Assassin's Creed 2 and SH5 owners get free UBI game (merged) - Page 2

This is getting ridiculous. I have tried to download PoP about 2 dozen times. Sometimes it makes it to the first screen with the download button and sometimes it makes it to the next screen but it always ends with the blasted "Internal Server Error". But I guess it's worth a few laughs.

By the way, the game appears to be the latest version, the graphics look pretty good.

Upon clicking the download link in the email....

Irony, anyone?

I noticed that to, all in all this is almost as fun as getting the game. I haven't laughed this hard in a long time.

Better than nowt, kids will enjoy PoP :-)

Prince of Persia

PC Games

Release date : 12/12/2008

£5.99 from Game

SteamWake · 03-25-10, 01:16 PM

Man o man they could screw up a wet dream over there...

First they take two weeks to actually get the email out, assuming they were preparing for the onslaught. Then when the emails do go out the frakkin server dies.

I agree with the PoP section... thats just too funny ! We can complain about the bugs over there too.

Pal, you made my day...

I dunno it feels like a hit in the face.

"Thank you for buying Silent Hunter 5 (that was released to early) and we are sorry you couldn't play because our servers couldn't handle the load and/or was not protected enough against DoS attacks but here is a free game (maybe without online DRM) that you can enjoy!"

Eh I want to enjoy Silent Hunter 5 not some old game that they don't think is worthy of selling anymore...

That was my reaction reading the e-mail anyway.

Still waiting for a patch and will hopefully get some more time to play Silent Hunter 5 in the near future, haven't given up on it

I believe UBI made very well, to provide us a FREE game (for our patience). I have bought other games and I have dealt with many bugs, which in the end weren't resolved and now these games are rubbish. SO I CONGRATULATE UBISOFT FOR THIS GREAT OFFER!!!!!!!!!!!

Only the 5% Ubisoft user who were affected by server failure after the release get this email. You're probably not covered by this 5%

skwasjer · 03-25-10, 01:25 PM

Next to the executives, they should also fire the server admins and web developers. Such a joke...

What did they roll a random number? How in the heck can they tell when someones had a failure to connect? I can see how they know when you DID connect.

BTW I was cut off and un-able to connect on a number of occassions and did not get a email.
