I have wrong user and password from South America. DRM

Noren · 03-08-10, 01:15 PM

So its a global problem then, I wonder it its true that just 5% of the customers are affected - as noted in the offical explanation.

Decoman · 03-08-10, 01:17 PM

I just got a "Incorrect username or password" error

urfisch · 03-08-10, 01:19 PM

no, they just got the numbers wrong...95% were affected...

and its a shame how this company is lying at the people. its obvious how they fooled all of us...and they dont stop it. we need some legal action to get them on their nuts...

Actually it's 95% of the owners of SH5 and AC that are effected. But they only make up 5% of the total owners of UBISoft games.

Remember, people who aren't trying to play aren't being affected. It's like unemployment

Rickster1 · 03-08-10, 02:04 PM

Twice this afternoon cannot get SH5 up and running, this is ruining what is potentially a good game ( when modded) Going back to SH3. Ubisoft does'nt care.

Perhaps it is, but what they don't say is 5% of what. 5% of a million players world wide? ten million, a hundred million?

The bigger the #, the larger that 5% crowd gets.

And who said DRM was a good idea, this will happen again and again.

Juliano · 03-08-10, 01:36 PM

Just as predicted

This is an announcement concerning Ubi's servers' breakdown and how the incident affected ACII players. I sincerely hope that the representative's promise will be kept.

Earlier today, our tips inbox and the official Assassin's Creed 2 forum were set ablaze by incensed owners of the PC version of the aforementioned Italian revenge epic. According to numerous reports from prospective players of the game, Ubisoft's DRM authentification servers have crashed, forcing some players to suffer lengthy login periods when booting up Assassin's Creed 2, and locking some folks out of the game entirely.

A Ubisoft representative responded to a particularly rage-filled forum thread, stating "clearly the extended downtime and lengthy login issues are unacceptable, particularly as I've been told these servers are constantly monitored." The representative added "I'll do what I can to get more information on what the issue is here first thing tomorrow and push for a resolution and assurance this won't happen in the future." We've got a really great suggestion for how to make such an assurance: Find a less abominable DRM policy.

Maybe. On the other hand, i hope you're wrong 'cause i'd really like to buy and play SH5 some day.
