Just wanted to give everyone the heads up that the DQ Rewards system will soon be coming to an end. We are currently in the process of developing a new rewards system using the ARC platform.

If you currently have points in the DQ Rewards system we ask that you use your points before December. The page will be disabled after we launch our new Arcgames.com website.

The Player Rankings page will also be taken down once the transition takes place.

For more information about ARC and what's coming please visit:

    He said we should spend it before December, so I'm guessing that's the ETA.

    Well now we have knowledge about when to use our DQ points.

    The ZEN charging method change is a bit silly though. What if someone makes a large purchase and wanted to send it to several games? Before they could do that freely but this change is going to make them have to do multiple purchases instead.

    Funny, that shtty Player Rankings page never worked so why does anyone give a sht? Sadly the DQ being taken away from people who use it to farm money will chase some people away as well.

    Money pit... or PWI should make a new game called Money Pit, especially after the devastating sht that happened on Arch server.

    Once again it seems the advertizing part of a company has suggested negatively impacting changes to a perfectly good program in the mistaken belief that they know better than their clients as to what the client really wants.

    This is the same type of mistake that Microsoft made with the new start screen in Windows 8 and 8.1.
    I personally believe this was introduced as the Desktop is not very Microsoft Store friendly, whereas the start screen is built around it, and in future all updates will be delivered via the store.

    This led to a dramatically reduced uptake in the new OS after release, so bad it took 9 months for sales to beat its worse selling OS of all time Vista.
    Also 75% of people forced to drop XP due to Microsofts cutting of support have gone to win 7 rather than deal with the new Start screen.

    But they still insist they are right even when their own sales show so clearly they are wrong.

    Arc is just the same for a lot of us, its forced unnecessary advertizing of a companys other products, disguised as changes to provide a better service, instead of providing the personal needed to properly supervise their games, which probably costs more than providing us with this garbage.

    Why not wait to see what arc games has to offer and the offers we can get before you all complain more. No one is forcing you to DL arc ijs.

    No i don't currently have arc on this laptop. As long as my sage/demon cards and random dyes are there i'm good with downloading it

    You must have not read any posts relating to arc, it will be the only way to play and download their games. You will be using arc if you want to continue playing when its implemented. I will not be continuing when this change occures as I have already tried to get arc to work. I had a similar problem with a different game company where their installer/launcher would not run on my computer.

    Arc is just so damn buggy...It makes me wonder why they decided on sailing with such a buggy program. I mean, you don't sail a boat when the compass doesn't work, why would you put so much on a program that does so much, so poorly? Yeah, it can do a lot, that also means when that fails, the whole program fails. I have never experienced Malware linked to Arc, but then again I don't USE Arc a lot. I don't see "the end", but I do see the smoke and when you see smoke, it stands to reason there is a fire somewhere.

    If you read all you will realize its going to be compulsory for all, and as much as I personally dislike Game Managers as useless Bling software, I can understand that some of you may like its additional features,
    but that does not give you or anyone else the right to force people like me to have to use it to access your product.

    Not asking for much, just the simple democratic right to say no to parts of a product I do not want to use without removing all my rights to share in the use of this product.

    If it isn't too late could we get sporadic 'warnings' in red on the game that it is ending soon... there are some people who don't check the forums, and see these warnings... I can so see there being uproars after it being removed, even if you did mention it on a stick on the forums.

    Obviously I have seen it, but I do have a feeling lots of people haven't seen it and yes I do indeed thank you all for the stickied warnings.

    <-- already spent his dq points.

    Great way to go outta your way to still > Shove the faces of everyone who've made it clear too you (that they don't want to use ARC) back into the Dirt {PWE} I commend you...b:embarrass Not ~_~'


    You know, I'm glad I finally decided to put 1-comp here at my place (with the ARC Varient install // Where as I've kept my main gaming comp with the Pre-ARC version for actual playing of {PWi})...b:surrender

    I can atleast use the other-1 to keep dibs on all the stuff that you've been taking away from everyone who want the old version to play on only, while you're still trying to force arc on everyone>>>W2G {PWE}...


    ((You know, many people who still play your games, likely may not have access to a number of comps in-home to do what I finally decided to do with this never-ending forced ARC debacle (that you're so blindly set on imposing on everybody {PWE})... So why not try having a heart once in awhile for them, before you go and risk further alienation of all of those who've still tried to remain loyal to you who may not have access to more then 1-comp in-residence at their places???))b:surrender???

    Boy, your company has really just completely stopped listening to the players to allow you to operate as a corporation of any shape or form. Might as well close the doors to this "open" message board, because whatever we as players have to say is irrelevant to your company.

    PW-CN runs ARC? No? Lol. IJS.

    PW-CN doesn't run anything. Wanmei does, and Wanmei did not create ARC or make it mandatory to obtain item(s) in the future.

    Most people gave their feedback in the DQ feedback/suggestion thread and asked for this not to be put in ARC but deep inside I had a feeling from the start that this was their intention all along.
