FEAR Disks broke... mom put them through wash. Anybody know where to get new disks?

[W2hCYK]

My mom put my pants through the wash with my FEAR disk set in them(in cd case). Soap got in, dried, scratched the disks, cant use them, even if i try to use scratch remover.

I have the CD key, im wondering if its possible to order a new CD set from sierra, or wherever i need to, but without the key code, as I already have one.

didnt get the serial illegally, bought it from newegg last year for $40, and bought one for a friend for xmas as well, but he lost the disks, lol...

help!

you should be able to get the game online from someone you know and use your cdkey...all legal too..as long as you use your cdkey...also if you want this game to play online, sierra offers it for free...just goto the fear website and dl it...

you can order a replacement disk from the manufature, i think it cost around 5-10 bucks.

 

[W2hCYK]

do you know if I could e-mail them or what the # for sierra is? cant seem to find one.

thats what i have found...

 

[W2hCYK]

Dont have the disks actually. I tossed em because they were so badly damaged(imagine sandpaper) so yea, now what can I do?

Would redownloading the disks be legal? as I do have a legally obtained cd key

or am I stuck?

 

[ktr]

buy a new set and sell off the key...

depends on their terms of service....however if Bill Gates will let you use any windows xp disk just your org. key, i would think they would too....good luck man...that sucks when crap like that happens

copywrite has a lot of loop holes.

it states that you can make you OWN backup for personal purpose, but CANNOT obtain a backup that is not yours.

i dont think that is clear enough tho....sure you can make a back up of discs and cdkey, but you cant use someone elses cdkey...the software is all the same....his disc or not..same software, its the key that cant be passed around...

I'll just ask the question i think needs to be asked...

ANYONE HAVE A COPY OF THE GAME WITHOUT A CDKEY THAT HE CAN HAVE?? POST IT HERE!!!

i would but i only have the full multiplayer free version....

 

[Alcpone]

Just download it and use your original key! Gee I wont tell anyone if you dont! lol

 

[ktr]

easier is just to borrow the game, make a clonecd image, and mount the daemon.

 

[W2hCYK]

none of my friends have it besides my friend who also lost the discs.. lol..

I may re download, or contact them with my situation, so I can see whats going on.

And yes, thanks for posting that, if anybody has copies of the game, all 5 disks, lemme know, Ill pay $10, like from the manufacturer.

You could always try toothpaste.

 

[W2hCYK]

tried, expensive stuff, cheap stuff, actual scratch remover, deep scratch remover.. nada.. 2 of the discs had the foil scratched, so they were done in anyway.

Read the PM I sent you.

If you don’t mind having the DVD version, Pm me we can probably fix something up. I use the DVD version of bf2 to install the game and then I run it off the original cd, faster to put in one disk then to put 3 in . So I don’t see why it wouldn’t run off yours.

Ps, I would have to send you either a ISO or a RAR that I would create of the image, so either you have a fast connection ( there would be a small handling fee, damn upload isn’t cheap where I live) or you get it off a torrent site. It’s all legal if you have the retail copy at home, that’s the only reason why these places still exist. By the way, downloading copyrighted stuff in Canada is almost legal we call it ''sharing''.

Its legal because they are not hosting the file only a link.
