We will never be proven innocent if you have to be online 100% to play the game.

Please read about what DRM actually is, or try playing a game that uses it, before you go comparing it to something like starforce.

Starforce was a licensing protection system, thats not what DRM is at all.

You're comparing 2 entirely different things here. There is no licensing with SH5. You buy the game, install it on your machine, create an ubi account, log in to the SH5 servers, start playing.

Its very simple and has many advantages such as streaming updates, game saves protected from your machine possibly failing, Ubi being able to seemlessly implement new modes without having to release expansions. It's very cool, most PC devs use it now so get used to it. A couple guys on a sub sim forum are going to change the way the industry is heading, sorry.
