Has the negativity killed the propaganda?
 
I was wondering if this whole attitude towards DRM now has completly killed new screenshots and gameplay video,s? I mean they must be more reluctent to put them up in fear of more negative waves?

To be honest no news is good news look at the announcements over the last few weeks.

I would like to think that Ubi is busy trying to remove DRM from their games, too busy to post pics, but I know better. They will go silent until they release the game to avoid any more of our depth charges

I don't think it can get much more negative than this, so if I were them I would release some screenies, vids... anything! Anything to make us say "gee I don't like this OSP/DMR but damn that game looks good, so I might accept it". Or at least try to make us think in that direction.

Yea, this drm put this game down big time...

Yeah... most of us don't have a beef with the content. We weren't exactly happy with the limited campaign and only the VII, but most of us can rationalize buying SH5 regardless, especially with the increased ability to add content via mods.

The DRM/OSP is what's got us all in an uproar. I wouldn't recommend Ubisoft mention anything regarding it unless they're deciding to listen to us and get rid of it.

Thats exaclty what is was thinking.

My attitude towards SH5 has been changed yes, I don't wanna rely on a second party to play a frickin' game.
Sh5 is not a MMO where you have to log in to the server first before you can play.
Whats next, a eyescan checked by the CIA before I can play Lemmings?

Edit: I couldn't care less about new screenies or videos atm

I don't think so. Those are probably "just not in scedule" now. I think UBI Romania must have busy time right now.

I hope they busy doin damage control, instead of doin screenshots.

I hope we are indeed in the process of torpedoing their OSP/DRM thingie, and that they are busy discussing its removal instead of doing their Goebbels/Propaganda thing.

Perhaps they could post a gameplay vid that has half of it showing the message:

"Connection to UbiFreedom Server Interrupted: attempting to reconnect"

BulSoldier 01-30-10 01:40 PM

How cool would be if they make a live interview showing the game and during that we see the "connection lost". :rotfl2:

When something is dying - it is not appropriate to make videos or screens.

conus00 01-30-10 02:13 PM

I've already posted it before but couldn't resist.
