Alpha-2 is known as the persistent alpha.[8][54]
- Q: What systems are still needed to be rolled out before Alpha two?
- A: I don't think it's at a core level that there's a particular system that has yet to be feature developed. Right now, it's more along the lines of expanding on those features, getting UI support for those features... UI, VFX, audio effects: Those are all big bottlenecks because they tend to occur at the end of the pipeline of content development; and then also ensuring that the interactions are polished and working. So from a large feature perspective- let me think about that, what large feature endeavor is still outstanding on the Alpha-2 front? A lot of it is content. I'm not sure that it's a feature one. I can't think of any large system features that haven't been stood up from a core functional perspective that don't just need expanding on, slash content development on.[55] – Steven Sharif
- Q: And when you say content, that's like art and implementation and so on?
- A: Narrative quests, the assets, the modelling, the particular types of buildings, the armor sets, the creatures, the visual effects, audibility systems. Those are all content that accompany what the code is creating from a mechanical perspective.[56] – Steven Sharif
Alpha-2 core features list.[4]
Alpha-2 is known as the persistent alpha.[8][54] Persistent means that the Alpha-2 servers will be kept up all day and night until launch.[6][8]
- Alpha-2 servers will become the public test servers (PTS) post-launch that are used to test patches and updates.[59][57][8]
- Alpha-2 will remain even post launch as our public test server.[59] – Steven Sharif
- The ultimate goal for A2 is to be persistent and the PTS, but before we get that far there's gonna be some wipes I would expect.[57] – Steven Sharif
Alpha-2 availability
Phase | Release | Estimated/Actual date |
---|---|---|
Alpha | Alfa-2 (kitartó alfa).[8][54] | - |
Tulnar race
The Tulnar race is expected to be in place for Alpha-2.[32]
- Concept Art was released July, 2022.[60]
- 3D models may be released in 2023.[25]
Naval content will be introduced into Alpha-2 as an update.[40][62][5]
- Naval will be an Alpha-2 in the sense that at after we launch Alpha-2, at some point in Alpha-2, naval will be implemented as an update; and that naval will be the ability to acquire components, construct those components, acquire recipes, construct certain types of ships, navigate those ships on the water, and engage in certain ship-to-ship interactions and ship-to-player interactions and ship-to-content interactions. Now, it won't be the aspect of that, meaning all ships won't be present: all types of those ships, all attachments of those ships. And it will be maybe a little bit janky to start because it's going to be an alpha version of it. But the intent there is to provide the loop where players get to go and interact with content in the ocean. That won't be at the start of Alpha-2, but it will be in Alpha-2.[40] – Steven Sharif
- Naval warfare.[5]
- Naval raid bosses.[62]
- Three ship classes will be present in Alpha-2.[5][41]
Emblem, logo and symbol editor
The user interface will allow emblems, logos and symbols to be designed in-game.[66][67][51]
- Q: Do nodes provide their citizens some kind of clothes or ornaments, capes, tabards, or something that they can basically represent their node?
- A: I mean technically the node does have a sigil or insignia and there will be certain armors that you can customize insignia and/or symbols on, so yes you could probably achieve that.[68] – Steven Sharif
- Emblem editor functionality is tentatively planned for Alpha-2.[51]
Alpha-2 NDA
Alpha-1, Alpha-2, Beta-1, Beta-2 releases are not covered by NDA (non-disclosure agreement).[72]
- Alpha-2 testing prior to the full release of Alpha-2 will be under NDA.[73]
- Alpha-1 testing prior to the full release of Alpha-1 was covered by NDA.[74][75]
- The developers will not necessarily announce when NDA testing starts.[76]
- We may not always announce when the NDA testing is, because we're not definitive how that testing is going to influence the future testing schedule; and we don't want to set the wrong expectation from a broader audience perspective on what they should be expecting with regards to testing.[76] – Steven Sharif
Early access
Ashes of Creation testing phases.
- Alpha-0 was the invite-only "raffle" friends and family alpha test phase.[78][79]
- Alpha-1, Alpha-2, Beta-1, and Beta-2 were available for purchase during the Kickstarter and Nyári crowdfunding campaigns.[77]
- Alpha-1 was available in the Intrepid pre-order pack and the Adventurer pre-order pack.[80][81]
- Alpha-2 and Beta-2 were available during PAX West 2017.[82][83]
- Alpha-2, Beta-1, and Beta-2 were available in Pre-order packs on the cosmetic store.[84][85]
- Alpha-2, Beta-1, and Beta-2 packs that were purchased through Mail.ru can gain access to the testing periods they were entitled to by registering an account with Intrepid Studios and submitting a support ticket.[86]
Ashes of Creation's core game systems are expected to be in place at the start of Alpha-2.[4][5] By the end of Alpha-2, the game is expected to be feature complete, but it will not be content complete until launch.[6][7]
- Alpha-1 and Alpha-2 testers may be invited to participate in spot testing prior to the Alpha-2 release.[52][53]
- The game will be feature complete before Beta... Beta really is intended to identify last minute bugs to make sure that everything is ready for launch; it's important that all features are complete by Beta-1. Alpha-2 will not be feature complete at the start of Alpha-2. There are going to be updates that are going to be incorporated as part of the Alpha-2 process and there are going to be additional features that come online that get fleshed out between that time and Beta-1. There's going to be regions of the maps that aren't going to be accessible of course during Alpha-2.[7] – Steven Sharif
- Alpha-2 is intended to exist up until launch. There's going to be different testing periods that we will be releasing either new content locations or zones or systems that we want to have players focus in on. In those situations, if we're having participation drought because of the length of Alpha-2, we can set them up in a more focused setting. We can even incentivize that. We can offer unique testing to potentially new testers as well.[6] – Steven Sharif
Pre-order packs
Pre-order packs were available from the Kinézeti Bolt up until they ended on January 17, 2024 at 11:00 a.m. Pacific.[84][85]
- Wayfarer pre-order pack (History).
- Expeditionary pre-order pack (History).
- Voyager pre-order pack (History).
- Voyager plus pre-order pack (History).
We offer cosmetics for players who wish to support the project early. The exclusive nature of the limited availability is something I think collectors value. If you buy cosmetics as an MMO player, I know I enjoyed if the cosmetic is rare and not every girl at the party is wearing the same dress. In addition, these cosmetics are used to populate the world through NPC variants and color/texture changes so their offering aligns with our production schedule. The good thing about these packs is they contain no P2W advantages and there is no box cost, so from a mechanics standpoint you do not need to buy them to excel in the game on launch. And also, there are comparable and subjectively more grand cosmetics achievable in game as well.[87] – Steven Sharif
Participation
- Alpha-0 had over 2,500 participants.[88]
- Alpha-1 testing had approximately 9,600 participants as of August, 2018.[89][90] There were slightly over 13k participants as of May 31, 2021.[89] There were 5,300 unique logins during the 3 day weekend test of May 27, 2021.[89]
- Alpha and Beta participation is expected to grow with the sale of pre-order packs.[91]
- Alpha-2 is expected to have over 100,000 participants.[92][93]
Server wipes
Alpha and Beta servers will be wiped prior to launch.[58]
As a general rule, if the testing phase contains the word Alpha, it is safe to assume there will likely be wipes.[57] – Steven Sharif
