Activation Questions

[Jason_25]

I am out of activations for DCS after 1 week.

 

Is it correct that ED has no obligation to renew my request for further activations? If not, how many requests can be made? Must I be entirely out of activations before I make the request? What is the estimated turn around time?

 

What is the official procedure for when one runs out of activations? Purchase the game again?

 

Using my math: $25 x 52 weeks equals $1300/year. Unfortunately my income does not allow for that much of a gaming budget.

 

Perhaps I could come up with $100-$300 to ED to be assured to be able to play the game I purchased?

 

Sorry for wasting your time and being such a cheapskate. If I had realized it was going to be such a deep financial investment, I would have probably passed on this one.

Hey Jason, welcome to the forums.

 

How come that you used up all your activations within one week? That is a highly unlikely scenario, unless something goes very wrong. Normally you would install and activate the game, and only if you do a major hardware upgrade/change the OS it would be necessary to use a deactivation or an activation.

My brother wasted all of his activations too .. within 5 minutes!

The installation ate them all.

 

He pressed some wrong button while trying to start the game so he un-knowingly wasted them.

Hello,

 

this is exactly my case as well. I have wasted all activations unintentionally just trying to get the program running. I have already sent an email to appropriate address (or so I hope) and also PM'd to Tez - no response so far.

 

Please, could someone help me?
