Default [REQ] disable auto save in campaign games

i wonder if it would be posssible to disable automatic save games when using the campaign.

this autosaves are killing the greatest moments of immersion, i mean what the hell did they thought interrupting the simulation with this stupid autosaves ,additional there is a very good chance for a CTD if in a hot combat situation

iam not shure but i hope that this isnt part of the DRM copy protection mechanism, and we are allowed to try getting rid of it

I agree, there is nothing worse then when you are just about to pull the trigger and game stops for autosave. Total BS.

I started thread at Ubisoft about this and it was removed with no reson given. Guess they didn't even want to talk about it.

The auto save feature is part of the DRM.

C:\Program files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft game launcher\ ............

Thats prob why your post was removed without explanation.

It auto saves incase your connection drops out.

So i doubt it'll be removed anytime soon, as doing so would be illegal.

it was just happening again...

...after one of the finest night surface attacks, where the torps find their assigned targets (shot from 3000 meters), turning away and watching nice fires, explosions are lightning a perfect enviroment... guess what destoyed all this again

...right a stupid autosave (made for the casual idiot ?) and ****, which lead to a CTD again

the soup iam using at current is very stable and performant, if those stupid autosave`s wouldnt destroy all

ithink ill quit this casual DRM crap, made for housewife´s and ****, it was crapy enough @release, got a chance and lift by mods, but this stupid DRM or autosaves eat my nerves
