I was maybe in an more "advanced" state of anger than you are, I understand you, but after all those anger feelings will pass, there will be light and peace ...
We still have modded SH3 and SH4, it's not that bad. And I am putting the emphasis on "modded", because the stock games were almost in the same league with SH5. OK, they were better, because they were at least playable from the start. Modders made them good games. And that won't happen again with the SH5, from at least three reasons: the "old guard" of modders is somehow disbanded, they are sick and tired to clean UBI's mess all the time and the last, but not least, DRM will make the testing while potentially modding even more time consuming than it would be anyway. So, don't expect that you would have something like GWX from SH5 ... Just put the DVD in a shelf to be a reliable platform for dust landing (at least it can prove its use that way somehow!) or throw it in the garbage. I won't tell you what I did.
P.S.: About UBI explanation, I have trustworthy sources that whispered at my ear that they are just making the hackers their scapegoat, because it's easier and more convenient that way. I guess we know that throwing the burden of blame to an invisible enemy is always the first way to pass that burden of responsibility from your own shoulders. The problems are in fact related with their system only. No hackers in the area, this "statement" is making me laugh. If they've lost the respect for the customers, at least UBI have some humor and that's not so bad ..
