Why a forum code?

[Schou]

Hey there,

I just recently bought the King Arthur Collection on GamersGate, thus receiving a 'forum code' but I haven't really seen any place to type in the code under 'My Games'. Is this intentional or did you simply forget to put in King Arthur? I don't know if there has been a thread like this previously so please excuse me if this has already been covered.

I was confused at this too. I believe it had to do with restricting access to the forums to people who actually have the game. This is a function for all paradox games EXCEPT king arthur. I just had to wait a few days to get my account activated. So I don't believe the forum code has any use. I didn't get one with my Steam purchase anyway.

Linda and Kate probably know more about this than I, so perhaps they will tell you more.

Oh, I see! I thought it was just for others to see which games you were playing etc. So why didn't Paradox do the same with King Arthur? Peculiar.
