Why would I lose connection when playing SH5 then. Its only needs connection to start the game. And im sure their be an offline mode available.

i believe the problem is servers and not ISP

also according to UBI there is no offline, you have to be online or you cant play it

servers are only going to cause issues if theres an overload use, I can't see 10 million people connecting to SH5, more like in the thousands or the way some are scared of this online connection then might end up as couple of hundred! :O:

this DRM is for ALL of their 2010 games and they arent microsoft so i dont expect top of the line server banks of the very latest equipt with the capacity to handle ALL the gamers for their games.

can you honestly not see this overwhelming the system and having slow downs, crashes, and server rationing going on.

No. Not everyone else works for a paycheck. Some people really do like what they do. And some people want to make things that are good (as opposed to "good enough"). Such people do exist. Whether or not any of them can be found in Ubisoft is another matter. ;)

Connect to server .
Start playing game .
My son disconnects the bloody internet for some ludicrous reason again .
The game pauses while it reconnects .
I play the game again .
I have sunk a battleship .
I save the game .
I get a message saying i have unlocked the golden torpedoes .
I have gained 100 Ubi super dooper points to download the golden stopwach .
I go to log in , in 12 months time .
I have to pay to suscribe to the server .
