Alpha-2 is known as the persistent alpha.[1][2] Persistent means that the Alpha-2 servers will be kept up all day and night until launch.[3][1]

  • There will be downtime for patches.[3][4]
  • Alpha-2 servers will become the public test servers (PTS) post-launch that are used to test patches and updates.[7][5][1]
Alpha-2 will remain even post launch as our public test server.[7] – Steven Sharif
The ultimate goal for A2 is to be persistent and the PTS, but before we get that far there's gonna be some wipes I would expect.[5] – Steven Sharif

Alpha-2, очевидно, намеревается стать очень большой частью игровой механики: очень-очень большой ее процент.[9] – Steven Sharif

Введение в создания персонажа Alpha-2(первый проход).[10]

Ожидается, что большая часть игровых систем Ashes of Creationбудет задействована в Alpha-2.[9]

  • Мир
    • Карта Alpha-2 будет иметь размер примерно 220 км2.[11]
      Альфа-2, вероятно, займет около половины мирового пространства, доступного в рамках тестирования. Я бы сказал, что игроки могут исследовать чуть более 220 квадратных километров мира, что является довольно обширной частью игры.[11] – Steven Sharif
    • Система климата.[9]

Тестировщики Alpha-1 и Alpha-2 могут быть приглашены для участия в выборочном тестировании перед выпуском Alpha-2.[31]

Alpha-2 известна как постоянная альфа.[1][2]

Pre-order-packs with Alpha-2 access are ending

September 2023 - January 2024 (The Unseen Order) were the final pre-order packs for Ashes of Creation as the developers have reached their desired number of testers for Alpha-2.[33]

Why are the pre-order packs ending?
Our pre-order packs were intended to be a way for players to support the project by providing an opportunity to collect exclusive cosmetic appearances that are used in creating the world of Verra, while respecting our commitment to zero-tolerance pay-to-win whatsoever. As we draw closer to our Alpha Two and Beta testing periods, we want to ensure a glorious experience for our players who have signed up to help make Ashes of Creation the MMORPG it deserves to be. To that end, we have decided to discontinue the packs until such time as our internal and/or external testing supports the admission of additional testers. We will continue to update our community when more ways become available to access Alpha Two or Beta testing through our communication channels.[34]
When will the final pre-order packs end?
The final Pre-Order Packs will end on January 17, 2024 at 11:00 a.m. Pacific in order to ensure everyone has enough time and notice with regards to the final Pre-Order Packs’ availability.[34]
Does this include the Beta-1 and Beta-2 pre-order packages as well?
Yes. While we anticipate we will reopen the ability to purchase Beta packages in the future, these options will not adopt the same format of regularly recurring monthly exclusive cosmetics as our existing Pre-Order Packages currently offer.[34]
If I do not get a pre-order pack, does that mean I will not be able to join Alpha-2, Beta-1, or Beta-2 in the future?
Not necessarily. We will continue to engage with our community and content creators to offer various giveaways that players will have an opportunity to participate in. After our internal and/or external testing satisfies the admission of additional testers, we may provide alternate methods of purchasing access into testing periods.[34]
When the pre-order packs end, will there be other items on the Ashes of Creation shop?
We may provide cosmetic items and merchandise in the shop at a future date.[34]
I purchased a previous pre-order pack, but I like The Unseen Order cosmetics better. Can I switch out my cosmetics for these?
Previously purchased cosmetics may not be exchanged, though we do provide a 90-day return policy. If you own an existing Pre-Order Pack, you may also purchase individual cosmetics offered in the current pack a-la-cart.[34]
Can I upgrade my pre-order pack after sales for the pre-order packs end?
Yes. You will continue to have the option to upgrade your Pre-Order Pack to a higher-tier package after sales of Pre-Order Packs end. If you upgrade, it will not give you the cosmetic items of the same type (Accessory, Pet, Mount, etc.) that came with the previous pack you purchased. Only the additional cosmetic items from the upgrade to The Unseen Order Pre-Order Pack will be granted.[34]
Can I purchase add-on cosmetics from The Unseen Order after pre-order packs are removed from the shop?
Yes. You will continue to have the option to purchase add-on cosmetics from The Unseen Order, based on what your Pre-Order Package level gives you access to.[34]
How long will I be able to upgrade my pre-order pack or purchase The Unseen Order add-on cosmetics?
We don’t have a date to share for this yet, but we’ll give everyone plenty of notice before ending the ability for them to upgrade their Pre-Order Packs or purchase add-on cosmetics from The Unseen Order.[34]
What about upgrading Kickstarter packages? When do those end?
You will still be able to upgrade Kickstarter and Summer Backer Packages. We’ll give plenty of notice before ending the ability for people to upgrade their packs.[34]

Вайпы серверов

Альфа и бета-сервера будут полностью очищены перед релизом.[6]

  • Этапы тестирования Alpha-1 будут включать в себя полные вайпы.[35]
  • Сервера также могут быть очищены перед отдельными тестами, если только разработчикам не потребуется сохранить прогресс для определённых точечных тестов.[36]

В целом, если в названии тестового этапа имеется слово "альфа", то можно смело говорить, что во время него будет очистка.[5] – Steven Sharif
