How does e-license work?

[thealmighty]

I do not own a credit card, so I have to have someone else get the game for me.

Question is, does the license come via e-mail to the computer you order on, or to e-mail address, and is it a license # to use anywhere, or does it go on that computer you order from??

(I got TCY on CD and never played pro FOF, if you are wondering how I can be so stupid)

Go to ViaTech and order the game from the store (there's a link to it on Jim's site). Input the person's CC number and information to buy the game. They will give you an Order ID.

Download and install the game on the computer you want it on (Must have internet access. If not, there is an option to do a non-internet access. I never did it.) When you run the game the first time, a message pops up. Click on the LICENSE button. Input the Order-ID and the game will not be licensed and ready to go.

I'm guessing he meant... will NOW be licensed

To answer your 1st question, the license is emailed to an email adress you input when you order. So basically, just input your email adress and you will receive the order number, not the guy ordering for you.

I'm starting to lose faith that this guy is who he claims to be.

Well, no, not really. I don't suppose God 's got a credit card...
