hey guys,

i just started playing Crysis 2 and im enjoying the online gameplay.
i don't have a gaming laptop and i cant bring my desktop everywhere i go ( its pretty heavy and loaded)

and i have an external 2tb usb 3.0 which i use to bring my stuff with me since
i go to school and there are computer cafe's outside the campus.

so i copied the game (program files client) to my external hard drive, copied it to one of the
computer cafe's computers, tested launching it , but it asked for my cd-key

i'm afraid if i use the key i use at home(only have 1 copy of crysis 2) it would disable my cd key at home.

so is it safe to use the same key? and im not buying another copy just to play in their shop, also their computers are deep freezed. so a restart would delete any changes a customer made.

thanks..

One copy per computer I think the license says.I know some games allow you to deauthorise so you can use the same key again.

Most proprietary software only let's you install one copy per computer but licenses vary.

you can deauthorise crysis 2 also, i saw the option but i havent tried it before though.. so i cant use huh? even if it gets deleted everytime i log out of the computer cafe..

You can type the same CD key 5 times, but only 1 time you will be able to play online...

If you click on the 'Activations manager' found in the Bin32 folder it will tell you the current state. Usually if all is well it will say 4/5 activations left.

its not safe to play with ur cd key on a public computer...

some cybercafes have hidden keyloggers installed by other users.... stealing passwords and cdkeys...

i know this because 10 years ago when i was younger and much more evil-er, i stole counterstrike's cdkey from one of the cybercafes in my country which did not have admin protection.... back then counterstrike's cd-key was stored in the computer registry.

so, try not risk it ;)

ok very helpfull thanks guys :D , hope i will find a solution to my problem..

bump, i need som1 who has solved my problem :D
