I can see the point of anger coming from many folks who have resisted the temptation to buy SH5, feeling they have been let down by those of us who have bought the game and struggle on with the DRM issues and to a lesser degree bugs.

I can also accept that we who bought SH5 are sort of feeding the beast because if Ubi can turn around and say the whole DRM meltdown hardly effected sales, then we all lose as they will continue to ignore the customer base over DRM.

What does not help though, is unofficial spokesmen for Ubsioft (will resist the temptation to call them fanbois) trying to insist their servers are fine and the game is fine in general. I'm getting really sick of the over the top defence of Ubisoft, just as sick as i am getting of the over the top ranting.
