If it is political, then you're only hurting yourself, SH5 is amazing!
My reasons are purely economic. It costs ~AU$90 to buy and at that price the bugs and DRM make that a less than attractive outlay. Given the fact I also travel quite a bit the value is simply not there for me. I just spent 22 hours in planes and airports yesterday which was spent playing about 6-7 hours of SH3. Could I have spent that same time playing SH5? No, most of that time I was on a plane with no way of connecting to UBI's DRM collar.

I've already posted elsewhere that when the cost becomes much lower I'd consider getting it and will probably do so. By then I will have spent many more hours enjoying SH3.

I'm honestly not missing much in my opinion. Yes it has nice graphics but that does not make it a great game.

I obviously don't fit within your pre-concived ideas of a prospective SH5 customer.

Is there a thread anywhere in this forum that hasn't been hijacked by the DRM haters?

Just wondering....

Probably not, they seem to be everywhere these days, much like an infestation truth be told.

Actually this one was hijacked by a troll on your side of the fence:

If you're going to blame people for things, at least blame the right people.

Anyway...............


Back on topic.

Managed to take out a battleship whilst on the way to the mission area. This was the moment we surfaced (and I lit up a cigarette to celebrate). A beautiful morning in the North Alantic

Nice try, but you made the comlplaint, and you need to answer for it. No hiding behind the "Off-topic" card.

If anything, the "get out of jail free" card would be much more appropriate.

Not when the guy who is "trying to keep it on topic" did so by insulting and attacking people, and the wrong people for the wrong reasons to boot. And not when nobody wants to blame the guy who took off in the first place.
