I admit this post is not all of you friends....only the gamers among you will find it interesting,yah not so sure..may some of you who are not gamers also ....but i have to...fade up about the fucking ubisoft......they made prince of persia a disaster.....and now this.....they are fucking with assasins creed 2 too....!!With their horrible rotten and unnecessary DRM......
Now some of you may ask....What is DRM?
Digital rights management (DRM) is a generic term for access control technologies that can be used by hardware manufacturers, publishers, copyright holders and individuals to impose limitations on the usage of digital content and devices. The term is used to describe any technology that inhibits uses of digital content not desired or intended by the content provider. The term does not generally refer to other forms of copy protection which can be circumvented without modifying the file or device, such as serial numbers or keyfiles. It can also refer to restrictions associated with specific instances of digital works or devices.
In January 2010, Ubisoft announced the Online Services Platform, which forces customers to not only authenticate on the first game launch, but to remain online continually while playing, with the game pausing if the network connection is lost. This makes it impossible to play the game offline, to resell it, and means that should Ubisoft's servers go down, the game will be unplayable.What the fuck they are trying to do??!!
We don’t like DRM, and we’re not the only one.
But The bad news is Ubisoft isn't changing its DRM strategy that shackles gamers to the Internet. The good (????!!!!) news is the company is making peace offerings to PC gamers impacted by the recent server outages that made playing Assassin's Creed 2 near impossible.
Some legitimate gamers had surprising emails from Ubisoft in their inboxes after serious server issues with Ubisoft's f***kng DRM policy,which state:
"Following the recent temporary game server outages which may have cause disruption to some Assassin's Creed 2 players on PC only, we would like to reward your patience if you have experienced any problems by offering you a full downloadable game from the list provided below, completely free of charge."
The email links to a web site where recipients can enter a provided download code. The titles offered are Tom Clancy's Hawx, Heroes Over Europe, Tom Clancy's End War, and Prince of Persia.
"Tom Clancy's Hawx, Heroes Over Europe, Tom Clancy's End War, and Prince of Persia."
Damn... adding insult to injury?
To Ubi composers...they r silly game executives. This is what you get when you listen to a bunch of shithead lawyers in a room, instead of listening to the people who actually pay your salaries...you know, the people who buy your games?
What are they thinking??!!They can stop piracy this way...??!!There was allready a rumor that their server have been cracked by several cracker teams within 24 hrs....dont know true or false....
Lastly i am quoting a customer's comment from a certain forum....
"I will never ever buy anything from Ubisoft, and hope no one will either. They are now in the same “greedy crapheads” boycott list as Microsoft. What is there so hard to understand about that people will buy the game if they really, really like it?? Ubisoft made 155 € million Euros of profit in 2009. Aren’t they happy? Customers should avoid psychopatic corporations."
Ha ha...Who will save you now ubi...from being UBISOFT to UBIFUCKED??
