Ubisoft is Revoking Far Cry 4 CD-Keys - briefly
(hx) 08:01 AM CET - Jan,28 2015 - Post a comment / read (4)
Buying CD-keys from third-party re-sellers (IE: anywhere other than Steam/uPlay/Origin or a retail store) always comes with an inherent risk, just as buying anything on eBay. However, once you've paid for the key, had your game client accept it, and are able to boot up the game, you wouldn't really expect for it to be suddenly taken away. Well, if you bought a copy of Far Cry 4 from a re-seller such as G2A or Kinguin (#1, #2), that may be exactly what is about to happen. Ubisoft has released an official statement to Game Informer confirming earlier forum reports of users having their games removed from their libraries. "We regularly deactivate keys that were fraudulently obtained and resold," said the representative, adding "In this case, we are currently investigating the origin of the fraud and will update customers when we have more information to share. In the meantime customers should contact the vendor from whom they purchased their key." G2A, one of the other re-sellers involved in this situation, released the following statement via Facebook:
OFFICIAL STATEMENT ABOUT THE UBISOFT SITUATION

As some of you may already know, steps have been taken to remove games purchased indirectly from a publisher, via main marketplaces in the web. G2A.COM is not in any case responsible for any of these procedures. However, we are well aware of this process and will do everything possible to compensate for that.

For users who have made transactions without G2A Shield, we will check if the corresponding merchant was responsible for the withdrawal of the code. If so, these users will get a compensation. Any user who used G2A Shield affected by the current process will get either a new code for the game or the money back. G2A.COM will make every possible exertion to prevent this kind of procedures in the future and exclude merchants responsible for such incidents from the marketplace.

how could anyone fraudulently obtain a boxed copy of FC3? These sites send you a scanned or photographed key from a box. Does ubisoft seriously thinks that anyone who gets his key revoked is going to go and buy a game from them for more money? o.O

Personally, I would kinda rejoice. I played the game, probably finished it twice by now and now I am going to get my money back. If I ever ever wanted to play it again, I would just pirate it.

It seems like ubisoft is run by people that think they are the only source of water on Earth once they get rid of 3rd party retailers.

Seems to me that they are putting one more nail into their coffin.

Companies are always giving customers new reasons to pirate.
