Arc Redirect

Looks like Blessings and DQ points are down for the count, was this premature or something? If it's not then springing the Arc site on us and forcing a redirect on pages like the blessings without offering an alternative way to obtain them is a bit... I don't think I really need to explain.

I haven't had the chance to fully explore as I'm in FSP at the moment, is there a way to obtain the blessings through Arc? If not then. You know. Yeah.

    Knowing how it works, expect to see blessing/DQ site back in 1-2 months.

    I have to agree, forcing us to visit another site is just BS.
    We cant get a blessing or use our DQ points anymore.

    I've been aware of the DQ rewards being removed since November. That isn't the point.

    Kitty tried to look around the arcgames-site and couldn't find any ways to get FB-blessing. If it's ARC-only, then this game ish done for Kitty. This time there's nothing to bring Kitty back.

    The fact that I can see the dq page with my points behind the redirect thing taunting me is really ticking me off... f:fume

    I love how they gave us a warning ahead of time so we'd be ready for the new website! OH WAIT.... they DIDN'T.

    Another brilliant move by the people up the ladder ladies and gents. -sarcastic slow clap-

    unlike PWI's Facebook page .. forcing us to go to another site is BS .. how do we get to the DQ page or get our blessings?

    Is PWI really gonna take the chance of loosing players over a webpage? really?

    Blessings do seem like the only reason people would willingly like PWI on facebook.

    The blessing thing is a bummer.

    We were warned about DQ page but not facebook at all.

    Makes me even more glad that I have blessings stacked up.

    I usually don't get too bothered with the ups and downs of PWI enhancements, but this Arc re-direct, coming as it did with no warning and apparently little thought for the loss of website functionality, is most disappointing. Tsk, tsk, PWI.

    You know, I despise people that go "OMG I'll never charge again!11", but you know what. That's it. PW isn't gonna see another cent from me after this bull****.

    Not only are they forcing us to use arc, which we never wanted, they keep breaking their promises over and over. I think my money is better off with that other MMO. At least they care about their customers.

    Other note, facebook connect still works. I was able to get to the blessing page and it updated my facebook page but I cant redeem a blessing because of the obnoxious thing that pops up forcing me to arcgames.com.

    I agree... :$ i focused a bit too much on the dq portion of your post, I just think that it was only a matter of time before they removed the page completely.

    Obviously though it still sucks that it was removed before they had something else in place, hopefully there will be something new to replace both pages sooner rather than later.

    (I never stacked on the blessings, but I also don't really care that I didn't... while they are obviously useful, I have made do (on numerous occasions) playing/doing just fine without a blessing. The same goes for my barb for the most part I can hold aggro fairly well assuming the dds are smart enough to not go hog wild on the boss before I have it under control. *Cough* toad boss stunning, someone attacking stealing aggro even though i used stomp of king/flesh ream/alpha male. *cough* )

    It's pretty lame of them if this was intentional, I prefer the 30 attack levels to not having them. I feel like people are jumping on the hate wagon a little early, but their anger is justified.

    Well this is quite frustrating.

    I'd wish they would give us a heads up regarding changes like this. b:sad


    But based on Sparkie at the moment, the re-directs went live today, but the players didn't receive notification that there will be one. He's currently looking into it now.

    What a surprise!!! PWI that doesn't communicate with the players. I'm shock. b:shocked

    It's PWI, I'm not even frustrated about it, can't get blessing without ARC? Well let's try ARC, ARC suck? Well let's just leave the game.

    As far as im aware, you can't get a blessing WITH arc.

    Blessings can no longer be obtained by some people, but others dont get the redirect and therefore they can and are currently stacking up as much as possible.

    http://pwi.perfectworld.com/ <- still works fine for me but I have to enter the address manually (or bookmark it).

    Stills sucks though....there are a lot of people that don't want this yet they keep ignoring the facts, the polls, the threads, the complaints.


    I actually downloaded ARC on my laptop albeit I don't use it. I only use it to redeem codes etc. but as long as I don't need it to start up the clients I'm fine with it. It's not too bad I guess but they really need to do something about the site...
