This is how Steam works, and I assume the Ubi system will be similar. It doesn't necessarily have to be a problem... Mods usually need to be updated when a game is patched.

It does become a problem, however, if for some reason you wish to stick with an older version of the game. Take a game like Empire Total War, where a nasty bug was introduced in the latest (and final) patch which made the game very unenjoyable for a lot of people. But you cannot roll back to a previous patch version, since Steam won't let you.
