Lost Operation Arrowhead CD key.

Recommended Posts

Ok, so about 2 years ago, I purchased Arma 2 Combined Operations from wal-mart, which included Arma 2 and Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead. Now I got a new computer and when I went to go install both Arma 2 and Operation Arrowhead, I couldn't find the CD key for OA. Now I still have the Arma 2 CD key and the case and everything to prove it is Combined Operations, and that I am not just trying to weasel my way into a free OA CD key. Now, I wouldn't mind this too much however I really wanted to play it with my friends and get the DayZ mod. Also, I purchased the game from Wal-mart so I am not sure if I have to talk to them or not... So anyways, I'm wondering if 1. There's any way to find the old CD key on the computer to something, or 2. If there's any way I could recieve a new key WITHOUT buying a new copy.

1. nope, gata find that code

2. nope, gata buy a new copy

now, you CAN ontact the Develoupers (bohemia interactive) and see if they can help you. So long as you provide the recipt that shows you bought the game. Other than that you are SOL my friend.

Might as well buy OA agian, its like $15 now?

Ok, I assumed I would have to buy it again since I more than likely threw away the receipt... Anyways here's a new question then... Even though I did NOT buy the game on steam, can I buy OA on Steam and DL it and use it with Arma 2? Well, even if I can't, OA is a standalone Expansion anways right?

Wal-Mart Cannot and Will Not Help You. You have to contact Bohemia or their distributor to deal with the issue. But for realz just buy it on steam, it's cheap and soo nice to have it available for the rest of your life.

Yeah, I probably will, Steam will also auto update the game. I just hopeI haven't missed the Steam sale.
