I did buy it in a store, like almost anyone else, so it was printed.
And no, I won't print it myself and spend my own ink on it when others have it included. Printer ink is too expensive.

Lets hope this backlash gets some heads turned, but I doubt it will. Publishers seem to have a knack of having cloth ears when it comes to the consumer.

That's why I started this thread as it seems that complaining can be helpful sometimes: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=161357

It's nice to see that Ubi will take some serious flak for their serious incompetance about the whole DRM issue. What they do need to realize is that a lot of piracy issues can be thwarted by simply releasing a Demo. I know a few friends who only download games, play em for an hour and then decide if the game is worth buying or not. Some of them play it longer but still, a DEMO with full features and a single mission or whatever goes a long way in helping your game. I, like most people, choose to make educated purchases and video games are no exception, and it's very difficult to make purchases based off of game play videos which are meant to highlight the platform. SH5 is NO different, the absolute lack of answers from Devs about the game and almost disturbingly bad game play videos make this a close no purchase. I will probably buy this, just to see if all this negative press is well founded, I can assure you that a single U-boat game is already a turn off for me.

And to those who will simply buy console versions of games, please remember you are perpetuating the death of PC gaming and supporting what truely is an inferrior method of game play for the majority of games that are not FPS games or racing/flight simulators which seem to be the few games that excel on consoles. Thats my opinion, take it how you like, but I can't stand consoles.

I agree completely. Consoles have absolutely destroyed gaming by forcing developers to cater to the drooling masses in order to make money. The last straw was Civilization, a series I've played since the beginning, and which have always seen a new game within 5 years. Well, 5 years have soon passed, and not a single word on a new installment. Instead, they released some utterly cretinous X-box abomination, and now, apparently, a FACEBOOK version! Give me a break! If Civilization isn't a PC game to the core, I don't know what is!

Console players have lower intelligence, that's a proven fact.

They started to make more console games then PC games because of the piracy, how I wished that pircay didn't existed, but also without piracy they need to lower down the prices.

Console games suffer from piracy just as much as PCs.
