Damn, I never bought anything via MS points and don't want 490 points floating around, and I really don't like giving out my credit card info just for one purchase. Damn! xD

So tempting, but I'd rather have a disk. These modern games take forever to download.

I found it after reading these comments - I still find it annoying that I had more problems getting a game from a major company to run then with the games I got from GoG....

Thanks Escapist!
My girl's been wanting this game, and today's our anniversary.
I get to be the good guy on the cheap for once. :)

So I tried installing it and it asked for a authentication code which I never got... anyone else have this problem?
go to your downloads tab on the client, double click on the game, click on the game keys arrow it should be there.
This happened to me and all it says is No key assigned...

To anyone else here that bought it, could you help me out?
The game downloaded and installed fine, and I am able to play Warchiefs and Asian Dynasties just fine, however, when I try to run the normal AoE3 it comes up with the message that I need to insert disk one...what the hell?

Oh! And MS is screwing things up since it appears there is a problem with Games for Windows Live that for some reason causes a considerable portion of the people who bought the game to get a copy of the game without any CD-key assigned to it thus preventing them from being able to install it. My friends is one of those people, so he can't use the game........

Real good job there Microsoft, real good job.

EDIT: It appears others have already pointed this out.
yeah it's dildos

I just played the game a bit, and despite finding AoE 2 a lot of fun I find AoE 3 fairly boring. It if weren't for the fact that I almost got it for free I would be unhappy.

Steam does that too. When they dont have enough cdkeys. Then you can wait for a week before you'll get your key and you finally can play.

Sweet the 3 copies I bought myself and friends weren't assigned keys, and 3 more of my friends didn't get any either. AWESOME.

Also, it won't let me log in to their Games for Windows forum, AND I've been on hold for phone support for 56 minutes now!

The most painful 10 cents I've ever spent.

But don't worry, they're investigating the issue. :rolls eyes:
