Secondly, I am not remotely interested in what happened at the subsim 2009 meeting. It's of no relevance. I am interested in the fact that the Devs stated that the game would be more moddable than ever, knowing that it would be an online DRM game.

As for this statement....

'The chance of DRM will affect modding is so small its hard even to see it'.

I'd love to hear a technical explanation to justify how you intend to mod an online DRM game.

I believe that we may be witnessing the end of the Silent Hunter franchise......at least as we know it (Jim)
1) Yes the devs are employed by Ubi, but their heart is with the game. That was the itend of my statement.
2) What happended at the meeting has great relevanse to understand and believe in 1)
Also, as of now, the demostration at the meeting, is the only one that has showed the new dynamics of the campaign.

As far as DRM goes. You will still have the local installation. Why would DRM keep track of all game files and not only the ones related to its base execution?
Its used to keep track the installation, so I think it will only keep track of key files that are needed for the game to run. Thats just my thought. It makes no sense to keep track of everything.
