Hello everyone,
i would like to support Ashes of Creation with a pre order package.
My question is, when i buy the Voyager Plus Pre-Order Pack, when can i start testing the game?
The Release Shedule List does not answer my question sufficiently.
can someone please enlighten me?

    As they state nothing is definite and all is subject to change.
    My personal opinion is that as developing a game of such scale from scratch takes on average 7 years until the complete product is delivered and around 4-5 years for the beta version release, and also taking into account it all started in late 2017, I think mid 2022 is the latest date corresponding to your pack offer.
    Again let me stress this is my personal opinion and does not reflect any official statements.
    So far I am not outside of my prediction though...
    Also There is a thread called "Ashes Release Date Estimate Poll" where people are doing again in my opinion a good estimation.

    Hope this is helpful to anyone wondering about whether to purchase or not.

    If you purchase a pack, they'll notify you when it's time to start testing. You shouldn't miss it.

    You can't on your own. If you want a message of your deleted, you can use the report function and one of the mods will do it for you :)

    OP: The Voyager Plus Pre-Order Pack gives you access to Alpha 2, which will come sometime after Alpha 1. As shown in the release schedule we are due to start Alpha 1 next year, so Alpha 2 will start sometime after that, depending of course on how Alpha 1 goes and what is discovered during that time.

    I'm sorry we can't give you a more solid answer than that but games development is very fluid and unpredictable at times.
