I agree. I think UBISOFT has been King of the Hill for too long.

Only time will tell if their Reputation is all that important to them.

It wasn't with a company like Imron and others.

The ball is in their court now. We shall see how they handle it.

SHV has only been out roughly 3 1/2 mo.

To second guess how they'll handle it is a waste of time and reminds me of a bunch of old ladies wringing their hands and fretting.

The game is playable and modable at this time.

It's when you can't logon and play is when UBI has some legal questions. to answer.

As far as a patch goes if, you haven't seen one by Sept ( 6 mo's ) you can assume support in that area is over.

My BET is a Patch that ends DRM and then allows you to play offline and online on theirs other servers by September.

Sounds about right. After the game has been out for 6 months, Ubisoft will have realized most of the sales they can expect from the game. Ubi wont want to keep up the expense of keeping servers online for SH5 forever.
