    I'm going to give simplycdkeys until this evening to get back to me about the security thing or give me the bf4 keys before I go elsewhere. They haven't taken any money from me yet so here's hoping cancelling and buying from another site won't be too painful.

    edit:

    but not for premium...but that can wait.

    Anyone else get this? How long should it take?

    I had the same issue and also had a problem regards the SMS verification (if a company uses 2 step that makes me more confident they have a clue what they're doing). Sent a mail to CDKeys and had a response and resolution within 5 minutes. Impressed and pre-loading now :)

    I might have p*ssed them off enough that they gave me a key to go away :D

    was emailing them trying to bluff my way by that I wasnt actually in the UK, but just that my paypal account was created while I lived there.

    They didnt buy it but 3 minutes later when I checked my product page the cd key was there.

    2 and half hours to download, then to vpn trick this bad boy into letting me play!!!!

    sweet my emblems carried over from the beta :D

    Nope. G2Play saying its tomorrow/thurs they'll send keys out, they might revise this given the flak they're getting when most other places are sending them out now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,698 ✭✭✭✭BlitzKrieg


    yeah but if you are in ireland you at least have an excuse...

    They have stated clearly UK customers wont get their keys and I tried to bluff being back in ireland by using my old address :D

    no I didnt.

    my simplycdkeys paypal order expired due to them never finalizing it.

    I ordered from cdkeys.com and they send you a link in an email that shows the cd key when its available.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 260 ✭✭Stingerbar

    When did you order? They said they're sending the keys in the order of the dates people bought the keys.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,558 ✭✭✭✭dreamers75


    logged onto g2play and my points are back and Bf4 is in my cart, no paypal refund.

    hmmmmmmm


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,936 ✭✭✭ewj1978


    ordered thru cdkeys. got the eamil with links straight away.. When clicked the links showed the " we are reviewing the order blah blah blah"

    Waited 5 mins then went into my account and clicked on downloadable content and there they were.. well the BF4 + DLC anyway.. Premium says its not released till just before the 1st Nov.


    Edit*

    Seems cdkeys just crashed.. can't even log in anymore.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,698 ✭✭✭✭BlitzKrieg


    cdkeys has been crashing on and off all day.

    their facebook was also being constantly flooded with demands for the cd keys so they've resorted to deleting most of them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,770 ✭✭✭Nedved85


    Woop - code has arrived - Time to leave work :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,929 ✭✭✭✭ShadowHearth


    Well, I guess if we are not getting it by 18:00, we are not getting it at all.... ffs...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,419 ✭✭✭jonski

    Ordered from SimplyCDkeys, on the 4th October, didn't receive any of the account verification email bull**** and both keys arrived at 5:15 today.

    Started the preload (24GB) and off to work I went, should be done by the time I get home around 12. I live in Derry btw so this is all to a UK customer...

    Will I be able to get going on multiplayer tonight? Or will I have to go though a VPN?

    Cheers.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,929 ✭✭✭✭ShadowHearth


    Just got my keys too from SimplyCDkeys. Preloading now. WOOT WOOT!

    Disable the VPN once activated i would imagine.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,271 ✭✭✭TireeTerror


    As soon as you activate the game, you no longer have to use the VPN for anything. You just play as normal like you do on BF3. The VPN is only to activate it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 964 ✭✭✭James74


    I truly despise posts that just quote a previous post and add the word "This".
    But in this case I have simply no choice but to do...

    This


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,929 ✭✭✭✭ShadowHearth


    So any easy way to do it? Would Spotflux thing work for it too?

    Ive followed your instructions and activated it but I have to keep using the vpn or else it wont work :/ I tried rebooting my pc and Battlefield is inactivated when I open Origin

    I get the same following this guys instructions https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XaaRDv8wvZY but when I log out, close down the VPN and revert to my Irish IP and try to launch the game from the desktop shortcut I get the message below

    Origin Release Control. Unreleased Title. Battlefield 4 will release on November 1, 2013 and cannot yet be played.

    I do not understand what has happened. The only reason to use the VPN is for the Origin client to think you are in Korea which then activates the game. Once its activated, you no longer have to fool Origin and the VPN is no longer required.

    Just to be clear, have the VPN on when you first join a server, once you are fully connected, disconnect the VPN program and you will now be connected from your normal IP address. You can now leave the server and join anything you want to without any further involvement with the VPN software.

    Nope. Physical here too, but bought it because it'd take me about a week to download 24GB.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,213 ✭✭✭MajesticDonkey


    I GOT MY FOOKING KEY :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 964 ✭✭✭James74


    Oh ffs! :mad: What date did you order?


    Jaysus, I really am feeling particularly entitled, amn't I.

    Not fully correct mate, after i downloaded and played a map or two i rebooted PC then had to use vpn again to access the game.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 207 ✭✭psugrue


    just after hopping in here, about to order from cdkeys but just wondering will i need to use a vpn to activate the product key or will it work straight away?
