Ubisoft as publisher and required Internet connection, that are those things you promised, that will never happens in your games.

All this makes me very sad.
I believe the internet connection is just for initial activation, but I could care less as my computer is always on-line thru cable connection anyway.

I'm in favor of anyway they can protect their investmest as thats in my best interests aswell.

That's nice for you,

but other people don't have permanent internet connection and some have a very unstable or slow connection.
It's ignorant to pretend there weren't any problems.

Did I say anywhere that there weren't internet problems although I doubt they are as bad as some people might suggest.

Dont know if this was posted but Ubisoft just changed their DRM a few weeks ago. You only need to verify your game online now, after that you can play offline and do not need a constant connection. Was on PC gamer news.

Do you have to varify it online every time you play the game?

As Hecke points out, it's not clearly once only. Assassin's Creed 2 still requires you to be online every single time you play. So no playing that on the laptop away from home.

There's no point arguing or speculating since nobody know for sure. Maybe they only use the "always online" DRM for their A++ titles for a month or so, then patch it out. Maybe a second string title like COD won't have it to begin with. We're just going to have to wait for the official press release to know.

Honestly, I don't know what the executives over at Ubisoft love more. Intrusive DRM or denying the holocaust.
