There are currently no announced dates for any upcoming testing phases. Keep an eye on the #news channel on discord and the forums to stay up to date!

I'd assume they would announce on one of their end of month update live streams as well, so make sure to catch those at the end of the month. I'd guess the next one will be July 29th.

I doubt it would be that fast, maybe towards the end of the year if we are lucky

They are not going to announce a "schedule". No.

There is a reason they have not announced anything. They do not know. They might have a 6 month window that they are shooting for when it comes to Alpha 2. If they do not have that window down to within 3 months, they certainly do not have anything beyond.

I honestly think Alpha 2 will be 2024. They have showed very little to make me think that all the systems they want to incorporate into that stage are within a year of being ready. I would go as far as to say some of the systems are barely even started.

I would of course love to be wrong...

I feel that is pretty optimistic. I hope you are right but I would not expect it. I feel we would have seen a lot more in the monthly Dev discussions around game play, if Alpha 2 were that close. Remember, we have not seen anything on the 5 other classes much less the secondary classes. Then throw in Crafting and new zones and quests for those zones, along with the new character combat system for the new untested classes. The Dev Discussions would have to be remarkable from this point on for us to have a chance at Alpha 2 by Jan 2023. I also would add that when we get within 6 months, that a date would most likely exist even if it had the (Can be pushed for any reason) attached to it. They want the hype but it has to be realistic.

You arent suposed to try and be realistic. Once people just start throwing out predictions its just price is right rules, and more and more predictions.

This is the list of things they want for alpha-2 I gave a green X for things they have showcased in the update videos and a question mark for the combat system as they showed some progress but still a lot more to go.

As you can see, there are quite a few Xs missing, so the beginning of 2023 is a bit too optimistic. My optimistic prediction is no earlier than 2024

Edit: This is just what I can remember from the monthly update videos. They may have completed more things but kept silent about it.

Thalrik

Super excited here for Alpha 2. I am sure they have done more than we know about. However, I hope they take their time. No need to rush the release for a game designed to last many years.

You assume they're going to show everything before A2. It's very possible most of these are out of design and into implementation and testing, like how we randomly found out in discord that all 4 node type benefits have been decided on for a while and they're just implementing and testing at this point. Also with 170 people working on the project I highly doubt it is more then a year away. But I could also be wrong.

Things will speed up significantly if they find and fill lead system dev, lead economy dev, and jeff's previous role. Current progress rate is due to a talent gap not their natural speed.

Dygz

We don't really know what their progress speed is, but...
Quite a bit of the delay has been due to upgrading to UE5 and significantly changing character models for Dunir, Py'Rai and Vek, revamping combat...and also significantly changing Node designs.
And... those are just the changes to the we know about.
