i will buy this sim, but i'll probably be pushin' 50 when i do - please take into account how long it has taken SH3 to get to the glorious game/sim/passion that it has become; some idea how old i am now

sarcastic remarks welcome

Total fiasco, no doubt about it.
I always believed that in a couple of years we could play SH5 with some kind of Super-Mod and it would be a great subsim, right up there with SH3+GWX.
But now, I'm even doubting that. There's a limit to what modders can do, so if this game doesn't get patched properly there might be some hard-coded holes they won't be able to fill.

With this kind of DRM, I will never buy *any* game.

But don't tell her I said that.

No Dear, I'm not on the internet!

I see that about 25% have voted as I did.
I'm suprised, figgured the haven't and not buy it crowd #'s would be less. Not sure if being stubborn is a blessing but I've come here still in hopes that Ubi would have caved by now, but I'm loosing faith in that fast. Maybe I'm a minority about it but damn them for a policy that keeps me from enjoying the bugs like the other 70% here Þ. That's ok summer's up soon and there's tons of **** to do nowhere near my PC.
Good luck with the bugs, hope the issues that seem to be stomping the game get resolved for those who wish to enjoy it.

Well while I have lost all faith in SH5 it did do one thing for me. It turned me on to sh3 and sh4. So all hope is not lost. I have since unistalled sh5 from my computer though.

Nah, all is not lost Danurve. Remember how long it took to have starforce dealt with? (IIRC it was a couple of years.)

Of all the things wrong with SH5 (and there are MANY things wrong with it) the only true show-stopper in my opinion is the DRM.

The DRM has to go... and I believe that it, and other such paying customer-punishing intrusive measures will eventually go the way of the dodo bird.

I totally agree

Me too! The OSP DRM is the enemy. Totally unacceptable.

While I applaud your efforts to do something, people on this site sem to be stuck in 1996 and think that Ubisoft will actually read your angry emails and letters.

If you think that and you bought SH5 you're just a fool twice over.

So assuming you do write a nicely worded letter explaining in clear, logical reasons, do you think that 1. Anybody in position to make decisions on company wide corporate policy will even know, yet alone care?
And 2. do you think yours won't be drowned out by a thousand 'OMFG Teh Azazinz Kr33d nd SPl1ntR Ce11 G@mez t0taLLy SuXX0rs cos 0f Uplay ROFLCOPTER BBQ' emails?

Wake up...

Kpt. Lehmann · 05-14-10, 11:14 AM

Well Yak, given the alternative that you suggest is to give up, adopt a defeatist view, and simply accept 'death by ROO ROO' without lubrication...

... Making a lot of noise has the potential to change things for the better.

I agree! From your lips (fingers) to UBI's ears. Let's hope that will be true and sooner rather than later as I would like to purchase this game.
