WEIRD THING ABOUT Deauthorizing/Authorizing a Machine PcGAMe

Post » Sun Dec 11, 2011 6:02 pm

Bought the game through game shop PC DVD box Crysis 2 .
Installed and activated at house PC (thats 1)
Well I just used one activation, because I had some problems with HDD and I re-installed it.
but I forget to deauthorize OK MY MISTAKE
At that time I didn't even know Crysis 2 has 5 activation limit
because I thought it might pc dvd several times to install and uninstall
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
now this is WHAT I wanna to ask HOW AND WHY

Though it's weird I looked at my activation.exe just now,
and it says 5/5 remaining.--- It should say 3/5. ---
---------------------
because I install 2 times PC Crysis 2
what going be for the next times ???????
when show me 5/5 now ?????

------------------------------------------------------------
I really dislike having activations which has a 5 limit
why not with 15 times or NEVER limit ?

Im not going to buy this game again
I do not intend to pay something back if I already bought it
if the game keeps
to tell me the number of this game limited exceeded 5/5 OFFF
u must buy another no no no no no

This is just one more thing to hate about this game :/
things like this that will stop me from buying games with limited activations in future

sorry for the rant but I think its a bug/issue with this activation.

Well hey, I have a similar issue here...last night my C2 crashed and when i rebooted, I had to introduce my serial code again, thing is, I had heard of limited activations before, and my activation.exe says that I've got 5 out of 5...when I've only done 2, so shouldn't it like say 3/5? what exactly is it that triggers one more activation?....

Thing is, what the hell happens once someone goes beyond the 5th activation? What are you like supposed to not be able to activate it again, hence not being able to play it again?...
