that and the fact that its naive to presume that a developer will support such online services infinatly for any title.
Mean what will happen if Ubi goes bellyup in a few years for example?
Dont think they will have time and the fund to make removal patch then :P
Or even worse, all that data storage and traffic will cost them money. So the longer we play the less profit they will make. Since the goal of any cooperation is making profit, its not unlikey we have to pay in the end for the OSP jsut to be able to play it.
There must be alot more of simular scenarios. Wich all comes down to that i dont trust any coorperation to provide such a system for free till infinity. And lets face these kind of games are still played after many years.
