I was just curious and also wanted break the monotony of the usual generic "Hi everybody, I'm posting relays cuz i want the achievements" slop with something a little more engaging, cheers all and have a GG!
Good God! The music in that Aniimo trailer had just the right amounts of cheese and cringe to make me want to vomit out my own ear drums. Whoever got the assignment to make it sound like someone prompted AI to create the most annoying, nausea inducing disney-esk jingle imaginable to drain a person of the will to live aced the brief! "Please make it stop, take back the ARP and just make it stooooop!" xD
BATTLEPASS QUERY: Hey all, hope the day finds you well. I've been out of the loop for a bit and away from the discord: So, have there been any updates or mentions regarding the Next Battlepass? I've been missing my small dopamine hits as i progressed through that thing. MAN, whoever came up with that to increase site engagement deserves a raise! Harvest my data Alienware just give me clear progress and goodies along the way of your winding path to new loot for me to unlock. OOH LOOK, MORE SHINY THINGS!!
Did anyone find out the answer to the question of whether or not the Store discount % artifacts also work for the battle pass tokens? It should seeing as it is literally part of the marketplace. If not they need to change the wording of the artifacts to read "the cost of ARP items in the Marketplace is reduced by 15%" I want 15% of my 135 tokens back Alienware, that extra 20 tokens could have got me a game instead of 100 ARP after getting the Artifact. RIP 10 spare tokens! At least do a 50 ARP for 10 tokens
ACHIEVEMENT PROPOSAL:
Ok, based on my own suggestions and what I've seen from others commenting on achievements regarding incentives to actually complete them here is my proposal to the Arena team: Lowest tier achievements give small amounts of ARP that incrementally scales the higher the tier of achievement. Fragments for the highest tier (most difficult to attain ones). "Special/Exclusive" Rewards for actual member level advancement. DRP, tokens, etc. To be honest 99.9% of the people here would want that!
I can confirm that some of the broken achievements have also unlocked for me today as others have posted. Unfortunately a bunch of the others i already did (some years ago) are still broken. Oh well, hopefully they will continue to attempt to fix the rest while they're at it. Come to think of it why do i even care?! They are functionally useless..small arp rewards that scale with the achievement ranks would be a nice touch or fragments too. Maybe a profile showcase option like on Steam. Ah, whatever =D
Serious question to the good folks at Alienware and the community at large regarding the Game Vault. Would it really be that hard to implement a system where Steam account linking is mandatory for the game vault and instead of receiving a key when you successfully claim a game in the vault it would generate a link directly to Steam which then auto-activates that key on your linked Steam account. This would at least for the most part eliminate all the bots/alts grabbing keys to resell or trade..Thoughts?
Game Vault Nonsense!!
Man! That is total BS!
I rode the refresh button on the game vault page for 3 minutes before the vault opened, I literally hit refresh as it rolled over from closed to open and instantly all the Gothic 1 Remake's were out of stock. Worst part is that i can guarantee 90% of those keys will be on the grey market within minutes. SMH!
