If it keeps the pirates at bay and let's Oleg make a buck on this I'm all for it.

I agree and most people who are against any kind of DRM would sing a different tune if it was their money that was being stolen.

meh .. its Oleg that will lose out if UBI does their normal officious badly thought out intrusive DRM that treats legitimate customers like thieves.

The assumption that SoW is soooo wonderful that we will all buy it regardless of DRM is a very risky one.

DRM issues early in the release cycle of a new game can totally kill it.

It's funny you mention steam - as steam is the only way to keep me 100% from buying it.

I don't like steam all that much, and much prefer a hard copy, but had no issues playing Red Orchrestra off-line.

I actually like the ability being able to start any game without needing a disc, and the steam DRM suits me fine. I won't buy a game that requires an always online connection. That rule could be broken for SoW, although I would be tempted to get a pirate copy and paypal oleg the money instead.

They could name it "When sows fly over the Cliffs of Dover" for all I care. Game play and non-intrusive DRM are the key issues IMHO.

Seems stupid putting il-2 sturmovik on the box, makes it look like an addon to il-2, just leave it as cliffs of dover.

The internet connectivity with Rise of Flight works quite well. You do NOT have to log in On-Line just to play/fly in off line mode. When patches are released, Yes you have to log on to be automatically (and very conveniently) updated.
