Yeah. He says it's released on "Vierten Dritten", which is colloquial german and means 4th of March.

i think this is ubisofts biggest mistake i have played every silent hunter game that has come out starting with silent service with nintendo im a submarine veteran of submarine games but i will go down with my ship before i buy this title unless they allow an offline option i dont mind disc verification but offline play is a must and allowing to save the game to your own hard drive this is political suicide for ubisoft

My thoughts exactly. They're already acknowledging it's possible to do.

In spite of the handful of tech-news sites and blogs, coverage of UBI's DRM/OPM is still pretty small. I'm waiting for the outrage to really hit the gamer magazines and the game sites like IGN. Many customers don't read the tech blogs, but they do read game magazines and the game sites.

Thinking about it, what we should be doing is writing to the gamer mags and gamer sites. If the editors start getting enough letters and emails it very well might get their attention.

(UBI, just wait until the comments boards on the big game sites open after your new games are released! Probably a small percentage of potential customers read forums like this, but they do read those user reviews on IGN and other sites!!! Future customers should be warned of what your doing before they buy.

The real fun will start if Ubi's servers are unreliable, or people find their 'stable connections' aren't so stable or capable enough to give seamless gameplay.

i expect that will start happening around march 5th 2010

and get even worse as each new game increases demand on the servers

Obviously the UbiSoft guy missed his calling as a US Congressman.

He may as well end his sentences with... and everyone will love our new healthcare plan.

Well, given Ubisoft's history, they're prolly hoping for it, just so they can adopt the pirated files as the "official" fix.

Double morality has no end. Not even with Ubisoft

It's more an more clear to me that they are trying to stop the re-sales of used games rather than attacking the piracy groups.

They've managed to stop Hitler from reselling. That's a good thing, right? Right?

Wrong! Take a look here. There was an information transmitted with 4.7 times the speed of light. But that's OT
