    steam / uplay account problem

    Before Uplay became all shiny and updated I rarely used it except for Splinter Cell Conviction. My brother and I both have accounts but when I bought Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon on Steam I had lost my login and accidentally registered the game to my brother's Uplay account. I loved the game and finished it. However, some time later my brother got Splinter Cell: Blacklist and logged in to find Blood Dragon on his account. Blood Dragon was unplayable by him since it was linked to my Steam account.

    This happened some time ago and only now that we're both using Uplay regularly for Rainbow Six Siege did I remember about this issue.

    Is there any way we can remove Blood Dragon from my brother's account? That way he can buy it and play it for himself. I'd then delete it from my steam account and repurchase it at my leisure for my Uplay account. I'd just like to fix this problem asap.

    if your register the game under another account it's locked to that account

    thats just how it works

    CD keys are only good for 1 use

    after that the game can be found in your Uplay account that you used to activate the game on

    Steam works the same way ... as does origin and all other online services

    With Steam I know I can permanently remove a game from my account / library. That's what I'd like to do here in Uplay.
    I never said anything about reusing a CD key. I want to be rid of it haha
