The thing is... those people wouldn't buy the game anyway, even without pirated copies, so it's no use doing anything to attract them. The only reason they would consider playing it is because they can get it for free. Either way, UBI doesn't get their money.

The people that there IS hope for are the ones who are "fence-sitters." The ones who might buy it, but might just download it instead for convenience. You could sway them to buy the game by offering incentives.

Or you could push them to take the pirate route by punishing them (the current DRM plan) for buying it.
