Q&A about the new Ubisoft online platform

[GoldenRivet]

thanks for sharing!

PROS:

1. dont need the disc to play

2. can install on any number of different computers (work, home, moms house, cousins house, grandparents house etc)

3. Play from any one of those computers from the last saves position

4. No strict access rules

5. if online service is expected to cease for a title, a patch will be released to make it playable without the online requirement

6. Loss of connection results in a pause while a reconnect is established, if one cannot be established you can start from where you left off when it is established

7. save games are stored BOTH ONLINE AND ON YOUR PC

8. No monitoring software is included!

CONS:

1. You cant re-sell your game

2. If you buy the game and only then find out about the online requirement it is up to the retailer to provide a refund.

3. No offline option means people who have spotty access to the internet will have problems
