Playfire Rewards Thread

I believe so, yes, but I can't confirm it. I don't think you'll be getting rewards for every achievement you've ever gotten, but any that fit in the time zone of when the reward was available I think you might get :)

...but again, I can't confirm this on any official capacity :/

No they don't.

If you played a game before it came up for rewards you don't get said rewards. Ie: when they say get x or play for the 1st time you have to do it after that came up not before.
 
I didn't have a chance to have a proper look last night. Quick question: Must you get the achievements during the allotted times or do all achievements count?

You must get them during that time. If you already have them you are out of luck.

Ah alright, then I'm going to rather skip it. The one advantage of having a big library or games is that when I choose the next game to play I can pick the exact type of game I want to play. With this Playfire Rewards I can definitely see the advantage but I'll have to play what's currently in the schedule. I'll also have to concentrate on achievements, something which I currently mostly ignore.

So yeah I think I'll skip it for now.
 
Updated for FEZ, having been in Humble Bundle for $1. Here's a chance to make some cash if you bought it but its still in your backlog :)
 
Updated with Chuck's Challenge...but I get the vibe that this isn't really helping anyone, so I think will be the last update.

Oh well
 
If anyone still reads this...does anybody know if Arkham Origins ( NOT blackgate) has been on playfire rewards? my google search skills brings up nothing :P
 
I think lots of people still read this. I'm sure if you keep the thread up then eventually you'll get more people to join you in Playfire Rewards conversation. Keep it up until the next MyGaming compo and see if more people join you.

As for Origins, I have no idea. :)

Spot on as always Eugene! Sending this from phone but will rep you when at pc :) what's direct link for these updates? I was struggling to find them earlier

@mottamort : if you could maintain this thread with the regular PLAYFIRE updates, that would be awesome!
 
Ah ok...see, I need these kinds of comments if I'm to maintain it properly :)

Will add links to rewards (I'm spoiled and use the client, but will post rewards links on main page)

Looks like you can score up to 5 Euro back in rewards this weekend for playing Dark Souls 2. :D

Yeah but with it costing around $40 not exactly worth putting up :P

Also, playfire (for me at least) seems broken again. Has been 2+ days with no new tracking and currently still waiting for a support ticket to even be allocated to an agent :/
 
There's an easy £0.10 for playing Conquest of Champions for the first time. It's a FTP game, about a 66mb download.

Mottamort, if you want this thread to get some attention, might I suggest actually maintaining it. For instance, something like this:

Frequently Asked Questions

What are Playfire Rewards?
Playfire Rewards is a new and exciting way to play your way to cheaper games. Every day we set you brand new gaming challenges to beat that can earn you Green Man Gaming Credit to spend on the store.

How do I participate in the Playfire Rewards BETA?
It's easy; if you don't have a Playfire account, just sign in with your Green Man Gaming account or register. Then just link your Steam account and you're ready to start earning rewards.

How does my Reward balance work?
As soon as we've tracked any rewards you've earned it will appear in your transaction balance on the Rewards page. Once the credit you have earned has been deposited in your Green Man Gaming account and is available to spend, a tick will appear next to the reward.

Will I get rewards if I had already earned the achievement before each reward announcement?
No. The reward system is NOT retroactive. You must earn the achievements within the allotted time.

How long does it take to process my reward?
Every time we update your game activity we also check for qualifying criteria at the same time. Generally speaking this happens every 1-3 hours, however, credit has been recently showing up after many hours or days. This may be fixed in the future.

How long does it take to deposit my credit to Green Man Gaming?
During the BETA your credit will be deposited into your account every 12-24 hours. However, the system has been fairly sporadic with credit showing up days after earning them. You may try re-logging from GMG if your credit is not showing up.

Can I participate in the Playfire Rewards BETA if I live outside the United Kingdom?
Yes, absolutely! During the BETA your rewards will be displayed in GBP (£) but these will converted to your local currency, based on a daily exchange rate, when they're deposited into your Green Man Gaming account.

If your gaming activity has tracked correctly then please contact Customer Support providing the following information:

Playfire Username & Email:
GMG Username: & Email:
Steam Custom URL:
What rewards you are missing:
Screenshot of your Rewards page from this link: https://www.playfire.com/a/rewards

Will Playfire track my achievements earned on games played via Steam Family Sharing?
Not at the moment, this isn't to say that we aren't going to add it to the service going forwards but there are lots of logistical issues that need to be addressed.

What are you doing to combat people who exploit Playfire Rewards?
People who exploit Playfire Rewards will be immediately banned from Playfire, their Steam ID blacklisted, reported to Valve and it may also impact your ability to earn credit or gain discounts permanently on your Green Man Gaming account. We encourage all users to report any suspicious activity directly to Customer Support. In short, don't use SAM!
