there is no news on what citys the servers will be in

yes. Because I wasn't answering your question. Sorry mate, I don't have the answer

i was referring to ninja
tender epoch
oh, now I am confused xD
ancient egret
that doesnt answer my question
to 1 of your questions yes you can all be in 1 node if you can somehow get all 10k to be there at the same time the server would most likely crash but you can
meager cliff
ok interesting.. cuz Atlas marketed in a way where they said it would be possible to have x amount of players in the same realm but then they had zones where it was only possible for 40 people to be in each zone which actually was annoying for big clan fights

did you read what i wrote i said players in alpha 1
the 500v500 was the render thing
meager cliff
which video do you mean ?
ancient egret
i dont know if there is any vids of it perhaps some streamer have a vid or some random youtuber
the alpha 1 did not have a nda so you can just got watch some vids of it
bruh
there was some streamer that got 5000 ish in the same node
? well shit i was lied to then cuss he said they had 5000 in the same node
well you can but the server most likely would crash
arctic sky
which video do you mean ?
Honestly they are working towards their goals of having large concurrent numbers of players in the same general area. They have shown different levels of things like the accidental too many bears spawned to the sieges and bots fighting (which honestly was a great step to showing that it could be rendered to say the least). Some things will take time but progress is shown constantly.

as long as its possible to have at least 50vs50 it should be fine

Will AOC have cat-like Animorphic races as seen in D&D "Leonin" or EQ "Vah Shir" or ESO "Khajiit" or GW2 "Charr"?
Yeah, curious how deep that customization will go" Players will have dials to adjust the reptilian, mammalian, humanoid, and other attributes of their Tulnar character in the Character creator. Mammalian Tulnar may have snout features, fur and inverted knees"
Yeah, thanks

Inverted knees for the win. Gimme

@obsidian knoll since more and more people are leaving twitter and facebook. can you consider adding a different social media to your repertoire?
valid bobcat
I would have preferred to keep chat apolitical but, the point is that most of those with the exception of discord/forums are leftist dominated organizations that have overbearing censorship and manipulation. So there are a growing number of people who put their morals above convenience and don't use them. I was just trying to ask for an alternative without instigating any political discourse. Because I think most of us would agree, we would prefer to not have that infect our gaming too.

Guys, before asking if an A2 date was revealed, take that in consideration:
Before we get into A2, those things are still to be revealed to us:
1: Character Creation screen (possibly planned for this month)
2: User Interface (UI)
3: Alpha-2 footage
4: Spot tests
At the speed they reveal things, that’s mean do not expect it before a minimum of four months … and that if I do not forget anything so it can be and will be probably much longer than that…
subtle hemlock
Yup, tulnar is a playable race
Sweet thanks im most excited to see how they look that will be the race I pick.
brazen fable
You should disregard any "time frame" that gives you actual units of time as speculation, because speculation is all we have at this point until Intrepid makes something official.
I would also urge people to stop making guesses on times and passing them off as information as to when to expect things. You don't know. End of story. Saying "it will be atleast X months" is going to set people up for expectations that won't be met.
This is a channel for answering questions, not making speculations. This is how bad information is created and people rage.

You still need to get the mule to the area you want to sell your stuff

I trust myself taking the goods to another town, more than I trust a CARAVAN, seems the CARAVAN convoys ALWAYS loose. Only way I see a CARAVAN surviving is if a GUILD puts together a CARAVAN and has ALOT to loose so they send a LARGE escort with them

Thank you very much i just wanted to have some long video so i can see the gameplay even tho it s gonna change

The only issue I see with family summons is being able to move entire guilds across the map. However this would only work for 2 spots on the map.
Or maybe just one spot. Guild could be set up somewhere on say one continent then have the 2nd spot set up wherever they choose

Will combat feature a series of cooldowns that you cycle through.. or will cooldowns be more strategic and use them according to the situation?
And ... will there be a mix of passive, spam and cooldown abilities? If all 3, do we have any idea on the %breakdown. I ask because a click spam fight is boring and cooldown cycles also get boring. IMO there needs to be a good mix of spam attacks, situational cooldowns and passive abilitys that proc
desert ivy
Can't really answer anything to do with the intricacies of combat atm cause they're reworking it completely
There will be passive and active abilities
oak loom
Too many cooldown options also gets frustrating and weird lol
Not options .. but readied cooldowns... like for me, I think it feels weird when in combat you have a full 8-10 toolbar icons of cooldowns.
desert ivy
Well the plan is that you'll be able to have up to 30 abilities if you put all your points into getting new abilities instead of strengthening your existing ones
But if you strengthen your existing ones then you'll have less abilities but more powerful ones
oak loom
Ahhh .. that's interesting. Seems like that could work well for people that want to have a full arsenal of abilities but also be for folks like me that just want to master 4-5 of them
AND it seems like it would be nearly impossible to see 4735675 meta builds because people would always be tweaking them to see how to get the advantage

“End Game” is whatever you want it to be. Some may want to have the most popular tavern on server and put considerable effort into the best yelp reviews. Just getting to level cap isn’t the final goal for anything. Level cap is just something you’ll ding somewhere along your journey towards being top at XYZ. It’ll be months before a metropolis on fresh servers and after a year when a metropolis is sacked and destroyed, months before another metropolis with all kinds of new experiences along the way. The “End Game” never ends. The ride doesn’t stop.

Thanks in advance to anyone with an answer for this! I was curious about how node progression happens within the node itself in relation to where the actual encampment/crossroads first starts. Will it be in the exact same place regardless of server or will town placement of each city in relation to specific nodes be different depending on which server it develops on. How exactly is the starting point placement decided? Is it randomly generated, predetermined, or does the initial experience the players earn for the node somehow make a difference for instance if the encampment first spawns on the coast of a node vs more inland on a river ect.

the node will be the same type no matter what and you dont decide where it gets placed
the placement is predetermined
abstract flare
I take it then that is also true no matter which server you are on...so while on one server the node may only ever advance to the town stage on another it may be a metropolis but exact geographical location within the node will always be the same. I guess my other question then would be node type...military, scientific ect...the same node on different servers will be of the same node type as well or could there be variance there?

a small addition to this answer: they might be changing what resources spawn in what node across servers. if they go with this option we could see a less static push for the "optimal" node on each server

I would guess they followed recent gamelaunches. But Im guessing it is very hard when it comes to server population and queues not to upset someone, atleast during a games launch.

Things that come to mind:
- Rather providing too many servers and downscale post-launch instead of the opposite way, making people still tied to their first choice
- Already building in the necessary systems for server transfers, because if they like or not, they will be needed eventually

It's better to start with less servers. Starting with too many in a game like Ashes is dumb and will lead to people quitting when their lower population server gets merged with a higher pop server and they lose all their nodes and the mayorships and their castles
Not all MMOs are as simple as PvE Themeparks like WoW or Lost Ark or FF14 where the world is exactly the same on every server and you can just merge them if the population drops
Queues should be expected by now with MMOs at launch. I don't know how people still aren't used to them
pale aspen
Queues yes, 5+ hours queues every day, no. I agree with the server merge being impossible. That's why I think plain character transfer availability is even more important
ancient egret
im pretty sure steven said server merges would be harder then server transfers why do you think they would do a server merger

Well, I do hope you are wrong about the character transfer. But I have faith, their data will tell them that eventually

- Will slashing damage be less effective against armored opponents, compared to blunt and piercing dmg?
- Does a sword for example inflict only slashing dmg or can it do piercing dmg. Or can spiked Warhammer do both piercing and blunt dmg?
- If node A declares war against node Z to aim to destroy it. Does node A have to conquer smaller nodes that are in a way to node Z? Like node X and node Y are in a way to node Z.
- Is a total war the only type of war? OR can A node only seize/conquer smaller border X and Y nodes of a metropolis node Z?
- Does weather/climate affect players. If it does, does it affect the races the same way?
random dagger
1. Will slashing damage be less effective against armored opponents, compared to...
1 and 2, all the physical damage is simply physical damage reduced by physical resistance(soory, its not kingdom come)
3 and 4 its not nodes the fight, nodes may be taken down, but theyre not actually war sides, rather guilds that run them, nodes might be objectives in the wars
5 it does affect players, changes resources, enemies and dungeons i think? spawning in the world as well as players crops, there was nothing on it affecting the character, rather world around them if i recall correctly

I think I know what you mean by "buy the game", but just to clarify, the game will be a no-box cost game. Meaning you don't need to buy it, you just pay a monthly subscription fee when it actually launches. The packages available right now should be viewed as "supporting" the on-going development of this game. Because you're essentially supporting the team and getting access to a development Alpha & Beta. Not a marketing Alpha/Beta (where the game is actually done, but the publisher labels it as a beta for people to spend more money).

they dont have any content on test realms they are meant for stuff like combat updates and stuff like that
to test if those would work or do a runescape
ruby swift
So, I will take that in the form of a question. Since the PTS will be its own server that will experience wipes and boosts based on their need, it will not reflect the environment on your particular server. Since each server has different content and nodes that have been leveled, trying to pigeonhole "I saw this, so this is what it is going to be on mine!" will in most cases not work. Those that farm PTS for meta and exploits will not have the same success they have in themepark mmos.

So I have a question about player vs player and toxic guild members. Let's say I set up a shop within the Zone of Influence of my guild's node. **Can fellow guild members attack me while I am in my shop or do I have some sort of protection against that? **
Thank you.

Has there been a discussion or confirmation if the character creator will be separated from the game ... or if you will be able to create your character before launch? I'd hate to lose precious "new server" time on creating my perfect Nikua Dwarf

No real point in buying now unless you really like the cosmetics. You might as well wait until we get closer to Alpha 2 and they reveal more footage so you can see if it's something you're interested in helping to test

Are there any plans later on to hold community contests, to make a concept for a cosmetic or something similar? I’d love to see the community being able to make armors and weapons, because some people are so talented in making cool looking stuff.
ruby swift
They have had various contests in the past with different kinds of prizes, including testing access, cosmetics, and sometimes irl merch. Doubt you will see a design contest, since they have sold some "design your own ........" in the higher end KS and Summer packages years ago which still have yet to be acted upon. Also then they run into those that would try to claim "ownership" of their creations without some very clears terms of participation, thus creating a huge headache for very little return.

I do hope they find a way to do it, it’s great community feedback in what they’d want to see and it’s great interaction.

Have they decided how they will mark off the edges of the map? Maybe right now an invisible wall, but is there going to be a inworld explanation as to way players cant go further. Like is there a dense fog where fighting in there is much harder with monsters strong enough to take out even the strongest guild, or is it uninhabitable with dangerous hazards every 5 steps that no spell or potion can heal with their limited knowledge?
I hope not, nothing pisses off a payer more than seeing something really cool in the distance and just not being able to get to it because dev said no.
I can even imagine “reclam territory” type server wide events to explain why the map is getting bigger. Like hordes of monsters are rushing in, hold them off. Or donations to help build some grand machine, some of which must be fought for.
I understand that, but I’m just sitting here curious as to what former mmo players who got fed up plan. There needs to be more fans making their own thing to contribute to what they love. Hearing how development is going it’s clear there’s tons of passion

Your primary archetype dictates your abilities. Your secondary archetype dictates your augments. So a Shaman would be a Cleric + Summoner. This means you'd only have Cleric spells but those spells would be augmented by the Summoner's augments

Yeah I was reading up on the weapons which led me to wonder if they were starting to plan any other weapon types.
strong holly
Random question: in the lore, the 4 main races (split into 2 of each), all lived on Verra before the fall, and of course Ashes takes places as the races have returned to Verra. My question is whether the racial cities will exist in Verra as described in the lore, or will they be ruins? If they do exist, how will they compare to nodes?
full badger
The return to Verra happens thousands of years after the departure, so ruins are more likely to be seen than still standing cities @strong holly
short flint
There are areas of ruins already shown in previous A1 gameplay footage. Dungeons that are built into old architecture. I am not sure if the lore in A1 hinted as to who owned them or something like that - but it DOES exists. What it means and what their stories are is probably something we won't see until launch as they probably don't want to tell the story too much before launch.
strong holly
So I just looked at the lore and it appears the recordings of the races take place 25 years BEFORE the fall
So ruins seems very likely
Should be cool to stumble upon the old dwarven capital

During the great calamity that befell Verra, the inhabitants of Dünheim elected to remain in their mountain keep. This didn't work out well for them. In the wake of the destruction many artifacts and treasures were left behind.[59]

I have a question about PLAYER HOUSING. Don't think it's been updated on AOC wiki. I recall several month to a year ago Steven doing a video and talked about it and either they were still deciding or had decided on only One STATIC HOUSE per account, instead of one per character, otherwise you could have all your characters have an a house in every level 3 and up TOWN
I know that you can only have 1 FREEHOLD per account
dark jungle
the information on the wiki is current
tender hearthBOT
finite mesa
Yes I read that already. But after recalling what I remember Steven saying in his video it seems that it might not be the case. Because I believe that he said your account can only ever be attached to one node, or that your account can only have One Static House. But I guess Well have to wait and see
dark jungle
When they change their plans from "might" to definite it will be reflected. But as it stands it is per-server per character for static housing and apartments.
And no, he said that your citizenship can only be attached to one node. Not your house.
In order to get citizenship in a node, you have to have player housing there first.
swift shuttle
Housing isn't finalized. Nodes aren't even finalized. We will need to wait for a definite answer. Anything steven says is subject to change

Have they mentioned adding spell casting animations to different weapons? Say you're using fireball and have a staff equipped, instead of casting the spell with your hands while holding the staff or sword, you start generating the spell effects on you and the weapon then as you send it, the spell travels down in a pulse along the length of the weapon and fires off the end of the weapon

Ok cool thank you @dark jungle And I'll do that when I finish work thank you @minor ruin
desert ivy
The issue with having lots of different and unique animations is the budget and dev time. I remember a year or so ago someone asked a question like whether the different races would have different animations for the spells and Jeff said that while that is something they'd love to do, it would require a much bigger animation team and it just isn't feasible with their current budget
minor ruin
The issue with having lots of different and unique animations is the budget and ...
That’s the expected response. Especially when you factor in every class being able to use every weapon. The list of extra animations gets pretty long
dawn trail
Of course, project creep is a real thing. We can just present ideas and they can decide what to do. I feel some of features of UE5 allowing shared animations as a base that can be modified could make this possible but yeah, up to the team. We all want the game asap haha, but we also want it to be the best MMO to date which takes time and I'm glad they are doing it right

Getting into animal husbandry, my original thought was that you could crossbreed species into a new subspecies (cat x dog = catdog).

Info mainly based on A1 and could change: Players started with the most basic version of mining/herbalism/lumberjacking/fishing trained which allows you to harvest the resources in area around starting portal which exists outside of node system. Still had to acquire the tool to do so though, which had a quest to direct players towards it, that could be done at level 1 (after killing about 10 mobs to afford the tool). Resource tier 2 spawned around T1 nodes, resource T3 spawned around T2 nodes. Resource T4 spawned around T3 nodes. See https://ashesofcreation.wiki/Gathering

Here's a more specific question, I don't know if there's already an answer 😄
Just read the Kickstarter Texts again
It is mentioned at Races & Classes that Quote: "Our goal here is to create a system where an elven fighter feels different, but serves the same role as a dwarven fighter."
Do we already have an example for this? Or is that still in progress since they still work on the combat system?
Does anyone know what exactly that means?
That the races just have different attributes or maybe just the animations look a little different?
Or should the skills really behave differently?
dark jungle
skills are not affected by race is what that means
you do get different starting stats from different races but fighters from different races have the same sets of skills

What happens when one server is really low populated for some reason
My assumption is we can server transfer at will and keep everything except guild and node.

Yes, IS will try not to have this problem arising in the first place.
Server transfers wont be that easy as u assume ( server transfers wont be a common thing and will likely just be possible if its needed because the server gets merged w/e)...

A server merge is different than a voluntary transfer. They have yet to give clarification on their plan for server merges after launch in the case of low pop. They have just said they have a plan, it is a good plan, and they are sticking to it.

Most likely it’ll be a free transfer, but you’ll lose some of your stuff. Unless it gets soul bound so you can’t sell it.
(Only for dying servers and other specific cases)

They originally said they would be able to throttle the rates at which nodes lvl/develop if a server has lower population. Not sure if that’s still in the cards but it is a possibility.

Ok, so for example, if one server will be called "Stars", and another called "sky". Do you plan to put one TAG for languages for the server?
In order to help communities to join and play together.
For example;
(German + english) Stars
(Spanish + english) Sky

At the moment there's no plan for that, as the game language is mostly written there's no need to filter down the playerbase that way. So people will be able to join whichever they want and it'll be upto players if they wish to keep to their native language community or branch out.

Okay, thanks :)

What about guild tabards?
ruby swift
There will be tabards in game. As to guild cloaks, there may be custom ones available, just not guild themed. Since the ones in the LoM tier are marked as KS exclusive. Further clarification and guidance needed.
Could there be an option to make say a guild cloak with a yellow duck on it, and your guild is called the Duck Cluckers that matches it, so you could say it is "guild themed?" Possibly.

The last we heard in 2018, Intrepid was talking about not locking the servers to a particular language but separating the EU region by language type (which sounds like tagging the servers by language but not strictly enforcing it) see https://ashesofcreation.wiki/Servers#Localization @rancid cypress

The devs do find people participating in their dev discussions where they ask the community a question helpful. Their currently asking for feedback on the appearance of the races https://forums.ashesofcreation.com/categories/aoc-general-discussion for example https://forums.ashesofcreation.com/discussion/51841/player-feedback-request-ren-kai-race-feb-2022#latest https://forums.ashesofcreation.com/discussion/51988/player-feedback-request-kaelar-female-feb-2022#latest It's also nice for you to just hang out with the community, show up for a livestream watch party, post some dank memes in general discussion, or bring up some theorycraft.

been thinking about it but when the game comes out do you have to buy it first and if your sub ends can you really not enter the game at all?
onyx knoll
There is no box cost for the game, only a subscription. And yes, like any other subscription-based game, you can only log on if your sub is active.

Stupid question here and almost guaranteed to have been asked before. If I buy the pre order pack. Does it give access straight away to the beta or would I need to wait for a phase? I can't wait any longer 😂

You have to wait for the beta 1 or 2 phase depending which you purchased. Right now we're waiting for the alpha 2 phase to begin.
rancid cypress
Yea thought so. Does all 4 packs give access to alpha 2?
No, only voyager packs give access to alpha 2

And guessing all 4 give beta?

Server number and availability will be determined closer to launch. Intrepid has internal numbers that will shift and move over the course of development. They can't tell you how many in each region, cause they don't even know yet.

I just checked on ExitLag and AoC is on the list. I might have to use it if ever I play on the next phase.

Can the skins gained from packs be applied right away or are they earned in game?
