Default New patch is totally Stupid Stuff?

Now where did I ever agree that Ubi could put advertisments or images of OTHER Games on my system?


Ubi!! If you are not fixing SH5?
I DO NOT WANT YOUR CRAP ON MY SYSTEM!!

You have no license to do so and I DEMAND you remove them!!

As of today? I will begin to charge you for storage of files unrelated to a Game I bought and legally own.
Storage costs for unwanted files is $100.00 U.S. Dollars per Month.
Please kindly submit your payment TODAY or remove the unwanted files!!

Your License Agreement makes NO MENTION of UNWANTED FILES STORED on my system!!
As such?
YOU OWE ME!!

NOW PAY UP OR REMOVE THE FILES!!!

well, you have 2 choices..either focus on that crap, and quit playing SH5, or ignore it and go for SH5.

You would sit back and ALLOW this kind of intrusion?


How would you feel if I released a Tool for SH5 that planted UNWANTED crap on your system?

You and everyone else here would see me crusified!!
I don't care much about SH5 for a fact.
But when any SoftWare Company starts storeing crap files on MY SYSTEM?
I'm concerned!!

I'm 54 years old and a programmer!
I stared the FIRST ISP in my area way back in 1994!!
I sold that business and worked for Judges and Lawyers.

That don't make me the brightest guy on the block.
But when a Big Company starts dumping CRAP on your system that they have no rights to?

THAT IS AN ISSUE!!
Those files can be used to send advertisments to any system World Wide.
Thus saveing Ubi money as they COULD BE useing your bandwidth!!

If your fine with that?
So be it. But I am not happy with the whole 'patch' BS that I see so far!!

You're asking that on a forum full of people willing to beg permission from the company to play the game they bought. You shouldn't be surprised.

At 61 I see it as just the opposite. You're young enough to put up with corporate tyranny just so you can play a video game.

I do find that funny but it distracts from the main issue!
UbiSoft has taken you for a ride you did not agree to.
If your fine with that?
I can send you my paypal info and set it up in a way that everytime you post you donate money to me.
Ubi is doing that. And most posting here are Happy with that.
May as well get my pay day also.

I think that needs a post of the year recommendation...and I'm on the board! I don't think I can recommend those that received awards last year though....

Well if you don't want to read the whole thread and the concerns raised?
Give me some moments and I'll give you a download link.
Of course you can't whine when I take your system for a long drawn out ride!!
We had no agreement just LIKE UbiSoft when they use your system!
You Guys are REALLY ignorant of this type crap arn't you?
