Somewhat shady question

Post by **Nightshade** » Thu Jun 23, 2005 3:33 pm

My IT guys just got a big shipment of 2.8Ghz P4 Dells, and they agreed to set them up for a LAN tomorrow. One of our nerds is leaving, and it's sort of a geek send-off.
My question is, can I install my copy of BF1942 or BF:V on all of these machines and run a server? All of them having the same CD key is what I'm getting at.

Nope, you gonna have to use a keygen.

i think punkbuster does all the cdkey checking. don't install pb and it should work.

You can use the same key for lan. You just cant play via the internet.

Yep.

At some LAN parties it seems like some people have actually done that cause it takes them two hours to set up and join the game.
