The retail GOTY edition works on Windows 10

The retail Game of the Year Edition runs on Windows 10. This game is supposed to have SafeDisc DRM, which means it should not run on Windows 10. I am able to play both the single player and multiplayer games no problem. This was even before I installed the 1.7 patch and the CoD4X mod. There are two things I can think of to explain this. They could've removed the SafeDisc DRM from the GOTY edition. They also could of removed SafeDisc sometime between the original release and patch 1.6, although I don't see anything in the previous patch notes to support this.

Source on retail GOTY keys activating on Steam?

Because mine came up as invalid and isn't in the right format for Steam anyway

Ok so.. That info was added here.

If you check that guy history, it seems like he's used to ask to publisher support desk. And I believe this is the kind of reply you get from them. Which as I read is BS.


I still have no direct confirmation that the remainder part of the claim wouldn't apply though. I mean.. I tried to look for people explicitly saying GOTY didn't work.. but at most I could find this guy that seems not even to know about it.
Which.. I mean, it's not all that weird in 2014, given it wasn't until may that the possibility was suggested (for no damn reason that steam FAQ was removed last month)

Or do you own the GOTY and that didn't work?

My Polish is inexistent but this made my laugh. Good one Infinity Ward (Suicide machine please translate :p)

Silnik dźwiękowy gry Call of Duty 4 to z jednej strony „dziwadło”, a z drugiej znak nadchodzących czasów. Brak tu możliwości wybrania konkretnej wersji rozszerzeń EAX, choć sam silnik według twórców obsługuje karty z EAX Advanced HD 4.0 i 5.0. Jak to z „eaksem” bywa, jako gracze nie wiemy, co kryje się pod stwierdzeniem „obsługuje”. Na szczęście zachowano zgodność ze sprzętem wspomagającym owo przetwarzanie, dzięki czemu zarówno program Creative ALchemy, jak i wbudowany w sterowniki ASUSA system DX GX 2.0 spełniają swoje zadanie. Nie dotyczy to prostych integr i kart dźwiękowych pozbawionych tych możliwości. 

And wtf, game used FMOD?
Wtf ², FMOD indeed supported EAX
WTF³! Now OpenAL was supported?

Seems legit but somebody who actively play the game could check this better
