Zerolimitz · 16 Jul 2015 at 19:00

Here is a Refer a friend code for anyone who wants it just let me know if you used it so i can cross it out : ~~GDMTQK55~~ - 222XM9FM - ~~H9NAWP4R~~ - ~~44TYRYKH~~ - X4SUVQPF - ~~RSWBBVHC~~ - AEAGKH5B - ~~DUAQFGR6~~ - EDXS8976

These codes apply ONLY if you haven't added any game time to your account.

steps: Go to MogStation --> Manage Service Options --> Enter Recruitment Code

no need to flaff about with emails just copy and paste

if this gets enough attention i will add more codes.

Edit: This works for new and old players coming back.

Just picked up this game 2 days ago and im completely hooked!

Does anyone know if this game is cpu intensive at all? G3258 with a fairly decent gpu could handle it? Thinking of playing it in the front room

I have a second PC running an AMD X550 Black Edition (3.3GHz) paired with a Radeon 5850 and it barely manages it. However, I suspect the thing is flagging from being core unlocked and overclocked. The pentium should do much better until you hit a busy FATE or city square.

Will probably get it installed tomorrow.

I used - GDMTQK55

Thanks.

I signed up and installed it but haven't played the game yet. I thought my free game time would start when I start the game/enter card details. I'm down to 21 days of free game time! Whoops.

Your Welcome mate hope you enjoy the game.

btw when you get your feathers trade them in at the Calamity Salvager there should be one in each main city.

Installing tonight so will let you know which code i use

ShortWarning · 28 Jul 2015 at 10:58

I finally got round to playing this for the first time tonight. I'm enjoying it. It feels like a proper Final Fantasy game in mmorpg form.

The only thing I'm struggling with is the map. I have to kill some small lamb and for the life of me I can't find them. I click on "find on map" and it opens what looks like some sort of world map with no indication as to where I am on it (or where the lamb are). I spent 45 minutes running around looking for these lambs and still didn't find them!

it should show up a red circle which shows the area they are in and if it opens the world map just click on the quest icon and it should zoom into the zone map and you will only see yourself in the zone map not the world map if that makes any sense? i suck at explaining things

What you're saying makes sense but I'm sure I pressed every button in the game and still couldn't figure it out.

I'll have another go tonight.

I'm on PS4 and tbh it's a bit of a pain navigating the GUI with a pad at the moment, I've shifted the map up slightly and don't know how to move it back. Haha.

Thank you very much for collating those. I've just watched the map one and it makes a lot more sense. Hopefully it will help me with questing.

I'll check out the others when I get home.

What's the ps4 population like?

I'm not sure, all the European servers bar 2 are closed for new players though as they are full.

its crossplatfrom so PS4 and PC play together and the population on most servers seems to be pretty healthy. personally i know a lot of PS4 players as well as PC, it seems to be a good mix of both.

Zerolimitz · 28 Jul 2015 at 20:22

Also a good tip if you can't create a char on one of the servers you want wait till 1-3am when the populations are low and create one.

Do the recruit a friend codes work on trial accounts? Or will they only work when you upgrade to the full game. I ask because I can't see where to enter the code, but I'm currently only using the trial.
