That's the slowest double post I've seen yet.

:x I will buy it if online drm is removed. I refuse to buy any game that requires any kind of online linkage; including registration. I do not much mind simple online registration(not activation), but I must stand solidly with those who have no internet access. There are still plenty of people without internet.
It is hard to believe a company would be so Stupid as to turn away paying customers. That is exactly what they have done.

JCC
The question at the beginning of the thread being "How many will buy SH5 if DRM is dropped ?" I did answer, and explained why.

Unless the laws of logic and answering questions has changed recently in this universe I believe my answer is to that question and to the point. I will check with my local Vulcan the logic of it and get back to you.

Indeed the USA is in dire straits...

ubisoft - all corporations are one in the same...

DRM is this centuries version of *papers please*

If there isnt DRM there is always something else. Can't escape capitalism. They want your money and they are going to get it.

At a guess many on the sidelines would also be tossing a coin about all the other things they have to deal with!

The graphics look fantastic - the rest sounds snafu!

A unfinished offering for hard earned $$ requiring alot of modding just to get it up to a semi playable product? (lucky for many theres a skilled modding community here)

A strange business model of ubi but in todays climate normal I suppose - Let them eat cake and bake it yourself!

The thread asks "how many will buy SH5 if the drm is dropped?"

Methinks JCC has a point:hmmm:

No-one is interested in the fact that you will not buy it , or that you think UBI sux - the question was asking whether others would if the drm was dropped - even a Vulcan would be able to see the logic there

I disagree, mainly because though the question was how many would buy it if the DRM was dropped, there was also a poll option for who wouldn't buy it; and the question was the same, leaving it open for those who will and those who won't.

HOWEVER...

It seems to me that JCC asked you why you are posting here, not because you said you won't buy it, which is fine, but because you said you're not playing any Silent Hunter at all, and probably never would. So the real question becomes: Why are you even reading forums and threads devoted solely to Silent Hunter games? Most people only read forums devoted to things they are actually interested in.

robbo180265 08-25-10 09:58 AM
I stand corrected :salute::DL

Wasn't meant to be a correction - just an opinion. :sunny:

Good and fair assessment Steve and a good probing question JC....I must admit to being hesitant to posting here this morning in case it turned into a gang rape, wouldn't want to be accused of jumping on the bandwagon whilst there's still plenty of popcorn in the kitchen :03:
