You’ll get some bonus ARP when we go live based on your overall total. Its not a lot of redeemable ARP, but its some to start with. The top 1000 guys will have a healthy amount to play with at first. They did earn it after all.
Cool they’re introducing bot catering 2.0! Now we can continue to have broken daily/weekly activities that don’t reward ARP and bots can grab all the “limited quantity” games and sell them on scam sites like G2A.
I’ll be interested to see how much of a bonus we top 1000 get for arp. I’m currently 27044 arp / rank 146 on the leaderboard as of this morning. It’s 50 arp base for everyone but i’m not expecting much back as a bonus.
So I’m Level 20 with about 2150 ARP as of last night. Can I still level up…what happens now, we get currency or something no more arp? I got the Mr T fool badge thingy i guess i get keep that I’m thinking. Also I never claimed my tier 20 rewards like the free socks or hat, or dell bucks hope I still can after this.
One of the admins from AWA (cartire) posted this on reddit:
“Thought I would pop in here and leave a quick comment (yes, Cartire from AWA). Giveaways and all other promotions arent going anywhere. The marketplace is just the rewards page from before, but getting more stuff, including more valuable and newer games you can spend ARP on. But those are completely separate from normal giveaways which will continue as is.
And yes, some giveaways will still be locked behind higher tiers.”
Yes, from my understanding, you will still level up as you did before. The only difference is that the ARP that you earned to reach those levels will be converted into a digital currency unique to AWA that can be used to purchase rewards. You lifetime ARP will determine your level. However, you will not have 2150 ARP to spend. It will be adjusted to what they’re calling “a more appropriate level.”
From my understanding, yes and no. The rewards will still be available after the update, but instead of them being a free selection, you will need to spend ARP to acquire them.
On a side note, although more options will become available as rewards like steam keys. The steam keys will likely never be available unless you’re super lucky. The keys will be available in limited quantities. The site is already running rampant with bots that snatch up every key on the very rare occasions they offer a free steam key. Having multiple steam game options and “more valuable and newer games” I only see the people running the bots doubling down on their efforts to make sure they can grab them all.
I just want to say the new avatar system is lame as fuck. Who ever thought a cool replacement for custom avatars is doll dress-up is a dumb shit. Come on Bruh!
