Thread: WTF Crysis 2 PC Pile of A**!!!! :@

Ok, basically.

For once. I go buy a legit PC game from local GAME store.

£20 - fair enough; not a bad deal for a new title. Good so far!

However, I get home. Install it fine; then a screen comes up saying ''activate your product''.

I enter serial code given, works fine > ''Activation successful'' - Sweet!


Then create EA account + sign in....
Logs in fine blah blah blah no problems here.
(Also asks to re-enter serial code, which i've done about 10 times)


THEN! When I go into multiplayer, I try and join a game/or quick match. After which a homo message comes up and says ''A valid serial code is required to play. etc'' :|



Not; ''Serial key already in use''. But the fact that it is not valid. :S


I am a perfectly capable human being and have not entered the code wrong. so why is this bs still coming up?

I've looked on the EA website hoping to find help, but these d****** will try their hardest not to help you; couldn't even find an email or telephone number.


EA - go **** yourself


any guidance/help will be appreciated, thanks guys.

use an uninstaller like Revo Uninstaller to delete all of the folders and all of the Registry Entries related to the software. Also use Cccleaner as double precaution to make sure all registry entries are wiped. Reinstall the game again, this time delete the folder "C:\Users\yourname\Saved Games". Load up and enter cd/serial key. Hopefully it works this time.

my guess is that it might has something to do with other EA games you have installed on your pc, but if you don't have any other games from ea then oh well. good luck anyway
