would be better if it was how ESO did it, where we have a menu of our cosmetics that we can attach to any character at any time

@crystal beacon i know ur not but in the reddit is also talks about the fact that because their limited, why have a timer. which leads me to the question if ur gunna have a timer on tranfering cosmetics why cant i just buy multiples

I havent had a chance to play AOC in any form seems some have.... How is the combat system feeling... I would LOVE to see AOC have a Black desert Combat feel... its early yet in the game and it doesnt look like it does proly more like WOW than BDO. But damn BDOs combat was pretty... Just the rest of the game was shit.
edgy marsh
Can't really say aside from what's shown in the preview videos
Seems like it still has some work to do tho based on that
untold nexus
Ya seen some vids too seems sluggish at a glance and the character models walk funny so stiff like
edgy marsh
That's a bunch of polish tbh. Game's in alpha. They got time to fix little stuff like stiff character models of they decide it's even a problem
untold nexus
Just seems with all this focus on wars n pvp that combat should fly like BDO's does
edgy marsh
Not necessarily
untold nexus
Ya thats why im commenting now to hopefully get this out there i played a very little of bdo was loving the combat but my buddy was like no point aint nuttin to really do at the end of it
AOC been my long lost lustful mmo i seem to be dreaming of if they can make all the stuff they talk about happen and polish it up nice especially combat (for me)
not just press a button and firebolt
desert ivy
Ashes definitely isn't going for BDO style combat
untold nexus
ya sadly didnt seem that way
desert ivy
It will be a 1 button press = instant skill type of game
untold nexus
just once its polished it proly still be pretty overall
desert ivy
If anything, for the tab side of the combat you can probably expect something similar to ArcheAge

just like the questions they do at the end of each live stream.
ruby swift
You can post it on forums. Could be you get a response. They have done that a handful of times over the years. Or you post it in the monthly thread for the livestream. If it fits all the rules, like only one question instead of multiples, hasn't been asked or answered before, you might get it answered then. The Community Manager here also goes over that entire thread and either gives links to previous answers or follows up on ones that need attention. Discord it just gets lost in the scroll by.

The ones that have No NDA are the ones you're allowed to talk, stream, anything.
Maybe in the future there will be additional A1 testing phases that might be under NDA (like spot testings), we do not know yet.
But A1 should have it's NDA fully lifted, yes since that has always been the deal.

If I wasn't paying close attention, I may've accidentally clicked Pay Now

Only Intrepid's official support can help with account recovery (besides the automated system)

Pretty frustrating that they cannot seem to respond, and when they do its “try the recovery link” which does not send me anything

weird

since the discord linking system goes through whatever account you are logged into on your browser account
gleaming acorn
so maybe Google Chrome has the other Rhoklaw info and it's messing with my Discord account
just not entirely sure how that other info got into my Google Chrome

its not that deep
just make sure your browser discord is signed into the same account as your discord app discord

I think following the "Not You?" link may have fixed it, because I disconnected my accounts and when I went to connect them again, the correct Rhoklaw was the first to popup

Yup, that prompt is included to make sure that you're logged into the proper Discord account on your browser first 😄

no i don't think it should be. i think it would hurt the image if they delay the game for no real reason, other than getting more views on twitch

Was just curious because I was watching an Asmon stream and they were discussing it. It seems very.... odd that Blizzard is releasing TBC extremely quick and during AoC testing times. If im going full tinfoil I would say Blizz is trying to make sure they shadow any promising competition they see considering the hype around Ashes
but more realistically its just Blizzards awful management
civic obsidian
id say you are just tinfoil and this is for question, please take discussion in #aoc-discussion
desert ivy
I doubt it. There's no reason for Blizzard to try and overshadow Ashes Alpha 1. If anything, they would want more people to see it as Alpha 1 is meant to be incredibly barebones. Most people don't understand what Alpha 1 is, they think it's like a Korean Alpha where the game is done and it's just marketing, so when they see Ashes alpha 1 a lot of people will be disappointed because it isn't anywhere close to complete
spiral torrent
The main reason Blizzard is releasing TBC this early is because 9.1 is super delayed and they need to keep the subs going for Q2.

OH nevermind I'm dumb :v
It blended in with the other stuff haha

if you have a pack you will only see upgrades and individual cosmetic purchases

If we are taking part in the May 14th - 21st test, are we able to Live Stream it? Or are we under NDA?
near stump
No NDA for that test. You may stream it
toxic dragon
Awesome, Thank you!
near stump
Anything you learn before May 14th is under NDA however
toxic dragon
Understood.
worthy scarab
Are there any stress tests planned for non alpha users?
desert ivy
No
near stump
Not at the moment. If there are in the future, you will get an email if you have a key that warrants this
tulip hatch
For the general public?
There has been no plans made for an open beta test or stress test

Will there be any way to know what the current XP is of the node?
They have showed a placeholder UI for this, I'll try to find it
Here it is
You will be able to access this info from your Node

Sorry milestones
near stump
Node progression is only limited if there is a parent node a single level above the node in question.
grizzled latch
No number to next progression because they don't want people on the mind set of " we need to kill exactly 25448 goblins to level up the node".
worthy citrus
ok but just to make sure, grinding on the goblins is the way to go right???
midnight lotus
my role still says member even though I purchased access to alpha one how can i get that changed

stable plover

At least up to level 3 nodes, and probably very heavily involved after that, some particular resources (lumber, stone, etc.) might be required up in the higher levels (I think the quotes we have from Intrepid could be interpreted either way on that).
grizzled latch
have they revamped the content creator process yet or is that still under construction?
arctic sky
Still under construction last they said
iron spade
why does this current preorder pack offer alpha 1 acces when others only offered alpha 2?
crystal flax
Because they only just recently re-opened A1 sales
dense fossil
for the Brine armor: is the cape animated? and is it seperate from the chest peice?

Because they only just recently re-opened A1 sales
so its just tough luck if u dont like this months pack but liked the others more
crystal flax
If you already had the highest tier pack, there's an upgrade option just to get A1
(and a few other things I should clarify that)
stable plover
If you didn't get the packs then and immediately want A1, yes. You can upgrade an old pack by paying the difference in price, keeping the cosmetics the old pack had

do we have a date on alpha 2 then :p?

no

We do not. A1 might have test sessions after June 30th, June 30th is just as far out as dates are announced.

@abstract bolt you will want to follow these instruction.
Oh if it is a regular package as well that is not A1 then you would want to Ctrl+F5 as well possibly and sometimes it takes a few minutes to update.
Also logging out and back in.
abstract bolt
Ok thx
rigid rose
yup if you do not see after a bit please let us know and will try to help out more

Ill check again later

Hey. I'm aware that for the May 14th testing for alpha one will not have EU servers (at least what the wiki says).
Will it be possible to switch servers after the wipe and such for June 1st alpha one?
desert ivy
Well you won't have your character from the May test, so you'll just need to select the EU server when it goes live
sly oriole
there will be a post in the <#270797463907074048> when the thread goes live
oh ok thank u

Testing is wiped between each phase so you'll lose your character on the NA server anyway

Yeah I know but I was thinking my account would stay in NA
That's what I was talking about
desert ivy
No. You'll be able to move between servers freely

Gotcha

You can make characters in multiple servers in multiple regions on the same wipe. There’s no restriction to a single server.

I was following the directions on the Alpha One Testing, and seeing what my Roles were on my Profile. It doesn't say I own Alpha One but I preordered it in July of 2020.

Mmmm how long would it take for me to get the ALpha 1 role was hoping I could link discord and that to get the role since I bought the A1 pack
jaunty fox
The linking for me was near instant, but I would recommend shutting down discord completely and rebooting it once the linking has been done
plucky pawn
Please make sure you've followed all of the steps in order, step 1 is important to seeing your role update!
(on the forums, that is)
merry acorn
Yea nah im a member still
oh ok
well better find that then But yea did the full restart thing a few times and yea nah not there
plucky pawn
You need to log out of and back into the forums directly first. You can do so from the cog wheel in the top right corner.

Yea nah still member

Hit Ctrl+F5. I see your roles have updated.

haughty jolt
Is anyone on Alpha 1 playing from Australia?
near stump
Possibly. Servers likely won't be located in OCE for Alpha 1 though
haughty jolt
Yeah thats why Im asking, because I want to know how bad the ping is, I dont wanna spend my money if i cant even play it
But when i play on wow NA servers the ping isnt that bad at all
near stump
No one would know that yet. Alpha 1 non NDA doesnt start until May 14th
haughty jolt
what does that mean?
near stump
I'll let a mod take over @stable plover
stable plover
what does that mean?
Non-disclosure agreement, the Australian people can't currently tell you their ping
I suppose you could ask someone about how their experience with ping was in a test session from like a year ago....
haughty jolt
But, surely they can tell me if it's playable from Australia?
near stump
The NDA prevents people from talking about anything in-game. The NDA lifts in 7 days, so you could ask the OCE guilds then
We only know what the employees of the company disclose to us
proven arrow
I used to play Apoc the BR with my friend from NZ and he played on like 200 ms
chrome copper
I'd say safe to guess the ping being between 200-350ms from anywhere in Aus
proven arrow
350 seems extreme
viral torrent
When the NDA gets lifted, people can talk about the test that takes plays on May 14, not previous tests that were under NDA
chrome copper
Northern Australian internet often gets routed through the southern states, so I've experienced 350ms a lot unfortunately hehe
velvet plover
Without yet being able to test, i'd assume equivalent to GW2 for australians.
viral torrent
But I guess you can ask Punthulhu about his latency during Apoc
proven arrow
Ouch
worthy schooner
Apoc had SEA servers that worked fine, just had no pop due to most aussies crying about small matches and going to NA
near stump
We'll see it in just over a week so I'd recommend patience over guessing
velvet plover
I think they said OCE on launch awhile back so that's awesome at least.
near stump
I think they said OCE on launch awhile back so that's awesome at least.
Yup! OCE servers will be available upon launch
Located in Australia most likely
velvet plover
Yeah OCE isn't big enough for a limited and secluded player base to play with each other.
But if it's opened to everyone, then it'll be healthy.
by everyone i mean public access for OCE in general
worthy schooner
Yeah OCE isn't big enough for a limited and secluded player base to play with ea...
It will have when the game releases, just most aussies and players in general weren't interested in APOC
And rather the mmo
We're all here for the MMO not br

I personally hateeeeeeeee battle royales, so i chose not to play in it.
I believe i did have access.
