In the past many publishers thought they had come up with the ultimate copy protection, and everything failed. If Ubi's DRM is performant, then it's possible that SH5 won't be cracked. But I can't imagine a title like Assassin's Creed 2 not getting cracked at some point (~day of release).
Btw regarding the DRM itself: people (Trenken mostly) say that it's "uncrackable" because the game is entirely coded around it and it would take months to remove it entirely.
-Either it's bull**** and then the game will be cracked in a matter of hours.
-Or it's true and then Ubi is lying when they say that if online support is discontinued (to use the servers for new games) they will publish an offline patch. If Ubi decides to stop supporting a game I doubt they'll pay some coders for an extended period of time just to create that patch for a game that admitedly doesn't make money anymore.
