ubisoft have applied this rule for the last 3 years how could the Dev's possibly overlook it. Incredible.

IIRC the publisher "was found" in October last year.

Lawsuits are killing off far more than games. It's complete madness. The West really does deserve to fail.

This is horrific news. I have good hardware. I don't have epilepsy. Cannot stand low or uneven framerates. I don't want to edit an .ini file to turn off a filter but I guess I could go along with that solution, if it was there. I cancelled my pre-order. Will wait around and see if issues like these go away. Hoping for the best!

UBI's "Silent Hunter 5" was a sim I was looking forward to greatly (bought 3 and 4). I cancelled the pre-order when I found out about the constant-connection-to-UBI-servers. Rise of Flight I also skipped.

I try to judge fairly and see things from their perspective. I think UBI as a publisher has lots of money, brings us some good titles/franchises, but ultimately stand out as being incompetent. The marketing section seems to have no clue to how the market will respond to their bizarre decisions.

2 Collectors Editions cancelled with GREAT sadness.
In the unlikely event that the sim is playable then I'll rethink my options but I can't risk £100 on a potentially unusuable game.

i would be risking a £150 graphics card upgrade for this game aswell as £35-ish the price of the game if it dont run on my AMD X2 4200+ processor. because i would only be buying the graphics card for IL2:CoD.

If anyone knows if my processor would be good enough can they please let me know, i have 2GB ram, and wouldve got a GTX440 card.

Sorry to hear that Lensman, I really dont know what to do, On one hand ive waited so long for this, and I love the collectors edition extras, But on the other it sounds like it wont run properly after some stupid decision by Ubisoft.

All i can hope is a way is found to get rid of this damn filter and return the sim to what it should be.

Many Many yrs ago I know carmageddon was forced to change the people into zombies and green blood to get itself released, Within 3 weeks there was a leaked patch from one of the makers that returned the zombies into People and red blood. Its happened before, no reason it cant happen again in this case.

God I hope im making the right choice.

Same for me and I unless I can buy a Steam free and filter free version of IL-2: CoD somewhere I will skip this one as well...

To bad UBI continue to act like morons, it affect us flightsim fans as well as 1CMaddox!
