Driver is/will be start-up activation, but this is Assassin's Creed, so I wouldn't be surprised at all if they force always-on for it.Guerrillas in the Mist said:Is it going to have always-on DRM? Or do you "only" have to be online when it starts up.

Can't think of a Ubisoft game where I'd rather play online MP than SP.Castor Krieg said:Why would you get it on PC? I guess you could if SP matters to you, because MP sucks balls - 100K on Leaderboard vs. 1.2Mln PS3 vs. probably more on X360 (don't have X360 version). On PS3 I join all game types within 10sec, my brother playing on PC has sometimes to wait a few minutes.
SP is the only thing that matters to me really, and that will of course be far better on PC. Brotherhood MP was fun for maybe an hour or two, and unless Revelations has radically different MP, I won't bother with it anyway.Castor Krieg said:Why would you get it on PC?

dLMN8R said:Well, let's take a quick look at the numbers:
Ubisoft: First half - ~$127 million loss (after conversion). PC games make up 6%.
EA: Last quarter - $221 million profit. PC games make up 29% (non-GAAP), equivalent to the 360, ahead of all other platforms
Activision Blizzard: Last quarter - $335 million profit. PC games make up 7%, or 38% with subscriptions. Last 6 months - $838 million. PC games make up 6%, or 49% with subscriptions

Acheteedo said:Are you seriously suggesting that more timely releases would bring Ubisoft into profitability? Ubisoft doesn't have the Sims or a successful MMO, their lack of profits and low percentage of PC gaming income has nothing to do with a release date strategy.

Sportbilly said:That's OK, I've been fucking with Ubisoft for the last few years. Steam sale Christmas 2012 for AC: Revelations- you can't be bothered releasing on time/ stick ridiculous DRM on, I won't bother buying till the 75% discount.
Duxxy3 said:Obviously got delayed so they could remove their invasive piece of shit DRM and use steamworks instead.
