If you have another computer you can install steam onto that one and re download the game but it will not allow you to duplicate the game because thats illigal copy and violates your agreement with steam. So only one person can have the game on one machine so if your buddy wants to play with you he will have to set up his own steam and get the game. You can purchase the game and send it to him as a gift on steam one of the cool options they allow to share a game but you still have to pay for it unless its free
You should be able to, as the purchase will be linked to your steam account, not to the computer you were on.
You can't share a game between two accounts on steam, you'd have to buy the game again on the other account.
Absolutely! Your Steam account is accessible the same way that an email account is. Once you install Steam on a computer, you can log in with your own account and your entire game library will be available to you. You will need to install whichever games you want to play on the "new" computer, but your account/scores/achievements will all be the same on any computer through the Steam cloud. I personally have a few games installed on each of my two computers using the same account, and sometimes I log into my friend's Steam program so I can have my achievements there too!
yes if you have steam account and you have purchased games with it. You can log back into that account if you reinstalled your computer or what not and log into steam again with that account and have all those games still in there just have to redownload them :(
Yes. You just need to know their user and password then log in and you can install the games. Do note that this is a violation of the user agreements and could result in penalties and even criminal charges. You are essentially depriving the company of revenue.
P1: No you don't need the disks. P2: The orange box requires the compulsory download of 'steam'. When you install games with steam, the product key is then PERMENANTLEY registered to your own personal steam account, and therefore cannot be used again; only for the same steam account. However disks can be re-used on an infinite number of computers. you just need unique product keys for every different steam account.
No, once a game is added to an account, it is non-transferable. The only way to transfer the game at that point would be to give the whole account.
Answer #1Step 1: Buy the game. Step 2: Install Steam. Step 3: Download game with your Steam account and enter the serial code when asked. Answer #2 If you already have Steam, you can purchase it from the Steam store. It will download straight to your computer!
Did it install with steam? If not that is probably why. Go to www.steampowered.com and download steam. When you installed it and registered an account, open up the client and click the game menu in the top left corner click activate a game. Then enter your serial number that came with the game.Steam connects all your games to your account, so that you can play any of your games on any computer you own.
If you have purchased the game on Steam then you need to install Steam on that PC and there should be an install button on the game in your Steam Library. If you have the disk version you just have to put in it and install it using the CD key that came with it.
You cannot send games to other through Steam other than through the gift system. Once a game is linked to an account, it stays there. The only way you could let your friend play the game is by giving him your account.
