Please let us know if you get any answers. It is a shame. I have purchased so many games exclusive for Shield and they are now either abandoned and not working on new Android version or/and they have problems with the licence check.
Finally got a response from Nvidia customer service, but it was boilerplate stuff: try a wired connection, clear the cache for the games affected, etc. None of that helped, as I expected.
I also signed up for the hotfix system updates like they suggested, but I doubt that'll resolve the issue, either...
what did you guys think would happen to these games? It`s DRM guys! Hello? It works similar like Steam (where you also don´t own the games, since the second your OS-support runs out is the second you have to move on...or you lose access to all of your games. It´s just that simple).
There is a timer here. And when that timer (which you cannot see) runs up: The licence is dead.
In this case it´s a certificate which is no longer valid. The certificate has run out and hasn´t been renewed in time. Time is up.
People have warned others that many invisible certificates are installed on fridges etc. And the second they run up is the second you can no longer use your fridge`s OS!
I have purchased and have proof of purchase for Half-Life 2 Half-Life. Episode one Half-Life episode two and can't play any of these games I like these games and didn't finish two of them I want a refund but would rather just be able to play them Waaaahhh
I am sure this is old news to some folks, but I figured there's no harm in getting the word out since I don't see much talk about it online.
I do not have a full list of titles affected by this issue, but the ones I own that fail the license check are Resident Evil 5 and Metal Gear Rising Revengeance. I purchased them on January 22 of this year.
I put in a support ticket with Nvidia to make someone at the company aware of the issue. I doubt it'll make much of a difference, but eh.
