Default Nasty problem--help please

I have been playing for 2 or 3 days--no prob---but when I just tried to log on to play I was informed that I could not connect to Ubi.Coms master servers and to check my internet----this is functioning perfectly but I have now received the same message 5 or 6 times and no way of playing.
Any help or suggestions please---this seems to be the worst nightmare of this wretched on-line protection --a game I have paid for and used for 2 days......... now no way of using my own game.
Has anyone else met this problem and how can it be solved...Thanks

Known issue with UbiSoft's servers. They are down, so you can't play the game you essentially only rented. Nothing to do but wait.

Things will change or they won't have a buisness anymore.

Wait until RUSE and some of the other newer games come. Out if the servers can't handle SHV and ACII.

But since I won't buy anything more from them until they get rid of the internet connection garbage.. Then I guess I won't have to worry about those others games. Won't be playing them.

Even though I want them.

Assassins Creed 2 is suffering from the same issue...

Hopefully they will get rid of the pile of *^£$ DRM technology they are enforcing on loyal customers.

DRM has been around for quite some time now, i doubt they will get rid of it.......unfortunately.
having said that SH5 has already been cracked lol so it just shows it doesnt work. the pirates get an easy time and the paying customer gets shafted up the ass
