I dont know what can be done but im in a bind. I love paradox games but now im in afghanistan serving in the US army. My CK2 is full blown ctd mode and i need a new install (DLC doesnt work for some reason either). Problem is that the only internet out here at these shitty fobs is the internet cafe which has admin rights blocked. That means while i can download the gamersgate (i hear you guys make more money if i buy through them!) exe i cannot run it to download the files! Is there anyway i can get direct download links or some other idea I havent thought about?

Thanks for your service to the U.S. I hope that you get it worked out.

Little you can do. What could you tell about your game's situation. Did you edit some files before it broke? Did you try to install a mod, DLC, or a patch?


P.S. Those are some badass pictures :cool:

I would have said "Vote Obama, he promised to withdraw the troops from Afghanistan" but that years 4 years ago... Shame he didn't do it, you could have downloaded CK2 without any problem.

Just a thought. Not sure if this would work. But could a family member or someone you trust, download the game from GG and put the Install files on CD and mail it to you or send it to you as a torrent. Then just add the CD key you purchased. When you use a GG installer you have the option to save all the install files, so it seems like it should work.

I take it the problem would be solved if your computer had internet access? Couldn't you ask to connect your computer to the café-wifi?

By what I understand from this thread, I take it Gamersgate provides you with an .exe file to install the game, but the messe hall' wi-fi blocks .exe dowloads so thats a no go, right? If thats the case, how about you have someone dload the game for you back at home, set up a dropbox/ google drive account (if you dont already) and have him/her place it there. Let it upload and it'll automatically be dloaded into your computer. Maybe that'll bypass the .exe block. Dont know if it'll work but thats all Ive got :(

Edit: if it still blocks you through a cloud service, try having your friend edit the file extention to anything other than .exe, like .ex, so it doesnt trigger the wi-fi block. Again, maybe Im being stupid but its an idea.

Um, are people starting to make this political? Let's not go there. As to the OP that sounds like kind of a unique situation, I'm not really sure what you could do, but you could check the tech support forum, Idk if that will help, though.

I did think this was about the Ilkhanate or something, maybe I've been playing CK2 a little too much... :laugh:

remember its possible to just download the files. get someone to upload it to a file hosting server(maybe pack everything in a rar file), download the rar, unpack, and voila! a ready to play CK2 as logn as the appdata area is still intact(in which case you can play it, but without the DLC).
