What is the Arc Client?
Install Arc

Here's what I'm interested in seeing:

Gateway. Will NW on XB1 have it? Same functionality, including sword coast adventures and auction house access? How will it separate my PC toons from my XB1 toons? Having two accounts here is going to be cumbersome.

Auction House. Won't be able to really test it during closed beta since nobody will have much AD. and will it work on the Gateway?

AD / Zen Exchange. Will it be in any of the betas? How will one get Zen, or whatever the currency will be called? Once I have MS Cash in my XB1 account, will I need a separate account on PC to go in and convert it to Zen? Will NW be able to go into my account to see that I have MS Cash and convert it according to my wish?

Foundry. I love(d) the foundry. Creation of adventures using XB1 controller and tools looks like it's be A LOT harder than on PC. Also, at the outset, will it be bare? Any base adventures from PC able to be ported over?

Party system / voice chat. Hopeful that its integrated with XBL party / chat seamlessly. Auto XBL voice chat when joining a group in game?

Zen store. Without any details on how to buy Zen, the store won't get tested. Would be nice to have a founder's pack for CB that refunds the items for OB.

A complete lack of gold sellers (hopefully!!). XBL accounts aren't free.. they are easily bannable... so the economy on XB1 should be completely different than the PC economy. I don't know if this will result in a high exchange rate near the 500 AD - Zen max on PC or a low exchange rate. Anyone with an economics degree feel like guessing as to the value of AD per Zen?

Lastly, I'm interested in seeing SOME BETA INVITES COME OUT! :cool: A timeline for CB, OB and general release (although OB = general release nowadays). The game has been out in China for a while, so I'd think it'd be a generally short time frame, but there's been no info at all. I keep checking the Coming Soon menu on XBL, because to have a CB, it'll have to be downloadable. Once it's put up there for the world to see, Thursday (hopefully!), interest is going to really explode for the game and for info.

    The gateway in it's full should connect with the xbox and the best way i say it can switch is you click on the xbox symbol and it will show those toons as you call them.

    As for the foundry I see that as super hard if not impossible and if it was it would be (for lack of a better term) a super dumb version.

    I thought we were told that Xbox wasn't getting gateway, because it got away from them on pc?

    Look at the date on the OP. Major necro. Arise Villithrax!

    And yes, no plans for a gateway for Xbox.
