Is it me, or are cd-keys completing annoying?
It's one thing when they print it on the Cd itself (not kidding! the new game I got called War and Peace, actually print the CD-Key...ON THE CD! Either crazy or ingenius!), but its another when they print it on the Cd-case, but that's fine, cuz you're not likely to toss the case.
It's an utter shame when they print the CD-key in the manual, and its sadder, when it's a crap-manual.
It becomes a tragedy, when you play a game for about two years, and toss the useless manual, forgetting that the Cd-key that is required, is on the stupid manual.
And, so when I installed one of my favorite games on my new system, Operation:Flashpoint, it asked me for a CD-KEY.
WAHHHHHHHT?!
I could not find the manual, and that's a shame, because I usually keep all my manuals that have some value, but for some reason, the manual for this game was among those that I tossed when tossing useless manuals.
So, now, I can't play Operation:Flashpoint, even though I own the ^%@$%^* game!
Lose the manual, lose your game.
Time to buy the game again.
YET, I was able to get the game up and running, but I am going to assume because it wasn't the correct way, that it will "degrade" overtime, as the developers so call say it will.
So far, I can't patch the game.
I downloaded a plethora, a huge library of stuff, and transferred it over to my new system, but, alas, I lost the CD-Key, because it was on the cheap manual.
I can still get some kind of OPF game going, but it's crap cuz I can't use all my stuff!!!!!!!!!!
The game, however, runs so fast on my new system, that it's utterly amazing.
I have ALL the detail at the HIGHEST possible level, and the game runs like Quake I on a PII.
YES, THAT FAST.
But no CD-Key----BAGH!!!!!
I will probably have to buy the game again.
After I buy the game, I plan on mailing the developers of the game (Bohemia Interactive Studio), my useless CD-useless only cuz I lost the manual; with an explanation on why they are getting my perfectly healthy Operation:Flashpoint CD in the mail, and without the manual too.
Search word: CD-KEY, and you'll find a plethora of lamer warez, cracker, junk sites, yet, after this stupied ituation with this game, I can't help but want to say to those lamer sites,"Keep up the good work."-even though they are all probably bogus, spam sites.
But I can't help but still give a kudos out to all the cd-crack sites, like Gamecopyworld and such, beause without them, I wouldn't be able to play some games I own, cuz of their stupid, broken copy write features.
