gogamer - Il-2 on the way!

[Jumo211]

Here is exactly what I did :

Selected " allow all " for my personal firewall software to make sure there is
no connection issue during install .
I did not used Windows CD/DVD autoplay option when popping disc in to drive
but opened manually disc files ( not that much difference anyway ) , then
clicked on Steam " Setup " shortcut and that did bring a small CloD install window ,
then clicked on install CloD option and Steam started to install ( I did not have
Steam installed at all up to that point ) .
The next thing it asked me shortly after if I want to use existing account or creating
a new one and since I forgot my previous login name and password from a
long time ago I selected to create a new account .
After entering all the necessary required stuff I clicked to proceed but was
returned back to previous install progress window telling me my account
e-mail address is already registered Ooops ! I registered about 7 years ago but did
not really used Steam at all
So I just selected creating a new account option again using a different
e-mail address with user name and then got through installing Steam without
a hitch which right after it was installed asking me for the CloD key number
which I typed exactly as it is on the included piece of paper inside the box
XXXXX-XXXXX-yada yada yada.......and after two seconds it was success giving
me finally option to start installing CloD .
That's it , a little hiccup with creating a new Steam account but success .
I must have been lucky after reading recent posts , I thought I will meet the
same fate but it worked .
So far the game experience is now for me the biggest shock

Where did you get your game from? I spoke to the guy from GoGamer on the phone a few minutes ago. Sounded like everyone who got the game from him has the same problem I have. They are contacting the manufacturer in Australia looking for an answer. Hopefully they will supply us with new keys tomorrow. If you got your game from Gogamer it just seems odd that you are the only one that had a working key. Makes me wonder if we all had the same key and you were just the first one to install it. When did you install?

I got it already on Monday and installed yesterday

It's from Gogamer via Amazon , the very same " Manufactured in Australia " version:

Guess you got are a lucky one. Gogamer said that they had gotten emails back from most of the people who bought from them. I will be emailed tomorrow if they have a new key for me or if he will just refund my money. Hopefully I will get a key that works.

My response from GoGamer:


Robert,
We do apologize for the inconvenience regarding this duplicate cd key for this new release game Il 2 Cliffs of Dover. This seems to be a big problem as many customers are saying the cd keys are duplicated. We are working through email with the manufacturer for solutions on this issue and we will let you know what solution they forward to us. This could be a problem with STEAM as this game releases next week and that could be why the cd key is not going through.



Thank you

Steam contacted me and got me going. Yeah, just installed the game and I am getting an update. Once the updating is done I will give it a try. Going to be a late night,

Thanks for the post. I have the same problem as you. How did Steam contact you and what did they do to get you running?
