If Ubisoft enables some kind of chat (youre online anyway) than i will even buy 2 copies

Definitely a Ubi employee.

Nice try mate, but I have as much dislike for EA as Ubi. In fact, I can't say I like any of the major publishers.

Nah, just naive. He`ll be whining just like the rest of us when his connections fail and he has to wait hours to get back up then when he phones UBI tech support he gets ignored.

Of course, by then he`s given them his cash and it`ll be too late.

Which proves nothing to me.
UbiSoft themselves said they would interrupt the game at a certain point if the connection is lost so maybe the implementation is just not complete because it is a preview copy (like it could be with AC2 as well btw) or they have a certain threshold for disconnect times which is nice if you have smaller connection issues but wont rescue your day when UbiSofts server is down e.g. for maintenance or whatever reason there is.
And then it still won’t change that your are dependent on an UbiSoft service even for SP experience, it won’t settle down any security concerns and it certainly won’t re-establish my costumer rights.
So I don’t give a damn, it’s there so I don’t buy SH5 and still laugh about Ubi if it gets cracked.

Btw. is Neal writing a preview?

I just visited Ubi's AC site. The people there are bitching there, too.
I guess, the Ubi forum Gestapo can't deal with the traffic.

Maybe Darkreaver should take his sunshine pump to treat dissidents at the jolly Ubi forums.

I got a good laugh out of that one! Honestly, rose tinted glasses do not have the ability to change reality, only your perception of said reality.
