Digital download... where is the cd key?

Where can i find the cd key

from Sins Forums

Aright I was about to play multiplayer sins and it asked for a cd key to make an ironclad account. I digitally downloaded this game and im not sure were it is.

Do i even need an ironclad account to play multiplayer? Cuz i tried clicking on multi player but all it gave me was LAN games....

It is in the email you received from the store at purchase, or you can recover it by entering your email address at the support site.

You do indeed need an ICO account to play online. As you've seen, the plain "Multiplayer" option is for local network play.

The Multiplayer button in the game takes you to LAN play online. You need to click the Ironclad Online button, then create an acocunt for it, to play over the Internet.

The CD Key it asks for will be the serial number that was sent to you via email when you ordered the game. If you do not have it, you can retrieve your serial number(s) here.

The serial number also gives you the ability to download the patches, which you will need to connect to Ironclad Online. Current version is 1.05.

Above in my first sentence I meant to say "LAN play only". But Kryo beat me to the punch. Forums seem a bit slow to update today.

Different databases :P You get patches through Stardock, and log in through Ironclad. Both are separate, so they both need a registered key ;)
