Russische CD Sleutel activeren

[box type="warning" align="" class="" width=""]Lees altijd de beschrijving voor je geselecteerde spel, sommige Russische CD Key vereisen een VPN om het spel daadwerkelijk te spelen, niet alleen de activatie. Verder, het nemen van acties zoals deze is in strijd met de Steam Subscriber Agreement en kan resulteren in negatieve actie tegen je account. Activeer Russian CD Key op eigen risico![/box]

De meeste vaste klanten van online cd key winkels zullen op de hoogte zijn van Russische CD Keys. Ze komen uit Rusland (duh) en zijn meestal een stuk goedkoper dan hun regio vrije tegenhangers. Waarom is dit? Nou, om het simpel te zeggen, een spel dat 70 dollar zou kosten in de Verenigde Staten of Australië vliegt niet in Rusland, dus om het spel in Rusland te laten verkopen, verlaagt de uitgever de prijzen...drastisch.

Wat dat betekent voor ons westerlingen is dat we steam keys kunnen kopen die voor de Russische markt waren bedoeld, maar ze kunnen activeren op ons normale Steam account. Dit wordt gedaan door onze computer een Russisch IP adres te geven terwijl we het spel op Steam activeren.

Voor een lange tijd hebben we gebruik gemaakt van de diensten van onze partner sites hier op CDKeyPrices. Veel van de tijd (meestal als gevolg van de kosten en het hoge verkeer) waren de diensten een beetje traag. We hebben besloten om te investeren in onze eigen kwaliteit VPN service (we hebben gekozen voor het geweldige TorGuard zodat gebruikers die via de site reizen het spel meteen kunnen activeren en niet hoeven te wachten op een verbinding met trage Russisch/Poolse servers.

Russische cd sleutels zijn een geweldige manier om veel te besparen en het duurt maar een minuut of zo om aan de slag te gaan. Volg de onderstaande eenvoudig te volgen stappen om binnen enkele minuten aan de slag te kunnen! Als u problemen heeft neem dan contact met ons op.

Stap 1 - Verkrijg het PBK-bestand

Hoewel u verbinding kunt maken met de VPN met behulp van meer geavanceerde programma's, zoals OpenVPN, dachten we dat het een beetje makkelijker voor u zou zijn als we alle instellingen die u nodig hebt vooraf configureerden in een speciaal bestand. In komt de .pbk, of Microsoft Phonebook. Dit bestand is eenvoudig te gebruiken en zeer klein om te downloaden. Eerst het belangrijkste...download het!

[box type="download" align="aligncenter" class="" width="]Klik hier om te downloaden

[/box]

Stap 2 - Ga aan de slag

Ik download meestal de .pbk direct naar mijn desktop, zodat ik het makkelijk kan verwijderen eens het klaar is.

Dubbelklik erop om het uit te voeren. De server waar we verbinding mee moeten maken is al gekozen (er is er maar één). Sommige spellen hebben misschien een IP van een ander land nodig om te kunnen werken (sommige spellen werken bijvoorbeeld niet in Japan). Als dat het geval is, neem dan contact met ons op en we zullen kijken of we nog een paar landen aan de drop-down lijst kunnen toevoegen.

Open het bestand.

Druk op Verbinden.

Voer de gegevens in van

gebruikersnaam = cdkeyprices
wachtwoord = cdkeyprices

Stap 3 - Verifieer uw IP adres

Ga gewoon naar WhatIsMyIP

Je zult zien dat er in het land gedeelte nu "Russische Federatie" staat. Dit betekent dat je IP adres succesvol is veranderd en Steam zal laten denken dat je in Rusland bent zodat je het spel in Steam kunt activeren.

Stap 4 - Open Steam en activeer de Russische CD-Key

Zodra je hebt gecontroleerd dat je IP adres is veranderd, zijn we vrij om Steam te openen en ons spel te activeren.

  • Aan de bovenkant van Steam, klik op "Games"
  • Selecteer "Activeer een product op Steam"
  • In het venster dat verschijnt klik je op "Volgende"
  • Lees de overeenkomst en klik op "I Agree"
  • Plak de code die je hebt gekregen van je gekozen cd key store in het tekst gebied en klik op Next.
  • Klik nu op Sluiten, START DE DOWNLOAD NIET.
  • Sluit steam volledig.
  • Open het CDKeyPrices.pbk bestand opnieuw en selecteer Hang Up

..en dat is het!

Stap 5 - Sluit VPN & krijg terug ons normale IP

Zodra je spel succesvol is geactiveerd, moeten we ervoor zorgen dat Steam volledig is afgesloten.

Open vervolgens het CDKeyPrices.pbk bestand opnieuw en selecteer Hang Up. Ik ga altijd graag terug naar WhatIsMyIP om te controleren of het terug is veranderd naar mijn normale land en IP adres. Dit zorgt ervoor dat alles weer normaal is, maar het belangrijkste is dat je het spel begint te downloaden van de servers in je eigen regio en niet van die in Rusland, wat wel even kan duren!

Veel plezier. Russische spullen zijn een geweldige manier om goedkope steam keys te krijgen. Lees altijd de beschrijving zorgvuldig!

  1. will the game be in russian if I use this method or will i be able to use the game in English?

    1. Depends on the game! Most of them still have English as a language, but some need to have language packs added

  2. i have the game in the inventory of steam, but i cannot add it to the library with this method, the web “what is my ip” says i’m in moscow, but steam still says im not allowed to take the game.

    1. I believe the game needs to be activated with the VPN…I think this is the mos important part…what game are we talking about here anyways?! 😛

  3. Hey so i really want to try this but im sceptical about doing it as ive heard once you activate the game with the vpn you always have to use the vpn to play it and i dont really wanna go through the hassle and i heard steam can ban your steam account for doing it? And the game i wanna do this for is Borderlands the pre sequel ~Evan

    1. If a game is released in the region free and russian version, we will usually split them up as the Russian are sometimes cheaper. What usually occurs after a period of time if the region free version becomes as cheap as the Russia version, at which point I remove it. At this point in time we don’t have any Russian/VPN games listed for price comparison, but they come and go all the time!

      1. Maybe you have a VPN program installed? I dont, but as I say, you just have to save it with .PBK at the end and it works fine

  4. I have a question!
    When i activated a game like fifa 15 or something. Can i play with my friends with te global version and do i need every time when i’m gonna play it turn my vpn on? Plz awnser me because this will spend me a lot of money if it mwill work!

    1. It really depends on the game!! But most yes it is only the language that needs checking, but some are locked to Russian servers. Havent seen one like that in a while though. Always read the description on the website you pick.

  5. I’ve just bought a Civilization Beyond Earth key that is RU region. I have used your method and managed to successfully enter the game key. Relogged without the .pbk and Steam will not allow me download it because of the region lock. I think it may be fair to warn users that Steam is now doing this!

    1. Thanks for this. As I mentioned, its very important to check each game. Did you manage to fix the issue? I haven’t looked into the Russian Civ versions to be honest.

      1. Not yet, no reply from steam support to allow me to remove it to get a normal version, and ignored by the seller on if I can trade it back with the added monetary difference for my region. I have a feeling it is new releases on Steam now… Perhaps old RU keys will continue to work.

        1. Let me know what’s going on, I did the same thing, but with Ghosts, and it won’t let me even download it.

          1. Unfortunate news. My vendor refused any kind of exchange or refund, and Steam wasn’t budging either. I had no option but to cut my loses, losing all the money I paid for the RU version, and only yesterday did Steam commit to removing it completely from my library so I could purchase it legitimately region-free (at the naturally higher price).

      2. It does seem to be a Steam-wide crackdown on any new keys that are region locked. That being said, the support staff were helpful and very nice to me considering they almost positively knew I was cheating them out of pocket by doing what I tried to do.

  6. I activated CoD: Advanced Warfare RU with the pbk file but then I forgot to exit steam and instantly pressed download whilst still being connected to the Russian IP. It then said the game is region locked and when I disconnected from the VPN and tried again with my normal IP it also says it’s region locked. Is it because of what I did wrong or is it an issue with this specificc game?

        1. G2A No specific instructions there but same thing here did the activation but the download is broke i thing this is a bug steam sided i seen also people from ukriane dat have the same problem.

    1. I did the exact steps and it says when I go to install. “This game was activated with a product code that is valid only in a specific geographic region. Since you are not currently in that region, CoD-AW – Multiplayer is not available to play. :/

      1. Same problem here. I can only make it start when using a RU vpn. If I don’t use it Steam doesn’t say that is installed on the system!

          1. I simply connected to the VPN, then when it started I’ve disconnected from the VPN. The download procedeed normally then

  7. I’ve activate CoD: Advanced Warfare RU, following this guide http://www.cjs-cdkeys.com/blog/2011/09/russian-steam-keys/09/how-to-activate-russian-steam-cd-keys/. I bought it from G2A. I connected to the VPN, activated the game, and started downloading it, then I’ve disconnected from the VPN and the download continued normally. Now the problem is that If i don’t connect to the VPN and Start steam after doing this Steam won’t let me start CoD. And I can’t play online because it does not connect to the servers… Any suggestions?

  8. Try to connect using the .pbk and U & P in the guide, but get “error 691: The remote connection was denied because…” Basically it doesn’t like the U&P…

      1. That would be awesome, thanks. I have been looking at a subscription VPN for $6 per month, but this sort of defeats the point, considering it’s used to buy RU keys to save money…

        1. Hi there…I have just emailed the website I am with for the service, appears I have some sort of billing issue I wasn’t aware of!!

          Will get back to you 🙂

  9. Does this officially work yet? i just saw how much cheaper Dying Light was if i bought an RU pre-order key.

  10. Does this officially work yet? or does steam still give you issues when using this method? because an RU Dying Light key is a hell of a lot cheaper

  11. so whenever I put “Yes I have steam, install your new game now” all it says on steam is preparing list of steam licenses and it just stays there nothing downloads and the game doesnt appear

  12. I’ve opened the VPN up, have the game (H1Z1) in my inventory, tried to redeem it and add to library but still doesn’t work. please help

  13. Today it changed my currency to dollars, kinda funny.
    Tried it yesterday too, my steam (on browser) was in russian, but my steam client was still european, couldnt activate mah steam gift on neither of em’. I’ve been lookin for working VPN for a while and nothing worked out so far. Any ideas?

    1. hello, i bought evolve monster monster race edition and i was able to install and activate it via vpn and then i stumbled upon the region lock problem. i tried the fix multiple times but it just doesn’t work for me. i even went so far as to completely uninstall then reinstall steam and then proceeded with the fix but i just can’t get it to work. i can get so far as downloading and installing then running once then exit steam and vpn then adding the non steam game with id. i use cdkeyprices vpn and flyvpn together to download and install but somehow the shorcut thing doesn’t work for me. any thoughts?

      1. yea bro for evolve it didnt work for me by putting the text file in same folder as the evolve.exe. i had to put the text file in the evolve.exe folder (which was the common/EvolveGame/Bin64_SteamRetail folder) AND i had to put the text file in the common/EvolveGame folder. it will work for you if you do put it in both folders. need anymore help let me know.

        1. i got it to work now. thanks a lot man. i haven’t tried multiplayer yet though; inviting friends to play. if i learned anything from this is that vpn activated games are usually a pain. i guess i’m lucky i found a thread with the same issue with the same game

          1. so did you have to did you have to put the text file in both folders that i listed above to get it to work? Also since its a non-steam game you will not be able to invite friends to play with you, they might be able to invite you im not sure, but i was not able to invite any of my friends. So i had steam delete evolve from my library and i bought the Russian steam GIFT of the game and activated vpn and now its not region locked so i can invite friends and they can invite me.

            actually on the vpn games pain part, if you dont do the digital key and do the steam gift via vpn its alot easier and you dont have to worry about the region lock. i dont think i’m ever buying a russian digital key again i think im stickin with the steam russian gifts. never had a problem with the gifts, just the digital keys.

          2. yes i did, it worked like a charm. i just finished a session with friends. i can confirm that they can invite me but we forgot to go about me inviting them. next time we play, i’ll insist on inviting them then i’ll post an update here.
            thanks on the tip with with steam gifts. i’ll remember that next time i decide to buy a game. high five

          3. I can confirm that I cannot invite my buddies to game but they can invite me. They just hear that tone whenever you receive an invite but nothing on the chat

          4. okay confirmed then. it did the same with my buddy and I. have fun good luck.

  14. Bought a Russian game, able to activate it, but Steam will not let me download it even though I am still connected to VPN. Any solutions people?

    1. Hi there Grove88, are you the person I have just responded to via email? I need a bit more info about your game. I am trying not to list them anymore as they are harder and harder to get working!

      1. Hi there admin, I am not the person you are referring to. I bought Evolve basic version. I have to connect to the VPN and download it, and then use the workaround Rob provided to get it working. Hope that helps thank you.

  15. been waiting for 5 days now, no responses to any of my emails. the Xbox account I ordered is no longer on the website. very very dissappointed with you guys. you took my money but have not sent me an email as to what’s going on with my account. horrible customer service DO NOT BUY FROM THESE PEOPLE

    1. Hi there… What store did you make the purchase from?

      Remember, I’m just tracking prices, and I don’t track Xbox One accounts! Still happy to help…

      1. I purchased it from CJS CD Keys, and it is an Xbox account. Order #535617, any way you could help me would be greatly appreciated.

        1. Lmao, wtf are you ranting on about, in the comment section of cdkeyprices.com, if you made your purchase on a completely different side, tard?

  16. Hi.I use vpn to activate key, but when I use it to download the game will not let me download someone could help me pls.

  17. Hi! I activated a russian version of both Advanced Warfare and Dying Light on steam. I was able to activate/download/run them both. However, when I needed to reinstall them, even when I followed the steps above exactly, and when ip address sites say I’m in Russia, steam still says that the games cant be played in my region. Any advice?
    Thanks for all your help in advance!

  18. Game is region locked so it is compulsory to use a VPN for the entire time when you are playing. And for this we need a VPN which show Russian Ip. I search on internet with the search term of Best Russian VPN and found VpnRanks, which is a VPN review site. Then I choose a VPN provider from there and after that I haven’t got any problem with my game.

  19. hey,i activated ARK: Survival Evolved using a ru/cis gift, now, everytime i start the game i have to use the vpn, otherwise i get this message:This game was activated with a product code that is valid only in a specific geographic region since you are not currently in that region,ARK: Survival Evolved is not available to play, any fix?:(((

    1. nope. Now you are fucked. You have to wait 90 days before you can play the game. Don’t buy Russian keys!

  20. i wana buy cs go on g2a but there is steam gift no cd key so i wana ask how to actiave that rusian version?

  21. I’ve got a problem :/
    I bought a russian Steam-key for “Deadpool” from g2a.com and used this guide. It worked well until “You can now start to download your game.” I cannot, because it says that I am not in the country where the key is valid. Even when closing steam and changing my IP to russian it fails to work, because of the same issue. How can Steam recognize where I really am despite my russian IP? And how can I even download the game now, any hints?

    1. Hi there, I don’t really suggest using gifts anymore to get around region restrictions as they are really cracking down on it.

  22. You forgot to warn us that using a VPN to activate keys is in breach of the Steam Subscriber Agreement and that doing it could get your account PERMANENTLY SUSPENDED.

  23. This method works but not for all games, for example it works with me with: All counter strike version, Left 4 Dead, Garry’s Mod, outlast, PES 2015/2016

    but didn’t work with Dying Light, Rocket League, COD AWF, game activated normally with VPN & downloaded successfully but after disconnecting the VPN “Play” turns into “install” again & must open VPN to play it.

    Any Idea ?

    1. Hi Mohamed,

      Yes this is the case with a lot of Russian games now, you need a VPN to install AND play..I am adding a warning to the guide.

  24. Where are you from guys? If from Hungary, or other poor country, it’s okay… but if you from Germany, or the USA it’s not okay…

    1. Every game is different, please read the instructions carefully! Some need VPN to play others, only activation.

      1. Thx! Works perfectly, however. second game that i bought, Assassins creed, came only with russian language :/

  25. Hi is there a list of games that are playable without VPN? That way you’re sure that the RU game you bought will work anyway.

  26. for everyone who has preoblems just ajust date/time to the region you bought game and activate vpn too if game says is region locked
