Offer open to UK/EU residents only aged over 16. The key will be available and useable 4 March 2016 until 31 March 2016.

Edit: codes are being emailed, but some people are having problems. "Invalid taxcode reference key 5 for subsidiary 4". No solution as of yet

Edit2: Using tunnlebear worked for me. Up to you if you want to use a vpn.

yes i have, i have.

i installed tunnelbear, connected to a server put it on and everything went to shit, i work on a desktop that is connected to internet via wifi, now i am on another machine that is workinb via ethernet, and wifi is working great on my phone so the router nor the modem are the problem, being that this happend right after i installed tunnel bear i asume this is the problem...
i've tried
sfc / scannow
netsh int ip reset reset.txt
netsh winsock reset
netsh advfirewall reset
no luck whatsover with any of them
i obviously already tried uninstalling tunnelbear, i even deleted every entry that i find for it on regedit, tried installing it again and i am out of ideas

i just copied what i posted on reddit and to the support

netsh winsock reset catalog

For future reference if you only need it for occasional use just use the browser extension rather than the desktop application

no vpn needed to submit your email, but needed to get to right store checkout.
freeukvpn
simple, 75 seconds then bam, yer there, no file to install, no screwing nuthin up.
the taxcode problem comes when whatever you did, you still ended up in the na1 or other non uk store.

I do think they mean the key. If you activate it, they won't be yanking the game from your library.

When you do, tell me if you can activate it on steam and it's not region locked.

UK isn't a country that creates region locked keys, iirc.

Comment has been collapsed.

No, but my guess was that they may be locked to Europe only, tho. The whole point of using a VPN is to try to grab a key while not being european, right?

There are no region specific versions of this game, so all cd-keys should redeem worldwide.
Take for example this, There is an specific ID for japan, so there are cd-keys only redeemable in japan.

But if I try to buy it on steam, it says it can only be activated by others if they are in the same region as me.
