Contact them, and tell them what?

Also, does any of the official retailers ship worldwide? if so, which one?

Ask them how to proceed from here, as the policy on people with pirated copies has generally been a fairly straightforward banning.

Your case has more mitigating circumstances than most if you indeed bought it from a store where you live, but you need to talk to them about it. You are likely going to have to buy a legitimate copy if you wish to stay on these forums.

[Denisius]

Well, i did buy it from a store, and i'll go the day after tomorrow, to see what the seller has to say about it.

Either way, i guess i'll have to order it. Do you know which one of the official retailers ships world wide?

[Zeldor]

Hmm... I think Shrapnel store does.

If you got a pirated copy it is rather newly pirated or cd key was put recently on net, because you wouldn't be able to use any patch at all.

Denisius, as I'm also from Israel, can you tell me which store you bought it from? (I might know it, so I can both:
a) Beware of buying games from them.
b) Confirm their existence and any bad reputation they might have. (If I know them, of course))
As for where you can get it legally, I bought it directly from Shrapnel Games' store. It took them a bit over a week to ship it. (that is, a bit over a week from shipment to delivery)

[Denisius]

When i was there, i didn't notice any name, i think it has none.

Alright, i'll order the game in a few days.

By the way, in what city do you live in?

[Agrajag]

Ah, so it's one of them. Not surprising at all that you got an illegal copy then.
Nowadays I do most of my game-shopping from mediagame.co.il, they have the cheapest prices I've seen, and I much prefer having the game shipped over than actually getting out of the house (They also tend to have games much earlier then regular stores.)

[Denisius]

Thanks for the link, now i can really never leave the house again.
