Sorry but your wrong.... You can chose to not to upload your saves. But of cause this would limit playing (loading saves) from any of the other 99 computers that you've install the game too :-

Some people are inferring that your savegames are only stored online - that's not the case. You can set the Ubisoft Game Launcher not to upload your saves, and even if you permit it, it seems the saves are made locally first and then uploaded when you exit the game. Whichever setting you choose, you still need to be online to launch or play the game.
