The Core Connect Achievement system and Core Token Shop will be closing in 30 days from today. If you currently have Achievement Points remaining, we highly encourage you to use them before the system is taken down.

Why are the Achievement system and Core Token Shop closing?

We're going to be implementing a whole new, revamped Achievement system and Token Shop under our new platform, Arc!

What will happen to my Achievements and Tokens?

Unfortunately, those won't be carried over to our new system, and when these two systems are closed, those items will be lost! Be sure to spend any tokens you have within the next 30 days!

But we'll have all new Achievements to earn and items to purchase under the new Arc platform! Stay tuned, as we'll be adding these new features and more to Arc soon!

    Ohai new GM
    We appreciate the update, but since you are new here, I wouold like to inform you about why the majority of us are not happy with Arc's set up.
    Please look at our poll/petition, and have a nice day.

    Welp, time to find some random things to spend my tokens on, since the items never actually appealed to me before. But since they're going to poof soon, might as well use 'em right?
    Thanks for the heads up fluffy panda synch! :D

    Way to go PWI ignore all the negative posts about ARC and lose even more customers I for one will not be using ARC and if i cannot access game without it I will be gone. (e.g. Simply Leave lol)
    We do not need more unnecessary background processes running on our machines, why not put the effort into improving the game play instead of giving us something we clearly do not want.

    Hi, welcome to our forums! Thanks for not listening to the player base x9000 times!

    The statement should sound more like...

    We hope most of you players leave soon, because you can't deal with our buggy bloatware that must come bundled with our titles! Once you all leave our game, we can shut down the servers and begin working on more profitable titles! Make sure to spend all your token points, because in order to get access to the new items, we must force our bloatware down you and your machine's throats!

    Have a nice day players of PWI, that we refuse to listen too since late 2009.

    This is actually, not at all true, we'll see how long but.. I know for a fact they listen. Val did something quite amazing in his time, and because of that, the high-ups are also listening now as well. Once it's revealed (the cryptic subject I am speaking about) I will reveal what it was

    Val did listen to the players, I agree. Him and Spoons did genuinely care. However, do you know how many staff that have come to PWI forums spitting lies and cover-ups of big issues over the years? Frankie aside, we had Xarfox and a few others over the years too.

    In the end, if they had actually listened to the players originally, things would be vastly different. Remember packs being introduced? Spoons was a CM then, and he couldn't stop their implementation by PWE's sales department (even with a 150+ page thread asking for them to be removed).

    I could name off so many times in the last 5 years that the players have been ignored, that I could write a small book. And what has changed over the years? Not a damn thing. As the player base dwindles (not many new players are coming in anymore), they still refuse to listen to the community.

    So, basically will no longer be considered as customer if we are not using arc? b:shocked

    Can you at least make an achievement page that is outside arc?

    As if PWI is telling us "You're not using ARC, you're achievement does not count" b:cry

    Arc is an atrocious piece of software. PWI already consumes massively more resources than it should if it were actually coded properly. I don't need additional software sucking up resources on top of that.

    Everything in this game is broken and the staff don't give 2 cents.. either they call you a lier and you have to deal with it in 1 or another or if they can't talk back at you ignore you and hope you will back off. That's my case. I don't know why I even bother to gather info on glitches for them when they don't give a flying rat *** about the player?

    Not a surprising thing that the site is not working now when you need it most.. I got used to it.. and NO I will forever NOT take side with PW staff ever again. They deserve my hate after they last stuntb :angry.


    PS you can open the game with elemental like in the past and bypass ARC or after opening PW you can END TASK the 3x Arch program in the background b:victory

    Instead of revamping this sites why not just simply try to fix it ? and let them be how they're also first fix the Support Page which doesn't lets you select your character & server while submitting a ticket that's more important. Fix the DQ reward page which always has been lagging to update the points fix the Ranking Page. STOP forcing us to ARC & if u guys want us to use ARC & only ARC make it worth of using it. Fix the bugs in ARC there's some many issue with ARC just go check the technical support zone about ARC you guys won't be proud of your own product. STOP IT.

    Well, the achievement rewards are naff; and core connect is stupid broken AND naff.

    So not much of a loss.



    And I can understand why you don't want to run duplicate systems.

    But seriously; stop it. We don't want your steam-clone. Stick with just running a game and a website; please.


    Buahahahaa.
    I went to look at the core connect thingy; to confirm it's as bad as I remember.
    "Sorry vitenks, An error occured during your transaction. Parser Error"

    Yup; still utterly broken.

    b:bye__Seriously, Core Connect has always been Fried 8 ways to Sunday and its rewards were PaThEtIc!

    But to force a Program as flawed as Arc still is (which makes the pittance probs of Core look like Microscopically Finite & miniscule things in comparison) down the throats of everyone left here who stayed on and has played PWi to this very day, is the height of Arrogant Dismissive Presumptions!?b:thanks

    The absolute majority of everyone who's ever had anything to say about Arc, is always negative (and for good reasons) its a program which is as annoying as it can come, so please be sure to tell the league of braintrust burnouts who've came up with the idea of ignoring everyone of the players again (who hate and absolutely feel disdain for that program) that we said HI for us! Afterall they don't seem to either give a s***about or bother to even try to hear anything at all from us nowadays anyways (as they only seem to have ears for those who they seem to see in the mirror) as they further Isolate & chase off the last vestiges of the masses who still tried to loyally hang on to this game despite the crappy track record PWe constantly shows us....b:surrender

    "Want a word of advice, when ya get rid of and drop Core Connect also be sure to fire all the 1s who chose to do this to all the rest of us (who put our hard earned money into this game so you can have an actual way to pay yourselves wages with the income resources we put into your games) cause they need to be removed from the business planning sessions, before they find a way to finally chase away the last of us who bothered to stay on, with this deliberate feigning of ignorance of the player populaces aswell as the current attitudes & discontent on these things pertaining to the Arc system"
