  • Really liking the way this game is looking. I'm already telling friends about it. That said, I'm curious to know how detailed the character customization will be. Rather, will it be inclusive of a variety of skin tones and hair textures? There are mmorpgs that still do not provide hair styles like dreadlocks or braids, and other ethnic hair forms. In addition, some have failed to include darker skin tones entirely. My question then, is will you put effort into providing a variety of hair styles to accompany variety of hair textures? I.e; Dreads (hair straight down), Dreads (pony tail variant 1), Dreads (pony tail variant 2), Dreads (Variant 1), Dreads (Variant 2), etc.

    Really looking forward to seeing what this game becomes. Some really great ideas have been implemented.
  • cant wait
  • What are your plans regarding the localization?
    English of course but which other languages do you plan to add? And what time do you think you will need to implement them?
  • in their Q&A on youtube, they said that they will have regional servers, and that they plan on going where their player base is.
    however for more precise information regarding this probally best waiting for a dev response :).

    i hope this helps

    the q&a can be seen here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YGepb_OZLhQ

    there is also another thread asking if it will be in german : https://www.ashesofcreation.com/forums/topic/will-it-come-to-germany/#post-2358
  • I'm really hyped for this game so i have one last question after reading all the Q&A's, when will the game be playable?

    alpha is planned for the end of 2017-early 2018
  • I can't wait to play this game. You guys are doing a good job, i also got a question.

    Would you guys implement a "Achievement" panel into the game, that will show different achievements that X player have made. Example : First Boss Dragon Kill or Defender (Defends 5 Caravan attacks). And also show some status on the overall things that the player does in the game like : Number of quests completed, Number of deaths , Number of Castles Defended/Attacked , Number of Caravans Defended or attacked.
  • on the same note i would like to know if this game will be plagued with perfomance issues like TERA - unreal3 based mmo.
    from what i read from the q&a i like the way this game have the potential to become.
    my only concern at this point from me is will it be SUPER OPTIMEZED? or will it try to be another good looking mmo with or without substance, but cursed with the lack or posibility of beeing only another average or below average performance hog.
    i appologize if i sound maniacall, but like another poster said it, i learned my lesson... no more hoping onto another hype train.
    ty in advance i hope u can reply in a fashionably timely manner .

    Un saludo!!!
  • Well, I read this. I'm suppose to participate in the community so, here's a comment.
  • I love the idea of this game and have been following it for a bit now although I haven't seen one of my biggest questions answered. Sorry if I missed it somewhere but I was wondering...

    -Will this game have some kind of possibility for creative input by the players? e.g. (the ability to custom build structures like houses or other buildings, or design weapons and gear / clothing.

    -Or anything like Player Studio that Daybreak Games uses for a few of it's titles like EQ, EQ2, Planetside 2, and Landmark. Allowing players to custom design 3d models in a 3rd party program and submit them to be added into the game for use by other players etc...

    I know it doesn't seem to be a building game at all like Minecraft or Landmark etc... But I just wondered will players get a chance at real creative input and if so to what extent?

  • Will you launch early access on Steam aswell ?
  • I'm currently playing BDO too and wondering how much different ashes will be to it.

    Will this game have an action combat system or is it target and num key smashing?
    And are the races gender locked like in many Asian MMOs?

    the game will be a tab-target action hybrid combat system, and i believe positioning plays a important part as well
  • Will we see things in the world that we can find that will add further depth to our character? For instance: becoming a vampire/ werewolf? I'm not saying that those things should be added, but i'd like to know if similar things can be found and acquired in the world?
  • Looking forward to your teams hard work paying off in a big way for the players.
  • немного жаль что игра не будет бесплатной

    <strong>Q: Can I actually make money by referring people to play the game?</strong>
    <em>A: Yes. We want to be able to give back to our community, especially leaders in our community who bring other players to our game. We feel the larger we get, the more fun everyone will have. So we have designed a referral program that allows our players to receive actual cashback. By using our referral system, players can share links to the game on social media, forums, or simply with their friends. If a person visits our game from your referral link, they will be identified by our system as your referral, and when they register an account with us, you will receive 15% of anything they spend (subscription, credits, crowd sourcing) as either; in-game credits, payment towards your own subscription, or choose to receive actual cash. As far as we know, this is the first system of it’s kind for a video game, and we feel pretty good about it. </em>

    This looks an awful lot like a ponzi scheme. Without a "REAL Product/Service", I doubt you'd pass muster.
  • Looking forward to this game. Mostly for the PvP aspect.
    Please no p2w.
  • All of this sounds amazing- I just wanted to ask if you guys will have full immersion in mind when it comes to gameplay and realism when it comes to all physics/weapons? I've also been wondering if it will be possible to play AOC as a solo player at all. Thanks for your time!
  • Monthly subscription lets me hope they'r not going for p2w.
  • oh boy.
