and gals

hello everyone,

Why do we get character xp while gathering ressources?

It's really easy and fast to gain xp with just gathering and crafting.

Please remove this xp, it's really too easy to lvl up without any fight.

Fight = xp
Craft = craft xp

Thank you for the huge work you do, it's a really nice game.
Btw, do not increase copper/ruby/zinc... drop. It is really easy to get those.
Don't answer to the impatient players.
This game deserve real good players, not kids who just want everything in an instant.

wanton sorrel

i understand but it's not logical... you don't fight and you earn xp. illogical.
i do not fight very often and it's really too easy to lvl up with crafting. The game loose it interest .

Just my opinion, it is too easy.

Or at least decrese 90% of xp gained

The intrepid launcher is not opening but shows up in task manager. I end proccess and try again but its still not opening, any fixes?

can someone please advise how this works:
so I stack "echo" with every 5 autoattacks and then after casting any spell - it gets extra damage from this passive - so the creator of this wants you to cast a "massive nuke" skill every 4 times 5 autoattacks?

is there a dummy where I can test damage?

but the earlier they address this kind of stuff the better.
i'm glad that hackers attacked the game in this filler phase instead of waiting for Phase 3.
hopefully this will allow Intrepid to set up the appropriate defenses to at least catch the most obnoxious hacks like speed/teleport Praygers
