Ashes of Creation Dev Tracker

do you have an automated group search system? so that solo players can participate and guilds can complete their raids?

There will not be an automated group gathering system. Instead, there will be things such as the Bulletin Boards, which allow players to find other players to form groups for the content they're wanting to do!

There were some requests for the Dev Discussion asset without the Dev Discussion text.

So, here that is for you!

Glorious Ashes community - it's time for another Dev Discussion! Dev Discussion topics are kind of like a "reverse Q&A" - rather than you asking us questions about Ashes of Creation, we want to ask YOU what your thoughts are.

Our design team has compiled a list of burning questions we'd love to get your feedback on regarding gameplay, your past MMO experiences, and more. Join in on the Dev Discussion and share what makes gaming special to you!

Dev Discussion - Boss Mechanics
What are your favorite and least favorite boss mechanics for small and large group content in MMORPGs? Do you have any memorable fights, and if so, what made them special?

it was stated several months ago by steven that spot testing would be starting within the next several months, we are now several months past this date and not a word has been said about this, even though i have seen multiple questions for the monthly live streams about this, this leads me to believe that spot testing is currently already happening probably under an NDA or it just wont happen at all given A2 is only 6 months off, my concerns are, if this has not started yet, will this be offered to everyone that purchased a 500$ + bundle to support the game or will it be offered to streamers only wich is what i would guess is happening, i think that when this starts everyone should have a equal chance of jumping into testing the game weather you bought the bundle or not

I want to provide some clarity and perhaps assist with some misconceptions ^_^

I appreciate the post!

This is certainly a topic that has come up before and we know it is important! :)

We want to make the Tank Archetype and Tank Classes feel impactful and fun to play in both PvE and PvP. We're excited to show off more of the Tank kit, and the Tank in PvP action as soon as it's ready! ^_^

For the time being, seeing your thoughts and opinions on this subject certainly helps the team! ;)

I think "hype" is the wrong feeling to have at this point. I want to reserve my hype for the lead-up to the actual launch. Now I'm just enjoying the dev process and thinking about all the different potential and possibilities.

I work in design IRL and use Blender, Unreal Engine and Adobe for Architectural and Interior Design renders. The idea of being able to sit down and create a sandbox world in which people can play is super captivating. I think many of us who are following along share a similar... Wouldn't it be cool if? type of thought process. It's creative and fun at the end of the day.

Also. Designing for real life is boring, haha, Nobody wants to build cool castles or fantasy houses. :D

It's always nice and reassuring to see those who appreciate and enjoy our open-development approach ^_^

I can totally relate to that feeling of thinking to yourself "Wouldn't i... Read more

Very neat thought starters and art to look through here ^_^

Any self-made creations? 👀

As some have pointed out here, the game is very much so still a work in progress, and has not had any polishing done to the final appearance, especially with some aspects you mention, OP!

With that said, we still appreciate the feedback, and the team is working very hard to make the best game we possibly can ^_^

There is no release date at this time for Alpha Two!

Whether you purchase a pack, and when you may do so is totally up to you!

If you're unsure about this pack, then you can wait to see what the next pack is!

I'll also link you to the wiki, where you can likely find the answers to some questions you may have about the game, or even about past packs! https://ashesofcreation.wiki/
