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.

    • You've tried DuckDuckGo and Brave Search, now get serious with SearXNG

      I was using searxng for about a year , self hosted, but results were starting to timeout and eventually it became unusable so I switched to degoog. Much better for my needs, more polished and add-ons like maps and calculations etc

    • Laptop Processor Question

      By goretsky · Posted

      Hello, I am not as familiar with AMD CPUs as I am with Intel's, but as I understand it, that's a mid-range CPU from about three years ago.  I would think it to be fine for everyday casual-type use.  A larger SSD might be better, but with storage prices these days that's a decision that has to be carefully thought about. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky

    • Ocenaudio 3.19.5

      By Copernic · Posted

      Ocenaudio 3.19.5 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display. Ocenaudio 3.19.5 changelog: Fixes crashes related to audio devices on Windows (DirectSound and ASIO) Fixes several crashes and memory corruption issues Fixes opening several headerless files at once, which previously dropped all but one Improves batch export by suggesting and remembering the destination folder Fixes accented and non-Latin characters in VST plug-in and compressed-archive file names Adds zstd compression support and updates the archive library Other bug fixes and improvements Download: Ocenaudio 64-bit | Portable | ~40.0 MB (Freeware) Download: Ocenaudio for Linux and Mac OS View: Ocenaudio Homepage | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
