I hope that "internet connection required to activate game" doesn't mean it's required every time I play.

I don't have a reliable enough connection for that.

I think it MAY mean it's required once you ACTIVATE IT not TO PLAY. So one time internet connection, validate the CD key whatever the game needs to communicate to the UBI servers and that's it.

It won't be a INTERNET connection only play game that's for sure. Look at the success UBI had with Silent Hunter 5 or 777's Rise of Flight. All of which now contain offline modes.

Don't worry about it mate, you're fine.

The box with 'internet connection needed...' text looks much too big.
It looks like the health warning on a pack of cigarettes.

Yes,but people are stupid,and will still buy a game,then moan about needing to connect to the internet to activate it.

I don't see a problem with online (internet connection) activation as well as online (internet connection) uninstall for offline play and verification check each and every time for online play.

well. If its one time activation online im ok with it. If it is check everytime you launch, well then im over from "this one i need to have" to hmmm maby i get this one.....

I like playing games, sometimes with my work (when traveling) there is no internet to use, and this is where SH 5 died for me.....I be realy sad if the same thing happens with SOW....

One time activation....nooo prob.....

Online for game launch......hmmmm might be a prob....

My 1½ cent....

People are taking computers everywhere with them these days. It's not certain they will have internet everywhere though.
