Is the connection requirement still active?

I was about to ask the same question.
Ordered SH5 today, 10euros ...worth the try, I think.
You should, too, in my opinion...it might work fine for you, just as it might for me haha.

I too recently ordered SH5..Looks like all those mods makes it worth purchasing but confusing as to which one's to d/l...Are there any large packs with most popular mods in it to save on figuring out which ones to get..

There are hoops to jump through to disable the cloud saving and it is not just a matter of disabling it in Ubiplay. I did that and it did not work, there is another step one has to go through which is listed in their FAQ and I can't be arsed to bother doing. They may say they relaxed the DRM but in reality it is still there unless you jump through hoops.

I though i would test this.
I changed my save setting to no online save.
Loaded the game
Pull out my internet connection.
Played the game fine. No issues.

Conection is only required at startup

To get updates, and keep the game on the cutting edge, DRM would be ok, but other games have online requirements, and still can play offline. What is wrong with Ubisoft???? I will not be so quick to buy anything Ubisoft puts out now.

The problem is that when I am home, I rarely have time to play. When I travel is when I have plenty of time. However, many of the places I travel to do not have easily accessed (or free) Internet. Last month I spent two weeks on a foreign military compound in the Middle East with only one "community computer" available with Internet in the Officer's Club. No wi-fi, nothing. Considering the short work days and lack of things to see and do, I had a lot of time on my hands. Aside from the gym and working on my sunburn by the pool, I spent most of the time watching movies on my computer (hooked up to my TV) and playing total war games (No connection required! Whoo ho!)
