How many will buy SH5 if DRM is dropped?
 

Very simple...only for the people who have not purchased SH5 yet!

Most likely, yes.

Mr ubisoft, tear down this wall. :ping:

I voted NO....





...since I already own it, I don't need to buy it again....:ping:

Absolutely, without question. I bought SH4 while I was homeless, and didn't get to play it until several months later. I may end up hating SH5, and I may end up loving it. Probably somewhere in between, but I will definitely make that decision for myself, and I'll gladly support the effort, no matter what the outcome. :sunny:

Can't say to be honest. Depends strongly on the modder scene here, whether they will turn SHV into a worthy successor to my supermodded SHIII. Unfortunately I don't have so much time to play, so I have to be very selective. At least in the near future this one will not end up on my desk. More likely I will reconsider in a year or so what the modding has added by then.

Dang, and the result of this poll just got poisoned... LOL

Wow, just wow .. :rotfl2:

I voted yes, but it depends more on when I have a computer to run it rather than DRM, although DRM does play a small factor in the decision.

:)

Not simple enough eh? :D

I still haven't changed my opinion, which is to buy it as soon as offline play is possible using an officially endorsed solution.

Bernard! :damn:

Hmmm. Still thinking...haven't decided yet. On one hand I'd love it if DRM was gone, it's the biggest reason I will not buy it. On the other hand Ubi wants our money yet their actions show a great disrespect for those that support them with their money. A business does not need to be run like that to make a good profit and for that reason, even with no DRM, I have big reservations about buying a DRM-less SH5. On yet another hand (if I had one) I love sub sims. On yet even more hands I barely have time to enjoy my favorite SH4.

So hands down my choice is... eh...I'll come back and click my choice when I can figure out what it is.

This will surely be the most prudent, carefully and most planned 50$ spent ever! :DL;)

Yeah I'm thinking along those same lines. It's going to take more than just no DRM (the thing wasn't suppose to be there anyways), I guess I'll also need a big price drop. Either that or a miracle happens and Ubi decides to seriously patch it. If Ubi sends a couple more big patches our way, then I'll gladly buy it.

I'm confused on which way to vote. I returned my copy to Bestbuy for a refund about a week after it was released. But... a couple of days ago while haveing some beers with the Manager of my local GameStop.

He was thirsty so we worked out a trade. A couple of pictures (@ $9.00 a pop) and I helped drink them for a new very dusty copy of SH5. :D

I played it patched and modded for the first time last night.
