but with the hatred of starforce out there it seems they missed out on selling quite a few copys.

So what ? sometimes you just have to protect what is yours. Is like getting a lock on your door. Costs money, is annoying, is not good for yourself at all, and you might even get less visitors because that pretty girl from next door thinks you are not home and leaves again.

And I saw a pic of it on some site already cracked within a week after its realese.

True, the type of doorlock I have was picked as well, about 2 months after it was on the marked. So I definately gonna get rid of all my doorlocks, they don't work anyway.
Why not ? You stated yourself you have no idea how much SF gained/cost UBIsoft

Did we the paying customers win? No

Yes we probably did. If UBI makes more $$ the could charge less for the games and/or invest more money in the next game.

Did the hackers and the theieves win? Yes they ended up with a SH3 that worked better than our verision.
|
Yep, the thief that stole my brothere cdplayer also did win, he got one for free. So I say again. Lets get rid of all doorlocks !!

That is just plain wrong and we must not let it happen again.

Ah, I agree, the next StarForce must be better, less bugs, and way more difficult to crack. I am so glad that we agree afterall

Why make strong statement that you will not buy SHIV if it has SF ?
Because I am sure that when SHIV is released and there are no real problems with the new version of SF you will all forget about your earlier statements and simply go out and buy the game.

A little story for you!
I have 2 DVD burners on my computer working 100% perfectly fine!!
I burned at least 15 DVDs for relatives and Friends this Christmas with NOT 1 Problems At all.
meanwhile I had been having some problems hosting MP games on my other computer that I use strictly for gaming, any way I put SH3 on my server to host and was going to use a fresh install and NO mods to to try to figure out why my MP games keep crashing and now thanks to Star $%#ing Force all of my DVD burns fail 90%of the time and when I do get a burn with out failing the DVD is usually messed UP.
The good news is that I have my drive Ghosted and can restore it the the way it was before I installed SF and now It works perfectly the way it did before, and BTW removing the SF driver does not fix the problem.
So please quit sticking up for the anti pirates crowd because just like Green Peace they cause more problems for the law abiding than problems for the pirates!
This is a Fact because there is a No CD patch for SH3 that you do not have to have SF installed to play!!! so really the point. they are not going to fix it because if you listen to them there is noting wrong with it, If they wanted to do something they could with other ways other than SF but it all has to do with money changeing hand in the Executive lobby!
