I will open the game, install it and than play right away, my router is connected 24/7 anway and i think about 90% of all people have a permament connection too.

So, where is the drawback? i buy this game to have fun, because i love submarine games and i am able to play it...thats the only thing i want.

Only problem that i could see is that to many people are buying it and that the server will crash because of it.

i would say after 2-3 days the server will run 100% stable.

i just hope that we are able to chat in some global chat...because all people are connected to Ubi anyway...wouldnt this rock?! Chat with other people while you are sailing around! brag about your newest kill!

i also think that this copy proctection is a good way to go, its virtually not crackable, because the game needs an active connection to a server to work

Edit: And no, i dont work for Ubisoft lol

You sure like being led by the ring in your nose don't you.
