Hi all,

I bought the latest HB (THQ), which contains SR3, but I can't activate the Steam Key in my country (Sausageland).

Will give out free smilies for anyone in the United States of Whatever to activate it for me & gift back. Razz
Plus, I will love you forever.

PS: If you double-cross me you will be banned from NFO.

Anyone Question

Thanks for all volunteers in advance...

So you want to give your Steam account to someone who would activate it for you? When did you buy it? They changed the keys to region free ones after a few hours...


Or if you wouldn't mind a low-violence version:

Can't you just give the key, say activate on another account and then select that you actually don't want it in your library, but your inventory so that you can gift it?

No. It'll either go straight to your library, or say "product already owned" and reject the key, if you already have the game.

I cannot confirm this statement from my activation-attempt yesterday. Any sources to back it up?


maybe I got that one wrong ;o When they said Germans can now buy and activate I guess they meant they can get the low violence German version.

It's been a while since I last activated a key (ok, more like a year or two) but are you sure about that? I don't remember ever seeing such an option, just went straight to my library.

Ugh then there won't be any other option than actually handing over the account for a temporary time Neutral

Set your password to a temporary one, be sure to provide the key that you receive per email when the other person is trying to access your account and then wait for magic to happen Smile

I could Activate the Key i got from the Humblebundle guys without problems living in Germany (Berlin) myself.

There was no mention of it being a low violence version while activating or in my libary.

I did play it for a bit and there was a lot of blood, when i killed that berserk dude at the shop the grenade ripped off the head so i think it should be uncut.

Well it is cut - not in regards to blood and violence but the overall "political correctness" *sigh*.

Things that got cut are:

The death of a civilian will instantly alert the cops. This is particularly annoying if you lose control over your vehicle and crash into a bunch of them.
Civilians cannot be used as human shields.
Civilians don't drop money when killed.
The ♥♥♥♥♥-Mode was renamed to Hordenmodus (Horde-Mode) and then cut altogether. Yeah, doesn't really make sense...
German version is not compatible with the international one, so playing with your friends from around the world is impossible.

Politically Correct version!

I would do it for ya if I could. No censorship here in Croatia, but I already own the game so I can't really activate another version on my account.
