Same here, Error 1001 Invalid CD Key :( I hope it is related to release, but how can a guy play it already as seen on this forum..:confused:

They likely managed to get the Russian version which would validate through that region's Steam servers. Russian version is out since 25th.

Cannot not activate the game?
That's a double-negative, making it positive.
So, you can activate the game.
:rolleyes:

For Hawks,

At the time of this post, I have pre purchased through Steam and it says in the store section:

"this game will unlock in approximately 1 day and 19 hours".

Which I estimate to be about 4.am AEDT on the 1st of April. And if what I have read correct them that will also be the same time that those who have a hard copy will be able to activate it.

Not some sort of weird joke I hope. :-P

You're joking right?
No you won't be able to activate it until its release on steam, its always released in a controlled way on steam with timezones, now live with it.

If I activate the game on one PC then buy another one because it does not work Will I be able to transfer the activation to the new PC?

Activation refers to the copy not the Pc so...

So it will work on any PC i install it to as long as I remember my Steam login details.

Excuse me, put the "live with it" attitude is getting stale. I'm not saying we didn't know, although we learned very late in the pre-release cycle. Also, the game's been in development for 6 years, so if i had it in my hands i wouldn't take it back only to buy it the next day.

I'm just saying it's stupid the way it works. If you pay for it you should be able to play it, no questions asked. If Steam was just an online distribution platform it would be fine, it's just that there's layers upon layers of conditionals that makes it a royal pain in the balls to deal with for many people.

"Live "with it" is not helping anyone: we're stuck with a system that doesn't suit our needs and you're stuck with listening to our complaints.

There's a lot of people who bought the game out of support for maddox games but would still want it to be optional, we're just giving the developers some time to work on the important stuff first (optimizations ,etc), but you're gonna be hearing about it again in the not too distant future. How about you live with that? ;)

I have the same problem
