OUCH!
[or maybe not so much?]
October 08, 2010 finds me, tammany tzu, holding her widdle swolen head in dismay.
For, what seemed to have been--going to be--a heartbreaking venture into the unknown has become clear!
Yaaa!
ABOUT ADDING CRYSTA USING UGC
[Ultimate Game Card]
tammany tzu here...taking a break from killing uglies to tell you about how to easily add Crystas--Which in American means:
How to PAY for your gametime in FFXIV using the UGC cards from Wallmart.
[not that I, tammany tzu, go to Wallmart--Because Ul'dah don't have one yet...but your towne probably does have one...and you can buy the 20 dollar card at Walmart from the catty girl behind the register...or the 10 at 7-22 etc and take a billion years loading them]
Here's what my friend from another land--America-told me how he did it.
(1) Have your friend go to Wallmart. (saves having to quit crafting to go yourself!)
(2) Give them some 20's (USD -ollars)
(3) Have them buy as many cards as you gave 20's...
(4) (Give friend(s) a couple bucks for gas.
(5) Close down FF if you are playing.
(6) re-log to FFXIV, but don't push the *PLAY* button
(7) Go into *ACCOUNT MANAGEMENT* (it's the grey botton I think...at the bottom)
[From here, it can either be VERY-VERY confusing--or VERY-VERY simple.]
(8) For simplicity sakes! Choose simple...ok?
(9) Simple, you say? Great...let's do this thing!!!
(10) LOOK at the left of the screen.
(11) SEE the words ADD CRYSTA
(12) Use that tag...(press the buttion over those words)
(13) A new screen appears ("payment and service fees)
(14) PICK the AMOUNT (if u have a 20 USD -ollar) card pick: "2,000 Crysta 20 USD"
(15) PUSH THE NEXT BUTTON (at the bottom- on mine its orange-ish)
(16) A new screen APPEARS (Payments and Service Fees)
(17) Here you have 2 options.
..............................[A] Credit card button: For those who wish their credit card infor to be spread across the digital game hacking universe, and greater Nigeria and China, or:
..............................[B] Ultimate PAY
If you choose [B] then you get a new screen
Paypal (ok but has issues)
ULTIMATE GAME CARD: <--Pick this one (a "tab"), as that's what we are discussing. Otherwise don't.
A New Screen Appears: It SAYS "Ultimate Game Card" and has a box for PIN.
Prepare your game card--that means turn over the card and scratch the silver strip at the bottom gently to reveal the PIN NUMBER...
**(I think the FIRST TIME through--somewhere in this process it asks for your e-mail then the pin...use the e-mail address you used to acquire FFXV...after the friost time it just asks for the PIN from the card (the UGC)**
Type the Ultimate Game Card PIN NUMBER in the box on the screen that says: PIN
PRESS THE PURPLE (on mine anyway) BUTTON THAT SAYS "ADD CARD"
A New Screen APPEARS:
It Says: "You're ready to pay" or close to that anyway....
Press the PURPLE BUTTON (or what/ever--pay the damn thing anyway...
I confirms you have paid...
If you have more cards repeat the process...except that it wont cue you for e-mail on the next ones, just the PIN from the card.
You can get the cards at Wallmart, 7-11 and Gamestop. Each 20 USD -ollar Card is 2,000 crystas.
I have my account set on auto monthly pay...if yours is different you may have to adjust after entering all this--but maybe not.
Good luck--and it actually goes really fast when you do it. It's just long to explain.
I'll turn this back to tammany tzu now...
Yaaa! Wasn't that fun! See why my widdle head would ache?
That's why we have humans!
hee-hee
tammany tzu
(ps...to check that all the Crysta are there goto Crysta Passbook--It's right under the ADD CRYSTA button)
