Why CO sites front page,
http://co.perfectworld.com/, has a pop up window which forces to ARC Games page?
Oh, i see. It got streamlined like the rest of the Cryptic game sites.
Nice work. Thumbs up.
No. Really, this is beyond any ****tard.

There's the direct link to it, I have no idea how to reach it through the ARC site, though. :c
Thank you.
Hey PW, this new website still sucks and looks like something from the early 00s and I still don't care about your other games. I will never care about any of your other crappy asian grinders.

They only told us this merge would happen when Arc first appeared. It's not like this change was unexpected. They also told us the forums and main page would be changing to. As far as "eyesores" each their own.

They did announce on the forums here, and while they are messing with the pages (which I agree didn't need a drastic overhaul) you still don't need arc installed at all to play Champs.... yet...

Well, every gaming company has been unifying their systems. It's not an isolated practice. Hell, even Blizzard now uses a unified patching system for their small library of games. And originally, the Champions patcher was unified between both Champions and STO, and I think can even still be configured to launch all Cryptic games.

^ This.
Arc is nice enough. But it should be optional. Not forced.

Then again given how many basic features these forums have I guess I shouldn't be surprised that even their website wouldn't be any better.
This is a big f'n deal.
Seriously, we need access to the page to copy characters to PTS at the very least.
Good Job PW. No really....good job.
Oh and one nice think to say about the website. I love its open space so I can see all the news at once without having to scroll as much.
Oh and the new forms page is nice too. Just......you need to change its color its a eyesore.
Now if you'll excuse me my Qularr Sidekick needs...some love.
Right?
Right.
It would be silly of them to remove parts that have been functioning correctly...
Since the ARC update threads did mention something like 'Only the look will change, but functions remain'. Can't search the News section of it, since the News seems to be repeating 'Victorian Costume Set' and 'Grab Your Free ARC Gifts!' part of it multiple times...
And we, still, can't custom our forum avatars, without the the link....from STO.
(And 'cryneting', you still have too large forum signature....)

My super cool CC build and how to use it.
When I fire up Internet Exploder, yes, I do get auto-redirected.
And when you can't get to pages like:

An official post like the 2 other sites got, atleast NW did, for the site/forum change and stuff.
So we could ask without going on to Tinhat Mode....
But since i can't post in NW forums....without using IE....
But all will be well, sooner or later. It allways will.
Trust the ARC. ARC is The thing now.
I decided change my looks to same as majority of people look like. It truly is an upgrade.

Could you give details about your issues? At what stage do you get blocked from charging ZEN?
While this isn't available right now, it's in the queue, everyone understands how important it is to get back online. It's already a good ways into the process, and I'm working with the Arc team to make it gets back up soon (for all Cryptic games).
1. Install an adblocker for your browser
2. block this code file: global_redirect.js
This allows you to visit the old game pages directly without being forcibly booted to arc. you can still access the arc website by clicking on the link at the top of the forum page

Thanks to you two for helping me navigate through all this crap. I was a returning CO player who just resubbed today - and then had no idea all this Arc crap was even happening. Kept getting redirected all over the damn place. I finally got in to my old CO account thanks to you two!
I was going to actually reactivate my gold today and get back into the game, I kinda miss it. But since they just forced this Arc nonsense on me and I can't get to my subscriptions page without some round about bs, I think I'm going to say 'nah'; and play something else.
I feel like companies just don't pay enough attention to the people that give them money these days. Especially when they look away core game features and provide them only for fees. Grinding Gear Games has a pretty good take on F2P.
Maybe I'll come back when they get their crap together.
But i guess, the one would be wrong.

That's not the Cryptic/PW way. You are mistaking them for a company that prefers doing quality work over doing a rush job to get a quick buck.
...for the great use of a Ron Swanson gif. :biggrin:
For what it's worth, it's at http://co-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=264101.
Or maybe it's just that they threw it together with some of the key elements missing.
Who knows.
I like it. Very much.
Now if they could do the same with all 3 Cryptic games. You know same features and stuff...

My Account-> Games(who would have guessed??:eek::rolleyes:)-> if you can't figure it out from there then I really don't understand how you figured out how to use the internet in the first place.
Like I said people, pretty much all of the complaints can be solved by simply taking 5 minutes and checking what stuff does.
Then you sir, are better than I... I've been trying to trudge through this new site to find the full list of vet rewards for nearly an hour now, and yea... it took me all of 5 minutes to find a link, if that.... problem is, every-single-link I can find redirects me back to the fraggin' arc homepage!
If you'd be so kind to provide me a working link where I can actually view the list of vet rewards, I'd be appreciative.
Then again, with all this hassle for such a simple stupid thing that should be readily available with ease, I should probably take it as a sign to not purchase LTS... as if there weren't enough signs already. I must be a complete moron.
Ahh ok well thanks for that. but qeastion is how am I going to change it now with this new crappy website?
