Can you imagine if CoD needed a permanent internet connection?

ROFL well at least you admit ignorance , seriously thought sh5 was ruined by the connection requirement, which is rather sad to see a genre like that ruined and it's one of the reasons why i have been camping in steam related threads as Ubis mad drm could be the next choice and then we would really see a verbal riot...

SH5 was firstly destroyed because it was a& crappy game.
DRM comes far second as a reason.

Agreed.


SH4 was a disappointment, SH5 a total failure.
Even if the game was sold for 1 Euro and without a copy protection, it still would have failed the way it did.

Blaiming the copy-protection for this is total nonsense. If you want to make a comparison, take a look at mainstream games. Battlefield, Call of Duty, Crysis, you need an online-account for all of these games and still they sell like warm donuts. And most of the latests shooters also need constant internet-connections or they even don't have a singleplayer mode.

You really want to claim that they just can't be a success, because they use a DRM some people don't like?

SH3 with mods has yet to be beaten or even improved upon, both successors didn't come close and the permanent connection wasn't an issue (Assassins Creed 2 required it also but that did quite well) due the fact that I never turn off my router (my XBOX360 nut of a son would probably hire a hitman if I ever turned it off)

Well one reson i never even looked at the game was because of permanent connection ,so it got a foot in the door
