FAQ

Is this legitimate?
Yes, Yuplay is a legitimate Russian online shop who sells retail game keys, like Amazon Digital Download Services.

From where can I download the game? Can this version be activated on Steam?
Yes it can be activated. Jagged Alliance: Back in Action is a Steamworks game, so it can be activated and downloaded from Steam.

Is the game in Russian only or international?
You will get a Russian region key when you purchase the game, but no need to worry, the game has full English support.

Can my Steam account get banned for this?
Why would it get banned? That site is legit, they are not selling stolen keys.

Is there Region lock on Steam for this item? Do I need to use VPN server to install or play this game like it is required for some Russian region games?
There are 2 types of region restrictions on Steam:
1) Activation is locked outside of purchase country, but can be installed and played anywhere
2) Activation, Installation and game launch is locked outside of purchase country

Some games are 2) like Dishonored and Skyrim, however some, like Jagged Alliance: Back in Action are 1), so you need a Russian VPN to activate the game on Steam, but after that you can play it anywhere without any problem. Using a VPN to activate it is quite easy and only takes a few extra minutes, for a detailed (and working!) guide click here: Guide to use Russian VPN
Word of Advice: "Just in case" change your password before using any VPN and after you are done and changed back to your normal US/UK/HU or other IP, change it back.


For the rest of the FAQ I copy-paste the FAQ I wrote for Borderlands 2 since technically there are no differences from this point (not counting the name of the game and the price).

" What can I use to pay?
There are several methods to use for payment, probably the easiest and cheapest one for international customers is by credit card. Yuplay uses a Russian/Ukrainian financial site, RBK Money to handle credit card payments. I used Mastercard, all went well.
Paypal is not available.
note: some people reported that there might be problem with certain Visa cards, if RBK money can not process your Visa card, then please contact your card issuer.

How can I purchase?
It is really simple.
1) Click on the drop-down menu on the top-right corner and change the language to English.


2) Click on the big yellow button on the right side


3) Click on the yellow buy button that is next to the VIsa/Mastercard logo


4) A new page will appear, here click on the "Pay via RBK money". When you click on this button you will be redirected to an Ukranian/Russian financial site that handles credit card purchases for Yuplay.


5) On RBK Money's website fill out the required fields and click on the buy button. When you are done here you will get a link that takes you back to Yuplay's website with you game cd key.


Do I pay in US Dollars?
No. You pay in Russian Rubles, your credit card issuer will handle currency exchange. The actual price of the game may vary on current exchange rates.

(The price that you will see while paying is NOT 550 USD, it is 550 Russian Rubles!)

Do I need to register on the Yuplay website to purchase?
Yes, you need to create an account to handle purchases. Tip: on the right-up side of the site you can change the language from Russian to English, that really helps with the registration and payment.

Can I purchase several Borderland 2?
No. Yuplay only allows 1 of the same game /account.

I can't find my cd-key, where is it?
Here:






You get 2 keys. "Registration code" is used for the Steam activation and "Activation code" is for...well, I still don't know this yet, since multiplayer worked without this, any idea somebody?

Good treasure hunting everybody!"


As you can see from the pictures posted above, I activated the game without any problem within the EU, so US residenst shouldn't have problems either. As a Commandos/Desperados fan I can say that this game is well worth the $2.5 price tag.

Get it while the promotion lasts!

Always spreading the good vibes, and the work you put into explaining it is crazy. +rep

 

the moment they accept Paypal, their keys will sell like hot cakes.

 

They will accept PayPal as soon as PayPal allows money transfer to Russian PayPal accounts.

 

I don't think that it's region free.

 

Read the OP.

 

Still there

 

It's not worth buying even for $0.01
