Questions About SH-5

Thanks.

So any disk (dvd/cd) that I buy now will be the gold version?

Sounds good.

I cannot say what happens with the download version.

Just to confirm with the dvd installation when Uplay logs you in and shows you your installed game you will now see you have the Gold Edition.

Uh-oh...

What is U-Play, if I may ask?

Is it required to run SH-5?

Hi Lanzfield

Uplay is your mandatory internet connection to run SH5.

The dvd installation when finished will open the Uplay website.

You will need a email address and password.

When you log in to your new Uplay account you will be asked to enter your dvd code that came with the disc.

Your email address password and dvd code locks the three together forever.

In other words you will not be able to use that particular dvd with any other setup.

When your SH5.exe starts it opens up Uplay and if you have saved your details your game will show and you will be able to start it.

My understanding was that you needed an internet connection the FIRST time you run SH-5 and NEVER again after that. Is this correct?

THEBERBSTER · 11-07-14, 07:23 PM

No, that is incorrect.

You cannot play the game without a permanent internet connection.

Thanks for all the info Berb. You are most patient.

Shame about the required full time internet connect. I thought they dropped that. Hmmm....have to reconsider purchase. It just rubs me the wrong way right now.
