Ashes Of Creation is, as of making this video just a few months away from releasing in its Alpha 2 state, in fact this may be the final progress update video I release before we’re able to play the game.
This means that by playing or watching content about Alpha 2 you should have a pretty decent idea of if Ashes of Creation is an MMO for you or not.
With that said in this video I’m here to do the usual livestream recap summarizing the past 3 months of Livestreams to keep the casual follows of the game up to date with the latest developments.
What do you think of the latest Ashes Of Creation development livestream showing off their server meshing tech? are you excited to play Alpha 2 in 2024? let me know in the comments below!

-Ashes Of Creation MMO Description-
Ashes Of Creation is a colossal MMORPG attempting to provide fans of PVP, PVE and Roleplay an everchanging world and the ultimate MMO experience, the game will have the following:
9 different playable races both with male and female options.
1200 square kilometer world size at launch, 85 Nodes in the world, EVERY Resource you see is gatherable just like in New World.
Fully open world game where you can go from one size of the map to the other no loading screens.
Dungeons, Raids, World Bosses, Open World PVP with a criminal system, Caravan PVP, castle sieges, node sieges, arenas, duels, guild wars, crafting and artisan system, monster coin events, political system, citizenship, player run shops, taverns with parlor games, top tier character customization, transmog cosmetic collection, 64 different class combinations, 3 different forms of player housing both open world and instanced, achievements, leaderboards, gathering, questing, hybrid combat system, player driven economy with localized storage, pets, massive guild system with guild halls, both land and water mounts and 18 different biomes in the world.
Ashes started development back in 2016 in Unreal Engine 4 however at the end of 2021 upgraded its engine to Unreal 5 to make use of the latest advancements in gaming tech such as nanite, lumen and a more efficient development pipeline, In terms of funding the game was successfully kickstarted in 2017 however the vast majority of the games funding comes from creative director Steven Sharif, a successful entrepreneur who like most of us has been a lifelong MMO fan that was unhappy with the current state of the MMORPG genre, Ashes Of Creation is fully funded to completion and despite offering paid access to Alpha and Beta tests is not reliant on these funds to finish development.
This game will have zero pay to win, a cosmetic only cash shop with no convenience items and a $15 per month subscription fee business model with no box cost.
A sand park MMO is basically a hybrid of theme park and sandbox, there’s a lot of player driven content however there’s also developer curated scripted encounters such as raids and dungeons…This is the category of MMO that Ashes Of Creation falls into and personally It’s my favorite type of MMORPG.

This is the last alpha and it's going to be persistent all the way up until launch and then it will become the test server post launch, it has been stated that Beta 1 & 2 will be considerably closer together when compared to alpha 1 & 2 , very short and close to launch, as the game will be essentially finished at that point, just in it's final polish stage. I can understand why they want to be vigilant with the testing, they want the perfect launch, which as we all know is very important, mess up the launch and it can be devestating.

There’s no way to see it all, and for whatever reason, a lot of people like upvoting the kind of BS react video fodder I mentioned before in his Reddit where he finds stuff to react to every day, so that’s the stuff he ends up picking to make content with. I think he either saw the original video (and the runtime) and decided to react to a 20 minute narc video instead, or he just straight up didn’t have the time or energy to care about looking up the real video after seeing the narc one pop up. Brain dead chatters and Redditors would rather see him react to why men are lonely for the 50th time, or hear him say the same shit everyone else does in response to another semi-famous person no one should really care about “maybe” being a pedo. It’s either that, or playing shitty P2W games like 85% of the time.

I enjoy taking a back seat and getting to watch others make big break throughs!
@hoofhearted4 10 күн бұрын
The thing people need to remember (and this is true for most games), is end game is called end game for a reason. it comes at the end of the game. People forget about the game itself. The leveling and exploring and everything that comes with it. Because so many people have played MMOs, we know the grind and we know the Raids, and everyone just wants to get to the Raids as quickly as possible ignoring the game. This is exacerbated by YT and Twitch streamers who game as a job. They need to get to the end as fast as possible for content, and all of that skews peoples perception of games. Dont look at a game by seeing if its "everything" you want, but does it have "something" you want. I look at this and just want some fun moment to moment gameplay, fun progression and fun skills. idc if this is the WoW killer, or brings back that feeling of 2008 MMOs or what the end game is. but i digress.

@r.daneel.90 7 күн бұрын
AOC want to use "dynamic gridding", mean, X/Y location can be split in different servers to allocate more players. SC's "dynamic server meshing" on the other hand is different, due to the scales involved. They aim to support large player counts by putting servers on "moving locations", like big space ships. Its a problem a lot more difficult to solve.

Just a heads up, Ashes of Creation will not be feature complete by the launch of Alpha 2. It will be feature complete towards the mid-end of it due to the alpha 2 running parallel with beta 1 and 2 that will come closer to release. Just wanted to put this out there so people don't expect the game to be feature complete the moment the alpha launches and then ends up being disappointed.

Even if that isnt possible, 2027 or 2028 is kinda dead end. (2027 will be 10 years since kickstart which is a normal time moment for an mmo like that to be ready and released)

To this date there still hasn't been another major succesful release that people have been happy about, and until that happens you're gone see alot more of that "cynicism" as you put it. which isn't cynical, to correct you, it's frustration.

Exciting times when MMORPGs are working towards Server population solutions! I'm a big fan of Guild Wars 2 WvW but back then the servers would slow down during massive 3 way fights. I am curious how well AoC server meshing works when pushed to Alpha 2 servers, hopefully it will be soon and not be delayed. Last year when Star Citizen announced and demo'ed their working "Server Meshing", it also worked but once it was being tested with players they had to make numerous of updates to unforeseen gameplay issues. It's to be expected though considering Server Meshing is in its infant state.

Just FYI, microservices are not a new thing that Intrepid made. They're just something Intrepid is using for a video game. Microservices is a general term for hosted services doing their one thing. Instead of being a monolith on a single server that handles everything, the monolith is split into its parts to make many microservices on their own servers. A company I work at is currently trying to do this with their monolith.

@@CasabianN-xr5sc "in almost every single MMO". Calm your tits, WoW boi. A fireball or firebolt all have variations across MMOs, from FFXIV to Elder Scrolls to ArcheAge to you name it. AoC has went with a model closer to ArcheAge's - which is a small, spammable firebolt - and it worked pretty great as mages had other spells. It feels like you've played one or two MMOs and decided that their version of "fireball" (an absolutely run-of-the-mill, generic spell name) was the only version that existed. It's just a name for a spell, mate. What matters is just how it feels when we play, not what name it has. It could be named "Fire Spell #33" and it still wouldn't matter.

Same. People think that because it takes ages to come out it's gonna be great. It promised A LOT and I can bet you it wont deliver even half the things they said it would. Looks pretty generic so far, they're just trying to implement ALL the cool systems out there, and because it takes a decade to finish this game people believe they will actually do it. Watch Alpha 2 getting released with 1/4 of the systems promised, and not even those working properly, and them having some kind of "sorry guys we're just a very small team! The MILLIONS of dollars you donated werent enough sadly, we promise this game will get better and better". I hope I'm proven wrong in the future, I really do. But there's nothing promising about this, nothing that makes you immersed into the world, I havent heard anything about immersion and story, a BIG factor in all succesful mmos (isnt FF14 the most popular mmo out there? And it's basically 80% story and 20% gameplay, but it does an amazing job at making you feel part of the world).
