Slazi Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Can we transfer our keys to steam now we don't need the old cd version anymore? FC3 is the only reason I don't use the steam version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tobaschi Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 i think you have to wait till DCS: Flaming Cliffs 3 is available via steamshop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slazi Posted January 25, 2014 Author Share Posted January 25, 2014 Available now :) Just need to wait for key updates. Great stuff. Actually, I forgot about BS2 :( My upgrade wont register. But still, moving forward! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrJoel Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Mine is not working either. It usually seems to take 1-2 weeks though for me. Fingers crossed. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pii Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Available now :) Just need to wait for key updates. Great stuff. Actually, I forgot about BS2 :( My upgrade wont register. But still, moving forward! You can install it manually and then when you launch it from Steam it will activate and work. There is a post someplace here (sorry forget where) and it works great. I had all my modules installed in Steam except FC3 and I have all modules. I used this method to get BS2 upgrade to work from Steam with no problem. I'll see if I can find the thread with how to update it later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pacotito Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 ED has to send the purchased serial numbers to steam. Usually they do it once a month. With the number of FC3 keys it may take some time to sync the serials with steam. Pacotito I7-5820k@4.5 Z99 extreme4 16gb ddr4 520gb ssd.

fignuts Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 I am also interested in learning when existing FC3 keys will start working with steam. Is there any information other than "keys sometimes get uploaded monthly"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkateZilla Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 When the Existing keys are merged, All you'd have to do is: Games Menu, Activate Game On Steam, I Agree, Next, Paste License Key, Next.

KaspeR32 Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Hey when someone is able to (including me) activate their ED Store bought FC3 on steam, please post here.

Quaggles Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 I just tried activating my FC3 bought on the ED Store to Steam and I am getting this error: I live in Australia if that helps, previously I was getting the invalid product key message as the keys had not been synced but now I'm getting this.

ED Team Wags Posted February 6, 2014 ED Team Share Posted February 6, 2014 The most recent key merger to the Steam key database was prior to the release of DCS: FC3. The next key merge will be next month.

winchesterdelta1 Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Why is it actually not possible to do all the key merges at once? For me as a simple person it should be a pretty easy job to do. Or do the key's need to be converted first or something. Go in close, and when you think you are too close, go in closer.

pacotito Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 It is possible and I'm sure that's how they do it. Unfortunately the last key dump was prior to FC3 being available on steam.
