Spore Key Help
 
Hello everyone! :3

i got spore a couple of days ago and I've had to do some reinstalls because of problems. Now, I'm using the same computer to install the game (I've reinstalled it twice so far) and I was just wondering if there was any key limit on the same computer.

I've heard that it's only about 3 or 5 times you can install it on a different computer, but I'm just wondering if this still applies if you're installing it on the 1 computer.

Thanksyou! :)

As far as I am aware, the keys total amount of times to be used, is decreased by one every time it is activated I think.

Did you physically buy it or was it from Steam? Either way, if you do have any problems, contact their helpline.

I physically bought it, from EB Games, not from Steam.

So my question remains;

can you use the same key on the same computer as many times as you'd like?

I did a bit of googling for you and the answer is 5 times.
You can only use the key 5 times if you regster it.

Hope this helps.

You can, however, call EA technical support to have them help you get some of those keys back, but only if you register the game with EA before calling in, iirc.

Thankyou.

After talking on the EA Chat support today the person I was speaking to told me that I could contact them and they could extend the amount of times, free of charge.
