No ETA when they will be up and running? That is just plain wrong!

Happy to be SHIV player Well, mainly because my comp can't run SHV...

My opinion may be pretty rough but..

Only thing that they win with the DRM (or however it's called) is ~3 months without illegal and/or cracked copies of the game going around the internet. People who want to crack games and publish them have just a bit harder bean to bite but it isn't impossible. I bet that you can find working cracked Assassins Creed 2 from some site even if it uses DRM too.

SHIV + U-boot expansion perhaps? Cheaper and surely works without internet

BTW, about "Everything's down at Ubisoft", when their registration site has been online last time?? I've been trying to register there to play SHIV multiplayer like 3 months but no luck..

Suppose this is a good time as any to play some SH3 GWX, I kinda missed puttering about in a little type IIA.

Plus...it runs like a dream on my new system.

I just hope they get this fixed tonight so I can continue my campaign tomarrow.

After reading threads here and figuring that SH5 was finally worth a shot I downloaded it... and cant even setup an Ubisoft account to play the game I just bought... Classic

Call me Captain Obvious if you you want, or even Major Smartass if you like, but you shouldn't have had to wait to play a legitimately purchased single player game to begin with.

If you own the CD, and it's installed on your machine, there is no excuse for not being able to play it, whenever you feel like it. Regardless of what the status is of your ISP, it's upstream provider, whatever major backbone you cross, back down to ubi's upstream provider, ISP, and to ubi's servers.

Ofcourse I agree with that, I mean I never had any trouble with GTA IV. Even though the whole concept is a total disaster.
