I've seen this quite a lot in older games. Open manual to page X, Yth word in paragraph Z? Page Q, the number matching this number is? These are easily defeated by a piece of technology known as the Xerox machine (eh, these days, the scanner). It's just not effective, and the publishers know it.

Not that anything is really effective at stopping a determined pirate. These schemes may slow them down, but they'll get around them. All it does is annoy people who try to legally play the game.

D,R,M. One way to kill off a game!!!!!!!!!!!!!! well done Ubisoft.

My internet conection is very poor I get disconected often somtimes for days so I canot see me buying it.
I have enjoyed playing sh3 and sh4 even got a newer pc for it instead of a ps3 to my grand kids dismay as there is no simulation games on the ps3 .
Hope to keep playing and enjoy subsim forum for years to come.

Even though I am inclined not to purchase the game because of the other oft-repeated problems, at least I was willing to buy it eventually if some of those concerns were addressed. I won't buy the game at all until this silly stuff is dropped.

Not that UBI cares. I understand that.

When Neal does his review (After the game is released if Ubi keep up
their boycott of Subsim!), I hope the review is carried out on a PC that
isn't connected to the internet.

You're bad.

So it is currently 84% - no SHV Thanks... Congratulations Ubi marketing!

Could you imagine the reaction of wide gaming community, if this is Subsim pole?

kapitan_zur_see · 01-26-10, 03:19 PM

the whole news released these past days and the predictable devastating responses they were bond to earn from the community makes me think they're a bunch of BDSM lovers at UBI...

Sgtmonkeynads · 01-26-10, 03:24 PM

I hear they like to go around and just kick random people.

I'll wait until DRM is removed, no matter if it takes a year or more (or never).
My initial impatience faded away with the 1943 and Type VII flops, and this latest news about saves on UBI servers just was the last straw. Welcome back SH3 & GWX!

bigboywooly · 01-26-10, 03:33 PM

Hmmmm gets worse and worse
The VII only and a 43 finish were enough to lessen my interest in release but still pre order
DRM has reduced interest to zero
Pre order cancelled

The way you defend them I think they could sell you **** in a box and you'd eat it up and ask for seconds.
