My Internet Connection Isnt Great? Am I Stuffed?

hi

ive not visited this forum for a while, but i thought i'd check in today to catch up on how the SH5 development is going.

I was really looking forward to getting SH5, but this DRM stuff is worrying me a bit.

Our house has got wireless broadband which is shared by the whole household. My PC is upstairs away from the router so the connection cuts out sometimes.

Does this mean my enjoyment of the game is going to be dependent upon if other family members happen to be surfing the web, or if my wireless connection cuts out?

When your connection cuts, the game will pause and not resume until your connection does.
When Ubisoft's connections cuts, your game won't run.

Might as well get a jump on things and get a new moniker: "Turkey".

as (EDIT: Letum) said you will be able to play it ok

but im sure you will get paused often to reconnect and for me that would be very frustrating to put up with but if you had to live with that i think it would be not so bad.

the key is what the reconnection time is, this is not up to you and getting bumped from the server could cause reconnection delays if there is a large demand on them.
