(More customer reviews)I've been a huge Novalogic fan since 1998. But this will be my last Novalogic game unless they get rid of their insane copy protection. In 32 years of gaming I have NEVER seen something this bad. For crying out loud, all I wanted to do was play the game in single player mode!
Here's what I had to do just to make the game run:
I installed the game and started it. Then a screen came up with all the options blanked out because it said the game had to be activated online. Well, the computer I was using didn't have an Internet connection and there was no way to activate the game manually. Frustrated, I later installed the game on another PC back home. I once again attempt to activate the game. It won't. It says the game has to be updated first. Fine, I download and install the update. Then I try to activate the game again. Now I'm told I have to first log into my Novaworld account. I already had a Novaworld account, so I dug up it's account name and password. Well, it didn't work. Okay, I'll create a new account. Now the game says I have to exit the game. I exit. Then at the online account creation screen at Novaworld.com a questionnaire pops up and asks if I own any Novalogic games. Well duh! I click "Yes!!!". Then I proceed to fill in the 18 part form, create a character and login name that isn't already used on Novaworld, create a password, type in the case sensitive six digit online verification code found at the bottom of the screen, click the check mark that says "I accept the terms of use.", then I submit the form.
Now I'm informed that my account has been rejected because it says my email address is already in their database! So, I request Novaworld e-mail me my "working" password and account name that they have on file. After getting their email I start the game again and type in the working account name and password. I try to activate the game again. Now it says it can't start the game because I need to go to Novaworld.com and enter my 28 digit "Delta Force: Xtreme 2" key code. "Are you kidding?!" So, I exit the game again. I go to the Novaworld website again and then request to change my online account settings. I enter my account and then type in the 28 digit key which I found inside my box. I also find I need to select a "character" online or I won't be able to play the game even in single player mode either. Done! Now I log out of Novaworld and start the game once again and successfully activate it! "Hurray!" Will miracles ever cease?! I then start a single player campaign. Oh, but wait, before the new campaign starts another screen pops up inside the game with a questionnaire and is asking me what my favorite Novalogic game of all time is! "Well, it sure as heck ain't this game!!!" The only good news I can offer is that I was able to get to the third mission before the game crashed.
Folks, this is not what I call fun! Do yourself a favor and skip this game and Novalogic for that matter.
