steam far cry 3


Recommended Posts

Far Cry 3 is available worldwide. You shouldn't have any issues finding it on the European store. I just checked and it was made available on Steam on 29th November.

not available in uk yet... http://store.steampowered.com/search/?snr=1_4_4__12&term=far+cry+

The Steam store automatically redirects me to the European site regardless of the link, and the site tells me that I can buy it for 50 euros, and have had the ability to do so since 29th November. I wonder why you guys have to wait another couple of days...weird.

im not sure intrinsica. probably some dispute between UBI uk and Steam uk no doubt! which is abscure, since i really want to buy it! but am unable.... this just encourages piracy. as i'll be honest, im very tempted to torrent it now since i just want to play it now.... I wont though. but tempted! Grrr

Ah, having just gone and checked it looks like it'll be released in the UK on December 4th. The developers wanted to make some last-minute changes before releasing it.

So you only have to wait 2 days! Even if I bought it today I wouldn't be able to play it until sometime next week, so count yourself lucky! :p

I'm from the UK and I bought it from here: GameKeys4U.net

It activates on Steam and it's playable now, so there's no waiting for the North America release. The website sounds dodgy but it checks out on TrustPilot and both my brother and I bought Far Cry 3 from there, so I'm happy to recommend it. The process wasn't instant but I received the key within 10hrs; my brother received his within an hour. As always, if you don't feel comfortable with the website then don't use it.

It's annoying that Ubisoft messed about with the UK Steam release again, just like it did with Far Cry 2.

Unfortunately, Ubisoft can't put their latest games on the UK store in Steam due to a contract they have with a UK retailer which prevents them. (source: http://forums.ubi.co...121#post8749121)

Assassin's Creed 3 is the same. :)

It seems to just gift it from another region and international gifting is allowed by Steam's User Agreement. It's not a region restricted copy - for instance, Russian versions are usually restricted due to their lower prices - and it's all on the up-and-up.

So yes, it's legitimate if that's what you're asking. I came across the website on the Steam forums, so if it was a dodgy website I would have expected the link to be blocked.

I actually got a free copy with my graphics card, if anyone wants the serial I can give it for free. I have never used it. Not sure if the download link can be shared but will check.

Dirt Showdown was ment to come with my new graphics card, serial didn't work and ebuyer refused to give me a new one.

******s!

if its a steam code then you can always contact steam. You will have to send them a picture of the card with the serial and they should give you a new one.

and yep the link can be shared, but its only active for 30 days so after that you wont be able to download the game.

To be honest, I didn't try the code because it never came with one. I don't know why I said that. When I brought it, Ebuyer's website said it came with a free copy of Dirt Showdown and when I received it, it's also printed on the box that it included a code for it... but was missing.

Sods law, and unhelpful Ebuyer wont be getting my business anytime soon.

If that's true, that's ****ing bull****. I hated GAME long before they ran out of money, crap like that wouldn't surprise me honestly. :angry:

dont know if the activate on steam but...

pre order here: http://www.gamersgat...q=far%20cry%203

It doesn't, otherwise it would say so under the DRM section. If you're going to buy it without Steam you're better off using the 30% discount code for GreenManGaming.

    • A different thing with Russia. When you say is it better, depends on things. It is better that we don't have the E.U making rules and laws that have nothing to do with them. Is the trading part better? No, that is really mucked up, but then we knew that was going to happen and we would have make agreements, like we do with other parts of the world. Freedom of movement is certainly better, but could be improved, we still need more control over our borders. do you live in the U.K?
    • So what am I quoting from them? I never listened to what Farage or his cronies said. I wanted the U.K to leave the E.u years before the referendum and it had nothing to do with Farage and his cronies. So what country do you live in? Did we work much better together? We were always at logger heads with the E.U because we disagreed with them so much. Maggie was always on at them. I would have thought the E.U was glad to get rid of us as we stopped the integration or made it a two tier. Now without us they can integrate more. I would not have voted out if it was just a trading block and we can still work together on somethings.

    • Apple reportedly looks to blacklisted Chinese memory chips as RAM prices climb by Karthik Mudaliar Image via Apple Apple is reportedly trying to get a clearance from the Trump administration to buy memory from ChangXin Memory Technologies (CXMT) to get some relief from soaring DRAM prices. As per a report by the Financial Times, Apple approached the Commerce Department more than a month ago and also spoke to other officials and allies in Washington. For starters, CXMT is a company that's already been placed on the Pentagon's list of Chinese military companies. The Chinese company is the country's top DRAM maker. For Apple, the timing is certainly awkward but not surprising. Tim Cook had recently warned that Apple would have to raise prices because AI companies are buying up large amounts of memory for data centers, and just like that, Apple raised MacBook and iPad prices. Micron also recently revealed that customers have committed billions of dollars to secure memory supply years in advance, which shows us how aggressive securing infrastructure has become. This gives suppliers such as Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron more leverage, while pushing hardware makers to look for alternatives. CXMT is one of those alternatives, but not the simplest one. Apple has spent many years trying to diversify parts of its supply chain away from China, especially for final assembly, while still depending heavily on Chinese manufacturing and suppliers. Even domestic brands from China are moving towards CXMT and YMTC instead of relying on Samsung, Micron, and SK Hynix. For Apple, though, it would invite more scrutiny than local Chinese companies. For now, this is more like a lobbying effort rather than a confirmed supply deal. There's no official statement from either of the parties. What is clearer, though, is the pressure behind such a request. AI demand has certainly made hardware a bottleneck, and companies are trying everything they can to bring things back to normal, even if that means making politically sensitive choices.
