No it seems to run fine for me and my friend here, so you can rule that out.Unless your friend bought it from a 3rd party site with a Russian VPN (as they're usually cheeper) but i think Steam would notify you about that.I'm out of ideas. Originally posted by:Notify me of what? If he did that it wont work? Don't quote me on this one because I haven't tried it but most 3rd party sites that sell steam keys/gifts often include an option to buy the game with a Russian VPN region lock which is usually a lot cheeper.I don't know what happens if you try to redeem one of those outside of Russia but i'm GUESSING Steam would notify you that you were trying to redeem a region locked code instead of crashing.Key validated.

Game downloaded and installed.twice lolGuessing it's not that then. Without going too far in the weeds, pricing is different on steam in different markets. Games can be cheaper or have different content based on the region they were bought in.

These are known as 'region locked' if you try to activate a key that does not match with the region you are in steam can and will take actions against your account. Now it's never happened to me but I understand that the potential punishments range from simply removing the game to full on locking the account. That being said.

Mad Max Fury Road

I doubt the issue you are having is due to a region locked key.Start with basic stuff. Restart your pc, try to run steam as admin, try to run madmax.exe directly from the steam file as admin. Some things to try:Simply restart your PCMake sure Steam isn't running in compatibility modeReset your 3D settings in your video card control panelRun the game and Steam as administratorMake sure your anti-virus software isn't quarantining game files (Especially when using poor antivirus products like McAfee)Disable multiple monitorsUpdate your audio driversRun the game in compatibility modeDon't use third-party programs that force 3D settings in gamesInstall the game to your default Steam folder on the C: drive.

All about singeling out variables until you find the error bra.You should try what the guy above me wrote, seems like a clever grape.
