How does Ubisoft repay this gift? By completely ignoring the community. Just like almost every other developer/publisher.

Where would it be? I don't know, I only know that when SHI came out and it was damn near perfect, there wasn't as many internets (sic) around as today, neither forums. And frankly, those "valid grievances" and "gifts" are mixed in and almost succumbing in what I percieve as also a lot of "crybaby didn't get his candy" bollocks. My favourite is stuff like people, who can't even tell starboard from port, want to sue Ubisoft because of a 70+ "buglist" where 80% of those bugs are things like the dive planes don't lower occasionally. In SHI you didn't even have an external view except the bridge from which perspective you only saw the tip of the bow. Guess what? Didn't break the game. There are more important issues around, namely the ones Neal has assembled in the 1.3 Patch promotion thread, but they often get burried below a lot of trivial issues.
