@Nyerguds Yes, @TERORISTU told me in private chat that he is contacting Steam about it, who will probably respond in a day or so. Hopefully they can help him out with this weird issue.

@TERORISTUYou told me in private chat that Steam just provided you with a new key/activation for free. So, there was zero contact between EA and Steam as the keys are automatically provided to Steam. Thus advice for other people with this problem: contact Steam and give them all the proof they need to show this is an issue many people have and that you can't do anything about it.
Edit: I was wrong in this message, see the reactions below!

By the way, in the beginning of the discussion about this problem we talked about the price of CNC4. Recently in different media it was reported that EA increased the prices of their old games on Steam. See: https://www.pcgamer.com/ea-has-jacked-up-the-prices-of-lots-of-old-games-on-steam/ They doubled the price of CNC 4 to 20 euros. This is why I first saw a lower and then a higher price on Steam, which really confused me. Just wanted to explain that 🙂

@mrtnptrs Read again what i wrote in our steam chat, i never said that steam provided me with a free cd-key O_o , please read what i wrote. I told you that i was informed that after Steam contacted EA for my issue , both could cofrm that my cd-key should work , and EA doesnt know it isnt working. SO steam decided to give me a cd-key for another game (QUAKE 4) because my issue with C&C 4 wont be solved.
Before posting , please read carefully what is wrote down.
- mrtnptrs6 years agoSeasoned Ace@TERORISTU Yes, you're right, you told me "so steam decided to help me and gave me a free game" and I assumed you meant CNC4 as you didn't talk about any other game haha. So, the issue isn't really solved and they just gave you a good but veeeeeeeery cheap game....
