aarondmarshall Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 So we, the paying customers, suffer as a result of SI/Sega wading into the un-winnable DRM war against software piracy. Smashing. Within weeks someone will have cracked this and it will be available to anyone, what is the point? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoftusRoad Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 HAHA Everyone is acting like heroin addicts! It's frustrating but thats life! Why are you wasting your time telling everyone your never going to buy the game again when you clearly know it's not true. Buy FIFA manager or Championship Manager if your not happy, but I bet you'll find them nowhere near as good as FM09!!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

matty_8 Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Is the Steam activation working better than the softanchor one? I might uninstall and install again and chose Steam. This game better be worth it this year. Shambles Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meph Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Am I correct in saying that we cannot play the game at all until this lets us do the online authentication? Or can it be played but just without the updates? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hassebasse80 Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 I managed to get softanchor to work, but when i restart the game i have to type in the key again, as my trial period is over?

WilsonJuve Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 just to make sure my error isnt something different does everybodys say were sorry but this installation of football manager 2009 certificate could not be activated for the following reason the application was unable to connect to the internet please check your connection etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spikeyboots Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 My problem is with soft anchor. Is that where most peoples problems are with the game? Mine says "We're sorry, but this installation of Football manager 2009 Certificate could not be activated for the following......" Apparently I'm not online when I am. And then going back my trial period has expired, What bloody trial period????? The two hours that I've tried getting it to work?? Is this where people are saying they just need to keep on clicking on "Next" to get it to work? This is stupid, surely Sigames and Sega knew how many copies they were going to sell! Any FM Administrator - When will it finally work? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FH75 Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 One thing. When i managed to insert my key on steam and installed the game then it did a fast update, is that update the patch? still getting the error on softanchor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

raullim7 Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 my sending activation request 'form' has been going on for the last 5+ mins.. at first, it was rejected immediately claiming that there is no internet connect.. so is that a good sign that success is within the corner?

2000AD Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Man this is taking me back to the hassle I had when Half Life 2 first came out. While I'm waiting for the servers to be de-borked can someone answer me a question: Why use both Steam and Soft Anchor? Surely one annoying copyright protection program is enough?

bboy123 Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 i wait and wait and wait and wait how fustrating is this? ive never experienced anything like this, how hard can it be to play a game of football manager? seriously how hard? i never in my wildest dreams imagined it would be this difficult Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
