CD-key?

shifty · 01-21-2002, 07:19 AM

Hey guys!

Whenever a new game it out my friend and i usually pool our money and buy it, but would that work with this game? I am wondering about having two players playing MOHAA at the same time. Like cd-key problems and what not. Well get back to me, thanks!

Will work. I have three comps using one cd key.

Mark you serious? If so then there's no point me and my bro both getting one...

If it req. a CD to play then you have to both buy it because the games now-a-days have blocks on them to keep them from being copied. My bro and I both used Serious Sam, only one purchase, and played LAN all the time.

Our main thing is being able to play online. Cause mark may have just been talking about loading it on 3 comps but not playing online with them all at the same time

Mark can you clear that up for us? Like logging all three comps and see if you can play a game with one CD-key? Thankz

My bro and I share one copy of the game and one cd-key and we play online at the same time, but the copy we have is warez. I'd wait until the 22nd or later to see if this is possible with the retail copy, but I'm betting that the game is released people with warez will be screwed for MP. If this is the case, I'll buy the retail game.

I believe you unfortunately CAN share the same CD KEY.

There's no CDKEY Authentication Server for MoH:AA so it doesn't matter if you use the same CDKEY as someone else.

This would probably be the only practical case of it...two siblings or friends sharing the same CD KEY since they live together. But with Warez they just steal it out right.

Oh well. Not me losing the money..

that's sad, the only reason for me to buy 2 copies is so that my bro and i can play mp together. should really thank EA tho, cause now i won't need to spend as much $ compare with other games i bought like d2 and cs etc.

With QIII I've got 3 PCs all with the same CD key online at the same time.

This is ONLY for those that bought the game and want to play without the CD.

MaRkiE · 01-21-2002, 10:45 AM

No, I have 3 comps that all use the same cd key online. I know some games, like wolfenstein, require different cd keys this one doesnt. To prove my point. 5000-0000000-0000000-5068 is my cd key. Anyone can go right ahead and use it.

Well aint this strange that ever new games that comes out now days have all sorts off DC-Key´s or other copy protections system. But MoH:AA Havent got eny thing like this to Protect it from spreading out.

Dont blow youre horns to loud guys, this is a simple net code adjustment, one single 30kb patch could set this up.

The game needs a CD key authentication like Q3 and HL does. That will force people to buy the game for Multiplayer and keep the warez cheating people out of the games.
