Nice, just got me Bad Company 2

Been a while since I played this.

 

[MormaPope]

Guys, which is better? Mirrors Edge DLC or the Saboteur?

 

[AlexBasch]

How? I'm stuck with the "Payment authorization failed" thing. Not that I'm too bothered, but still, I wouldn't mind a free game.

Used ClearlyDrunk and it worked, except I'm getting 404's when I try to add any game to the basket. :/

Saboteur

DLC doesnt add much unless you love runs and the like

 

[benjipwns]

EA might of seen the traffic and were so excited that Origin was getting the same amount of activity as Steam that they don't care if people are getting their products for free.

"Gentleman, for a few hours late last night we set an all-time transaction record, our games were flying off the shelf! At this rate will surpass Steam within weeks!"

*someone whispers in his ear*

 

[vazel]

The code isn't working for me anymore on alt accounts.

Edit: nvm it's working.

 

[Nimajneb]

Were you guys able to use the coupon multiple times with the same account? I was just able to do use it twice with different accounts in different browsers...but I really don't want to have a ton of different origin accounts

I got it to work twice on one account, but it only worked once on my other account.

Damn that's hilarious, got a great laugh out of this post.

Haha.

 

[Outlaw Torn]

Anyone else not getting an email? Its been over a hour for me.

 

[Boss Doggie]

So how do I use the code? I mean, where do I input it?

Also I just realized that my Origin uses Singapore dollars

Cheers, I'll give it a shot.

 

[Nimajneb]

In the shopping cart.

 

[MormaPope]

So how do I use the code? I mean, where do I input it?

When you add an item to your cart you go to a new screen, you have the option to continue shopping and there will be a box for the promo code when you need to use it on that screen.

 

[FO-totality]

So how do I use the code? I mean, where do I input it?

In your shopping cart in the "apply code" section at the bottom

 

[ChimpBottle]

I could only download 8 games before it stopped working.

My life is terrible!

 

[vazel]

Anyone else not getting an email? Its been over a hour for me.

Same for me. It's been over an hour and the games haven't shown up in my alt account yet. I'm going to try one last time with another alt.

I got Dragon Age 2

Good night, GAF.

 

[01DragonFly]

>.< now is down

 

[hateradio]

That sucks. I tried getting Bulletstorm, I guess I won't get the email.

Good night, GAF.

You guys ruined it for the rest of us!

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Maybe they ran out of codes! :lol

 

[Boss Doggie]

Lame, my Origin apparently is tied to Singapore :/

Even if my region in Steam is different, at least I can use USD and US-related promos.

 

[dragonlife]

Screw everyone that got more games than me.

 

[Shai-Tan]

I was excited until I realized I played all those games or already own them on Steam.

 

[sp3000]

Yep.

 

[Codeblue]

Screw everyone that got more games than me.

How many did you get?

 

[wilflare]

I managed to still get... one game though.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Actually Crysis was added just a few minutes ago.

YMMV: it's a massive hit and miss scenario.

 

[xenoflux2113]

Well the slickdeals prices were gone but I was able to grab Dragon Age 2

 

[Tiny415]

Man the Burnout Ultimate Box is such a scam.

All they did was put in the free updates.

Doesn't it include Big Surf Island and the other premium DLC, in addition to the free DLC? The website seems to indicate so, but maybe it is wrong?

 

[Cramoss]

Why do I get the feeling I'll wake up tomorrow with no games on my account... ?

Oh well..

 

[BoosterDuck]

):

 

[FO-totality]

add me on origin: eggsandsteak

could use some people on my friends list.

sent you a request

Big Surf Island never came to PC that I'm aware of.

 

[kami_sama]

Still nothing

 

[01DragonFly]

the deal is dead for me now shows the value of every game >.<

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

):

I heard that's the worst thing that can ever happen to someone.

 

[KScorp]

Seems the code was repaired. Only applies to the most expensive game in your cart, and you can't apply it twice.

 

[PAULINK]

Still nothing

same here. Either they need to get more keys or they nipped this in the butt.

 

[vazel]

Lame, they took away Mirror's Edge + DLC. So far I'm getting to keep the other three games I got for free.

 

[Tevos]

Has anyone got the Sims 3 to work with this?

Whenever I do it just doesn't change the price.

 

[Enco]

Doesn't work in the uk eh.

Not surprising. Thanks EA.

It begins?

 

[vazel]

It begins?

My Mirror's Edge order was the only one that showed me this: "Thank you for your order. Your order is being processed and you will be notified of the result shortly."

So I'd say anyone that got that message maybe has to worry.

 

[Tevos]

I can no longer use private browsing/another browser to do another code. After I log in (after checking out) it tries to charge me.

 

[Canis lupus]

Awesome for American gamers...

 

[MormaPope]

My Mirror's Edge order was the only one that showed me this: "Thank you for your order. Your order is being processed and you will be notified of the result shortly."

So I'd say anyone that got that message maybe has to worry.

Yup, tried to get another game on the other account but I got that same message.

Clarification: if your order was sent and you got an email, chances are you'll still have your games as we speak.

Yeah, I got 3 to go through before that using different browsers and they all are in Origin. The last one I tried (Bulletstorm) came up with that message and its not in My Games in Origin.

 

[vazel]

Yea, I didn't get an email. It did show up in my games list in the client but it's not there anymore.

So it looks like if you got an email you're safe. Oh well, I made out with three games, I'm happy.

 

[EscapingJail]

Thanks brohans

Glad I got in before it died.
