Harryseaess Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 I have bought the boxed version om FM09 from www.thehut.com and it has only arrived today. So I have gone to install it and it asks me if I want to authenticate the game via Steam or Uniloc (if I choose this option I will use internet). So why one is better? Which one is easier? Thanks.

Torres09 Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Do not try the phones!!!! I found that choosing the internet option on the SoftAnchor page worked perfectly (about 30 seconds), and this was after a nightmare weekend on the phones!

Harryseaess Posted November 17, 2008 Author Share Posted November 17, 2008 Thanks for the quick reply. My one concern about steam is that I hvae heard people complaining about having to sign in everytime they want to play? Whereas on Unicol it states 'Activation service that will only need to be run once each time you install the game'. Decisions, decisions... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can create a shortcut to FM from steam and just load that, It loads FM and you dont know steam is there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torres09 Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 No decision, Click the internet option on the SoftAnchor page, enter the key code and you're in! No need to register with steam, or download anything etc etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

trekman Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Unilok is the best option imo. You also don't need steam installed so that's a bonus I think because it seems to me that authentication this way is causing most of peoples problems.
