Alpha-2 character creator user interface (first pass).[1]

Alpha-2 is intending to be obviously a very large chunk of the game's mechanics: a very very big percentage of it.[2]Steven Sharif

Se espera que para la Alpha-2 de Ashes of Creation haya un porcentaje elevado del sistema de juego.[2]

Los testers del Alpha-1 y el Alpha-2 puede que sean invitados a testeos puntuales anteriores al lanzamiento del Alpha-2.[31]

El Alpha-2 será persistente.[32][33]

Se sabe que la Alpha-2 será persistente.[32][33] Esto significa que los servidores de la Alpha-2 estarán siempre disponibles hasta el día del lanzamiento.[32]

  • Habrá tiempos sin disponibilidad para parchear[34]
  • Puede haber reseteos de personaje y de testeo.[35][32]
  • Los servidores de la Alpha-2 pasarán a ser los servidores de testeo públicos (PTS) después del lanzamiento que serán usados para probar parches y nuevas actualizaciones.[35][32]

Alpha-2 will remain even post launch as our public test server.[36]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.[35]Steven Sharif

Raza Tulnar

La raza de los Tulnar estará disponible para el Alpha-2. Concepts and early works are expected at that time.[15]

Contenido Naval

Habrá contenido naval en la Alpha-2.[46][2]

Emblem, logo and symbol editor

The user interface will allow emblems, logos and symbols to be designed in-game.[49][50][30]

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.[51]Steven Sharif

NDA del Alpha-2

Los lanzamientos de las Alpha-1, Alpha-2, Beta-1, Beta-2 no tenían NDA (non-disclosure agreement).[55]

Early access

Ashes of Creation testing phases.

Ashes of Creation's core game systems are expected to be in place at the start of Alpha-2.[68][2] By the end of Alpha-2, the game is expected to be feature complete, but it will not be content complete until launch.[69][34]

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.[34]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.[69]Steven Sharif
  • The developers will not necessarily announce NDA testing periods.[39]

Pre-order packs

Pre-order packs were available from the Tienda cosmética up until they ended on January 17, 2024 at 11:00 a.m. Pacific.[65][66]

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.[70]Steven Sharif

Participación

  • La Alpha-0 tuvo unos 2.500 participantes.[71]
  • La Alpha-1 tuvo aproximadamente 9,600 participantes en Agosto de 2018.[72][73] Hubo algo más de 13k participantes en Mayo de 2021.[72] Hubo 5300 inicios de sesión únicos durante las pruebas del fin de semana de 3 días del 27 de Mayo de 2021.[72]
  • Se espera que la participación tanto en las Alpha como en las Beta aumente con la venta de los packs de pre-venta.[74]
  • Se espera que la Alpha-2 supere los 100.000 participantes.[75][76]
info-orange.pngEsta sección se actualizará tan pronto como los desarrolladores pongan a disposición la información.

Server wipes

Los servidores de las Alpha y Beta serán reseteados antes del lanzamiento.[37]

  • Los servidores podrán ser reseteados antes de testeos individuales.[77][78][35]

As a general rule, if the testing phase contains the word Alpha, it is safe to assume there will likely be wipes.[35]Steven Sharif
