Quake 4 code?

[Santilli]

Hi
I've got a legally purchased copy of Quake 4, DVD version. Somehow, the dam code sticker fell out of the box, and, I can't find the code.

I emailed Raven, and, here is their REALLY lame response:

Hello. Thank you for contacting us here at Activision customer support.

Unfortunately we cannot replace your stolen or lost key, as we do not have any keys to give out. The keys are placed in the packaging at the manufacturing plant.

Thank you.

Hi
I have a Quake 4, DVD Edition Deluxe.
I don't get much time for games, so, I played it through, and, then my hardrives crashed.

I rebuilt my system, went to install it, and found the sticker with the code has some how fallen out of the case. I bought this product, and, would like to play it. I'll send you Photoshop scans of the disk, and the case, witnessed by a notary, if neccessary(yes, I have a Juris Doctrate degree in law, and I know a notary that is both an attorney and notary. We went to law school together.)

PLEASE send me a code so I can play this game.

Thank you.

Sincerely

Gregory Santilli

Anyone have a Quake 4 code I can use?

I won't say Never again, but....

 

[ddrueding]

Sorry, never bought it.

 

[CougTek]

There used to be a web site with links to code generators/hacks/activators that was named by a phrase popularized in Terminator 2...

 

[Stereodude]

It sounds to me like they want you visit the barbary coast so you can play it.

 

[Santilli]

Hi
Thanks all, but PM me with some better hints. Yes, with you guys I will accept I'm a cat in abowling alley.

Today I got an email I lost a job to some lady that is supposed to be
"a computer genius" and, doesn't even have a doctrate degree, and, she's leading a 'law academy'.

My tempers short, and, I'd like to kill something...like in Quake 4...

 

[Santilli]

Thanks for the help folks. Got it running, and, no problems, other then being slightly lame...

Pretty stunning graphics on the new screen and card, even if it won't run Ultra. Also seems plenty snappy, though it uses 1.0 gig of ram...

 

[MaxBurn]

This is a legit use of cracks in my opinion. No CD patches are nice too. You know you are right but there is no way you will convince them of that.

 

[Santilli]

I paid them money, and they have their little contract, for using the darn thing on one computer. Somewhere in there, they may run afoul of implied warranty, when a key component is a little sticker that easily falls out of the plastic case it's put in. I will say it's a fun game...
