New Details On Ubisoft's New DRM System. The Best Plan To Kill Piracy Is To Piss Off Your Customers.

What if 1990 NES awesomeness were to meet 2010's PC retardedness. That's what the opening skit tries to answer. I hope it makes you laugh a bit. New details are coming forward on Ubisoft's new DRM ( Digital Restrictions Management ) and it's even worse then we thought it was going to be. It now not only requires that users be online when they first start their off line single player games but now we know that you can not lose your Internet connection at any point while you are playing. If your Internet connection goes out at any point when you are playing or their master servers go down then your game will stop right there on the spot and will not let you play until the connection to their servers return. When you get a connection back then you don't get to start off where you left off, no way, you have to go back to your last save point. I see this as nothing short then a "hail scrube" (space balls) to their faithful customers.

@BigdogWitBigdog the last time i purchase game from steam or amazon.com(digital download) i had a problem which conclude me to pirating for a crack or non corrupted files, so imo, game that you pirate actually more stable than the legally purchase one.. i have 2 l4d(pirate and steam version) same story, so it's not cause the cost of it, the game can be like $10 or $3, if it corrupted by start or doesn't work properly that resulting need a crack, why not just pirate it first then buy it...

It's kind of ironic that Ubisoft is now implementing an Online Pass system that screws with people with used game sales, which actually, screws with people with new game purchases, since it devalues the game and you don't get any trade in value, which is vital for new game purchases.

Ubisoft can just go f_ck themselves in their stupid DRM and now their stupid Uplay Playpass online pass system.

In other words, their new Driver game is going to have a $9.99 pass. In other words: $9.99 bin.

in fact DRM will encourage extensive hacking, mofified rom that bypass the DRM system, only downside is i doubt those hack will allow online multiplayer

@BigdogWitBigdog Crytek WANTS you to believe that PC gamers causes piracy, which isn't true. What about people pirate games they already own? What about intrusive DRM?

[neogaiden]

probably any nds games are not even worth a penny. if they had a brain, they'd probably lay off designing last gen consoles.

I have to say, PC gamers disappointed me. I love PC gaming, and I don't wanna see it die, however if people continue to pirate on PC, it is going to die. Please, if you guys really love PC gaming, and want it to thrive, STOP FUCKING PIRATING! The more you pirate, the less developers wanna publish their games for PC. If you can't afford a 30 dollar game on steam, you should not be gaming. Not to mention the countless, amazing deals on steam.

although I hate the concept of 'always on DRM', just about a month ago, I bought Assassin's Creed II for PC, and surprisingly, not once did I lose connection. I was as surprised as the next person. I did hear that when ACII first came out, their DRM servers were DDOS'ed, so that means the concept of DRM fails.

ya bitch go pirates!!!!!!
