Just read on the ubi site about a constant connection to
the internet,well that means I wont buy the game,I will buy
it when and if they do an offline version in the future,and my save
games are kept on my own computer,So looks like its back to
Gwx I cant believe they shot themselves in the foot like this,
Ubi may be the natural parent of silent hunter but GWX did
a much better job as an adoptive parent and seems to have
done all the up-bringing

Oooohhhh... now there's a tactic I haven't tried yet.
Do you suppose my jail cell will have a constant 'net connection? :hmmm:
P.S.: For all you serious minded folk out there... this is a joke. A really good one. Laugh. Try it sometime. Start deep down in your belly, let it out. It's been down there so long, it might need some help finding its way out. Let it out. :D

How dare you tell people to laugh?!:nope: This is a serious topic!:wah: If somebody finds out that there's a constant connection required it could destroy the planet!:yep: I'm going to hold myself hostage just to counter the taking of hostages that was done to counter UBI holding everybody else hostage! That'll learn yas!:stare:
Do you realize that in addition to DRM in water, why, there are studies underway to add DRM to salt, flour, fruit juices, soup, sugar, milk, ice cream? Ice cream, Mandrake? Children's ice cream!...You know when DRM began?...1946. 1946, Mandrake. How does that coincide with your post-war Commie conspiracy, huh? It's incredibly obvious, isn't it? A foreign server is introduced into our precious bodily fluids without the knowledge of the individual, and certainly without any choice. That's the way your hard-core Commie works. I first became aware of it, Mandrake, during the physical act of love...Yes, a profound sense of fatigue, a feeling of emptiness followed. Luckily I-I was able to interpret these feelings correctly. Loss of essence. I can assure you it has not recurred, Mandrake. Women, er, women sense my power, and they seek the life essence. I do not avoid women, Mandrake...but I do deny them my essence.

Speaking of which... for how much longer will Subsim require a constant Broadband/Dial-Up connection? The second I pull my Internet cable, I lose the ability to refresh pages or navigate to new ones.
Stupid, greedy, Neal, he's probably in the pockets of Big Internet...

Of the four times I have seen this being referenced, all were from Silent Hunter players. I think we are the only ones that have seen the movie.
