Since The First Descendant was only released on July 2, 2024, it is expected that the game will have some ups and downs – especially with the number of players clogging up the server. Free-to-play games are usually pretty popular, but the devs at The First Descendant probably didn’t expect over 200,000 people to log in and play just hours after its release.
What is Caliber in The First Descendant?
Caliber is the in-game currency of The First Descendant. You buy Caliber with your own real world money and then the amount of Caliber you bought appears in your game. Or, should, but that’s why you’re here, right?
If your Caliber purchase didn’t hit your in-game inbox right away, the first thing I can suggest is that you give it a few minutes. As I mentioned above, thousands of people are trying out this new loot shooter right now, and many of them are probably buying Caliber to avoid the basic skin of their initial Descendants. I know I want to; it’s weird to be surrounded by hundreds of players who all look the same.
Ways to fix your Caliber not showing up in The First Descendant
There are a few basic fixes you can try if your Caliber purchase didn’t show up after a few minutes. I would suggest trying these in order before starting submitting a support request to The First Descendant team:
- Refresh your mailbox. Leave the Albion Hub, travel back and go to one of the mailboxes that are set up around the hub.
- Restart your game. The First Descendant has some issues at the moment, including stuttering and lag, so try closing everything and reloading the game.
- Check your internet connection. This game is very dependent on your Wi-Fi; it’s a cooperative game where you can see players running all the time. You may have disconnected without realizing it.
- Wait a little longer. Ideally, up to an hour. Then again, the servers are probably a bit overloaded right now, and you’re not the only player who didn’t get their Caliber right away.
- Submit a support ticket. At this point, sending a support request to NEXON is a good idea.
- Get a refund through Steam. When you check out, Steam will remind you that they’re happy to refund purchases like this within 48 hours, as long as they haven’t been moved or modified in any way. I can’t vouch for this, of course, I don’t work for Steam, but it’s something I noticed when I looked into this problem.
I hope one of these tips works for you so you can get that dinosaur unisex you know you want.
