Didn't DCS Black Shark work in the same way? If so what's the difference?

It looks like you have to install some tages (driver or so) stuff too.

I wouldn't have bought it if it was the former UBI DRM with constant connexion...
I don't like TAGES, but I'll do with it... I pre-ordered a collector

That's just worthless, I wish this game was released on Steam instead of having this dumb DRM system, it's gonna get cracked anyway, deal with it.

Not sure - SB Pro PE was never cracked either, afaik.

Had a look around for info on the Tages DRM.

Apparently Tages has been cracked a total of three times, but because of the way Tages' system works the games that got cracked were the ones where the devs didn't put much effort into implementing it.

The good news is that Tages seems to be regarded as being fairly non-intrusive.

Give me an example ?
Because Assassin's Creed 2 for example needed a permanent internet connection (if you have even a small desynchrnisation for 1 second, the game pauses)
But it was cracked... (using a virtual server on your own machine)
Every popular game available on Steam has been cracked too... (modifying steam's .dll)...
