1. How many days per week is each stage of the alpha? Ive looked on the website and a little in the forums and haven’t been able to find any answers beyond that it’s initially only weekends but how long until it’s expanded
2. Will buying alpha access give access when the game is fully released or will it be an additional cost to buy the game at launch
3. Do you have to pay the monthly cost while the game is in testing or is that only on release

    Also funnily enough I have discovered a bug in the forum where if I visit this post multiple times the number of views goes up, nothing crazy just kinda weird

    1. Phase one its just in weekends, depends your local time. Phase two start on 20dec with 5 days uptime monday to friday .Phase 3 start on 1may 2025 with 24/7 uptime and I think will be for a long time.
    2. For sure you will have access to full game on release with your pre-order pack.
    3. Nah, I think sub thing will start when the game its full released. At the moment I play without any costs or something.

    Correct, Goldenboy, the sub doesn’t start until game launch.

    1. Phase 1: weekend test | Phase 2: 5 days per week | Phase 3: servers are planned to open 24/7, excluding downtimes for maintenance.
    2. Downloading the release version of AoC is free - the only costs after launch will be a $15 monthly sub.
    3. You won't have to pay any monthly fees during the testing phases.

    Hope that helps! Closing this thread.
