Rise of Flight loses its DRM!

[seaniam81]

Hello fellow skipper. I bring good news. Rise of Flight is getting rid of it's DRM well sorta. Why is this in a SH5 thread? Because Rise of Flight is a game that must be played while connected to the company's servers even on SINGLE PLAYER! Sound familiar?

Well the guys at neoqb listend to what the community, market trends and what the polls said... so at the end of February, they will remove the need to log in to play single player. The full info is in the second post found here http://riseofflight.com/Blogs/default.aspx But I will quote it...

We've also been checking out network stats and market trends. As a result, we came to the conclusion that you all needed the ability to fly without a permanent internet connection (in some game modes). A network connection will still be necessary for new user account and profile creation. And, of course, multiplayer and a few other game modes still rely on internet access. But now, if your provider is down, you have insufficient funds, or you just plain hate to log into games all the time, you will be able to fly internet-free in single player mode or in the new 'Quick Mission' mode. We hope that this modification will ease your minds about personal intrusion and internet provider costs. After all, we developed Rise Of Flight to help you escape those every-day, mundane worries and just let you fly carefree!

I hope UBI pays attention here.

I will now be picking up a copy of Rise of Flight once they release the patch.
