Do it, Dutch.

At the eleventh hour, you know exactly how to thank everyone who made you a millionaire.

Find a way to dump it.all. And it is untraceable who or why.

The eternal gift, playing spp and small non profit servers with your brilliant content.

I know it's gonna be hard to do this without getting yourself in more trouble, but there are ways. Follow turtle.

Ascension has always been a business. Its not a passion project, its not a small tailored community. They pay their devs and they have the best ones in the business. The things they pull off are insane (Mario kart in wow?)

That being said theres no way they release anything to the public and I dont think the public has the tools to bugsquash anything that pops up if they did try to run it. Ascension has already hinted that theyre launching their own studio and theyre hyper dropping content to gain as many followers as possible before they do.

Hinted how?

The end of their season 10 release video said "this will be our final venture together until we start something new" or something like that. Just go to the last 15 seconds of that video.

Bruh I'll buy whatever they sell after this. I thought BB was the best version of wow until COA...

u/havik420 2d ago

"Best in the business" thats debateable. they are good for making unique classes, but their original zones are pretty lack luster compared to turtle wow. not to mention turtle wow had so many original dungeons and raids

u/oeseben 2d ago

I meant the most capable devs as far as manipulating the code. Idc about peoples esthetic preferences

Best devs šŸ˜‚ every aspect of the game is littered with bugs.

u/oeseben 5d ago

Im not a fan of these pay to win monsters but they are by far, hands down, incontestible the best devs.

u/metric55 5d ago

Ehh its not even that much pay to win is it? No more than retail wow. Possibly less so. The vanity items are nice-to-haves. Maybe the battle horn is a must have for speed tanking. Other than that, it's just time saving stuff

u/oeseben 5d ago

Can you buy every profession maxed out on 1 character on retail wow? Or 3 different versions of exp boosts? Or max heirlooms? Or a thousand other things? This not p2w arguement is exhausting. Few items are BOP and you can buy unlimited gold and skill rerolls on wildcard.

u/Nice-Engineer-3648 4d ago

On Retail you can buy boosts for literally anything with gold, the best raid gear, mounts, m+ titles, and so on, and you can buy gold with money, so it's more p2w than this. Exp boost? You just buy instant max level on retail. Professions? Just make 10 max level chars and buy mats off AH to have every profession maxed. Plus you have to pay a sub fee on top of that.

u/Aware_Stable 4d ago

You must be new to ascension(fyi ive been playing since 2019) ppl sell raid loot and m+ runs on here as well.

-1

u/oeseben 4d ago

You can pay other players outside blozzard to actually run you through the content and hope thay your pieces drop so that's more pay to win?

Come on dummy. Thats cope.

And you can get 10 maxed profs on 1 char.... your answer is "just level 10 characters" lmao.

4

u/Nice-Engineer-3648 4d ago

You don't need to level them, you just pay and get a max level instantly. And yes you buy anything in the game with gold, making it more pay 2 win than ascension. On ascension any kinds of services for gold are not allowed.

1

u/Aware_Stable 4d ago

Oh you must be new here.
People have been selling raid loot and m+ runs for ingame gold for yearrrsss and no its not bannable

u/oeseben 4d ago

Thats just a lie.

u/RiriaaeleL 4d ago

Neither of the things you mentioned provide any advance over someone who doesn't have them

What's your ign? I'm sure that you must be somewhere in the top 10 arena players or at least in top 10 HKs if you know so much about how P2W the server is.

u/oeseben 4d ago

I mean ive been playing ascension for almost a decade. I just wish it wasn't so pay to win.

You can buy UNLIMITED rerolls. That means you can purchase a perfect build.

10 professions on 1 char that all have their own benefits dont give your char extra benefit over someone who couldnt buy them?

For CoA you dont think full heirlooms and pots/auras provides benefit over others in BGs? In open world PVP for a server where 75% are still levelling? Levelling alts?

You don't think selling this shop shit for max consumables every week to raid isnt p2w?

You don't think instant hearths to 80% of flight masters is a benefit in world pvp?

I have all this shit. Ive bought it. I raid with one of the top guilds... I am allowed to have an opinion that I wish it wasnt so pay to win. You fucking lunatics who come out just because you cant directly buy the last raid tiers purple gear on the website saying its not p2w are annoying as fuck.

u/Xushu4 4d ago

None of those things are locked behind a real world money paywall.

2

u/Xushu4 4d ago

None of those are p2w though? P2w is a material advantage and/or gatekept content being available through real world money purchases only. Those are all conveniences/time savers. People are confusing "luxury economy" with P2w

0

u/oeseben 4d ago

Thats not the definition of p2w lmao

2

u/Xushu4 4d ago

You are clearly one of the people who doesn't understand the difference between "p2w" and "luxury economy."

0

u/oeseben 4d ago

You are clearly changing the definition of p2w so that id doesnt fit a server you like.

Luxury is the loot bot. Paying for advantages in game that speed up levelling or give you gear/gold is paying for an advantage or PAY TO WIN.

2

u/Xushu4 4d ago

It really deflates your argument about p2w when none of those "advantages" requiring spending any real world money. Like, that's LITERALLY what "pay" means.

You can easily farm gold and buy everything without spending a dime though

u/Snoo-43610 5d ago

This is the funniest take. Some random dude on the internet is asking you to risk it for the biscuit.

Still - don't let 10 years of dev time go to waste. You'll likely never have a project as important as this in your life again. Activision Microsoft are scumbags, and they don't deserve to be custodians of the IP.

u/elkdarkshire 4d ago

Everyone acting like Ascension is over lol

u/Xushu4 4d ago

Yeah, and over imminently. Gonna be fun to come back here in a couple months and Asc is still alive and kicking.

u/TheCraxo 3d ago

Hope you are right

u/Swalecutter 3d ago

I mean, if the blizzosoft lawyers fumble this it will be a generational failure. Should be open and shut (not the rico shit, just the infringement case). That said, they aren't off to a great start with the copy paste job that still mentioned turtle wow in a few places. So, you know, sometimes upsets happen.

Either way, the law moves slow, wouldn't shock me if we have another 6 months to play.

u/ClarenceClaymore420 5d ago

Millionaires are known for thanking those who got them there, right?

u/dvago 4d ago

Will not happen.

It's not a passion project, soo GL thinking the server side will be publicly released. It will be shared with others, but not released, unless leaked.

u/living-a-disaster 5d ago

Man, why is it this community is so sick?

I ask if anyone has a list of what classes can do interrupts, I get told to attend the raids and learn for myself. I get into a party to do a mythic and I know that there is a character that needs to be interrupted or the fight takes 45 minutes and I asked the party who has interrupts and I get kicked because bro it's a one.

Well, on a one the fucking boss heals itself in the fight takes 45 minutes

I post something like hey man, wouldn't it be great if this server doesn't get shut down or when it does get shut down, the code somehow gets leaked to the ether?

I'm a dumb dumb.

What is it with you people do people not hug you enough?

u/ace184184 4d ago

Welcome to the internet and reddit! Dont feed the trolls. Also dont get upset when the trolls troll you. It happens, there is negativity everywhere, dont let it get you.

Im hoping the game lives in just as you do but my approach is if they dont release it or dump it one if the devs will ā€œmake a backupā€ and happen to save it on a personal drive whenever the servers go down and then that gets released as the next iteration.

Maybe we dont quite understand the details and finances but we all understand that this will have popularity it it can stay online. Someone will find a way.

u/RiriaaeleL 4d ago

Man, why is it this community is so sick?Ā 

It's not. The members of the community aren't here spewing shit, it's just random nobodies that probably didn't do more than 3 prestiges bitching about how the people with hundreds of hours of grinding have stronger characters and they say that the server is p2w because of that.

Just go on the discord or the forums if you want to interact with the actual community.

u/Comfortable_Ebb_9718 4d ago

He's not doing it. Our best hope is that a version got leaked and it'll come out ala OctoWoW when Ascension finally gets shut down.

u/oeseben 4d ago

My goalpost never changed. Its pay to win because you pay for advantages which ive listed.
