1286542 2012-07-07 03:24:00 so i have a origin account and i wanted to activate my crysis game on origin since you cannot you must go to a seperate page (activate.ea.com) and so crysis activated and i created a EA classic screen name like it asked me to so i look round and see that it has activated but not shown up in origin, do i need to install the game from my physical copy as well?, i have opened and closed origin like the website says to heres the forum i read as well forum.ea.com jxer4567 (16665)
1286543 2012-07-07 05:07:00 I assume you would need to install it if you wanted to play it. Agent_24 (57)
1286544 2012-07-07 06:13:00 But when i activated crysis2 in origin i downloaded it jxer4567 (16665)
1286545 2012-07-07 06:26:00 This all sounds gibberish too me. I have Crysis 2 and don't remember going through all that. I remember entering a code apoun installation and thats about all I had too do. I think the first time I played it I might of had to activate it by pushing the activate button then after a few seconds a message came up saying activation successful.

1286546 2012-07-07 06:31:00 Well you probably didn't try to use it on Origin. Not sure why anyone would want to, really. Agent_24 (57)
1286547 2012-07-07 06:34:00 Mine is a non Origin version. I downloaded it from Gamesplanet.com

1286549 2012-07-07 21:38:00 You must install the box copy... And you should at all times avoid origin because it sucks. If you buy it from origin then it will download but if it is a box copy you have to install it from the CD. Slankydudl (16687)

Then you are stuck then if the computer has no DVD drive. You have to install it off the DVD first. Another option is to buy it again over the internet and download to the computer.
