Stepping away from "SH5"'s DRM for a moment

.
Just wait for the screams and howls that will erupt when Oleg Maddox releases "Storm Over Britain". Previous "IL2" titles have of course been published by Ubisoft and if the DRM isn't addressed, there certainly will be a storm.
Back to "SH5", yes I bought the game and am enjoying the early Mods already published (thanks guys). A long way from being a complete product, however.
Ubisoft really should look at the business models of GFWL and STEAM (yeah I know, they have their faults and detractors), if anything at all. If they want a direct delivery system, which UPlay really is then they need to remove compulsory online connection at all times. As a DRM solution it is questionable at best (still waiting for Ubersoft to admit the game has been hacked).
