If Ubi think we're all pirating scum and that there's no viable market on the PC, wouldn't this only push their ignorance further?
See, I'm really conflicted on this one. On the one hand, they sort of deserve it for being twits about it, but on the other, this does back-up their point with barely any twisting of the facts.
... I take the lives of a few to protect the lives of many. I commit acts of war to preserve the greater peace. I take no joy in killing, but make no mistake; I'll do what needs to be done. Because it's my job. It's my duty. My name is Sam Fisher, and I am a Splinter Cell.
It's their fault if people pirate it out of spite due to their terrible attitude towards PC gamers
On one hand, go pirates for showing them that DRMs really aren't all that rock solid.
On the other hand, I wonder if anyone's ever shown them that Xbox and PS3 users can pirate games too. >.>
On the other other hand, I wonder how this will go over.
Does this mean ubi will release it drm free? No? So it's just pointless willy waving by pirates then?
I'm failing to writing a blog, specifically about playing games the wrong way
http://playingitwrong.wordpress.com/
But this is what they use to justify their attitude, so we're only proving they right.
This is what i meant. If i remember correctly they whined about sales on pc,and if they ported game to pc,it would ONLY sell 200 000 copies,which is totally unacceptable for their standards.. Now,after six months they want to quick cash on us,releasing this even as they were bad mouthing us.. pff

This is in no way a victory at all, except for those who want shit for free. For those of us who want an important developer who despite some slips regarding PC gaming still release some pretty bloody excellent titles that I'm sure many would very much like that they continue coming to PC this is a kick in the balls.
Ah you're overreacting,they still release majority of their main titles to pc..

I'm not sure how this is a victory for PC Gamers.
Are we going to get UBI games, without DRM in future? I'd doubt it.
Are UBI going to be encouraged to improve on their PC Ports? I'd doubt it.
Are UBI going to have yet another anecdote, or more data, to point to when discussing the problem of Piracy on the PC Platform? Yes.
Will UBI have another excuse to half arse their PC ports? Yes.
Will UBI have another excuse to not port games to the PC? Yes.
Please, tell me where the victory for PC gaming comes from in this situation?
Yes. With shitty DRM that hurts legitimate customers, and usually a half arsed port, because UBI know that there'll be a heap of piracy on PC. Because... well, because things like this happen.
What people need to understand is,that piracy can't be stop,but what devs can do is make bigger effort in making their games more pc friendly,thats the only way in securing more sales on pc.
