Hi and Welcome Aboard!

Part of the problem with a service like Kinguin is that you don't know where the keys come from. The other part is that with a game from UBIsoft the key is only good once. If you buy a second-hand UBI game it almost certainly won't work. After reading your post I looked up Kinguin and they seem pretty shady to me. I wouldn't by anything from them. Also you might try contacting UBI directly to see if they might work something out.

SH5 is still pretty cheap from a lot of legitimate services, and is even available on Steam now. I'm not a big fan of Steam, but that's just me. If nobody else has it then they are a good way to go, and they have sales all the time when you get stuff really cheap.

Others will be along who can probably help more. However it works out, I hope you get many years of fun play with SH5.

Well, the key from Kinguin let me Dload directly from U-Play onto my computer.

well actually not yet...want to install Twos but do not have a Mod folder ? should the mod just be installed over the reg. SH5 data ? as installed in the SH5 and it will add/over write files as needed ?

This is so unclear..kind of like an early war TP....hit or miss

As long as your SH5 is version 1.2 then just install TWoS. It will install the mod folder automatically.
