Ouch, 150 reviews, and it has a 1.5 star rating, with 130 one star ratings alone. I wonder how many of those people actually bought the game.

Yes if patch 1.2 solves a lot of the bugs and missing features we should perhaps try to "re-dress the balance" on Amazon or it may indeed be the end for the series.

a big amount of these reviews are quite elaborated and (sadly) only a few adress mods as solutions to some bugs.
I would assume the vast majority has bought the game ...

Reviews are marking the released game... mods or would-be mods are not considered.

The facts are:
- Review marks are DISASTER.
- It faced a sharp price drop in THE FIRST MONTH of release.

So these monkeys would rather face "bargain bin" destiny in a month or two... rather than removing DRM.

Wide community and pirats have already forgotten this "simulation"... so what is the goal of DRM? To keep it's traditional buyers away from Silent Buger 5 ?

Congratulations Ubi...

you are right.

but I wrote about the buyers' feedback at amazon.de - the people tell from their own experiences with the game (and just a few had modded versions). and these remarks are disastrous.
