Glorious Alpha Two Testers!

Alpha Two Phase III testing has begun! During this phase, our realms will be open every day, and we'll only have downtime for updates and maintenance. We'll keep everyone up-to-date about downtimes in Discord.

If you have Alpha Two, you can download the game launcher here, and we encourage you to join us on our Official Discord Server for the most up to date testing news.

Take Your Time

I want AoC to be a great game that I can play for a very long time. If it takes another 2 years before launch that's fine with me. I don't want to play alpha and probably not beta; I can wait for launch. But if you stop saying you are fully funded I will preorder. Thank you

    Thinking it will take another 2 year when in truth it more like 4

    The dead do not squabble as this land’s rulers do. The dead have no desires, petty jealousies or ambitions. A world of the dead is a world at peace

    2 years is the bare minimum it will take anyway even if they did try and rush it probably.

    I would think with such dramatic and rapid improvements ongoing in the CGI realm at the moment that to allow the game to creep longer may end up resulting in delivering a game with polished mechanics but at the expense of dated / non-competitive visual quality to what is then current. Both battles need to be won.

    Then you have player/customer sentiment that is well carried when there is project momentum.. take too long and the sentiment waivers

    Agreed, there are a few MMOs that I heard are developing, or getting ready to develop using Unreal 5. While hardcore players might stay, there are always the ones that like shiny and new. Even Lineage 2 is supposed to remaster to Unreal 4 in the near future.

    All the more reason for AoC to use time consolidating its own identity as a new gaming experience, instead of rushing to compete with sequels.
    I wish I were deep and tragic
