Glorious Alpha Two Testers!

Alpha Two Realms are now unlocked for Phase II testing!

For our initial launch, testing will begin on Friday, December 20, 2024, at 10 AM Pacific and continue uninterrupted until Monday, January 6, 2025, at 10 AM Pacific. After January 6th, we’ll transition to a schedule of five-day-per-week access for the remainder of Phase II.

You can download the game launcher here and we encourage you to join us on our for the most up to date testing news.

hyped to play for years, regrettably, lost everything.

I tried to play ashes of creation yesterday Nov/08/2024; downloaded client, installed the game, started it up, selected new server NA, made a character, and tried to play.

game crashed at %5 of loading screen

that was my first time experience. which isn't too bad for an alpha game.

But now, my computer turns on and doesn't display. my monitor says no display then goes black.

I spent all day trying to get it working again.
-reseeded the ram, multiple time in different variances.
-pulled out the power supply and tested it, seems to work.
-pulled out my video card to see if it could use the onboard display port, still just black screen.
-removed all the wires to the mother board and pull out the cmos battery. put it all back together and still nothing.

R.I.P

motherboard: Asus Prim Z790-P
graphic card: Geforce RTX 4090 - 24GB GDDR6x
processer: intel core I9-13900KF
ram: Corsair Vengeance DDR5 ram 32GB
power supply: Corsair RM 1000e

One of the saddest days ever, due to the fact, I was extremely hyped for this game for years.
Then, to lose everything.

    That sucks, man.
    Does your MB display an error code or give a sound code?

    I have actually had cables fail after years of service so I would definitely swap out your HDMI/Dport cable.

    The closest thing to an error is, "no display" on the screen for a second before going black.
    I used a different monitor with a different display port wire. Same thing happened.

    Peripheral devices seem to work, the lights on them turn on and change color.
    The fans run and the lights are on.
    Liquid cooling systems lights and radiator fans are on.
    I detached all the wires to the motherboard yesterday, then reattached them.

    The indicator is power button light flashes fast(2-3 a sec) for a bit, then slows down(1 every 5 sec).
    I don't understand what that means though.

    Hey Solzuse, do you have a discord I can private message you over or something? Katsby6968 is my discord username. Feel free to add me and I would love to help you troubleshoot.

    thanks for the walk through and help katsby. wish it would have worked out. I will try and talk with intel about it.

    Intel 13/14th gen Raptor lake CPUs have a degradation issue...Supposedly fixed with a bios update, But perhaps your CPU was already to far gone...

    maybe get a 12100F or 12400k for testing purposes. basically by a cheap 12 gen LGA1700 socket CPU to see if the 13900kf is toast

    when the processor burnt up, would the damage spread to the motherboard as well? if I replace the processor, could the motherboard fry the new processor?

    Your motherboard is fine, basically the CPU internal components basically died. It's sending voltage into the CPU but it isn't doing anything. Your motherboard itself isn't receiving anything back from the CPU otherwise you wouldn't even see it post, your motherboard wouldn't control your fans it etc. It would be a dead brick. Power but no lights. Get a replacement for the LGA1700 socket. I recommend a 12th Gen I have the i9-12900K and it's been stable, just don't OC it for any reason even at normal clock speeds it runs like a champ.

    the PC doesn't post. when I turn it on, the fans start up, the lights on the GPU and CPU cooler turn on.
    never sends anything to the screen. the power button light flashes fast (2-3 a sec) for a bit, then slows down (1 every 5 sec).

    I looked into the 12900k, it says, it would bottle neck my GPU by 14-15%. reducing it functions, up to 45% in some cases. Pc builders say, you should bottle neck your GPU more then 10%. less than 5% would be best.

    Where can i get that bios update?
    I was able to play the whole weekend but i always had these 13th gen ue5 message. Never had problem before.

    13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-13900KF 3.00 GHz
    96GB RAM
    Windows 10 Pro

    I'm just offering suggestions, obviously you know the answer is to get another 13/14th gen but degradation is going to happen likely again. I'm running the 3090 Ti and I have very little to complain about. If your referring to this game, I have a buddy playing on a 4 year old laptop, the requirements do no necessarily require a massive rig working at 100% efficiency.

    Had to take my pc to a specialist. My computer is working.

    I have; downloaded the game, started it up, put all the graphic settings to low and 1920 1080, selected a server, made character, push to join game.

    game crashed at %14 this time, better than last time, I guess.

    no errors pop up, just shut the game down. I have tried this 3 times. ended in the same way.

    my pc is still working!

    The vid memory issue seem to occur for some PC setups, I dont have the problem myself but you're not alone.

    It might get resolved with more game client updates...this is an Alpha test after all.

    Like I said you could just get a cheap 12100f cpu for diagnostics to rule out of your 13th gen is toasted or not.

    Your PC might be working but it seems unstable.

    Go to your Motherboard manufacturer website, find the specific model and go to the support/download page.
    You might be able to flash the bios while the system is running or more than likely make a USB flash bios and follow the protocol to update the bios...if you or the PC specialist hasn't done it already. especially in the last 6 months.

    Week 3 of alpha 2.

    the games load to 14%, before game shuts down.
    this is the same as week 2.

    Your CPU is incompatible with itself and actively degrading day by day. This is a common issue with Intel 13th gen CPUs.

    Basically Intel can't compete with AMD anymore, so they pushed their CPUs so much they're all unstable energy drains with to much voltage applied to them running at frequencies that are too high.

    This is what's causing all the issues you're having.

    Likely at one point, but this was fixed a couple months ago and isn't an issue for new purchases or people who update their bios.
