LeBaiton Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Don't worry folks... If you do manage to register by some fluke accident, the next Soft Anchor problem rears its ugly head. "Your trial period has EXPIRED! Please visit: http://www.sigames.com" "This unlock key is already active. To purchase an unlock key, please visit: http://www.sigames.com" So I guess you'll have to buy a copy of FM09 everytime you want to play the game once. Why did I spend money on this? :confused: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fletch_YTFC Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Guys, I was playing the game earlier. Quit to eat my pizza - what a mistake!! Now I know this I'm gonna keep my fm running forever!!! Didn't think I'd have to go through this ******** everytime I play!? What would happen if my internet crashed - I wouldn't be able to use something I spent MY money on. This is even worse than CM4... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
treble_yell_:-) Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 my guess is that despite SI claiming otherwise , that the drm phones home every time you start the game up, and although you fluked activation , your not getting through to the server to validate the license. regardless si are a bunch of amateurs , its not like there isnt precedence for games needing online activation having these massive problems on release day Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interloper Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Wauw even more crap on top of the drm, this is just getting nasty SI. Drop the DRM while you still can or lose 50% of your customers who dont put up with your BS. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamselv Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 the advice softanchor has "DO NOT QUIT THE GAME....EVER" If you have to keep the game running constantly, then SEGA/SI will earn more money from the in-game advertisements, right? Do I smell a conspiracy? Sorry about the joke, I know it's not what you guys need right now. As soon as this initial mass-activation is over, then I do think that many of you will start being able to play your game. I know it's easy for me to say since I'm not the one trying to get my game activated (canceled my preorder when I heard they would be using DRM). Good luck with getting the game to run.

inmotion_slb Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 i quit the game by purpose knowing i wouldnt be able to play it again cuz it will ask me for the code again. but i just closed and launched the game i couple of times (each time asking for key again) and it just randomly worked. dont put the key in again, just close the game and launch it a couple of times. dont know why but it worked for me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
