Does anyone have experience with buying FO3/NV/Oblivion and pirating DLC? Or do you basically have to buy DLC if you go the legit route or risk steam bans and stuff.

I don't mind buying a game here and there but they are already working on 2 DLCs for Skyrim

I'm definitely not going to buy this one, at least not now. Even if it looks absolutely great (and the hype level is reaching the roof), I still regret having bought Oblivion back then Laughing

so you play as soon as preloading finishes or still on friday ?
On friday of course. Preloads just balance server loads and you get to play as soon as it gets officially released.

I do and can confirm that the pirated DLC works perfectly on legit installs. The DLC is just data files (ESM/BSA, etc) and doesn't require activation or authorisation. They function just like mods, enabled via Data Files, so no issue with Steam and cracked copies,.

So when exactly have we determined that the game will unlock for those activating with an AUS VPN?

Given the protection that this game uses, I would expect a cracked version online no more than 12 hours after this.

Ditto. It looks great and all but so did Oblivion a few years back and we all know that left more to be desired..

Maybe if you actually started reading, you'd find out why.

Code:
Play on the day of release!
You'll receive your download links and activation code by email the 10/11/2011 at 23:00 GMT.

Yes I know. But I got keys for bf3 and fm12 about a day before I was supposed to. Of course I'm not amazed that I do not have the key yet, it was just a pointless post.

@DR

Um, that was referring to earlier titles mate. Oblivion/FO3/FONV. I can't say the same applies to Skyrim because I don't know how Skyrim's data files work yet. It might be that Beth changed it BECAUSE OF the piracy. Or they might not have.

isnt there aussies here on the hump that could set you guys a SOCKS or a proxy? Just quickly decrypt then go back to offline mode. Paying for that would seem really low.

CJS' RU keys are region free AFTER activation. Needs a VPN/RUS IP to activate, but as long as you preload outside of the VPN, you get English.

Question about buying Russian keys.

If I activate one of them using a VPN will I piss off Gaben? Is my account on risk?

Doesn't activating a game start the preload automatically? Do you have to time the disconnect or something? Or am I remember the process wrong?

Nope. You're always given the option (after purchase or activation) whether you wish to install now or later. Just choose "no" and deactivate VPN.

I know that, but I was assuming it would be the same.
