[Gorton] All multiple account can't log in stuff goes here

Postby Shodogun » 21 Nov 2016, 21:08

So yeah, when starting FAF it says I have too many accounts linked to my PC but I only have one. It then tells me to link it to Steam, but it needs to have Forged Alliance on Steam (but not installed for some reason??). I don't use Steam and I don't have FA on Steam but a retail version. So even if I link it to Steam, which I won't, it won't work???

PLz fix fast. I can't play my favorite game... :(

Hi Shodogun,

You don't need to have FA on steam, but do you have a steam account you could link to?

Yeah I guess, but I haven't used it in a while... There is no other way?
If there are any accounts linked to this computer, feel free to delete them because they aren't mine and shouldn't be linked to my computer.

Hi you have two accounts; Dookin and Shodogun. I removed Dookin, you should be able to log in again.

Nice tnx, I figured it out! That was my brothers old account and i am using his old CPU and hard drive because he upgraded his PC. Is that possible?
Anyway, he doesn't play anymore so deleting his account is fine either way.

Thank you for the quick reaction guys!

Your computer is associated with too many FAF accounts

Postby Zeratul » 21 Nov 2016, 21:52

Hi,

I recovered the computer from my son who was playing SUPCOM. I do not know what to do to keep playing. He had an account called Tassadar I think.
Can you help me ?

Sorry for language, this is GOOGLE Translate ;-)

Regards,

are you sure you that the account you are talking about is not a smurf account? Your forum name is different and it sais "Tassadar didnt change your name" on the name change website

the "Computer linked to too many accounts" problem

Postby MrSprengmeister » 21 Nov 2016, 22:01

well that´s the third one in a short time, but in my case it´s quite different...

I don´t have a second account. Can somebody tell me who the other/s are?
Because I have an idea what causes that ,and if it is what I think it is, then the change that caused that message has a huge mistake implemented in it...
