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

Athlonic · 03-25-10, 02:22 PM

I've got this compensation too.

This gift is welcome ...

I wonder if I can give them this offer back ...

and ...

Get the "famous" Silent Hunter 5 1.2 patch ?

So actualy better than nothing.

And I am sure the 500 internal errors are due to those nasty Pirates whos doesn't want us to have Ubisoft compensation because of their DOS attacks...

It`s a nice gesture of ubisoft.

Thank you for that

I guess it's a nice gesture. Would rather have had a discount coupon for a game of my own choice or yes, a more complete SH5...

It seems I will get to know the exciting world of snowboarding, as soon as the server lets me download it...

There's a lot of other titles that would have made a lot more sense than Prince of Persia and a snowboarding game...

Dawn of Discovery
Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X.
IL-2 Sturmovik 1946
Imagine Fashion Designer (which somehow includes 'Mild Violence'! Score!)

Lots of other more "genre appropriate" games are available from Ubisoft really.

I really can't believe this... here's the list of games that ASSASSIN'S CREED 2 Players were offered:

FU UbiSoft... They get 3 military game options and we get a god damn snowboarding game?

With a 10GB monthly download limit on my broadband, which is already stretched to the limits, I'll have my free game downloaded by about Christmas, I think!

I feel the choices are poor in comparison with those offered to AC2 players, but having played a lot of Tomb Raiders over the years - but no Prince of Persia games - it's about time I tried one, so it's fairly welcome. Not so interested in snowboarding but looks like it's a kind of 'MMO' snowboarding game from the blurb on the site, with all your friends present in the same world if they're online (though I don't have any friends with that game!), so will at least give it a look before I commit. Maybe those that pick it can make a Subsim group and hit the slopes together

Now THAT is a slap in the face to any of us who paid for Silent Hunter 5! (Hey, Ubisoft...we like military games. I know SH5 barely qualifies, but did you even consider your customer demographic for this genre?)

Is Ubisoft now run by Dunder Mifflin/Sabre (the Office)? I swear that a sitcom writer could not have come up with better material than this. No way.

Getting the download error

.

If it carries on going this way for UBI, we will all be sitting in the boardroom soon and then we can kick DRM out

Nice Gesture all the same though a 1.2 Patch and some official words showing us they are still interested in bringing this sim up to a good standard would have sufficed.

Armistead · 03-25-10, 02:54 PM

Prince and snowboarding, I think I would've been insulted..

xboxer · 03-25-10, 02:56 PM

I rather they fix this damn game than get a free and useless game. Unless it is Assassin's Creed 2......

Yes, but AC2 will have the same issues as SH5, insofar as downtime is concerned.

Heretic · 03-25-10, 03:04 PM

Just got the email. I'm not particularly interested in either game, but I do appreciate the gesture and think they deserve some credit for making it.
