To be honest, I am not happy. I still think that this specific DRM is a shame and a slap into the face of the honest customer. But I cannot say that I am happy about the fact that others can't play their legally bought game.

We all knew from the start that those without a reliable, always-on connection would be left out. Who could know that Ubisoft would not be able to provide constant service?
Ok, some of us naysayers painted pictures like that but, to be honest again, I wouldn't have thought that the DRM-Service would go down for hours on end.
I thought that you would get an occasional Server Maintenance here and there, but not complete outages for hours.

Of course it's the Hackers fault who attack the Ubi-Servers. Well, what else should Ubi say?
"Sorry guys, we miscalculated the server load" or "Sorry, that DRM was a bad screwup" would certainly be nothing that Ubi would ever say.

I don't know if it's the Hackers or Ubis fault. I just know that honest people paid money for a game they cannot play when they want.
