Ubisoft Keep Digging

Ubisoft has been digging for quite some time...

Ubisoft DRM Fiasco:  Allows any website to take control of your computer.

 

https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20120730/04291119876/ubisoft-drm-fiasco-allows-any-website-to-take-control-your-computer.shtml

 

Is Ubisoft so angry at the PC gaming community that they are willing to go this far?

 

The companies want people to use consoles for gaming only perhaps but it will not happen to take measures this under-handed is crazy.

 

They need to wake up admit that all Consoles < PC in gaming performance (especially UBISOFT) and get to the business at hand of either losing all PC customers and going 100% console.

 

EA years ago lost me as a customer Ubisoft is next I'll give up all Ubisoft titles if this keeps up.

Actually, EA has gotten better since Ubisoft went down the toilet.

whoever wrote the UPlay browser plugin likely got fired, or beaten severely for their stupidity.

 

also, EA is on the up and up since they finally started to admit their short-comings, and make real efforts to do things right.

NASA really should have hired Ubisoft then... Good guy Ubisoft: making space exploration possible for the low price of $60 for a broken game.

Who knows, maybe they can extract helium and hydrogen from digging into the Sun.

At the very top of my post I wrote

I know it's from 2012

Breathe

 

What next?  They scan for our hardware and tell us that it cannot install due to the GPU having more than 1GB of DDR5 ram :/

Your system is too capable sincerest apologies Ubisoft.

im sure it will be way before comcast. since ubisoft is using a tunnel drill and comcast is stuck with an excavator

Space Journal #1: So Apparently i  was dropped on the moon like i'm a mars rover, in a matter of hours i have found the transformers on the dark side of the moon. Turns out its not that dark since dem robots are filled with lights, i waved hi to the Russians on the space station, turns out all those stories about space finding humans instead of the other way around is true(soviet Russia joke). They threw me some Heineken beer and I've been sitting staring at the people of this forum and earth since.
