I won't buy this game until they remove DRM, period. I have little interest in working my ass off on a mission only to have a brief connection loss to kill my game. SH4 is good enough for me.

I'm sure everyone here will care about your decision and also was a very important announce to make on a topic about the patch delay.

Back on topic, guys.. that news is only about the german patch, not the english one, so don't start the panic and spread false news.

Well, If Im in America and installed the bought copy here but installed the german language, can I still download and apply the patch for North America, or need I uninstall and install the game in English? God I hope not...can't imagine it would affect anything, but one never knows.

I think there will be a unique patch for all versions like the v1.1.5 was.

So time to wait for the next week for everyone.

Without wanting to sound too annoyed WTF does "Unexpected issues with localization"... mean. ................. surely they knew what was going on rather than wait until the day of release.

Not F*%*$*& impressed UBI

Speaking of not spreading false rumours; how do YOU know this delay isn't across the board? It's 12:45 in Romania on Patch release day and there's no sign of it here in the UK.

Because is way beyond my imagination that a major patch delay announcement would be made buried inside a minor thread only on the german forum. Period.

If this would be really true, then UBI is the biggest looser game company ever in the history. A patch delay should be a big sticky thread on the official forum and also an official announcement on the SH5 web site.

Localization issues means that some stuff in the patch are not translated correctly or are not yet finished, so is normal that the german patch would be delayed.

For the first time in the history of SH5 development, Ubisoft tested their software and delayed the release!

We all should mark today as red in our calendar

What's the big deal guys, just 2 weeks of delay, is SH5 your only hobby?
Plus, more things were added to the patch, and new tools/abilities for modders, so no complaints from me UBI, keep it up

Default Haven't Loaded It Yet

DRM? I remember the complaints about SH4's security software. I've bought SH5 and will load it when I have time to really enjoy it. And with the expectaions that it will be improved for many years of play with the Modders help. They haven't failed us yet.

Default Feeding frenzy

Swirling around the DEV team, who are treading water frantically, the players snap and snarl at each other like vicious demons.

Every word, every utterance, indeed every ripple in the surface of the SH seascape, caused by the struggling team in the center, causes such a hue and cry that distant thunder is drowned out.

From the center of the mass comes an object, tossed off into the distance. The throng is drawn to it, temporarily abandoning their angry threat. The thing gets tossed from hand to eager hand until finally one lucky devil has it long enough to identify it.

Holding it aloft, he yells to the mob "Tis just a rumour!" The angry dennisons of the deep return to the DEV team and growl and cry loudly. "Give us the patch!", they howl.
