For a speedier download, just put the activation code in steam first, and let steam handle the download at top speed for you.

I just want to make sure I'm understanding this properly. If I order it off that site, they'll send me a CD key in which I can put in steam, and I can download it from steam and play it? Even if I'm in the US and the release date isn't until next month? Please respond, I want to play this game before I leave for basic training!! :D

Well to be perfectly honest I know some of it is my PC.

I'm running
Win 7 64
ATI 5770
8 GB DDR3 RAM
The last 3 are upgrades on my old machine running my 2.13 Quad Core.

HOWEVER

I did expect a bit more than I am getting since I run Crysis 2 on full graphics @ 80 FPS.

With IL2 COD, with everything set to "Medium" I am getting around 30 FPS at the lowest point 40 FPS at the highest point flying over London, which is smooth and fine, it's the damned stutters which ruin the game for me... they are not constant by any means, but when they happen it's incredibly annoying.

This is NOT a FPS. These game need very little CPU to run and a lot of GPU.

Flight sims OTOH need a LOT of CPU and less GPU to run at their best.

It appears that only if you are from the U.S.A. you will not be able to purchase from JustFlight. There is no restriction for Canada. I purchase my copy 2 days ago, received the key before leaving the JustFlight site, and entered it into Steam to begin the download.
My connection is not all that fast, however I was playing in just a few hours.

Quote from the JustFlight site: "Please note - due to publisher's restriction, this game is not available for sale from European websites to the United States of America. "
If our neighbors to the south can still purchase the game from JustFlight, then that is a good thing. More sales means more development.
Hope that clears things up.

maybe they updated the site, cause i didnt see that warning when i bought my 3 copys. If anyone has bought it lately maybe they can post that it still works.

I have a program that can change your ip and make the site think your from the UK so you can get it. let me know and ill send it your way.

I'm sure there is other places out there as well or better yet maybe a fellow flying buddy has a paypal account and you can send the cash to him he buys it and ships it to you.

I got it from them without problems a month ago...But I have had a JustFlight account for years so maybe that had something to do with it. Perhaps UBI demanded they stop selling it to American users? Look harder for a way around this though, it might be right infront of you.

Yes, I can confirm that...just ignore that message, complete the transaction, and receive the key, skip the download (too slow). Open a Steam account, submit the key when asked, Steam will then download the game...no problems, worked great, easy for me here in the U.S.A.:grin:

one of my clan mates couldnt get his to work either, is bank wouldnt allow the transaction to go through cause it was in another country, so i bought it for him and worked fine last night as well. so yes it still does work, if it doesnt it could be your bank stopping the transaction thinking its fraud, so you may have to call your bank or credit card co. to clear up.

A hard deal to pass up.

I got the region error but just continued on and it went through and I got my activation code right away at the end of the transaction.

If not, that's still ok. Like somebody else said in some other topic, "I hope 1C get's that extra 20 bucks". They're gonna need a cash flow to continue supporting this game.

My current problem is with Steam. My password isn't working, so I asked for a new one, and they sent it to an email address I've never heard of. Now, they want ME to verify who I am!!! by sending them some copies of receipts of things I've bought from them. I've never bought anything, I only registered so that I could get CoD.:evil:

That just doen't make sense. If you haven't activated CLoD on Steam yet than just create a new Steam account. Once you get Steam working you can activate and download Cliffs of Dover.
FYI A Steam Forum name/password is not the same as a Steam acount name/password.
If you want we can set up a ventrillo or TS3 server and work figure this out.

Let me know binky. Steam works just fine, just like any other client. People new to Steam should get it running on their computer first, BEFORE trying to activate a game on it. As a Windows Vista user I can say that, as in any software installation, the UAC and Windows Firewall may need initial adjustments.

I purchased it from GetGames today, it is on sale again for 24.99. Justflight still has it listed for 49.99. To get it to let me purchase I used Paypal rather than a credit card. Since the sale went through Paypal.com.uk I guess they do not see that as a US purchase.

No problems at all, steam accepted the activation key and it installed on my drive in seconds (as I already had it on my drive from a previous install into a new account...I was worried about having it on my account before the actual U.S. release...a baseless fear).

Also cool, it simply used the entire game installation so I did not need to apply the beta patch again nor redo my several controllers (what a pain that would be).
