What the title says

For me personally, it was the world of A0, as well as winning the Halloween costume contest and just building up friendships with a tonne of awesome people from very early on in developement.

Are there anything in particular that you guys are especially looking forward to?

    When I played APOC for the first time and won with the cheesiest of tactics. Survive through polymorphing and invisibility, then dark pacting into the red zones when it closed in while throwing fireballs into the middle :D

    I remember at the start of Apoc being around and Steven would play, trying to hunt him down before he died was always fun :)

    Yeah that was a blast. My guildmates and I would all ourselves GM Steven before the game started and bamboozle people :D

    I remember playing alpha 0 with some of the friends I made on the forums for the first time, now that was a great time.

    The dead do not squabble as this land’s rulers do. The dead have no desires, petty jealousies or ambitions. A world of the dead is a world at peace

    I actually only got to test a0 once, but it was all worth the wait and bugs

    I think I had the most fun at pax followed by our time in apoc.
  • Rem_Rem_ Member
    I didn't even know the MMO had a playtest for backers... o.o My most fun time would have to be the 2 days I actually got to try apoc before it sadly went down. For the better at least though, to fix backend. Of course it goes without saying talking to all these lovely people on the forums is nice too <3

    awwwwwwwww

    It is kinda sad, that you only found out about the playtest just before they closed it xD

    I will never forget some livestream moments... when Jeff didnt ate his cookie on stream but instead placed in on the corner of the table and kept looking at it. Also the icecream truck, pizza man, and water man randomly ringing the door mid stream. But most of all one particular livestream back in 2017 when they kittened our ears with scratching noises for over a hour. Meh i was holding headset with both hands away from my ears and they still hurted after. This all showed that theyr focus was on development and not creating the perfect livestream. Loved it! :D

    The testing was actually not for backers, but handpicked people as well as some random that got their spot through raffles <3

    Patiently waiting to make some good memories when the Alpha 1 persistent servers are up. In Archeage alpha I had a great time, and still look back at that with fondness. Hoping Ashes alpha will give the same experience :)

    I think my all time favorite moment was more of a series of moments.

    I really enjoyed the first Halloween contest. A lot of talent around here.

    The contest was a good time, probably my favorite. Everyone was trying so hard, and cheering eachother on. Really loved that.

    Most of the contests or times where the community was involved, sad to say there was more sad impactful moments than happy ones.

    The guild fair and summit were a blast
