  • Spartan900, on 10/18/2007, -0/+0Why does a game on Steam need copy protection anyway?
  • rhadiquool, on 10/17/2007, -1/+1After whinging enough I had it reset, however it still remains, why is there no system in place for Steam users, and why did I have to go to such lengths to have it reset.
  • rhadiquool, on 10/17/2007, -1/+1I've also taken this up again on the 2K support forum's, which they will most likely close and bury, here's the link to that

  • IanKrAzE, on 10/17/2007, -2/+0They plan on removing the activation in the future, so unless you plan on reinstalling the game tons between now and then, you should be fine.
