[PSA] You cant redeem For Honor code against the same GPU twice
i tried redeeming one on my machine (i had already redeemed my own code) but logged in as my son, it told me i had already redeemed the game against my GPU.
That told me what i expected what would happen next.
First i tried redeeming it with his 1060 installed, on hos machine. that tole me technical difficulties but didnt say it was the wrong gpu.
then i installed my card, the 1070 and it told ne the same thing as when it was in my machine. game already redeemed on this GPU.
Sigh,
only other thing to try is to have someone who has never redeemed the game, and never intends to, to try it on thier machine logged in as my son.
UPDATE
This will work on a system that has the appropriate card and does not have the game already installed.
Follow these steps
Do this on a system that has the appropriate card (1070 or 1080) and does not have the game already installed.
1. Open and log in to GeForce Experience (Version 3.2.2 or higher) with the account of the final player
2. Go to the Account drop-down menu and click “REDEEM”.
3. Paste your coupon code from your qualifying bundle purchase and click on “REDEEM”.
4. Select game of choice and click “CONTINUE”
Select the game you want
5. Log in with the final player's game provider account(s)
6. Select user account and click “REDEEM”
