so i was checking out the Arc quests and i noticed when the quest is play a game, all you have to do is click play and get to the patcher screen. you dont need to actually do the patch for it to count. Anyone else notice this, and is this a bug/glitch in the quest? if it isnt then great. Saves me a ton of time

    Could be but it could also be just a way to make you install the game. Maybe they will add something like: play x game for x number of hours and get points for that too.
    Also while is true that it save you time. I will not download 5, 7 or even 10 GB of data just to get some points :D
    I mean at least I will try some of those games. already installed war of inmortals and got like 40 points :D But I did play it a bit.
    One friend got lucky and he got points for updating his profile picture.... wish i get that one lol :D

    I can understand not wanting all those games you dont play taking up space, but for the F2P crowd it is an easy and quick way to get zen. so even though i wont play any of them. i have them installed just to earn the exp points. For someone like me living off of the disability **** pay, i try to take advantage of any possible way to earn a little extra money. plus even though it's slow gain, this means what little money i used to save up for pwi can be spent on other things. so unless they change it where you have to play something for so many hours, this is good for me and probably many others who want to have fun with cash shopping without spending RL money

    Etherblade Server
    due to mishaps in my past few years in game, I do NOT accept random invites (faction/squad/friend no randoms period) NOR will I give buffs (cleric/barb/sin/exp if i have it) to random people because they ask. If I DO give buffs to a random person, it's because of a random whim (much like the red detonator button sitting at my desk that i will one day push at a random whim)
    Also do NOT look at my gear and then proceed to pm me asking to buy my gear or for a loan of coin. It's just plain rude.
    I have too many toons to name, but if you play on Etherblade server and you come across a toon that acts this way, or if the world is suddenly destroyed, it was probably me.

    I'm tryin it, but a game said I'm not on supported region (that game is ditributed by another company in europe). Well, we can cancel one each day, but I had that game twice in a row. Too bad all players can't have same chance to get points.

    You know what I think i may be able to use a 1 TB partition I have on the machine I play (used to be for virtual machines stuff)
    So space will not be a problem anymore >:) Guess I will Download a lot of arc games... >:)
    Still I may play some of those o:)

    My problem is not so much about not wanting to play but not having too much free time. And Pwi takes most of my gaming time XD

    for the moment It doesnt ask much time. I only have to install, and opening the launcher count as one day of playing. I don't know if it will be like that in higher levels.

    Yeah we have a glich on this system, gogo exploit it ^.^"
    So after few days , we'll have a patch and yet the new quest is not just to play or click on play but play in a pw game for 3h or 2h and we have only poor 40 points u_u"
    Just an advice don't exploit somes glitch like a "dum bass" and play a little at somes games (like 10 min or more) , then they will not fix this glitch and we'll not have some fix who have to play a game for 2h or more...

    By the way, i hope you have see, each lvl give the same amount of points (if you read the FAQ) then you need to be lvl 10 to have 5€ >.>" But we have a little problem if the system of lvl is like in mmorpg , we need more exp to lvl up each time, so i hope that we don't need to do the quest for one year to win just 5€ ...

    So if somebody know how much exp is needed to be lvl 2? same amount or just a little more exp or a crazy more exp ?

    Whoaaaaa super necro, but I'll leave it alone for now so that it gains visibility o.o' Will leave it open for the day and then close it sometime tomorrow, unless something bigger blows up with this in the meantime.
