Company of Heroes: ToV Missing CD Keys in Canada

"Certain retailers in Canada received Company of Heroes: Tales of Valor copies affected by incomplete manuals, resulting in the lack of a cd-key," THQ has admitted.

Those affected will need to send the publisher a picture of the manual's back page, showing the blank spot where the key should be, along with a copy of their sales receipt. After a support claim is filed with that info, THQ will dispatch the code via e-mail.

Developed by Relic, the latest game in the WWII PC strategy series arrived this week. "Our apologies for the inconvenience; we look forward to expeditiously resolving this for you, and getting you up and running," added THQ. Thanks to manlyman for the tip.

Take the friends manual, take a photo, photoshop a receipt, send in, profit.

That I would have to do all this to get a CDKEY, serves them right if someone does the above.

See, I know this shit happens (a number of Witcher copies in Canada went out without keys)... but really, THQ? YOu're making people send you pictures and submit a big support ticket? To play a game they paid for? That is WEAK.

This happened for me on a PC game a few years ago, I just forgot which one. It may have been Battlefield 2.
