Did you buy the game second hand or downloaded illegally?

# 13 · 22 Mar 2008 at 16:02

bought from tesco's and it was in its plastic wrapper

OK, well the server thinks some one has your cd key, but i dont understand how as yours is brand new.

Sometimes happens when you get disconnected from a server, you just have to wait abit for the server to drop your client.

The only thing I can think of is that you've been unlucky and somebody who downloaded the game illegally and used a keygen has come up with your CD key and is using it. If that's what's happened there's not much you can do except make your case to Activision via their support.
