Really all I saw was sneering at my rage with precious few helpful posts. I was raged obviously I am only one who can get mad when something does not work even though there is no apparent reason for it to be broken. Thanks man that worked. Turns out that DCS world downloaded from origin/steam is different from the ED website one. It is visible from the main menu the steam/origin version lacks module manger and auto-update, also some module icons are missing in the bottom left menu. So when I tried to use the serial from Origin on regular DCS world it did not work but when I put it in Steam activation dialogue it activated without any problems.

HOW THE **** THIS THING WORKS!? Installed DCS from Origin(bought A 10C on sale). Found out that it is an outdated version. Downloaded latest version form the DCS site. Could not install over the old version so i deleted it. When started the new version it asked me to activate the game again despite that i already activated now it will not let me play and when i input the serial to activate the game it will throw errors at me. This the most RETARDED DRM ever conceived some people bitched about Steam when it was revealed that it would be required for Cliffs of Dover. I wonder how do they deal with this PoS DRM. Had I know what i would be dealing with i would not have bought this game even if it was sold for 1 cent.
