Interesting...maybe UBI softens up their anti piracy policy for other present (and future) products as well?
I have waited a long, long time for this news. I knew eventually UBI`s idiotic draconian DRM would be the failure of their game.

Now I might actually buy.

And if SOW has a draconian DRM like this I won`t buy, and I`ve been a long term user of IL2 as well. You can screw the customer for a while, but not all customers are idiots- Any company screws with them at their peril.
