Invalid Product Code???

I'm trying to install FM09 and I'm now just p****d off at it.

It doesn't help that I can't play the game now till tomorrow without it saying invalid product code.

Why oh why do the rubbish typing make the 1's, I's look the same like the 0's and O's.

No matter what combination I try it won't work.

I can install it now and input this keycode can't I and the game will unlock at midnight or is my anger misplaced as I shouldn't install it because of the midnight unlocking? :confused:

Yeah apparently it's pretty hard to make out those letters and numbers. Shambles.

No they product code wont work until after midnight. Im guessing you have the boxed version, but have selected "install via steam"...you can't pre-install this way. But you can pre-install if you select "via unilock". This will allow to install all the files and use the editor. Then at midnight you just type in the code and bam.

For crying out loud, does no-one bother to read the forums before spouting off these days?

u can install the game u just cant actually start up fm, your code isnt wrong, just the activation server isnt up yet, plus why would you even consider playing w/o the patch!!??

is steam release @ midnight?

Can't activate until midnight.

Sorry valued customer etc.

Yeah thanks mate just found it myself. :o

I went to the technical forum and the exact same problem was stated with the thread now closed, and as you said cannot do that until midnight........ho hum.

Thanks again.
