This community is fairly spread out across time zones, there are usually a few people on at all times.

Also I believe this belongs in a different section, mods will probably move it.

i downloaded the gta iv on a torrent cnt i just put the steam key into it or do i have to download it from steam ?

BUY it from steam. We don't like torrenters.

Well if you do it right steam doesn't really care where the game files come from as long as it can verify their integrity.

1. Steam has a pool of validated game keys, when you purchase a copy, one of those keys get taken up, if you attempt to register a key, that is from something like a keygen, it will match none of the keys and it will simply, not work, ,key gens are meant for primarly throwing a random set of possible keys/letters that will trick a cracked copy of software into turning its self into a legal version, not for tricking steam.

2. Torrented/cracked versions do not work with LCPDFR, and are unsupported.

3. This means, it is not guaranteed to work, if it doesn't we cannot help you and the thread will be closed if your having issues.

4. Just buy the game dude.

It's not that we don't like torrenters or something, they just cause nothing but hassle, and are always an issue, thus, we simply only support legal copys of the game.

Well this kinda telling the guy/supporting him torrenting the copy, which isn't really a good idea.

If piracy discussion persists, thread will be closed. Just buy the game.

I believe he bought the game from Steam, but already has a torrented version installed, now he just wants to use the legal steam license key from his purchase with the game he already has installed.

I would just remove the cracked version and reinstall it from Steam, it only takes me about 2 hours with my crappy apartment internet.

Lots of people use torrents to get files like games or patches that they then use their legitimate registrations for, often because it can be faster.

Piracy isn't intrinsic to torrenting.
