on day of release, we compare the evolution.

on an nice excel sheet.

I thought this was the old poll

Whether opinions change, we shall see. Mine has changed, from the info I've found I can say DRM/OSP/Uplay (notice how the Ubies been changing names in a short period of time?) Suxxxx with more EXXXs as we discover more.

I don't think that ever in the history of marketing has a business tried to launch product features into such an antaqgonistic market.

Has Ubi never heard the golden rule that the customer is always right?

so you propose someone elses thread be closed so yours can take its place?

i can follow the reasoning but you are awful presumptuos to take it upon yourself to decide someone elses thread is no longer relevent.

by the same reasoning i should close this thread for being redundent and pointless.

so whats next, is someone going to do a daily poll and tell me i can close this one then someone else can do an hourly poll until the release.

My intentions two weeks from now are the same as they were three weeks from now...as they will be one hour before the game is released.

Nothing has changed.

With all the bad things said about SHV, DRM, online only. I fear that this could be the beginning Of the end, will Ubisoft make a Subsim again? I cannot see how sales world wide Will be that good. And all the polls on subsim does not look that good for the out come of the game.

My intentions are the same as before, until this online requirement is scrapped, I will stick with SH4 + UBM + Mods. However you try to dress it up, this DRM is an affront to PC gamers and the sub-simmer community as a whole.

I really want to like this game, and while I have a few worries about what this game is really going to play like, they would not have stopped me from trying it and maybe even liking it. However, the DRM prevents me from being able to buy it in the first place.

So intentions remain the same: I won't be purchasing it and the game will remain one I wish I could have tried.

I'm in the same boat as Schultzy: the always-on Internet connection DRM won't work for me, so adios, SHV -- that's another lost sale, Ubisoft!
