This will continue until they decide that SH5 is not worth fixing anymore (not making money anymore).

Unlike before where we downloaded patches manualy (no point releasing small patches) but with OSP every time you log into your account. OSP will check for patches... So i think that you will see many patches ( build 1.112 etc.).

And im sure at somepoint they will release download content and addon packs for a price too. want a type IXX for $19.99 anyone?

OK this is just me guessing but i think its a high probability.

YIKES! I hadnt thought of that!!

I have Far Cry 2...and excellent sandbox game. Each time I start the game it checks for patches. It's published by Ubisoft and I don't understand why they couldn't have used the same approach with SHV. I would buy Far Cry 3 if it does not have the same DRM SHV is coming out with.

I have heard alot of people say they want more subs added in an add-on. Fair enough.

Lets say 6 months after release they add 3 subs in an expansion, and the box costs $30. I bet there would be a general "WOOHOO"

among those actually playing SHV (those who didn't buy it don't count, sorry

).

Now lets say you are the kind of guy who really only likes Type IIs.. we have a few people like that and I tend to be one of them (but I like VIIBs as well). Now you may say to yourself.. 3 subs.. $30. I only want one of them, why can't I pay just $10 for that one?

BTW, if you bought SHIV Uboats add on, divide that cost by the number of subs included and 1 patch (which was ONLY available through a purchase). You will then have a unit price for each of the items you bought in a bundled mico-transaction.

We have already been doing it for every game we have ever bought an add-on or expansion for, just under a different name.
