feedthegoat Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 I think so, but you will use up 2 of your 5 installs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
walsh Posted November 13, 2008 Author Share Posted November 13, 2008 hope so, I was wondering because I've heard/read we don't have to use the disc after activation, so whats to stop us installing it on 5 different friends PC's and only paying for 1 game? (or is that only the case if we use steam and therefore only 1 person can be logged on at one time) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
encore69 Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 you will use up 2 installs and have the advantage of not having to have the disc wih you. if you wanted you could play on pc and lap top at same time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mahr Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 The installs are tied to the Steam service right? So by that you're saying that it registers Installs and Uninstalls of FM09. What if my HD collapsed, as they so often do - and I want to ReInstall the game I lost, does that take one of my 5 installs? Or do you mean that Steam does only support 5 Installs of the same Reg ID/Key through Steam at one given time? Like for example 5 machines of mine, being connected to steam through the same Steam account, all playing FM09. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn Wakeford Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Yes you will be able to, as long as they are being played by you. It will take up 2 of your 5 installs, but you will get these back if you uninstall. Also, please search before asking as this has been covered in several threads. Cheers.
