Neal is right, all this is very suspicious. No Demo, no previews, "no comment" about DRM and protection until a few days ago, we can not resell the game...and so on.

It's bad.

I fear they (ubi) know they're throwing us garbage. That's why they don't give us a real preview. I guess they already KNOW a lot of us will be really disappointed in many ways.
But, of course, this would damage sales and revenue...so better let them (buyers) discover when it's too late.

Yes, it is possible. But very unlikely in my modest opinion. Ubisoft is a great company after all, if they don't have servers up and running to show their products one month before release, I suspect they simply have no "great" products to show.

Of course I hope I'm totally wrong..

well think about it for asecond, they need servers dedicated for all their new games now and not just for sh5 and i hear the servers have been going down at UBI a lot lately so its very possible they are in construction or a new large server system to handle all this new traffic and data storage with is quite a big deal so its not just putting servers in a room and plugging them in.


but like you said we could both be wrong and they just arent saying anything because its no that great.
