JordRamsFan Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Right iv been told that Fm09 give's you 5 'seats', meaning that you can install this on 5 different computers... So does this mean that Fm09 will work without the disk, once installed?? And what are the 'Legal & Illegal' rules that come along with the 'seats' Cause i dont want to do anything to break the law.. Like could me and a mate chip in and buy the game and play it without the disk at our own homes legally? Or would it be Illegal? Some sort of sum up would be nice...

ahmufcwafc Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 You can play without the disk after activating, but its illegal to share the activation licences with your friend as far as I know. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neji Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 You don't need the disk to play once activated but you and your mate needs seperate copies. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
santy001 Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 One thought is surely, if you and someone else do pay half each towards a game, you technically own half of that licence lol. I mean if 2 people buy a house they both have a 50-50 stake and same on joint bank accounts etc. Although through this little flaw in the system I know SI are down about 20 sales on this time last year lol, lads at uni don't seem to be too fussed about adhering to the no chipping in system lol.

It's one license for one person. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JordRamsFan Posted November 30, 2008 Author Share Posted November 30, 2008 You say you can only play one at once... How on earth will SI know if the game is playing played on too seperate computers? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeeWee Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 At a guess, I'd say that's a "moral" obligation rather than a technical restriction. As in, you should not play simultaneously, but there's nothing except for your own moral fibre that will stop you from doing so. Unless SI/SEGA has lied to us when stating the DRM doesn't phone home.
