You know, the more I read it, the more I am reminded of an MMO.

Except that most MMOs have downtime of about an hour a day and when you're disconnected you don't lose any of your progress.
Ubisoft couldn't even manage that on a single player game! Good grief.

A pathetic, and predictable, response from Ubi. Oh, really? You didn't foresee the majority of people who had the game would be playing on the weekend, and you weren't prepared for that?

All you had to do was call Blizzard and ask them when the peak times were for online games. No. Seriously. That's all you had to do. In fact, it was the least you could have done.

Then again, to be fair, given the laughable state of this arcade SubPg game upon release, no one with a functioning brain-stem should be too surprised you dropped the ball on this as well.

Think about this though... Ok... Two games so far are using this system. SHV and ACII. There is very little information passed from service to you in this game.. Not anything like WOW. But yet there servers can hardly handle two games that are not Multi Player. WTF are they going to do when the other games start stacking up the servers? They do realize that its going to cost them more money keeping these servers up and upgraded then they would of ever lost in Piracy. Which is why I bet the next step is Pay to play!

I hope that they fail and are out of buisness before that happens. I'm not buying another game from them ever with this system in place. And I hope others fallow suit.

What would make this even greater is if the return rate for both games are real high right now.. That places like Walmart and Gamestop drop the UBI line all together. I would laugh my butt off. They deserve no better.
