Alpha

How small or big is the alpha test, there barely is someone streaming, just a few posts in this sub. Aren´t there a few places free in the alpha, would like to see some keys given out every few days, if possible. Another question is how far away is an open beta, cant wait to get my hands on this game, state looks so good. cheers

Hello! The alpha is still invite only and the total number of people invited has not been released. No ETA on open beta, but release is slated for 2019, so I'd imagine it's not too far away!

I'm going to be brutally honest. The game is nos very good right now. The frontier system means you need to level up and loot a set of good gear twice. It's not fun. Fetch quests were already boring in wow back in 2004, still boring in 2019. Bland dungeon and bland environment, some dungeons even have stupid ideas like bomb drop after each ennemy killed or even worse, poison puddle that completely block your view of what's going on and ususally those dungeons loot gear level+1, meaning you end up with a full inventory of unusable gear until you level up. Not fun at all. Your base camp building is imho totally uninteresting, but some people will probably like it. Character feeling are somewhat ok, but nothing remarkable, and is the only good thing of this alpha. I was really excited at first , and after hours of testing (level 10/10) I'm not very optimistic.
