No connection drops, no problems.

The leaderboard feature, about the only "benefit" of the system, is absolutely ridiculous though. It is full of hackers with billions of tons sunk and very blatant "cracked" account names. So much for "copy protection" working I hope they crack down on that, at the very least. It's making it all look like a joke.

I hope the DRM goes away but honestly, on a scale of 1 to 10, it's been 0 as far as having any effect of my experience with the game.

The game itself has yet to be ripped. Those accounts are probably hacked accounts, not hacked games.

Wouldn't surprise me. BF:BC 2 already is, and it's not even in stores yet.

Wouldn't surprise me if Silent Hunter V is cracked already either.

Look over at my nickname and see when I joined and how many post I have.
Don't think Neal believes that I'm a real game pirate.

Well after looking in a mirror I do have a beard,if that counts. ( ) But alas I do not have the knowledge to screw up a computer game, nor do I want to.

But it does show you were grasping for straws for an answer.

Still the whole "Leader Board" thing is a fraggin farce if you ask me and really has not place in a game like this... what about mods? Duhrrr...

Then they hack them to boot... laughable.

Thanks for the 'service' Uplay...

Yeah, for all it's worth, while the DRM side of it doesn't bother me, the "online features" are pretty laughable. You can tell that the game wasn't even designed with them in mind and it was tacked on at publisher's insistence. It's not to say that there is no good way to use things like this, but right now the "features" are as good as not being there at all.
