I will never buy any games that have this kind of DRM in it.
Why? Because the guys who pirate it will get a better experience than the guys who actually bought the game.
I'm not saying you should though.
The next step will be sending an anti-piracy correspondent with the game who has to watch over you when you play.

One could easily rape this person and put them in a basement.
ubi soft always reminds me of Rayman 1.
One of the best ps1 games ever. Didn't like rayman 2 that much or others.

God damn, fuck DRM. We need to go back to the good 'ol days of CD-keys.

Whatever they do, the hackers will most likely find a workaround for it.

Ding!, we have a Winnah!.
Once you will need constant network connection to keep the game. Once the connection breaks, you gonna have to rebuy and redownload. Hear my words.

And cracked within -10 minutes of release.
The best part is the harder they try and make a crack-proof game, the harder pirates work to make them look incompetent. There's plenty of games you've never heard of with shitty copy protection that no-one has bothered to crack, it's only when you announce it and make it seem like a Coup de grâce that pirates work the hardest.

You just made my day
I don't know why everyone is so against this DRM. Steam did exactly the same thing years ago. Granted, they got pretty much the same reaction Ubi is getting.
Oh, you might say that Steam has an offline mode. One that hasn't worked reliably for years. The one time I tried to use it, it didn't work, and I couldn't play HL2 at all until my connection was back.

Steam is better though because if your net goes while playing Half Life 2, you can still play.

This. And Steam gives you so much more functionality, like friends, chat and whatnot, that's why people accept it.
[QUOTE=MuTAnT;21303740]What's stupid though is that people that pirate these games just skip all this shit and don't need to stay connected to the internet while they play. So all you do is end up fucking over your customers.[/QUOTE]
Actually it still hasn't been cracked. I the reason I hate most DRM is because it does nothing to stop pirates, at least this actually works. Look at Crysis 2, notice how it is not a PC exclusive? That's because of people pirating the first one. If DRM like this can prevent piracy maybe Devs will start to view the PC is a profitable platform again and do more then shit console ports for us.

in other words, i failed.
Thanks for assuring that I will never buy a PC title from you Ubisoft. I regret buying Farcry 2 from you.

.
Only thing I bought and will ever buy from Ubisoft is console games.
I'd kinda love to see DRM as somewhat a competition to Steam (Which will never happen), that's when real improvements will be made.
I really want to buy R.U.S.E but with this..pff more like to buy Fifa 11 for that.
Oh my god, not Trackmania.

In addition to what has already been said (If your net connection flickers or dies, it doesn't boot you) steam also keeps all your games up to date and allows you to redownload them through the same program.
Keep fuckin that chicken, Ubisoft.
It won't improve. They'll just change it so the AC2 crack doesn't work with future games with a few file changes.

What? I've been using Steam for four years now and I have been able to use offline mode all throughout. I honestly think the opponents of the offline mode are either incompetent or have never tried it.
You have to be logging in once and have it save your account credentials. From there on out you can be offline forever (as long as you don't log out :downs:).
Finally, this system has been cracked and works on multiple games now. It's funny how the more money Ubi dumps into this, the more the pirate community attacks it (for free :c00l:).
