Re: Alpha Two Second Wave Bundle 0€ for the release ?
Hello guys,
I have a stupid question i know
If i purchase the Alpha Two Second Wave Bundle now will i get a copy of the game for the final release ?
I see we will have 1 month play time .... is it a buy to play or a "rental as a free play game"
Sorry for my bad english
Hi Archohan! Your English is perfectly understandable, no worries!
To answer your question:
Yes, if you purchase the Alpha Two Second Wave Bundle, you will get a full copy of the game for final release. Ashes of Creation is a buy-to-play MMORPG, meaning you buy it once and then just pay a monthly subscription, similar to games like World of Warcraft.
The 1 month of game time included is for after the official launch, to cover your first month of subscription. It’s not a "rental" or temporary access, you truly own the game after buying the bundle.
Hope that clears it up! Let me know if you have more questions.
To add to @lamina5432 above, you also don't buy this game first and then pay the monthly subscription.
There is no up front purchase of the game. Once live, the subscription is the only required payment.

Unless anything has changed its supposed to be a game that has no box price, only a subsciption.

Re: The Problem With Ashes of Creation Biomes and More
We literally had collectible trees there. And every other person on the forums screamed about how amazing NW was with its "cut it all" tree design. And I was among the very few who were against that change. But Steven caved in and now he literally can't do this:GreatPhilisopher wrote: »dunno who cried about trees in A1 when the system wasnt even in the game
GreatPhilisopher wrote: »they dont need to be intractable
Because if every other tree in the game is choppable, but then suddenly there's some random ones that are not - it will not only confuse people, but also directly break the immersion.
And if you do make them gatherable - you're now creating another issue that I described in my initial comment, because I did exactly this
GreatPhilisopher wrote: »maybe actually read what is written first...
And addressed pretty much all the points you made - all of which come down to "it's still alpha, but I dislike that it's still alpha" (as we all do).
And if you wanna say "well, this was just feedback, so that Intrepid knows that their game is not finished" - I'd imagine they already do

Re: TTK Changes Have Shifted PvP Away From Skill — And It Shows
This covers the issue pretty well. Some people are just struggling to let go of the P2 experiences where you would press 2 buttons on dps classes and land a kill as a result. There might be an argument to be made that some of the dps classes need to be "slightly" deeper gameplay loops, but I don't want to upset anyone further.I'm not sure I could disagree more with a post. The old TTK was unbelievably low skill. The fights were so short that RNG crits and literally being the first person to start attacking weighed heavily in the outcome.
The new TTK is better in every single way imaginable. When the fights are longer and good players have more time to make superior decisions against bad players. You can also tell much easier who is actually good at the game when it takes more than 3-4 buttons to kill someone.
You could train a literal chimp to play mage at 600 spell power in the old TTK and he would be lethal.
Re: TTK Changes Have Shifted PvP Away From Skill — And It Shows
Can you provide more context/data please? It's unfortunately easy to just assume it's a matchup problem or something, since TTK is longer in some other games and those games let people 1v3 fine.

And there's no way you'd be able to jog/run across an entire continent. And what about food? And washing? And toilet breaks?
Or, as you say. We could just enjoy the game-world!
Re: [Fan Art] - Mobs and Mounts -A new Monthly Magazine about...Mobs and Mounts
"Mobs and Mounts" is a magazine… that doesn’t actually exist.
Well, except as a single, glorious cover page. Born as an inside joke among friends who share a passion for Ashes of Creation, this fake magazine became our way of immortalizing the wild adventures, hilarious bugs, and epic moments we’ve experienced in-game.
Each cover is a tongue-in-cheek tribute to the world of fantasy gaming — featuring three bold taglines, one outlandish monster or one over-the-top mount, and always, a wink to our own chaotic tales.
It’s our way of turning shared laughs, critical fails, and unexpected triumphs into something collectible.
In short, Mobs and Mounts is the magazine you’ll never find at a newsstand… but always in our memories.
"Mobs et Montures" est un magazine... qui n'existe pas.
Ou plutôt, il n'existe que dans notre imaginaire, et sur une seule page : sa couverture. Né d'une blague entre joueurs, ce faux magazine est devenu une tradition autour de notre passion commune pour Ashes of Creation.
Chaque couverture est une parodie affectueuse du monde de la fantasy, agrémentée de trois phrases d'accroche dignes des meilleures revues des années 80 : un monstre spectaculaire ou une monture improbable, et toujours, un clin d’œil à nos aventures, qu’elles soient épiques ou complètement buggées.
C’est notre manière de figer nos fous rires, nos échecs glorieux et nos moments de grâce dans l’univers foisonnant d’Ashes of Creation.
Bref, Mobs et Montures, c’est le magazine que vous ne trouverez jamais en kiosque… mais toujours dans nos souvenirs.

Re: individual shop
Hey FromBehind! Good question...
Intrepid actually has plans for player stalls and personal shops. Players will be able to rent stalls in cities or even set up their own shop stands in certain zones like freeholds (player housing plots). These systems are already part of the broader design they're aiming for.
Ask Unk said, read the wiki link that he copy here and there is everything
Since we’re still in Alpha, a lot of these systems aren’t fully live yet, but they’re definitely coming. Can’t wait to see how lively the world feels once people can set up their own mini-markets everywhere! (Like lineaje II) xd
