Alpha Tester’s Responsibilities


With the upcoming Alpha Two Wave Bundles, new players will soon have the chance to access and test the game in development. As a potential participant, I have a few questions what responsibilities and actions will be expected from us by the developer.

If any players or moderators have more detailed information on what to expect during the testing phase, I would be happy to listen.

Here are some general questions I have for example:
- In what way will the primary feedback, including bug reports, be submitted?
- Since most game content is distributed through the developer’s official channels, will testers be under NDA??
- Are the servers for the Alpha test all located in California, or are they already partially distributed across other planned regions, such as Europe?

If you have something to share close to the topic, please don't be shy. And thanks in advance for your answers!

    Intrepid has clarified that they will send out surveys for feedback after tests during Phase 1.

    Testers currently testing before Oct 25th are under NDA.

    Servers aren't actually in Cali afaik, but someone who knows better should clarify.
    Sorry, my native language is Erlang.

    /bug is one way to report. I'm sure we will get more information in the coming weeks.

    I assume the dedicated discord channels will have clarifications etc.

    - they said in the last stream that they have in-game reporting too. So you open a dialog and type your finding
    - no NDA for Alpha 2: https://ashesofcreation.wiki/Alpha-2
    - some servers will be located in Europe too
