  • Linux viable?

    Hi, thanks for your questions.


    CoA Launcher and the game client are officially Windows-focused, but we do allow running them through Wine, Lutris, or Proton. At the moment, we do not know any active players using Linux, so we cannot provide a confirmed list of working distributions or a tested setup. If you choose Linux, please treat it as an unsupported/experimental configuration: compatibility may vary, and launcher/game updates can break a previously working setup. We strongly recommend keeping a backup of your game folder and a Windows fallback (for example dual boot) in case troubleshooting is needed.


    If you'll find a way please share it with us ;)

  • Ich brauche hilfe....

    Hey! Bitte sende uns einen Integrity Report - damit können wir sehen, was genau bei dir schiefläuft.

    Danke! Sobald wir den Report haben, können wir das schnell eingrenzen.

  • "Impossible to reach search version checker"

    Thank you for sharing your solution - this may help other players who encounter the same issue.

    We've forwarded this to our launcher developer to add an option allowing you to configure it to run as administrator permanently from within the launcher settings. Currently it's only possibly by using a shortcut or right clicking. We'll also update the error message to suggest running as administrator when this "Impossible to reach search version checker" error occurs, so future players can resolve this more quickly.

  • Gold VIP changes

    Here's our perspective on the Gold VIP discussion, the economic reasons behind the changes, and what remains unchanged.


    1. What Gold VIP / Permanent Plus actually was

    • You bought features and access (extra DQs, convenience etc.), which you are still receiving - not a lifetime guarantee that specific reward values would never change.
    • Our legals explicitly state that game content, rewards and mechanics can be adjusted when needed for balance and service quality.
    • You have already used these benefits for years. Asking for full money refunds now, after extensive use, would effectively mean getting those advantages for free and would be unfair to other players.

    2. Why the DQ / Prestige change is needed

    • The change targets a small percentage of players doing 80-250 DQs/day, way more than you can do with Prestige, which was flooding the economy with gold and PT and widening the gap between old and new players.
    • Normal play is basically unchanged; the reward structure stays, only extreme farming gets diminishing returns. You can still use the full number of DQs, just with reduced extra gains at the very high end.
    • This is not about increasing our income. It's about stabilizing gold and diamond prices and keeping progression reasonable for new and returning players, instead of letting a tiny group push the whole economy.
    • A "good mood" on the server also depends on a playable economy. If prices are out of control, new players quit long before they reach endgame.

    3. On "fraud", "half product" and refunds

    • Calling this "fraud" or "taking half of what you paid for" is simply wrong. You still receive the core Gold VIP / Permanent Plus features and a clear advantage over non-VIP players.
    • We reserve the right to adjust in-game systems and virtual currencies, and virtual credits have no cash value and are not generally refundable in real money.
    • The offered PNC refund already goes beyond what we are strictly required to do.

    4. Additional option - Restoring the original VIP

    • For players who bought Permanent VIP before Prestige existed and insist on the original deal, we can offer a rollback to the full original Permanent VIP package on a case-by-case basis.
    • Concretely, that means:
      • Original VIP rules for Daily Quests: 1 DQ reset ticket/day/character, handled exactly as it worked back then.
      • All original VIP rewards (vault, bonuses, etc.) restored in their former form.
      • No integrated Prestige and no current "80 daily charges" system tied to Permanent Plus.
    • This option is strictly to mirror what was sold at that time. It is less convenient and, in practice, weaker than the current Prestige-based model, but if someone prefers the original package over today's benefits, we are prepared to honor it in that form.


    Gold VIP / Permanent Plus still gives a significant, long-term advantage over regular accounts.

    We never promised immunity from balance changes, and we will always adjust systems when necessary to protect the game economy and the wider community - even if some players dislike those changes.

    The current rules and refund option stand; no further changes to Gold VIP / Permanent Plus are planned.

  • Item Shop prices & QuestHelper

    Thanks for laying this out so clearly and for speaking up as a new player. A few clarifications from our side: we haven't adjusted diamond or most item pricing for roughly a decade, while cumulative EU inflation over that period was huge, so some recent changes are simple normalization. We've focused these adjustments mostly on cosmetic and quality-of-life items. The item you mention (Magical Perfume) is optional: it speeds up farming and auto-loot convenience, but it doesn't block progression. Our broader goal is to narrow the gap between newcomers and veterans; without some economic tweaks that's not achievable. In parallel, we're preparing starter packages for new players and considering changes to how many diamonds/PNC you get in selected places to make early progression feel smoother. We're also exploring a cheaper, toned-down version of Perfume (slower/smaller effect) so players can pick between full comfort and a budget QoL option. And to keep things accessible, we'll run regular promotions and rotating discounts on these items (including Perfume) so players can pick them up at better value.


    On QuestHelper: it's a community addon, not core client functionality. We reached out to two addon authors with all the details we have and haven't heard back yet. We also spent time investigating on our side (the bug is stubborn) and we can't keep the addon enabled for veterans because it makes the Millim zone effectively unplayable, and there isn't a simple way to disable it only there. We understand the frustration and will try a small round of minimal, safe fixes; at the same time, anyone from the community is welcome to contribute updates, and we'll support and help test them.


    We know many new players are grinding instances for income. We're reviewing early-game earnings and will add/tune alternatives so there's more than one viable path without paywalls. Bottom line: the intent isn't to make things harder, but to tidy up the economy after years without indexation while keeping changes centered on optional/QoL items -alongside concrete steps (starter packs, promos, possible diamond/PNC tweaks) to make starting out faster and fairer. If you have ideas for the starter pack, promo timing, or what a "lite" Perfume should look like, we'd love to hear them.

  • Longest relationship in ranking

    Unfortunately, the duration/establishment dates were never saved to the database, so it's impossible to obtain this information for all existing relationships. Enabling this feature only for new relationships would be unfair to players who established theirs earlier.

  • Проблема с установкой клиента

    Здравствуйте!


    Мы уведомили разработчика лаунчера о данной проблеме, и он может попытаться её улучшить. Похоже, что один из наших источников клиента заблокирован в вашей стране.


    Пока мы работаем над решением, не могли бы вы попробовать использовать VPN-программу (например, Windscribe) и проверить, работает ли установка с её помощью?

  • Arcadia Coin Exchange - Feedback

    Hi Necrol1212, thanks for the feedback - both points are valid concerns and exactly what we're monitoring.


    1) On diamond scarcity and prices:

    - We agree the inflow will slow down, but the reduction primarily affects veteran players. We track diamond generation/spend alongside Play Time and Gear Score, so we can see which segment is impacted.

    - If diamonds become scarcer, two counterforces typically appear: sellers adjust prices down because there aren't enough diamonds to clear listings, and some players shift to gold- or item/s-for-item/s trades. We'll watch the diamond-to-gold ratio and Auction House clear rates closely. If we see persistent price-stickiness or widening gaps, we'll refine rates or add alternative faucets to stabilize liquidity.


    2) On mid-game content desirability:

    - We'll review participation in Tikal/Kalin/IDK and other AM/AC sources and compare it pre and post-change. The intent is not to devalue mid-game, but to rebalance an outsized conversion path that mainly benefited endgame.

    - If we observe drop-offs, we're prepared to add targeted incentives (e.g., improved mid-game rewards, titles) to keep those instances active and rewarding.
