why uplay is bad?

[lovingGamer]

I know that it is, but i want to know why..
I never before had uplay installed, and today is my birthday and i got Watch Dogs (platform: uplay)

Because it never fucking works properly and it's simply a thing that wouldn't exsit! 

[OfficialJsP]

its pointless and never works and emmmmmm its made by ubisoft

Just like Origin, it's just a store with a bad friends system and it often doesn't work. It's just useless.

At times I like Origin better then steam.

 

But I do agree, Steam has the best everything else, it's not just a store with some other random crap, which is what uplay is.

 

Origins getting better, but in most aspects isn't as good as steam though. I use Outcome though so I don't usually have to open origin save to download/install something.

because steam is just a better solution in every possible way

I do like that Origin sometimes downloads at 30 mbyte per second. Don't know how but it does.

I think that includes installation speed as well.  I was downloading titanfall on an 802.11g connection at 30MB/s.

That makes sense. I'm on a 50mbit per second 802.11n connection. And other times Origin downloads at 3.2mbps (slower than Steam btw).

Uplay is fine if you want to play games and stuff, it is just not too useful

I have Far Cry 3, Blood dragon and crew beta on it and had no problem with it

 

just do not expect it to be something like steam but still usable

[NICKT]

I personally wouldn't mind it just as a shop, but they, like EA, wanted a cut of the Steam pie so they made their own ridiculous front-end that does nothing but fragment people's gaming collections and split player-bases.

[BenD]

steam is the best, but i haven't had any issues with uplay or origin, but they (uplay & origin) have done a crappy job on something they could just copy off steam a bit

[Black_Vanguard07]

For me, I don't like Uplay because:

-Their servers fail HARD for titles at launch

-The fact that in addition to steam and origin, I now have to have a third DRM program running if I want to play my games
