II/JG17_HerrMurf Posted July 19, 2018 Posted July 19, 2018 Oasis, simple mistakes are fine and we learn from them. The OP doesn’t really fit that category. Which version of the game did you have?

Was BOM from here Oasis or from G2A? it may be that only BOS got revoked if you purchased BOM from here..You may also have issues regarding activating BOS, wont the store recognize that you already own BOS or has the key been deactivated from your account? I thought that if you already own a item you can only gift the same item? Or am i wrong apologies if so. Edited July 19, 2018 by Adger

Stilico Posted July 19, 2018 Posted July 19, 2018 I can certainly understand the reasoning behind revoking those keys, but you have to wonder how many of the people that just had the rug pulled out from under them are going to re-buy the game, now. You also have to consider that they were most likely spending money on the DLC's, like OP. I'm not sure how many of those keys were purchased, but this could lead to some bad publicity.

wtornado Posted July 19, 2018 Posted July 19, 2018 (edited) When something you want looks too good to be true price wise it will probably end up being a bad choice. 22$ for this game was a steal on your vendor's part.Literally. Edited July 19, 2018 by SCG_wtornado

How much traction will that have from reasonable people. Unless they are fulfilling a confirmation bias that this company is somehow already “bad,” I fail to see “company takes steps to fight piracy,” in any sort of a poor light. The rug they were standing upon was tightly stretched across a gaping chasm. It was only a matter of time before it gave way. Edited July 19, 2018 by II/JG17_HerrMurf 3

I probably shouldn't have said publicity. Honestly, I doubt *that* many keys were sold, and that many people will care. However, my understanding with piracy is that it's simply not worth fighting most of the time. Also, is this really piracy? I think of piracy as illegally downloading the game for free. This is a bit different with people buying the game and not necessarily realizing it wasn't legit, and suddenly having the company nuke their copy. You have to remember that not everyone is as informed about this stuff as we are.

Not everyone really wants to spend 50 dollars on a sim just to find out they dont like it. This is why we buy the base game at the lowest price possible and then buy the DLC from steam or direct. The base games go on sail regularly for like half price...just this week like 4 people gave away full copies of the game...you're kidding yourself if you think this is a legit excuse.
II/JG17_HerrMurf Posted July 19, 2018 Posted July 19, 2018 Oasis has enough humility in his posts that I give him some benefit of the doubt. Less so to the OP, for the same reasons. On the other hand, if you get your drivers license at the flea market, don’t be surprised at the outcome when you present it to an officer on your car stop.....

Yeah I just opened the launcher and it's downloading the game now, but I made a support ticket to get those keys removed from my account. 1

C'mon, that's a really uncharitable thing to say. This is more like if you got a good deal on a game at a flea market and then found out it was stolen. In fact, that's pretty much exactly what this is.
The-Doctor Posted July 19, 2018 Posted July 19, 2018 Sorry i did the same thing , buying a game from a grey market , the discount itself and the price made it obvious that this was illegal, so when i paid my money to that Grey market , i took full responsibility for what’s gonna happen , beside if the company was so hungry for money why they do discounts + even big companies are unable to hire lawyers to sue every Grey market take a deep breath , think rationally 1
