doccarnby: About two months ago I registered my copy of Crysis on Origin, since the disc was scratched. For some reason, even though the disc version worked, the Origin version just would not work. Each .exe gave me a different issue, one just crashed, one told me to insert a disc... I contacted support. Seven hours later I'd restarted my computer several times, uninstalled an re-installed Crysis, uninstalled and re-downloaded the installer and re-installed, ran in compatability modes, as an administrator... they finally told me that they would send the problem to their higher-ups and they would contact me when they had an answer.
I haven't heard back from them.
Sogi-Ya: Crysis is not compatible with Origin, at least not the versions sold through other distributors, even says so here:
https://help.ea.com/article/redeem-your-serial-code-in-origin lots of EA games released before 2008 don't go into the system correctly (for whatever reason, I've got both BF 2142 and Crysis max-pack) but if you contact them directly they will manually add the games to your account: I would check back with them again if you really want to get at the disk free versions, that FAQ was updated 11/20/12 so it's probably more that they forgot to get back to you than that they didn't deal with the issues.
Yeah, I redeemed it by asking for them to add it. I went through the proper channels.
