We've just given everyone 5 Invite Codes for the new Returning Players section on the recruiting page.

When inviting a player back, the following must apply to be able to invite them:

1) Reached at least level 20.
2) Not logged in for at least 120 days.

Friends you invite back must do the following for you (and them) to qualify for a reward:

1) Enter your invite code on this page.
2) Login on 20 unique days.
3) Gain 50 levels.

When the returning player applies your invite code, they will instantly received 30,000 Current Stamina and an epic Phoenix Potion which gives Adept Learner 500 for 48 hours!

When the player you have invited back has qualified for the reward, it will be reviewed by the Fallen Sword Team and if approved, you will receive $40 worth of Fallen Sword Points (250) and the returning player will receive $20 worth of Fallen Sword Points (110). You'll also increase your progress towards the awesome new Phoenix Medal.

For full details, check out the new Returning Players recruiting page now by clicking here...

Out of interest, will it be possible to get more of these invite codes at some point?

Nice, if we send/generate an invite code, will that player receive an email to make them aware of this or is it a case of luck that the player logs back on at somepoint?

You need to give them the invite code and they need to enter it on the Returning Players section of the recruiting page.

Ok, I see..

Would it be possible to send out emails to the players we generate codes for... I'm sure not everyone keeps in touch with old, retired players.. If emails are sent when a code is generated you will have a higher chance of getting more returning players

Just a thought

Shame I planned to use it to send an invite to a member of my guild that retired before I joined

so i generate the code for the player's name first...then they log on and enter the code(that i personally have to give them) at the bottom of THIS page?

generating the code before they log on calculates/records that they have been away for 120+ days?? new technology confuses and scares me :shock: just don't want to make a mistake and ruin basically my only chance for these rewards since i only had one real life friend join this game and leave.

Most of players retired banned themselves or logging on from time to time not 120 days inactive
and they left game for a reason. if we brought them back and they saw nothing changed they will back inactive :|

Not necessary to add medal for this stuff as it unachievable for many

Gain 50 levels or..? Clear 50 bounties? win 25 arenas? Get 6000 titan kills? Kill 50 SEs?

Not everyone who might come back would appreciate the leveling aspect of the game. If its supposed to be something give them the itch back and encourage them to play, then maybe they should be rewarded for doing activities that they would enjoy.

Its great that you try to do something to get old players to return. :)

The only player i know the contact information is my nephew, and the reasons he quit playing are way worse now. He doesn't have any intention of logging in again. (just talked to him)

The most this "update" is going to do is fire up the old multies and shared accounts. Gotta get them free fsps.

Some players quit because of these changes ;) specially pvp part changed alot than what it was in the past..
and Look at pvp arena top rated list most of top champions retired because of it being slow...

they didnt quit because they cant get fsps or powerful potions. you disagree? :roll:

Titan hunting isnt the whole game tho and its not fully fixed yet :|

and i know game improving now...but who knows when it will get improved well enough

Only issue I have with it is all that gold coming back into game with the 30,000 stam ( plus their own max stamina). Possibly make the 2 day potion al500 and sacrifice 500?

I was thinking this also, with the current ways of HCS is getting rid of gold this is somewhat counter productive.
500 however seems a wee bit too high, I was thinking Lv. 300
Whatever the level, I think it needs one.

I think this is an excellent point.... And I feel this should be implemented some how

yeah even a sac 250? As long as there's some sort of sacrifice included to nerf the gold coming into the game. :)

There are many things we could ask the returning player to do I guess, but we wanted to keep it quite simple and easy to explain.
