@mild schooner Questing i.e. there's battle pass themed quests such as "Find 3 elixirs, obtain 5 headshots" etc.
Experience gain i.e. there are various daily quests etc for exp calculation
Armory i.e. in the BR lobby you are able to equip/unequip various cosmetic items in your loadout
Items i.e. various consumables such as health potions, mount potions etc are available in the BR

#

and finally as for the backend systems, the BR lets them test 100-man tests whereas a PvP arena would only be 5v5 and doesnt put any stress on the server.

thorny terrace
#

sany mod or anthing online to help with the email and password issue?

hidden crane
#

@thorny terrace I'm not a mod, but what issue are you facing?

thorny terrace
#

#

@thorny terrace

#

Have you registered a new account on the testing account registration page?

thorny terrace
#

oh i had to make a new account? haha

hidden crane
#

Yes, you have to register a new testing account via the link provided in the email

thorny terrace
#

derp just did it and it works

I am having the same issue I have had since Saturday, I cannot even get it to sign in

hidden crane
#

@shrewd shale

#

Did you register a new testing account?

somber gorge
#

is there a vod from the stream?

worn frigate
#

there was no stream

hidden crane
#

@somber gorge No stream, delayed to tomorrow

somber gorge
#

i just hoped on looked for the vod

blissful bison
#

What's the intended download speed for patching?

shrewd shale
#

@hidden crane I did over the weekend

hidden crane
#

@blissful bison

#

It fluctuates due to too many players downloading

blissful bison
#

Yesterday I got up to 1.1MB/s, now it's 0.21 MB/s lol

#

Feels bad man.

hidden crane
#

@shrewd shale If you've successfully registered a test account on the site, you should be able to use those credentials to log into the launcher right now

#

Ensure that you are using the same email linked to your AoC account

shrewd shale
#

@[CM] Shaze | Ashespost.com I put in the same credientials and it instantly boots it back so I have to reenter my password. I haven't been able to get past login since Saturday. I have done several uninstall/reinstalls

hidden crane
#

Might have to get one of the devs to help in that case

#

@blazing orchid

calm veldt
#

Can you make an Alpha or a Tester role, for those involved in that and restrict access to the stress test channel to that role?

hidden crane
#

@calm veldt That role already exists, please check the pinned message in #aoc-discussion and follow the instructions to get your tester roles

molten jackal
#

So, what quests, and such are we testing today? It's just BR.

woven trout
#

yea I am wondering the same thing. Where are they supposed to be at?

dark jungle
#

@molten jackal they are like missions

#

You get points for completing certain tasks

woven trout
#

Where do you see them at though?

crystal flax
#

There's a small issue making them invisible currently, you only see them when you make progress in them

quaint lance
#

I had heard a new website is in the works. Do we have an ETA on it? Does anyone know if that's why the game packages haven't been updated for December?

molten jackal
#

Is it common for the game to mess up when alt+tabbing? I lose where my mouse is at when I die and can't leave matches.

#

I have to spam keys before I see my mouse reappear.

#

I'm also using dual monitor setup.

crystal flax
#

Usually if you can't see your mouse it can be solved by clicking

drowsy pulsar
#

im the only only one with a lot of frame lag?

astral inlet
#

Supposed to just queue Solo or Squads?

fading latch
#

Either

#

Up to u

ruby swift
#

Some just said squad only right now in discussion

dim mulch
#

Email says squad testing only

fading latch
#

Weird. Krojack was solo

#

No idea

astral mason
#

so this is still a strictly BR game mode

#

?

crystal flax
#

This testing phase is, yes

astral mason
#

😩

#

Not a BR person. Mainly because i am bad at it . lol

crystal flax
#

Same

astral mason
#

anyone know when they will move to a different mode?

crystal flax
#

Castle Siege is supposed to be some time this month

astral mason
#

that could be cool

empty juniper
#

"game apoc-alpha0-2 not found" what do I do?

fair gale
#

Anyone else stuck at download speed 0?

empty juniper
#

havent been able to play in any stress test lol. >braver of world backer< i suck

fair gale
#

I can't even download

#

And the login at launcher doesn't work from China without a VPN

wild geyser
#

@hidden crane I did the whole check for caps etc for my account, all was right, still not able to make an account with my email.

#

what dev do I need to get in touch with, because i'm getting the emails for alpha and having the same issue Alex was having.

hidden crane
#

I'd recommend PM'ing Alex from Intrepid

wild geyser
#

thx

empty juniper
#

seems i only got that error cuz it didnt start downloading immediately. im at 86% now ^^ fingers crossed

sage folio
#

I cannot login, when i try and register i get an "email address not available", when i try and recover my username, i get "invalid input parameters" how can i fix this??
i have NOT registered yet.

hidden crane
#

@sage folio Ensure you are trying to register with the email tied to your aoc account purchase

sage folio
#

i am

hidden crane
#

The email is case sensitive

empty juniper
#

damn.. got same error message again

hidden crane
#

Ensure caps etc are all accounted for

sage folio
#

the recover password worked, i recieved a link to reset it... which doesn't make sense because i havn't registered yet

sterile pond
#

@sage folio hey, as long as it works

sage folio
#

but i dont know my username? since i havn't registered yet. and the username recovery link is busted

sterile pond
#

probably the same as the one you have for the old site.

#

if i had to guess

fading latch
#

@sage folio same details from the test from the weekend

sage folio
#

never registered last weekend

empty juniper
#

so now the game boots but as soon as intrepid logo shows it crashes. some unreal engine 4 error

#

hopefully there is a forum somewhere for this¨

rough bane
#

So my computer took the entire time to attempt to download the game... Both yesterday and today it did not finish. Can you please provide a way to continue the download process even when the servers are down?

crystal flax
#

The game should still finish downloading if you let it go through it entirely

rough bane
#

It halts once the server goes down

#

Then when I try and reopen the launcher, the progress restarts, thus I have to wait until next test

crystal beacon
#

why are we here that does not have alpha

#

tbh

#

dont spoil to us others maker a diffrent CH or some

#

we want to wait for AoC but not beaing spoild bny US: we stilll vaulue this game alot.

#

EU should not hear it what happens in Server since this is mostly NA backed

#

for Na

#

we heared Epic Games the Platfrom

crystal flax
#

I think you might be in the wrong channel, this is for direct questions and answers

crystal beacon

fading latch
#

I mean its testing. Your gonna get spoiled if you look for it

#

If you dont want spoilers. Dont watch or participate

crystal beacon
#

well

#

if u do a only NA backing

crystal flax
#

Checking your message history you actually didn't say that anywhere

crystal beacon
#

thats not the piooint

fading latch
#

Plenty of EU have backed

crystal beacon

fading latch
#

What are you waiting for exactly?

Im so confused

tulip hatch

Inix can you explain your issue

crystal beacon
#

i have taken the rigth steps by via paypal etrc

fading latch
#

For payment. But have you contacted intrepid via support ticket or contacted a mod about access?

#

Alluring can help you

tulip hatch
#

πŸ‘‹ start by explaining the problem

crystal beacon

that support is only for NA

tulip hatch

nova abyss
#

The servers are dead right now right? And they will get opened at 4 to 6 PM EST?

#

Is this acutally Alpha 2?

crystal flax
#

This is before A1 still technically, and it'll be starting at 7 EST

honest dagger
#

@crystal flax Testing doesn't start @7pm est, it ends roughly around that time. Sucks for most of us on west coast and mountain times zone as we are still at work 😦

#

nm

crystal flax
#

Being on EST I can confirm it does start at 7pm, as their news posts state it's-

honest dagger
#

I am looking at it wrong

crystal flax
#

PeterLUL All good, it happens

honest dagger
#

still sucks for me as I don't get home till just as it's ending 😦

#

<@&257269635559194625> Any way to get the testing times pushed forward at least 1 hour so those of us on PST and MST that work during the day can at least get in on the alpha?

edgy acorn
#

@idle siren Will there be Dual wielding weapons, like double daggers specifically? I want my assassin to be dual wielding please :3

stable plover
#

There will be dual wielding, and daggers are weapons - I think the only special note we've gotten for daggers is that there will be skills that allow throwing them

solid silo
#

silent lantern
#

later today

sudden knot
#

i created the account. i try to log in so that it can download the game files. nothing happens

#

launcher for game files works anytime or just during the testing periods?

#

ok

#

thanks

glad hornet
#

hello

#

I just wanna ask because a few months ago I purchase a pack to have me do alpha testing

#

but I can't seem to login my account on the launcher

dawn dock
#

How big is the download cos if ive only got 2 hours to download it there is no point in even trying

hidden crane
#

@glad hornet Please follow the instructions in your email to find out how to register for a testing account

glad hornet
#

already did, I'm trying to login my account on the launcher but nothing is happening

#

does it have to be 4PM for me to be able to login?

hidden crane
#

@glad hornet It varies, sometimes players are able to login to the launcher even though the servers are live.

#

However yes, you'd have to wait until the servers go live, so keep an eye on #web-maintenance

glad hornet
#

Oh that's good, where can I see it?

hidden crane
#

click on it

glad hornet
#

alright thank you for the info. BTW, would we be able to test out the dual class system?

hidden crane
#

Dual classes is in Alpha 2 in 2019

glad hornet
#

oh thank you very much, this is helpful

crystal beacon
#

Question: when is this game set to release any estimated date?

#

Sweet thank you very much!

tacit osprey
#

I purchased a Founders Pack summer '17, too busy to tests until now, verified email for testing and am trying to set up with Intrepid. Intrepid will not allow me to setup, i am using the same email, but it does not seem to recognize my email. What do i do?

crystal beacon
#

@tacit osprey when you go to the site provided in the email, the first thing you'd want to do is go to
"Don't have an Intrepid Account yet? Register here." (located below the big orange log in button)

Then you'll see a Sign up page.
Username can be whatever you 'd like, and for now that will be your visible username (it will reset before the game goes llve, so it doesn't really matter now)
Password - Kinda self explanatory
Verify that baby
For email, make sure you copy/paste your email exactly from your account on: https://www.ashesofcreation.com/account/general
including caps/non caps.

There's a known issue where if you've gotten a verification mail already, It will have allowed you previous registration.

When will apocalypse be free to play

boreal abyss

Unknown

tacit osprey
#

ty forcie, i will go and try this

stable plover
#

@tacit osprey You should consider filling out a support ticket as well with the button on the bottom right of the website

empty girder
#

Testing again this afternoon? 4pm PST?

tacit osprey
#

Forcie did what you suggested, still gives me this message "Email address not availabe". Not sure how to continue.

#

Just saw other comment from Greypelt, ty, I will fill out a support ticket.

modest sierra
#

Previous people have had this problem solved by saying you forgot your password and it will send you a new email to reset that @tacit osprey cuz even tho it says your email is not found, it had already created your account

tacit osprey
#

ty, i will try that first before support

#

no luck, will submit a support ticket

I don't believe anyone who already has an account needs access

Err needs to re-register, right.

mortal hamlet
#

Is the new owlbear a flying mount skin, or a ground mount skin?

crystal flax
#

It'll probably be a gliding mount, flying mounts are special and restricted to leaders of nodes

hallow prawn
#

that owlbear looks so good!

trail shuttle
#

You mentioned "touring the server room at the new office", indicating that at least one "datacenter" will be on West Coast. Are there plans for east coast servers, or international for that matter?
(so hyped :D)

nova abyss
#

Why cant i login to my account in the launcher? There is written, that my Username and PW is wrong.

cobalt zephyr
#

servers arent up yet

nova abyss
#

Ah ok. Because i have read, that there will be a stresstest between 4-6PM

Who/How do I get in touch with intrepid when I am having issues with both email & passwords? I forgot my password and I dont have access to my emails ....

Im trying, but microsoft screwing me over with getting access to it, at best I can get access to it by the 19th dec, missing out on all the fun stuff

hidden crane
fathom cape
#

THANKS:3:)

cinder ridge
#

@idle siren the December mount looks oddly close to the Dawnbreaker mount from the kickstarter campaign. can you explain the difference between the two other than the type of wings, additionally, if flying mounts are meant to be limited why have we seen a handful of winged mounts already?

fathom cape
#

So! Do we have to create a new account for AoC apocalypse so we can play on the 18th? I am beta 2 backer...

cinder ridge
#

@fathom cape no. accoutns will carry over.

no @fathom cape

so...i have tried many things to make sure my registered account is working properly. I am trying to make sure there isn''t an issue with the username so I went to "Forgot my username" and when I put in my email i get: "Invalid Input parameters".
even though i can log in otherwise

tough delta
#

With the open Beta coming soon.. any updates on how we can reserve our names?

digital yacht
#

u cant

tough delta
#

Well, do we know when we can? Because that was part of, I believe most of the kickstarter bundles

hidden crane
#

@tough delta Name reservation will be open much later in 2019, you will receive notifications regarding when it opens well in advance

cinder ridge
#

i believe we were told that each alt can have a freehold but they essentially have a tax tied to them that has to be upkept in order to keep them all, can anyone confirm if that's true or is it one per account? Wondering how many freehold skins is too many.

brittle shuttle
#

how are we gonna protect feet from projectiles using a shield class?

cinder ridge
#

^you don't thats where you get the crits on tanks.

brittle shuttle
#

do shields have regenerated durability like bdo does or is it "block forever"

#

because thats how you kill warrior in pvp with a dps class. You break the shield

#

or you grab

hidden crane
#

@brittle shuttle

#

If you view the video, you can see that the shield can be toggled as an active ability.

vestal turtle
#

Does anyone know how long the testing will be up today?

brittle shuttle
#

is that video apocalypse or real ashes footage. I just want to know "plans for future"

hidden crane
#

Real Apocalypse gameplay footage

brittle shuttle
#

thank you

clever ore
#

yo guys

#

does anyone know when the BR stops

#

and when theyll show all classes

hidden crane
#

@clever ore All classes is due on Alpha 1 in Q2 2019

brittle shuttle
#

okay they need to add Z Y axis movement to shields

clever ore
#

itll still be alpha in 2019

#

when is beta starting

brittle shuttle
#

there is a schedule i think

#

im sure i saw it

clever ore
#

hwmany alphas are there

#

so like alpha 1 q 1 2 and 1q2 and 2q2

cinder ridge
#

are embers the same as unpaid earnings from referrals?

hidden crane
#

@clever ore Alpha 1, Alpha 2, Beta 1, Beta 2, Release

clever ore
#

thanks for that ^^

brittle shuttle
#

do anyone know if any intrepid employee from combat stuff played hardcore TERA, BDO or C9 seal

molten jackal
#

So, how do you know which Alpha you are a backer of? Just curious about that lifetime membership thing they discussed in the live stream. I was a Founder, which is Closed Alpha - Phase 2 (Persistent Alpha) Is that considered Alpha 1?

brittle shuttle
#

they all seem like DnD , Archeage, everquest players

restive heart
#

@molten jackal that is Alpha 2

molten jackal
#

nooooooo! Thanks @restive heart

stable plover
#

@cinder ridge embers are not the same as unpaid referral earnings - the main difference being that embers don't 'cash out'

cinder ridge
#

@stable plover well with embers being spendable in Apoc can we expect to be able to tap into the unpaid earnings for Ashes related purchases?

stable plover
#

I don't know, that's a Steven question ;p

#

or rather, that's eventually supposed to be a feature of referal earnings, I just don't know when

nova abyss
#

Will Ashes of Creation has a balance like past WoW between PvP and PvE?
Would be great though.

lethal spoke
#

Is there going to be nameplates on enemies or other players in the actual MMO version of the game I currently like that enemies do not have name plates or over the head health bars is this going to persist to the MMO

uneven wave
#

So I'm not sure if anyone answered this or not, but, will we have to re register for appocolypse? Or will our account automatically register? I tried to do it earlier and it said that my account name is already in use

crystal flax
#

The apocalypse website links to the normal website, so you'll use your normal one

I’m glad testing was delayed. Was actually able to get home in time. But now I’m sitting here biting my fingernails. Just waiting.

For people from the EU it isnt that great xD Actually it is 3:30 AM in a lot of countries in the EU πŸ˜„

Is the support ticket function on the website functioning beyond the auto response assigning a ticket number? <@&257269635559194625>

azure birch
#

it is argued that battle royale combat test doesnt actually help much to the MMO combat and it is a totally different product. what do you guys think about that?

#

well i heard that in dungeon crawler network stream but yep they may be ill-informed a little.

waxen crypt
#

any news yet about non-backers with accounts getting into the BR ?

neon steppe
#

So far from what I've seen of the combat it seems a little stale
lacking in acrobatics and variety at least for sword and bow play
reminds me a lot of Oblivion. @simple ether
Maybe I'm just too use to the flashiness of eastern MMOs 🀷

waxen crypt
#

sweeeeeeet

#

does that include castle siege

#

thanks for the info

#

looks like i managed to finish building my pc in time for this : )

#

@simple ether do we have to sign up again on the apocalypse website for open beta? already have a normal account btw

#

alright cool

hearty flicker
#

were the classes released yet?

#

ohhh finally

#

no i mean playable class

#

right now

#

not later...

crystal flax
#

Not yet in that case, but class kits are due to be in the Siege mode which is supposed to open for A1 by the end of the month

pale jetty
#

Is this the right room for account questions?

#

I'm an A1 KS backer, but I claimed my package late

ruby swift
#

Lol...people here can answer general account questions. Specific require tickets

pale jetty
#

Late October 2018/Early November 2018

#

Yes and no

#

I put in a support ticket and it sounded like I got manually added in early Nov

#

But I didn't get the new round of credentials

#

No

#

It's not in spam

#

Already checked

#

Yes

#

After the support ticket was opened

#

Yep

#

Doesn't work now of course

digital yacht
#

k did u go to the new site and make a new account?

ruby swift
#

Most likely need to kick you to a mod to make sure you are still on the master list, if you got credentials at any point during the process you should be.

pale jetty
#

But never got replacement

digital yacht
#

there were no new creds

#

go here and use the SAME email address linked to ur aoc acc

#

exact same

#

caps and all

pale jetty
#

Unrecognized tester email

digital yacht
#

^

ruby swift
#

Again, needs a mod with access to the master list to confirm, if they are on the master list then it is a problem on their end.

kind vapor
#

Indeed, I can't help in this case. A support ticket is best

pale jetty
#

Thanks, I'll put in another one

sour valley
#

So, with the apocalypse registration. I already registered awhile ago. Does that mean i am already setup for apocalypse?

#

Are the winter cosmetics up? i dont see them on the site.

surreal elk
#

Later today... usually around mid day

fossil merlin
#

Is there a way to view previous months cosmetics

silent lantern
#

@pale jetty i put a ticket too. tagged steven and described the issue if that makes any difference.

fossil merlin
#

Nice thanks, I wanna support the game but wanna get some cosmetics I really really enjoy. Wanna see what I missed so far lol

#

Oh I know. No worries

#

Just looking at missed opportunities lol

#

Seeing if I missed anything with a cosmic or Eldritch flavor, that's what would get me

#

That one almost hit the niche I was looking for, but not quite. The Eldritch skins they showed today were a good example. I'd buy a package of stuff themed like that.

small socket
#

About Ashes Apocalypse open Beta. Which servers will we get? Just EU and US west? Also any estimates on Apocalypse official release?

modest sierra
#

Yes

#

Probably around the time the actual game comes out. Possibly later since it’s mostly just a testing thing for the game right now

spiral edge
#

So at the end, we gonna have 2 games? Apocalypse and actual MMORPG?

#

And servers will be under the direction of my.com or the developers themselves

small socket

I thought Apocalypse is a separate thing and comes out way before the actual game since it makes no sense for it to come after. On their description for YouTube for the Apocalypse trailer they say Open beta begins 16th December. Not Alpha test but Open Beta! This means Apocalypse is separate and this its Open Beta. Question is when is the final release. It wont make any sense for the Apocalypse to be in open beta for 1 year...

lilac lion
#

Ashes apoc open beta = December 18th

small socket
#

@lilac lion yea but what about Final release for Apoc? Any estimates?

lilac lion
#

Well, i think itd stay on open beta until castle siege, horde siege testing is done? Idk not too sure, just woke up so still like half asleep πŸ˜…

#

As far as br being a standalone, if you dont know already, because something happened in verra, your ancestors had to leave in order for them to survive. And after thousands of years, you return in the MMO to explore the new world that awaits. The BR = the world before your ancestors left (from what i understand) and it will be broken into chapters (like seasons on fortnite)

#

Each chapter will have lore explaining events that led to β€œapocalypse” when they had to leave through the portals for some reason (br shuts down) and come back after (mmo launches). Idk if they will keep br up when mmo is released or not either but ya

#

Again, im half asleep so everything isnt 100% accurate (i think it is) but watch yesterdays stream or wait for someone else to reply πŸ˜…

cobalt zephyr
#

I believe the plan tis that it will always be there as a separate game

worthy magnet

i have a question

#

the apoc release is for pve?

sharp atlas
#

Anyone knows when is the beta 2?

lilac lion
#

On dec 18, it will be battle royale pvp

#

Beta 2: 1 week before launch

#

Probably in december 2019

So in a year from now?

Beta 2 is after Alpha 2 and Beta 1 but before December 2019

hmm is there will be any kinda battle royal or Battlegrounds in actual mmorpg?

modest sierra

Shop updates today definitely later today

No the mmorpg is separate from the BR

I mean br like que for it in actual mmorpg (like BattleGrounds in World of Warcraft)

No

Br is separate launcher and server from actual game

@spiral edge the mmo WILL have its own battle grounds and arenas in addition to open world pvp, castle sieges, node sieges and so on.

Are we allowed to stream this stage of development?

you are allowed yes @strong talon the NDA has been dropped. stream away

just for everyone's sake here, please make sure to emphasize that it is an alpha, not a finished product

question, im a little confused.. So lets say i buy $250 pack, i get the skins + access to alpha 2 and both beta. Now from what I understand, to get 375 pack, i just need to spend 125 to upgrade. Now what if i upgrade when the month changes? do i get ALL the cosmetics from new month + the cosmetics i got for 250 in the previous month? or do i have to spend 375 instead of 125 for the new month? #confused

proven arrow
#

You pay the difference.

empty fjord
#

You pay the Difference, you get the cosmetics from that new pack, next month you can buy all cosmetics separate

This may be a stupid question, but I think IΒ΄ll ask anyway: I just saw that my.com will be publisher in europe. I have an older account there and my accoutn on ashesofcreation.com. Until now my kickstarter pledge and everything is registered on the ashesofcreation.com account. Will this be syncronized in some way to the my.com account eventually, or do I have to play on the US servers to get my Kickstarter stuff? I can not find anything about this so far.

empty fjord
#

They mentioned this in the livestream last night, I suggest you take a peek at that, it was a very good stream

kind steppe
#

Ok. Thanks. I will try to have look at it. πŸ˜ƒ

they said they would have th migration thing done before some test phase, don't remember which

Sadly I do not have much time to watch the streams, so IΒ΄m missing many things. But thats my problem. πŸ˜ƒ

#

possibly by dec 18 when open beta of apocalypse starts

Hopefully. But I will try to find it in the stream for details. Important for me is that they have a plan to migrate the stuff. I can check the details later. Thanks again.

Hello, just wanna ask about combot system. It is possible to lock a target ? Or u always need to catch with "cursor"?

silent lantern
#

No offence but you've spent 40+ minutes asking a question and the life stream is half an hour longer. Even if you watch it in 2 days cuz you don't have 1 hour of free time a day, you can still watch it.

so not

What are the current system requirements for the game?

cobalt zephyr

It’s been transcribed but it’s not mine to share

The combat at launch will give you the option to choose between 75% tab targeted/25% action or vice versa

@violet swan We have no info on that. The only one we have is they are aiming for the game to be playable on 5 year old machines

@zinc lava the abilities you have in tab target mode you will be able to lock on with

@digital zodiac since it will be available to all registered users i bet there will be an email with a link, but you will probably be able to download it by going to the website yourself when it launxhes

hidden crane
native lava
#

@hidden crane yeah, ty. Have already seen and a bit dissapointed 😦

somber wharf
#

Not sure if these questions are for here but.. Curious about the skill set and combat in general. Will the skill set be small (around 6-10) or will we get more variety to choose in an actual combat action? Can i choose my own binds on spells? And also, about the combat itself.. If a player is lets say extremely skilled but under geared player, can he still beat a more geared player with less exp in pvp? (this question is for the final product kinda..)

native lava
#

@digital yacht ppl wil not divide apoc and aoc, thats why when they see raw apoc they will drop it. 😦

digital yacht
#

Meh opinions

hidden crane
#

It is important to note that your secondary archetype merely augments the primary archetype skills. You do not get any bonus skills as of yet.

#

You'll have a considerable amount of customization when it comes to skills according to Intrepid, however in regards to the other questions, you'd have to wait and see like the rest of us

somber wharf
#

@hidden crane Alrighty thanks

Also another question, Are beta testers allowed to stream it? Or will be at some point?

@stable plover in Ashes Of Creatiom will we be able to start illigal secret farm (like in archeage for example ) ?

stable plover

I don't know about the 'illegal secret' part, but you can have a farm in AoC -- I didn't play AA myself

loud seal

u missed something then u-U

#

AA illegal farm were wild farms where everyone who discover it would be abble to gather it

azure birch
#

why would it be called illegal..

pure mango
#

@stable plover secret farm are for example a lare portion of trees that are available for logging to anyone (so the player who plants the tree has to find a good spot in order to get full laverage of the trees and none else can touch them

bcz it was outaide of your ligal properties i guess πŸ˜›

interesting idea. Tho there is no mention of such thing yet.

@toxic bear it will be open for everyone with a registered account, regardless of a package or no package

Exploring can lead you to finding lore, coming across rare legendary items, treasure hunting and you will gain exp

When will we be able to play tonight? πŸ˜ƒ

lucid current
#

i cant wait to see what the game looks and feels like

azure birch
#

I would like to see some weight to the movements, eg when swinging the sword, I want to feel that I successfully damaged my opponent. Furthermore, each of my actions should have consequences, I don't want a bunch of dudes running in circles and swinging their swords with no mechanics attached. The combat needs to slow down (Bard said it will but now I wonder - just through the mix of tab and action or something else?) and each of my movements should require skill, planning and thinking ahead of my opponent. So did they mention any info on this regard?

hidden crane
#

@azure birch Animations are not locked in yet, 'weight' etc and physics will be looked at continuously as the game develops. This is their First pass at the new action combat and it will be tweaked during the alpha testing phases.

#

Steven's specific example was: Compare the current animations to the ones from PAX a year ago, that's how big of a jump they want to show for what it will look like after alpha testing.

azure birch
#

yep that's what keeps my hopes up really. They have improved a lot. All i want is that they dont stop improving. The fact that BR mode became a side product made me worried as it was considered to be good enough for a side product which it isnt in my opinion as i said it lacks the physics and mechanics of melee combat etc. But ye if they plan on implementing those mechanics, great news.

They can't tell you when the testing will be because the last info given out was that something was broken. Until they fix it, they can't tell you when. Once it is fixed, then they will test.

Hi everyone !
I just got the news about the game and i just have one question.
For Playing this game we will have to subscrib it ? Like $50/month or something like that or will it be a Free to play ?

spice ember
#

@fierce moss sub to play only, $15/mo, no box cost

#

the MMO that is

#

Apocalypse (the arena modes) will be free to play

#

the main game (MMO) will be sub to play

and the sub will be $15?

If we became a Founder will we keep the items ? or will it vanish when the official game will realised?

They also have a referral program, so anyone you refer that spends money on the game can go toward lowering your monthly sub

in order to play the beta, can we download the game before 18 or the download link is gonna be released on 18 ?

They have sent out emails with instructions in the past, so presume that they will continue in the same vein - possibly the download may be made a little bit earlier (as is the potentially the case for the test tomorrow)

cedar mauve
#

So Apoc has 3 chapters with a rotation of 2-3 months which could be ad infinitum? Does that mean that there could be new cosmetics every rotation or pay every rotation to open the Legends mode?

crystal beacon
#

Additionally the first chapter is going to free for all Alpha 2 and Beta 1 & 2 backers!

(Alpha 1 backers will have a life-time subscription to the legendary pack already, and will never have to pay for this pack as long as Apocalypse exists)

Is apocalypse going to remain separate on the full aoc release, or be a part of the main game?

cinder terrace

Sorry I don't quite understand it.

  1. So on the 18th we can finally play the game and is it going to be free to play or then we have to pay a monthly subscription like ESO in the old "horrible" times?
  2. Is the game going to be only battle-boring royal or is it going to switch into an mmo later on?
  3. Will we be able to build our own base in this game?
    Thanks πŸ˜ƒ
#

oh $15 a month for the mmo?

#

It's ESO all over again 😦

crystal beacon
#

Hello @cinder terrace , let me try to summarize this stream which answers most of your questions: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/345572072

  1. Apocalypse would be free to play for either all of the backers or all of the registered people (its in there somewhere..)
    However, since they have to host this, they do offer a shop and "Legendary" pack that can be purchased. The legendary pack would simply contain more skins that can be earned during the Apocalypse stages compared to the free to play version (which also offers skins that you can earn)
  2. Apocalypse will contain BR, Siege and Horde mode, so not just BR.
  3. Not in Apocalypse, I believe. That might be part of the MMO though.

@ember shell Seperate but linked. Different game but it's part of the same universe as AoC

crystal beacon
#

And yes, they've gone for a subscription based model.

ember shell
#

i hope they don't gety so into AOC and the fortnite style bandwagon that they neglet the main MMO then πŸ€”

merry moth
#

It's subjective but I'd rather a sub based model than a box price of P2W cash shop

#

I doubt they will, the studio's full of MMO players

#

They probably just thought it'd be a good way to market AoC

#

But who knows what they're thinking

ember shell
#

hope thats the case, the "legendary pack" basically just sounds like a battle pass

cinder terrace
#

I heard the owner spent $30,000 in this game so I guess sub will be there for a while, I feel in ESO once again tbh. 😦

merry moth
#

I mean it is a battlepass lol

ember shell
#

I think the difference to ESO will be that they have said there will be no p2w at all in AOC but ESO has a ton of things for purchase that make you level easier, winmore etc

cinder terrace
#

monthly sub it's the way for them to get that money back and more but unfortunately it's the worst type of payment for us especially if we like the game and want to play it for a year or more.

#

I agree on that

merry moth
#

Would you rather a P2W cashshop?

#

What's better than a sub-model for an MMO?

cinder terrace
#

nope I would rather be charged even $50 one time and that's it like 90% of the games out there, tbh.

Apocalypse will be a stand alone version, that is different from the MMO.
Apocalypse will only contain Battle Royale, Siege and Horde mode, in an effort to not only test the content but also the servers by allowing all backers to join.

The MMO will be released, "before 2020", from a direct quote by Steven.

If you already have an account on the website, all you have to do is wait for the Dec 18th release. More details as to when those accounts will be able to set up their actual APOC accounts will be coming down the line. If you have a package, expect an email appropriate to your access level before that.

spring basalt
#

I don't. Unfortunately, i don't have the possibility to support them financially

ruby swift
#

Then the answer remains the same. Wait till Dec 18th.

spring basalt
#

Alright, thanks mate

desert saddle
#

Since I don't have an access pack Does anyone know if they'll run a sale on them for Christmas? Only wondering $75 for the lowest is a bit pricey for me right now lol

cedar talon
#

Doubt it, would be unfair to those that paid full price

desert saddle
#

ahh ok

keen agate
#

so ... if you're a backer from Kickstarter (Pioneer level) wouldn't you be able to play the beta by now ?

digital yacht
#

the Beta is not live, that comes later next year

keen agate
#

hm ... thought it had december 2018 on the kickstarter page

digital yacht
#

they all do, that was a generic timestamp that was needed, which shoulda been changed..

keen agate
#

aha ... so that Apocalypse Open Beta thing that's not what the kickstarter backers get ?

digital yacht
#

no, that is a seperate "game" that will be testing the Action combat of AoC

#

its 3 types of game modes that u can test, first one being the BR, then Castle Siege, then Horde Mode

keen agate
#

thanks for the feedback

hidden crane
#

@keen agate Hey there, as a Pioneer backer you should be able to play the game in tonight's test

slate light
#

How long will the open beta be? I'm on holiday when it comes out so I'm a bit worried I won't be able to test the game.

hidden crane
#

@slate light The Open beta for Apocalypse is intended to continue running as a standalone game

slate light
#

oh ok

#

thanks!

verbal grail
#

Steven talked about giving it it's own updates too

restive heart
#

If I have guildies who want to play Apocalypse but haven’t backed AoC, all they have to do is register on the website, right?

hidden crane
#

@restive heart Correct

restive heart
#

Thank you! Probably a repeat question, so apologies.

#

When will the December cosmetics come out

digital yacht
#

sometime this week, was supposed to be yesterday but things happen

ocean escarp
#

Gotcha

reef osprey
digital yacht
#

^ do not buy from that website unless u playing on EU lol

ocean escarp
#

Lol

reef osprey
#

well, they said that you will have the chance to migrate your account both ways

digital yacht
#

why go thru the hassle tho?

#

jsut wait a few days for the NA website to update

reef osprey
#

cuz we impatient and we want a winged polar bear now?

digital yacht
#

K lmk how well that works out for you, i wanna see it ingame today thanks

#

after u buy from EH shop

silent lantern
#

d @spring basalt you don't need a second account if you already have an AoC account.

#

@desert saddle 99.99% a no. The packs are meant to be purchased by the biggest supporters anyway

#

@keen agate beta is around the end of 2019 before release. Apocalypse beta starts 18th of December

opal mauve
#

so what's beta 1 suppose to be? like castle siege, horde and battle royale only or basically the whole game/what is done so far?

queen holly
#

Only castle sieges, BR and horde

#

They will drop things from the actual mmo in the apocolapyse to test it

#

We'll see some actual mmorpg footage next week

opal mauve
#

ok, that's what I was guessing it would be.

hidden halo
#

technically, Beta 1 for AoC will be the full game. Apoc beta release is Dec 18th. Be sure the terminology is correct so the masses don't get mixed up. Apoc beta is free. AoC Beta is not.

tawdry haven
#

Question, so do you have to Register a account for Apoc? Or will accounts made before work? Sorry if its a dumb question, just got confused is all.

mild helm
#

did any beta 1 backer get the email for todays test already?

hidden crane
#

@tawdry haven Previously registered accounts work for apocalypse.

tawdry haven
#

Thank you!

empty fjord
#

when was the store update going to be? thought it would be yesterday

vestal token
#

I was just wondering about that as well, I'm pretty sure they said yesterday, I was surprised to see it wasn't updated today.

turbid egret
#

emails for client update through patcher when ? i'm ready to go

#

@mild helm no emails yet for anyone afaik

crystal beacon
#

still waiting for the email

cedar mauve
#

So what happens after the 3 chapters finish in Apoc? More chapters, replay chapters, end Apoc, ?

spiral edge
#

You need donate to get answer feelsgoodman

empty fjord
#

after the 3 chapters are finished, the mmo testing will begin or has already begun, and apoc will be a finished product with updates possibly being merged in from the mmo as it is being developed towards a finished product

shut mulch
#

Hey guys, the beta apoc are servers going to be avalible for oceanic? Its kinda impossible for aussies to participate in BR with the 400-600ms we get with the server diffrence. So aussies are kinda restricted untill then. Horde mode would be only thing viable.

honest tinsel
#

Question, will the open beta on 18th be for everyone who is registered to play, or is it a 'chance' to get to play

cobalt zephyr
#

@honest tinsel all registered

ember thistle
#

can someone @ me when you answer this question, since we will have the beta access on december 18th can there be a preloader for the game so when the beta launches we just enter as soon as its open!

#

also everyone will get the beta that signed up right?

warped thicket
#

AoC apocalypse its full name of the game or only for Battle Royal ?

opal mauve
#

just battle royal, castle seige and horde

empty fjord
#

it is what Alpha 1 phase 1 was before.

winged token
#

dont think there going to make that 4pm start time >.>

ember thistle
#

I hope there is a way to download the game before that time by a couple of hours

turbid egret
#

well, that start time is in 20 mins

#

so don't think you'll make it by a couple of hours

#

plus most dl's are quick if you already have the game downloaded

crisp swan
#

am i the only one that haven't gotten the email yet?

warped thicket
#

what email ?

crisp swan

warped thicket

soon everyone will get an email with a launcher?

#

those are the cosmetics, that come with the preorder packages

Oh. The Sea expansion ❀

#

Also, in case anyone hasn't noticed or hasn't heard. We dont get the items for the skins. We have to earn them.

#

We have to earn the base item first, and then we can apply the skin.

crystal beacon
#

i got email about net week only

#

ember thistle
#

okay well do we have to buy anything to get in the beta or everyoen gets in for free? on december 18th?

the open beta of apocalypse is for free

There used to be giveaways for beta and alpha (for the MMORPG), but what Fhin said is right

#

regarding the battle royale part of the game

ember thistle
#

alright thank you guys

cobalt zephyr

There is a legendary quest line that is inexpensive $10 each chapter. But it isn’t required

heavy steeple

It's just a way of getting more skins

As a Founder level account, do I have access to the upcoming apocalypse stuff? Or do I need another package??

How long will the open beta last?

When I try to log in to the launcher it says user unknown I am using the correct user name and have tried all my password but it's still not letting me log in

Can anyone download what Steven put up

Also what access is a Founder? Like alpha 2 or beta 2 or something?

I can't tell where to find that in my account

Beta 2 I think

has the game launched for anyone?

@winged token gran anyone download or only Alpha 1 Testers

Damn ok

rough junco

@lavish oyster Alpha 1 & 2 backers

vast umbra

@anyone

If I upgrade to a Warrior of Old, it says it gets granted access to alpha phase 1 (earliest possible access)
But the game is in phase 0right now? The Kickstarter says phase 1 is the earliest phase.

#

Err braver of worlds*

lavish oyster
#

So if I buy the a package with alpha 2 in it I can download it @rough junco

rough junco
#

Unknown, would probably take some time to register you as a new backer.

lavish oyster
#

Ohh ok

rough junco
#

this is just a test for a few hours. the apocalypse testing 'game' is set to launch soon and youll be able to participate by just being registered on the website which costs you nothing

so none of this acctully counts to the beta on 18th?

I'm still on 0% lol

My first recommendation: Try being patient on a stopped DL, it might restart on it's own

Stuck for 9minutes now

some people have had luck with closing launcher down and restarting, I think some people have had luck with the repair button on launcher, some people have tried fresh installs - some people have tried all of those things and continued getting stuck in dls

Any idea why I can't log in? Using the new tester account I created last weekend. I was able to sign in once and install the game but after restarting the launcher, I can't log in again.

If I get the $75 dollar pack what's the estimated time I'll be able to play. If anyone knows

2 months i think

ya 2 months

I will prob only buy the subscription when it comes out tho

Think the price will be 15US / month. (In the pack it says 30US is the equivalent to 2 months)

@idle siren Sorry to bother, I don't play yet, but I watch a lot. Please have someone randomize the start position and speed of the idle animations on the characters in the lobby...just slightly. It's easy and doesn't cost any anything for the engine πŸ˜ƒ

#

@simple ether I heard you are implementing 64 classes, and that is such a challenge tbh, but here goes other question. For example, I'm a Fighter I start with sword, then I go blade dancer do I keep the sword or do you change the whole equipment, cause I guess if I start off as bard I have an harp as main weapon, but then by rolling to Blade dancer from it? Or is it gonna be like Archeage in which you just take the skills of certain class and implement it to your base one

#

LOL

#

Thought you were some kind of member XD

#

Sorry my dude

haughty osprey
#

lol

#

Jahlon answer to your customers!!!!!! πŸ˜‚

#

Okay can someone help me with explaining this whole AoC account / my.com acocunt thing? Why the split? I thought my were hosting servers for both na and eu so why all the talk about my.com hosting the eu site? And if I can play on EU servers using the account on the ashes website, why would anyone ever want to register on my.com? Also, why is the ashes website and my.com offering different cosmetics with the preorder packs? Did I mess up as an EU player for buying the preorder pack on the Ashes website instead of my??

small pecan
#

My.com is for EU. NA is self-published by Intrepid. everything on your Intrepid account will be transferred to My.com. the reason you didn't make a My.com acct but instead an Intrepid one is because My.com wasn't ready yet

#

also, I'm not sure about package differences! can't comment there

ember thistle
#

how can you register

digital yacht
#

@haughty osprey the plan was to self publish in all regions, but they realized if they were to do it the game would launch late in EU/OCE so they decided to outsource it, the thing ppl need to understand is that My.com has NO CONTROL over the game

stable plover
haughty osprey
#

@digital yacht

#

I know that

stable plover
#

(current cosmetic difference is from my.com already having updated to December cosmetics, while Intrepid website is still on the November ones)

haughty osprey
#

When I said why the split I meant why do we have to register on the my website, why can't they just use the normal site?

stable plover
small pecan
#

because they're publishing for EU. so you need a My.com account. if you want to register on Intrepid's site, then you'd have to transfer it over anyway

crystal beacon
#

Revelation online big fail

small pecan
#

yea, AoC is probably My.com's attempt to say, "hey look, we're not bad guys"

crystal beacon
#

dunno if that company shares intrepid philosophy

small pecan
#

they don't

#

that's why the contract gives My.com basically 0 control over the game

haughty osprey
#

So what if they are publishing it? Can't we connect to eu servers from the na client download?

crystal beacon
#

Oh nice, I was getting worried about the eu peps

small pecan
#

yea, lots of people definitely did when it got announced, haha--but they do have other problems like security breaches. thing about that though is that the new EU laws punish companies who have security breaches heavily. so My.com's forced to double down on their security

#

@haughty osprey I'm not sure if you can or not actually. someone else may know!

haughty osprey
#

or maybe you can only connect to eu servers with a my account?

#

"my.com will be responsible for EU accounts" oh yeah.. right.. well shit, I don't want to give my my information lmao

small pecan
#

yeaaaa

#

can fake it as much as you can, haha

haughty osprey
#

nope can't fake it, you have to subscribe remember

#

they better offer paypal payments

small pecan
#

oh, payment info. can't get around that ;-;

haughty osprey
#

why can I not find this thing on the ashes website?

small pecan
#

I believe that's a specific thing for My.com because of their reputation (and Intrepid needs people to actually trust My.com). I imagine NA players will have some way of getting whatever it is too

#

could also be something simple like $5 in the cosmetic shop

haughty osprey
#

it's probably a brown dye or some shit

small pecan
#

could be! very exciting

haughty osprey
#

anyway, are the accounts already transfered to my? Or will they be later? I'm wondering cause you have to login to get the dye

small pecan
#

nope, not yet! they're going to start the transfer process before the 18th this month. you'll have to do something manually to transfer it

toxic quail
#

I don't think they will auto transfer because they want to let EU players have the option of playing on the NA servers, which would mean they would keep their accounts with Intrepid

fiery beacon
#

do i log in with my email on the launcher?

ember thistle
#

you have to have an intrepid account to use the launcher and signing up doesnt work

haughty osprey
#

I don't see why some eu players would want to lag on na servers

toxic quail
#

yeah, they wanted to leave that option open because so many were upset about the my.com decision

haughty osprey
#

yeah I get it

fiery beacon
#

i have an acccount and have purchased the 150$ package just cant seem to log in to sytart download of apocalypse

haughty osprey
#

pretty sure they closed the servers for now

#

or can you still download? Does anyone know?

toxic quail
#

did you get an email to download?

haughty osprey
#

oh but @fiery beacon did you download the launcher?

#

yea you did nvm

fiery beacon
#

i didnt, i just went to the link mentioned on discord, and yes i have downloaded the launcher

#

is it due to being a beta 1 person that i didnt get the email?

toxic quail
#

probably

haughty osprey
#

yes

#

only alpha

toxic quail
#

when they allow beta's in, you'll get an email

#

with exactly what to do

fiery beacon
#

oh okay i must have misread something, thanks for clarifying

haughty osprey
#

I should read the email again to make sure we're right here

toxic quail
#

they planned on letting beta's in this weekend, so you will probably get one soon, I assume

fiery beacon
#

Okay they will be inviting beta 1 members sunday morning i see

toxic quail
#

I think these tests are still using test accounts and not your main account

#

so the email will give you your test account

fiery beacon
#

gotcha

If I have a Name Reservation with my game package, how do I claim that?
