The constant internet connection has been dropped . You only need to be connected to log in . You dont need to worry about losing connection while playing anymore .

Nah, still haven't bought it... still won't buy it.

Though I'd be happy to put up a $30 bid for a platinum edition sans DRM.

Egosoft finally released a nice Gold Edition of X3 so I can finally play that space sim.
The box actually said "DRM Free" on it, just so I'd buy it.

As I keep saying, for me it was never about how well it worked. It's wrong to restrict a player from playing an offline game whenever he wants, period. That hasn't changed at all.

I agree with you 100% steve , at least its better than constant online connection . They have to drop the online thing one day surely .

As usual I find myself agreeing with Steve.

It's now available on Amazon for £6.79!!!

What's worrying is that anyone at UbiSoft could have come up with this crackpot idea (DRM) in the first place.

What's even more worrying is that anybody could have defended it it any way.

What's even more worrying is that anybody could still be defending it.

DRM=no buy as far as I am concerned. At any price.

I picked up a cheap copy locally and haven't decided if I'll install/play it yet.

At least it came with a bonus DVD to watch.
