    @Fooshyy , Stop the BAN HAMMER. You pride yourself in acting a 13 year old girl on discord. You are not in a position to ban anyone. In fact .....
    I’m pretty sure the only one to talk about banning in this thread is you.

    And don’t drag Discord drama into the forums please. We don’t need that stank round here.

    I say no to getting the alpha started. They're not ready. Reiterate. The infastructure is not ready. Infastructure meaning the code that interacts with everything. The client, the mobs, the physics, the matchmaking, the instancing. All that. We'll see 30 people on 1 server in a big open area, littered with memory leaks and just generally no content.

    So then what? "Screw the MMORPG" right? It's Doo Doo. I'd rather they get alpha 1 good and ready to go. Prepped with all the content and a backend pretty baked to make sure people have the best possible first impression of the MMORPG.

    That's why you do it in parts, what you have ready you test it like they are doing with the PvP parts. What can be tested now in my mind is the following.
    1. Caravans lets make sure we don't see them tipping over going between points a and B, and see how the PvP part workouts.
    2. NPC interactions, and quest giving. Let's make sure you don't get broken quest lines, saw this issue in SWG still two years after gold.
    3. Environment vs players, how it works with or against us while traveling between places.
    4. Dungeons can they work as planned, let's find out.

    Many of these things were shown off a couple of years ago, so you're telling me right now they can do this again? I figure it should be a lot smoother and polished. Guys all I am saying is, why can't there be an alpha testing area, that's not just a PvP zone, one that has at least 3 cities, and most of what we will see in the final product. I am not asking just to get to play the game, I am asking so I can see what is going on with this game. Videos are ok, but sometimes you need more than just videos, even if you just testing how the INNs will work in a small area, it's still something to do besides just talking.

    The funny thing is that they already are pretty far in terms of caravan transportation and mmorpg gameplay.

    Alpha 1 was available until September 2018 when Interpid stopped the sales in order to keep the number of participants in A1 under 10,000
