    1 Key, 2 People?

    I was wondering, if 2 people can use the same key to play online ?
    Obviously they can't connect to the same server, but otherwise?

    If me and my friend buy one game, can we both play..

    No you have to have disk one in the drive of the computer to play it, so no you can't, you have to have two disk ones to be able to play 2 people on one account on 2 computers.

      can two people sit in the drivers seat of a car and both drive? haha

      no, they've upped their security, the older medal of honor games, players were able to do that, but not on the later games.

          Im not sure, as you both have the same CD Key, so i would say no. But it is possible to get the game runnng on both PC's. Use Alcohol 120%, it makes an image o fthe CDon the HD, so the computer thinks that the disk is insetred. If youwanna give it a go you can get it here.

              Yes. That's what I was thinking on..
              Does the game check if the key has been used by another account or if someone atm is playing with same key in a different server or smth?

                But to play together you need 2 different CD keys dont you?

                  Alcohol 120% will get the game running on 2 different machines but you'll get a 'CD-key already in use' message when the 2nd person tries to connect.

                    But I'm talking about playing on different servers. Then it should work, right?

                      I thought that would happen.

                      No i dont think so. It shold check the CD keyt when you log in, so it wont let you log in if that CD is already in use. Sorry.

                            Let's clear this up.

                            #1. You NEED ONE VALID CD KEY PER SIMULTANEOUS ONLINE PLAYER

                            #2. What you are doing is clearly against the EULA (and illegal) and discussions on this matter should cease.
