I've just bought from Amazon UK - Crusader Kings complete, Victoria complete, and Europa Universalis 3 complete but only EU3 has a key to get a hat. It's not so much the hat as the presumption of banditry if you don't have it. And this is my first post, which is not a very promising start is it?

Couldn't Paradox add some kind of icon to this kind of games?

i'm in exactly the same situation - it's a shame as i like having the icons
 
To the Guiscard: -- Good point! We earn our money and part with it in good faith, hoping to get a good product from a good company(which includes good support, hopefully --imagine if toyota/ford or Microsoft for that matter, did not offer aftersales service). The issue you are talking about extends to their lack of effort with manuals and finishing of games in general. Many of the Paradox releases I've played have had to be "fixed" by modders/gamers to make them playable!!!

Its sad, because Paradox make games that are FANTSTIC in concept and playability(I always dreamed of games like the ones they make!)...yet it seems their finishing and support always let them down.

It feels like they come up with a great idea, slap it together into a working form and flippantly toss it out the back door for us to squabble over in the back yard that is the download portal, like so many despised and undervalued mongrel dogs. "There! Have that!"

;)
 
Me too! Complete CK of Amazon.co.uk(I like a box+CD, i'm old fashioned like that) and would like to register, but as has been said; if there are no penalties for not being able to register then i'm fine with that.

I'm looking at EUIII complete next, and hope i get to register with that game as i want to show my support for paradox.
 
Well I bought Ck Complete too and have no key to register it is possible to send me one when I sent you a copy of the receipt well have the same problem with hoi anthology second edition
 
So, uhm, I'll be buying CK off GamersGate, and as I understand from this thread, I won't be able to register the Complete pack here.
However, I see I can buy CK and DV seperately. Would that allow me to register it here properly?
 
I believe so if it's the same as how Victoria and Victoria:Revolutions are set up. Not that there is any penalty whatsoever for not registering either game in terms of using the games' boards in the part of the forum.
 
Yes, I'm aware of that.
Still, bought seperately they're the same price as the Complete pack, so...
If that does allow me to register the game, I'll go for that option.
I like icons. :)

Is there any drawback to buying them seperately, by the way. Does the Complete pack contain any extra's (other than patches maybe)?

Can anyone confirm that I can register DV if bought seperately?
 
If you buy DV on Gamersgate then you can definitely register it

I think you also can register DV, if you buy the Complete Pack.

There is no drawback in buying them seperately
 
Ok, thanks for the reply.

I think you also can register DV, if you buy the Complete Pack.

Really? Then why is everyone complaining they can't? Or did I misinterpret the previous posts?

If you buy the Complete Pack in a boxed version then there is no cd-key. Only if you buy at Gamersgate (so a downloadable version) you get a cd-key.

The Complete Pack on CD wasn't distributed by Paradox but by some local distributors in England and Scandinavia.

Oh BTW, as a Kolonel you always should 'salute' a Veldmaarschalk, since I outrank you :)
 
Aaah. Ok, so there should be no problem registering here when buying off GamersGate, whatever version.
Thanks for clearing that up.

Hereby I salute, then, m'lord. :)
