We do not want StarForce in SH4!!!

[moose1am]

I don't have a CD that writes or copies disks so I don't have a problem with this. However I take great pride in having the best drivers for my computer devices. It should be a crime for a company to load drivers on anyone's system without permission. I guess they get by this by putting something in the Legal Claus that we all never read and have to accept to load up a new game or program.

Legal action would be moot but a boycotte and word of mouth is the best course. I dread loading anything new on my computer as I never know what all the programmer put on my computer.

I have had to reformate my system too many times because of faulty drivers or bad programs that changed settings on my system.

Thanks for the heads up about SHIII. I think I am going to skip buying this game due to this information. I was just waiting for the price to come down.

I purchased SH II and Destroyer Command and was burned once by Ubisoft when they promised that those two games would allow me to play them together online. I found out that it never did happen. So I have tried to avoid that company ever since. Fool me once shame on you... fool me trice shame on me! I have read all though this thread and I don't like what I have learned.

It's too bad they can't just use copy protection schemes that don't ruin our computers.

Not sure if all of you have been keeping up to date with things.
Starforce has a lame conntest on their web page now that is impossible to win. It's just plaine stupid for even pulling this so called contest.
Drives that die I believe, die because Starforce drivers check the drives often and in some cases cause some kind of conflict on some cdrw drives. HIgh rpms on my drive is what I first noticed. Then after some time a complete drive failure.

As far as SH 4 not having SF???
I would agree it would be in UBI'S best interest not to have it but use some other copy protection instead.

I have some news I can't totally share with everyone ...But SF is and will be undergoing some changes. Will these changes be for the better? Word out is yes. But they have already changed to many peoples minds out there int he gaming world and I doubt that to many fans will ever trust them again.

Anyway....as far as SH4? I think Ubi willnot get the hint and still use SF in the game.

The only way to get the word to Ubi is to write their tech support.

If anyone needs info on that just PM me.

I continue to send Ubi info and letters from all of you with issues and gripes.

So please if you have never sent a letter to Ubi do so now. Or send it to me. Personal info will validate your letter more so if you want to make an impact don't leave personal info out. Name address and so on.


I will NOT give this info to anyone except Ubi and they will keep it confidential too.


Thank you !
