It may be breaking an EULA, but it is not illegal for him to sell his whole steam account.

If you do it you can have that steam account banned so no-one can play the game.

This is a breach of EU law. Software licenses are resalable.

Software licenses, yes. But games bought over Steam isn't a license to said game, as Steam has cleverly stated that you don't purchase the game, but merely the right to use it through Steam. By calling it a subscription, they cleverly avoid the law.

The only license mentioned in the Steam Subscriber Agreement is the Steam-client itself. Everything else is handled as subscriptions, which basically means that Steam can do whatever they want, whenever they want with whatever you've "subscribed" to.

It's one of the dirty little secrets of Steam, and one that damn near everyone either don't know about or don't care about.

You are right. Nothing is wrong with this game. It runs very good at my PC and I can shoot down enemy planes :!:

No, they don't work if you sell them second hand.

There's a chance that that may be illegal.

And if you seriously play with that "computer" in your sig I just want to mention that even if you intend to sell CloD you won't be able to afford a decent gaming platform with that alone. What you actually would have to do is throw away that thing and get a computer that's actually able to play at least Lemmings or some other DOS game in full hd...
At least that would eventually fix a couple of the issues you have with CloD. :-P

How Come FSX is OK, Skyrim is OK & many other TOP Games runs pretty well on this Laptop. It's NOT FPS I have a problem with, it's buggy, unfinished features & Launcher.exe crashes that are doing my head in!!

Because FSX is not up to date anymore graphics wiese and Skyrim was optimzed for Consoles, that is 8 year old hardware. Both games pose no comparison to CoD.

Frankly, I am amazed that CLoD with maxed out settings runs as smooth as it does on my machine. I had much greater problems with IL2 when it came out.

I agree to the Launcher crashes, however, those have to go. IL2 was rock stable, wished that was the case for CloD
