Invalid Serial Error

Post » Fri Dec 31, 2010 2:55 pm

I have the same Problem. I checked the ports from my router. Checked the key (key from ea support) and reentered often, but nothing worked. Firwall is off, reinstalled often, this all didn't help.

I have the same error. My copy of the game was from Amazon UK. I've tried re-entering the correct key multiple times, but it continues to say that my serial code is invalid.

Is there any solution to this?

My key is entered correct, it works fine from ~17:00 till ~23:00 (GMT+2), but I can't play the rest of time - then the serial invalid message pops up. Maybe the keys are selled twice or the keys are given to more than one person from ea support? Or the servers blocking them for hell sake... Just want to play at any times!

I would try entering your numbers 3 ways

1) cut and paste if that dont work
2)use lowercase letters
3)manually enter it

I had a member use lowercase letters and he was in dunno if that was pure luck or a glitch

on your login screen inside crysis below your password do you see your cd posted in there? If not you should be able to enter it right there as well

I enter serial number with "-", without "-", capital/small letters. Created the new account. Helps nothing, writes - Serial number isn't valid.

Serial number is entered correctly, it works mostly at afternoon/evening but mostly not on other times (reentering the key will not help!!).... Mabye it has something to do with the dailight :) Really not funny, bought a game and cannot play.

It is still NOT working.

Thank you, EA and Crytech!

Yesterday i was at the "server list" inside multiplayer and when i tried to join any of the rooms it would give me the invalid key error. Today, it won′t let me pass through Multiplayer-campaign-etc screen.

crytek didn't fixed this problem, and it would not be fixed with the new patch.. so you guys having this problem can only to cry at yours 39.99 euros.

When will correct a problem with an input in network game - "The code is void. For game in a network mode the valid serial number is required"? I did the preorder only that to play in a multiplayer. So never also couldn't come into a network mode. The desire in general something was gone to buy the made Crytek
