I'm looking to buy a CD-Key for this game, does anyone know a legit site with good prices that takes paypal?
I've found a bunch of sites with keys under $20 but they don't look very legit and I can't find anything about them in google.

These guys are reliable. Just don't risk ordering late or in the weekend, it's very likely you will have to wait.

I just bought a cdkey from g2play, how does CoD4 handle the multiplayer login ?
Can I share the key with friends ? Of course we can't play simultaneously, but there isn't a problem, right ? The key isn't tied to the PC or anything wicked and there's no chance to be banned for sharing it on 2-3 PCs, right ?
P.S.: Right ?

No its not tied to anything on pc as far as I know but if one of your friends gets global pb ban the key will be useless to everyone

Ranks and progress is linked to a cdkey, if one of your friends decides to get his own key he'll have to start from 0 again. Also if your friend gets a global ban you cdkey will be fucked. Seriously why would you want to share your key, sharing something like a game cdkey never works out for the best.

Rank and unlockables are stored in mpdata file in profile directory. Only CoD5 rank data is tied to cdkey (account).
That being said, you can change the cdkey in-game in CoD4 and it will alter mpdata file so you won't lose your progression by changing the key.

That can get your cdkey banned by pb. Unless you play on cracked servers then it doesn't matter. And after all why would you play with someone's mpdata file, don't you want your own stats? Weird people

I meant pb, edited my post. Sorry for confusion. Steam version is the same as DVD except it requires steam running to play and patches get delayed like a week. :s

AFAIK PB isn't fully initiated in game menu. It just starts process/services but doesn't communicate with PB servers yet. Anyway I didn't get ban. But I backed up my profile on my email account so I don't lose my profile again.

I had to use that lvl55 profile that's posted around the web after forgetting to back up my own profile twice, worked great. I changed the cd key in the registry and put the mpdata file in the profile folder, started up the game where it showed all guns unlocked then changed the cd key back using the ingame menu, all guns still unlocked but now i can log back in with my own account. God knows why they can't just store the multiplayer stats server side like just about every other multiplayer game.

It's because on consoles stats are stored on HDD too but there is no way to hack them like it is on PC. I read some bullshit about how devs couldn't figure out how to protect PC stats (yeah right) so they even removed prestige mode from PC version because of that reason. I hope MW2 for PC doesn't have any of these issues.

Because all the servers out there are privatly owned, each time you would change server you would have to level up to 55 again

You didn't play many online games did you? For example BF2/BF2142 stores player profile online and all of servers are privately owned. That system works really really well.

I actually you continue playing where you get beat up at first. That's how I learned to play this game online.
It took me few months to crack top3 of scoreboard after each map. Now I'm always there if I play full round. Sometimes I even rape if I join 5 mins to end and get top3.
Anyway, you're welcum to UTDM servers. And look for others from gametracker.

You can try playing through Garena, there are a few server made by players there(Garena emulates LAN, every room you join, it acts like a local network once you get in the game)and I'm not a pro-player myself, I'm rather mediocre but I manage to make frags as long as there are no wallhackers or aimbots, which are very easy to spot but hard to kick out, because it's either my word against theirs or they have a clan's support. The lamest thing I've seen so far is that lately people don't allow other people with the Last Stand, Martyr perks or with the Grenade Launcher attachment, which is pretty lame. See you 'round there if you come by, same name.

About the perks thats not lame. those perks shouldnt be there cause it ruines the game and takes away the pleasure.
You shoot somebody dead and suddenly there still alive lying on the floor shooting with a lame pistol and you need to shoot him down again to get the kill.Then somebody else shoots one time on him he dies and that other person gets the kill thats not pretty fair.

I know what you mean but even if I find it annoying, I still go through with it cause it was inserted there by the devs. I hope they'll be gone in MW2 though, Last Stand is the most annoying of'em all.

Lol that is one of the easiest perks to overcome. Just shoot the corpses with one more bullets to make sure people are dead.

Actually, it's not that easy. You have to skip a bullet before putting another one. There's like a second of immortality during that time for last stander.

Don't know about that, but I have always managed to shoot last standers before they shoot me. I hate the grenade drop much more, because you have to run like nuts (or quickly throw, but that's harder).

You are correct. There is a bit of motherfucking invulnerability during the falling animation. Lame.

Change key, MPDATA becomes corrupted and you lose all the info.
I don't know about steam how it handles non-Valve games...Anyway I leveled 55 myself, when I had to reinstall my system I didn't know it stores your rank data locally. No ban, worked like a harm and I could use any weapon I wanted without need to level to 55 AGAIN.
