that very well could be my problem right there.

I didn't install it into program files. I put all my games in C:\Games\

Well, whatever the problem is, my game is now completely broken.

Same problem here also.........freezing up at the synch screen. I don't think its our computers.........something at Ubisoft's end. I sure hope they get it fixed.

Ubi have said DONT install into C:\Program Files\

So you have installed it as recomended.

Since the update for the launcher a few days ago, im not getting any more fails to sync.

But..

I still can't stop it from trying to sync my saves. I only play on one PC i have no need for this "feature". Turning it off in the launcher does nothing on my end.. because the game still does it when it loads up.

Dont even get me started on the auto saves. It always seems to happen right when im in the middle of setting up my TDC for a shot LOL. Another feature of this DRM scheme.. it saves itself regularily incase your connection goes kaput.

Ah well. Atleast im playing.

I still can't get this game to run past the stupid syncing phase. I'm quickly losing all hope that I will ever get it to run and I am now on the verge of committing hari kari.

Can someone at ubisoft PLEASE HELP!

And another one on the list. Damn i could not resist SH5 because i love the games. I know it is stupid but i could not resist. Really great mess they provide with this "DRM".

You may call me stupid

"PLEASE WAIT UNTIL SAVED GAMES ARE SYNCHRONIZED FROM SERVER.."

Well you know where to find me

They're not worried about you because you bought it. They're more worried about people who didn't buy it.

I too am a victim of this problem. I went so far as to reinstall everything. Twice.

UBI will not answer my emails. I feel like a moron for having bought this game. BTW, it worked fine for 3 days then saturday it started freezing up and hasn't worked since.

I will never buy another one of these games.
