ETW was awful and NTW was just ETW 2.0 the FIX, the game that SHOULD have been released in the very beginining a year ago. but NTW buyers are just paying twice for the same thing. At least your consistent, I guess in that you`ll take DRM crap from SH5 too. All draconian cheating game companies are safe with you.


The days when i used to be so excited about a game that i couldn`t sleep at night are long gone. I have seen far too many disappointments and this 24\7 DRM just helps me to be so unexcited a nurse would have problems finding my pulse!

This isn`t a hobby. It`s just a game I might or might not play.

What's funny is that very few people seems to be really interested in SH5...

...and there's nearly 33 500 posts and the game is not even release yet.

I was exited, before the ubisoft announcement.

Now I'm only curious about when they gonna remove it.
And if they have removed it, THEN I'm going to be exited.
Meanwhile.... I'm playing my fresh new SH4 gold without DRM

However don't expect me to believe everything you say, show me some real evidence.

i posted a graph that shows internet speed (average for each county) isnt that enough proof for you???

But if thats not enough :-
The crap internet speeds in New Zealand youtube video =
This was a local test... imagine how much slower it is to talk to the US or europe (which is prob where ubi's servers are).

also:-

New Zealand internet, why so slow and expensive

To maximise profits, ISP’s purchase a fixed amount of traffic from the Southern Cross cable (the connections that allows you and me communicate with the rest of the world via the internet) and then unfortunately tend to over subscribe that line and generally neglect to increase that traffic as the lines fill up with customers. The end result of that is when 3:30pm hits and all the school children get home and begin updating their Bebo and playing their favourite Youtube videos the internet slows down. This is the major reason why ISP’s start out being so good but as their popularity increase their broadband speed decreases.

and if thats not enough proof then i suggest that you might want to google

Look at your graph: it says ''broadband'' ...as far as I know broadband is not the only way to access internet...(I don't even have broadband myself)

About your video, I see something made by someone and not a serious documentation that describe the global situation in your country as a whole.

About the other link, again only about broadband.

Anyway... nevermind.

Hi Meo,

here's a link about the state of Britain's broadband. 'Broadband' cover optical, cable and copper cables. But in some places there is only the choice of broadband over copper and it's not always good quality copper either. I'm not talking remote areas here, I'm talking captial cities.

As you can see, the pledge is to get a minimum standard of 2 meg for all, so that does corroborate jwilliams' graph for the UK.

/sigh.

New Zealand's covage of cable and satalite is limited. Guess counties with small populations dont have the resorces. In time NZ internet will catch up with the rest of the world but until then. it will be slow.

I cant see any other way to prove to you that other counties dont have the same internet speeds as you. this will be my last post on the subject.

Ok, no offence but I fail to see what is has to do with my previous posts.

I never said his graph was wrong, I said it shows only broadband and it doesn't show the global situation of internet accessibility.

The point of all this is that if the internet connection speed (and stability) required for SH5 is not at the reach of the large majority of PC gamers then yeah it's crazy, but I would be somewhat surprised.

Nobody else gona post it so I guess i will..
