This is beyond rediculous!!!! I drove 100 miles one way to nearest Best Buy to get the pre-order, played threw the beta. Drove 100 miles again to get the retail game (which comes with 30 days free game play). Activated my account (so it says) and am not allowed to log in. I dont have a cridit card and am choosing to buy game time cards from Best Buy when needed. So that being said i should be able to play for 30 days on the time that came with the game. So help me god If someone tells me that i'm gonna have to drive 100 miles one way again to buy a game time card just to get into the game so i can use my free 30 days i'm gonna be done with this game for good. What i've read on the forums and all the complaints of this login issue are more then this game is worth at this point!! Never in my life have i dumped so much money on a game in purchase of game (50$) and pre-order (5$ off retail) and TIME AND TRAVEL INVOLVED WITH GETTING THE GAME TO ONLY BE LOCKED OUT. WHY?, I DONT HAVE A CREDIT CARD AND YOUR SYSTEM ISNT SET-UP TO HANDLE THOSE OF US THAT AT THE END OF OUR 30 DAYS WOULD THEN RESUBSCRIBE WITH A GAME CARD LICENSED BY YOU AND SOLD AT BEST BUY. WHAT A JOKE!!!
p.s. I SENT IN A TICKET TWO DAYS AGO ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND INCLUDED MY RETAIL KEY CODE EVEN....CAN I GET A WHOOT, WHOOT......RESPONSE FROM SOMEONE THAT HAS A CLUE????
When I try to log in to the game I get the message: "You are not allowed to log into this server at this time.".
I reentered my key and got the message "This product key is already active, it cannot be used again." I have waited for several hours to try and get in with no luck. I bought the Digital Deluxe Edition from Atari.
You'd think that instead of spending money on marketing (Trying to get a world record...), they might perhaps bother to spend money on fixing problems with the game..
same, here. I even purchased the 12-month membership!
I was able to play up to last night (Feb 8).
I tried submitting a ticket like you suggested, but YOUR TICKET PAGE DOES NOT WORK!
:mad:
I tried it on two different browsers on two different computers...Nothing comes up when you click any of the choices!
Im very confused now I was reading the pre-order faq
Q: If I preorder the game, but dont pick up the retail game, will I be stopped from playing past the Head Start?
A: Not right away. We will have a grace period of several days to give everyone the opportunity to pick up the retail copy of the game.
does this mean I have to purchase a retail version as well as forking out £40 for the preorder ?
wow wow wow wait a minute,
does that means after i spendid 59,99 $ on Digital deluxe + 239,99 $ for llifetime supscription = 299,98 $
for a game i could only play from headstart till grace period?? and than have to go to a retailer and buy the game again?????
WTF are they thinking???
i thought lifetime ment lifetime, and the reason i order it online is so i dont have to go to the crappy retail stores anymore. its cold outside !!!!!!
I am having the same problem i reedem my key and i have subsciption im getting the same error message
I have also payed for life time please get my account up in the next 30 min thank you
Yes, this is quite BS. I contacted Amazon to let them know that one of their vendors is treating their customer like TRIBBLE. It's really unacceptable after paying so much.
My brother and I both got the deluxe off of direct 2 drive. His works but mine doesn't the only difference is that he has the lifetime and I don't have a subscription.
contact the 3rd party retailer or website where you got the pre order and they will have a 2nd key for you. you should've gotten a new retail key after tuesday feb 2nd via email or through the 3rd party downloader software like steam and D2D.
your account status should look similar to this if u got digital download version

So this means that its the fault of the 'third party retailer' for not sending me my retail code.
But wait a minute I purchaced this from Atari, don't Atari own cryptic. so isnt it cryptics fault.
thank you!
