I've just bought RoF too. And I can't use the sodding thing!! . I went through the lengthy install process, including the download of a huge patch. Then the registration process . Thought that I would get an activation link via email by way of an auto-response. Nope. I've now been waiting all morning and no sign. Can't even get onto the RoF forums as it will not let me in. Mightily pissed right now

Undecided for a while now! due to the ''DHD'' dial home device, So i gave the demo a run, bit of a chew on to get activated and so on, pretty decent game but i have decided its not for me. It'll end up like so many other games i've got and theres a few... unopened..on the shelf,so im gonna pass on this one.

Mine runs absolutely fine then has around 10 seconds of really bad lag, then another 40 seconds of fine gameplay, then ten seconds of bad lag....

Absolutely irritating so i'm leaving it well alone til the next patch.

How does it "not let you in"? You don't need a registered copy of the game to use the forums. (I am a moderator there). Don't fuss with any activation via email. Just log into the forums, click on the word "Profile" near the top right. There will be a box for your CD key. Enter it. Log into game with same email / password as forum. Done.

Highbury..... waaaaaaaaay off topic of the thread, but I noticed your Vancouver coin there on the screen. I just got back from doing the tours on both the Protecteur, then boat hopping and re-deploying again on the 'Peg. Dad was on the commissioning crew for the Van many moons ago.
What trade are ya?

No worries, if you decide to D/L the demo, pay attention to the screen resolution and dont do what i did i was sitting waiting patiently for the bloody game to do something ie: sitting in the hanger watching a plane going round and round trying to figure out where and what options were available,then it dawned on me the freaking game was set at the wrong res. all the controls were hidden
