Grid 2

Afraid not, GreenManGaming have a slightly different bundle which includes most but not all of the extras from Steam.

so this unlocks today for US if I'm correct ? wonder how many peeps will take a quick trip over there with their PC

 

[joelk2]

Cool, post impressions whilst we have a chance to cancel

 

[joelk2]

my pc might have a trip to the usa later tonight to gain the unlock.

similar to what people were doing with simcity so im sure im allowed to say that much at least.

It's so stupid having split release dates.

Agreed, its like looking at a fresh doughnut through a glass window

Ah well, I'll just truck on in Metro LL for a couple more days

I'm wondering if the trip to the US will even work tbh, first time I've noticed a game labeled EU when buying it. Would be happy to be proven wrong as got nothing to do though.

well i just looked and found this article

http://onlinegamevpn.blogspot.hu/2013/05/unlock-grid-2-earlier-in-eu-with-usa-vpn.html

i dont know how true it is but its tempting seeing as the only ones that dont have access to the game is us in europe. even the pirates have it.


haha lorre just responded to me saying " I'm turning a blind eye, if you happen to do it when I'm looking the other way that's your choice. "

Contemplating buying this to get the Steam pre-orders but like many I'm a bit put off by the lack of Cockpit view... I've never liked either of the "decapitated head sat on the bonnet" or "magically floating above the track" views so they are a poor substitute...

I actually do quite like the 3rd person behind-car view, but I find it makes the game a lot less challenging. Takes away any need to judge the width of the car and be aware of your surroundings and the other racers. I think it suits a very arcade racer like NFS where you can get through most races by just plowing into the barriers at full speed and scrape your way around every corner, but for something like Grid it worked really well... Is it really something that could be easily modded back in?

Used CJ-s before never had problems.

Sure i will get my key, but obviously other sites have their keys already. Cant see why CJ-s wouldnt.

People really need to understand the difference between grey market key sellers and reputable stores like GMG and simplygames.

They haven't had their delivery of stolen keys yet !!

Greenman, SimplyGames are always competitively priced, I wouldn't reccommend CJS to my worst enemy.

+1.

im going home for lunch to test it out. i know tunnelbear doesnt work but have been told you can unlock it with another vpn (awaiting confirmation of which he used)

 

[~>Dg<~]

give details of which vpn you use cheers.

 

[joelk2]

give details of which vpn you use cheers.

Spotflux is one I've used quite a few times for unlocking games.

If you use the one in the article posted by Dg it will unlock SP but for MP steam needs to be connected so if you connect back on a UK IP after you've unlocked it via VPN, it re-locks.

this will be the case with all the vpn's i think, you need to enable "offline mode" in steam to play it.
