Thread: No cd key

    No cd key

    Im going to re-post, people need to hear about this before they waste their money on a game they can't play. It is dishonest of you to tell us we need to contact steam to get a cd-key for YOUR game. They dont issue cd-keys for a game YOUR company produced. It is YOUR companies fault for not keeping up with demand. It is YOUR companies fault for not putting a disclaimer saying you cant play this game until we have more cd-keys. Dont blame Valve, a GREAT company with a GREAT reputation because of your shotty business ethics. Don't sqaush a thread and hide it under a rug because it may not be good for business. Give a time frame on when the problem can be fixed, or refund and actually follow through with it.

    I purchased this game off steam, and OA has no cd key that came along with it. If I get this right, you are selling a game without a working cd-key. How is this not illegal. To not even put a disclaimer saying you have run out of cd-keys is dishonest and wrong. Who do I even contact to get a refund for the game I cant even play? Is bohemia aware of this issue? I see no posts about it on this fourm, are you taking them down? Becasue on the steam forums I see TONS of people having the same issue who bought this game recently. I would like a response from an admin ASAP, this is terrible business ethics. We should all get refunds from YOUR company since YOUR the one who cant produce the cd-keys. Its funny how before just your game wasnt selling well so you had enough keys, but since a popular mod comes along you cant keep up with demand. I know its not steams fault, i have bought alot of games from them without a hitch. This is really sad and needs to be fixed asap before we goto the better business bureau, popular gaming web sites, or even the news to show people how you run your business. If it gets fixed today, it would be no problem really, but i have read that it took 14 days to fix last time this happened?!?! Just give me my refund please, which I know will not happen. You dont even have a phone number for me to call, which is another terible business move.

    Maybe this will explain why we need to contact BI, and not valve for cd-keys. This is taken from valves web site.

    If the game is a recent release, or was purchased during a sale
    While we do our best to anticipate demand from our users, occasionally we may run out of keys to provide for your purchase. When we are out of keys, this error will appear. You will be issued a key as soon as we have been given more by the game's publisher.

    You will be issued a key as soon as we have been given more by the game's publisher.

    You will be issued a key as soon as we have been given more by the game's publisher.

    Is this enough information for you moderator? Dont be rude, and do your research before you post. I dont see how you are a moderator in the first place, it shows how this company is run I guess.

    If we close a thread here then this means end of discussion. No matter what you think about it.

    Above message you posted 3 times now, in 3 different threads. It's enough now. I suggest you read the forum rules again you just accepted a few minutes ago:


    §9) Do not cross-post

    Do not post duplicate threads in more than one forum simply to get an answer quicker or to draw more attention to your post.
    You will be issued a key as soon as we have been given more by the game's publisher.
    So, Steam runs out of keys and they still sell the game? If I build cars and run out of engines, do I still sell the cars then and tell the buyers that I give them the engine later?

    Again, you bought the game from Steam and only they are the place to ask for a refund, not BIS!
    And if it's really the case that they are out of keys then they surely asked BIS already for new ones. There is no need for you to come here and post the same rant message and false accusations 3 times.
