Crysis in a Cyber Cafe?!

krazyjakee · 31-01-2008, 04:49 PM

How can I get a commercial exploitation license for EA games, i've been put through loads of call centres across the UK but nobody will help.

Can anyone tell me who I should get in contact with? I want my customers to enjoy this game as much as I have!

Hi krazyjakee and welcome to the forums

I am presuming that you are asking about multiple licences here and I don't have an answer right now but I shall see if I can get one for you.

Aww thanks man

I'll keep my eye out.

Can't you just use the licence of a typical copy and install it in every PC?

I am sorry it took me a while to get back to you.

Unfortunately it looks like we are unable to point you in the right direction for this kind of thing, though.

I don't mean that he buys an individual licence for every PC. I mean buy a single $50 copy of the game and use it to install the game in every PC

Technically, you should only have a game installed on one pc per disk bought.

this does not go for all games tho

there are alot of games that run a log in screen and such u can allow multiple players to use 1 single disc set

test drive unlimited; guild wars; WOW to name a few that use this kind of system.

normally its buy a disc play it with license code included and register it usually for goodies for that game.
the registration defines ur license code to u personally.

this might be a solution to the problem

buy multiple copies of the game to cover the amount of pc's u want to run the game on.
games that work with profiles can allow multiple players to play a game without beeing in violation of the eula since its afaik not forbidden to allow other ppl to play games on ur comp?

eula is to technical english for me so if im wrong wel soz then

just an idea that came to live in my mind

Hello EAUK_Aurora.
Now things are getting desperate and i am nearing the opening date of my cafe, is it possible you could take a second look into commercial exploitation licenses for any of EA's more recent games?

EAUK_Aurora · 20-04-2008, 04:12 PM

Hi krazyjakee.

When I last asked about this, I was told that there was nothing of this type in place.

I am going to include this information in a report so that it is made aware of. I am sorry that I can not help more at this point. I hope that your cafe opening is a big success

krazyjakee · 13-05-2008, 01:10 PM

can I buy 4 copies of the game and install them?
Will I be breaking the EULA?

Is anybody ever going to check if you have licence for every piece of software you have installed? If no, then just install the thing. In my country nobody cares about things like that, but I don't know whats the case in UK.
