Absolute non-issue for me. No lag, no problems with the online sync of savegames. No dropped connections (though I have a very steady net connection as it is).

Come on devs it can't be that hard to make the game do an autosave when connection is lost and pauses the game. When your connection is establish and you start up the game again it should resync with the server. If they put the DRM codes in the game this is what I'll expect the game to do. Maybe it is my common sense that is wrong.

Zero problems here. Completely unnoticeable during gameplay.

No problems here. I even re-installed to change the language, told it not to keep my saves etc on my PC and after I re-installed my saves and options were all intact.

Obviously some people are going to have problems, and I may be in the lucky low percentage, but if you do have a stable connection (not fast, stable) it should cause you no issues.

After installation the update worked well, but the gamelauncher refuses to connect to the masterserver - no play here

I hardly think four pages constitutes everyone who purchased the game.

You might want to ask the guy who posted immediately before you whether he agrees with this statement.

25 hours. So imho Ubis DRM wasn't aimed into piracy but secondary market. They shoot theyself into stomache.
