-Registered account on the Slitherine Page
-Reset PW
-Registered DW + Legends + Shakturi + Shadows on Slitherine page
-Slitherine "My Page" will allow me to register a Universe Serial if I click on Steam Codes button, on which ONLY a Register button exists, but states that there as NO Steam Coupons available.

-Matrix Members pages shows I have a code available for Universe

-Steam has no feature to allow Codes to be entered during a purchase.

What the bloody F'ing Hell am I missing?????

------------------------------------------------------

You don't add it during a purchase. On the main Steam library window, in the bottom left corner press the following:

+ Add a Game
Activate a Product on Steam

Then copy and paste your Steam key into there. :)

The discount Coupon thing only works on the Matrix site.

Status: offline 		um you dont need to register all those on slitherine only universe. you need to generate a coupon in the members club of matrix for the loyalty special. then you register universe at sltherine, then you proceed to generate a steam key through slitherine. then in steam games tab drop down active product key enter code from slitherine download from steam.

Status: offline 		Ok that made NO sense at all.

I need to register a serial to get a coupon. So the Coupon is NOT a discount but a refund?

Matrix members has only one option I can see to generate a coupon, "My Discount Codes". What else is there?

edit: WAIT! You mean we buy the game from MATRIX, thus getting a code. THEN register the Code with Slitherine, THEN use the Steam Code.

Would be so much easier if that would just be stated anywhere.

Did you already read through the pinned threads in this forum? If not, please also double-check those.

In short, you need to register all your previous DW releases in the Matrix Games Members Club. Then after they are registered, use the My Discount Codes to get a coupon.

Then purchase DW Universe in the Matrix Games store using that coupon code. This will give you a serial number for Universe.

If you want a Steam key, you then need to use that Universe Serial number on the Slitherine site to get a Steam key.

Regards,

- Erik

Agreed! I too got confused by it, but glad you got there in the end
