For anyone that doesn't have all the expansions or add-ons, the collection with all 3 add-ons is on sale on Steam for just today, for $7.50, so (|Fast Cast|) if you want to get it :p

PS: Buying through steam doesn't affect anything, you can even continue to use Windower, you're not forced to open it through steam itself all the time like most other games.

Oh thats nice...I may just do it, for the 3 mini-expansions...very nice deal! You should be able to apply this code to your existing account to unlock just the 3 mini-expansions...I hope.

what's wrong with steam? lol

Like I said though, once you install it through steam you can use it without going through steam at all, so if it's the usage that you don't like you can avoid that. If it's just steam you don't like, then no sale for you! Onigiri Dancing

Steam has screwed me over in the past and the program itself is annoying.

I see :o yeah I've heard some horror stories about steam before, biggest issue I've had is pre-orders not coming out on time. I started using it extensively last year as a cheaper method of getting games without the hassle of trying to find them in a store ^^b

So where do I find the CD-Key at, once you purchase the game?

EDIT: Nevermind, I found it....they sure like to hide this "important" stuff...

EDIT II: And I now have all 3 Scenarios, even though I may never get to them soon, $7.50 is a very good deal. Hopefully we can all work on them eventually!

Just got it myself. Was super easy and cheap ^^

Just click to install through STEAM then pause it. Right click - View CD key.

And register it. :D No need to install all over again.

I love Steam, in fact I only buy games trough Steam so I got all my games with me wherever and whenever! Without ever having to worry about the disks! :)

How do you register the all-in-one key to an existing account to get all the goodies?

Add Content ID section of POL!

I've tried that but it asks me to register a specific product, rather than the all-in-one Ultimate key.

If I use the key in any one of those, does it activate all of them?

There is only 1 series of boxes to enter keys anymore, so yes!

I don't see the series of boxes...I see a little menu where you check the item you want to register...

It seems a moot point though, I can't update or play FF11.

yeah, click that and it'll ask for a key!

Yeah, I can't update the game for some reason...and can't play. So I'm just sitting on wasted game time right now. :/

I just did this the other day to activate all of the new expansions. You just have to use your key for one and then it will ask you if you would like to register all of the other expansions at the same time.

Yeah, but what I meant is that for some reason every time I try to update FF11 it gives me a connection error...POL-1158 to be specific.

Did you try to contact a GM to see what the problem is? If you can't figure it out it's better than wasting precious game time! And if they can't help you ask for your money back lol

I tried looking it up, but there's nothing about that error code! Try turning off any firewalls or antivirus scanners and see if that helps.

Well as it turns out, I need a specific version for windows Vista, and Steam does not provide it...

So I need to figure out how to install the expansion packs and the add-ons now.
