I bought 2 copies of dungeon lords collectors edition from walmart.
both of cd keys are unknown and i can't play on gamespy.
I don't appreciate getting ripped off by being given a peice of trash cd key.
If it says I can play on gamespy on the box, I should be able to play on gamespy. I don't see why I should go through all that trouble to get a replacement cd key when I should have gotten 2 working ones in the first place.
maybe the box should say "there is a high chance that the cd key is bullshit, and you wont be able to join the gamespy lobby". I bet the box would change before my cd keys I paid for will ever work.

I too baught DL-CE at Wal-Mart in the 9.99 bin not a few days ago. I am already sick of the "enrand boy" game play. i have played RPG before KOTOR, WOW, Baulders gate. so i did know what i was getting into But before sheving it i decided to try the multiplayer option. Only to find out my CD keys do not work, so the whole shipment to wal mart must have been illiegal along with some of the jewelry and half of their help over the age of 16 and over the age of 500. Yell INS in a wal- mart see what fun it casues. Ok done ranting, so it seems i am not the only one with this problem ..intresting !!!!

Yeah, I beat the game... dominated it actually. I want to at least team up with some real people... same CD Key generic BS you all have. Is there any way to get around this BS? :mad:

holy hell was there one to begin with? this game I really should of looked into before buying if so much is glicked and not working...they really should of put a warring on this game "warring, this games cd key was made up by monkeys so don't think it will work for anything orther then a very small peice of toilet paper" (mine you that would cover alot of the case if you got that smaller cd sized case like me)

Despite the issues reported about DL, I like the game overall...
I have only played THROUGH Fargrove so far (Solo), but want to try multi-player. I'm an old hand at RPG - Started with D&D in the 1970's... and I'm a network engineer for work, so I'm going to try to make a DEDICATED Dungeon lords server, that will run on it's own system. I had no trouble running DL/CE on a dual 866MHZ PIII system with FX5700 Nvidia. I have not had any major issues with the CE version. - BUT I run a *VERY* stripped Win2K OS that only reuires 60MB ram to boot in, so my other 2.6GHZ system blows most new computers away for playable game speed. I suggest most people make a dual boot system with 2 O/S installs - 1 for "stuff" and 1 for games. That way you can minimize the amount of junk running in Memory.
*ALSO* HUGE improvement to run 2 hard drives- and partition them. you can gain 40-150% HDD access increase by having Windows on one drive and Games on another. The smaller the drive paritions, the faster the game will run. (Applies mainly to the first partition you make)
I have 1 "REAL" copy and 3 I bought at walmart last week for $9 to use as LAN keys. I'm going to try one of them to see if the code is good or not.
I have a UT2004 server now, so I am familiar with hosting games. I'll let you know what success I have with the "dedicated server" idea. Let me know if any are interested in this project...??
