Crickey - if UbiSoft sold light bulbs they would probably make the maufacturer encase them in non transparent material "just in case" -so is this the same for all new games being released from now on?

Ubisoft just continues to show why they are hated so much.

not only did UBISoft destroy Silent Hunter Series they also Destoyed the Rainbow 6 series, and i hear countless other PC Only titles.

It makes me wonder why did 1C sign up with UBISoft for CoD???? it is asking for trouble and makes no sense to a gamer.

I was hoping i could buy this Sim now, and just buy a GTX460 1GB G/card to replace my ageing 256mb X1950 Pro, which then would bring me above the minimum requirements as i have dual core 2.4 processor. I cant afford another pc yet to get a faster processor, and probably wont be able to for the next 6 months. So my small outlay for a new g/card was meant to enable me to fly for now. But now, with the epilepsy feature, being proccessor intensive, i might find i still cant run it???

IIRC the publisher "was found" in October last year.

Lawsuits are killing off far more than games. It's complete madness. The West really does deserve to fail.

This is horrific news. I have good hardware. I don't have epilepsy. Cannot stand low or uneven framerates. I don't want to edit an .ini file to turn off a filter but I guess I could go along with that solution, if it was there. I cancelled my pre-order. Will wait around and see if issues like these go away. Hoping for the best!

UBI's "Silent Hunter 5" was a sim I was looking forward to greatly (bought 3 and 4). I cancelled the pre-order when I found out about the constant-connection-to-UBI-servers. Rise of Flight I also skipped.

I try to judge fairly and see things from their perspective. I think UBI as a publisher has lots of money, brings us some good titles/franchises, but ultimately stand out as being incompetent. The marketing section seems to have no clue to how the market will respond to their bizarre decisions.

These kind of thing purely a no-sens, The statistics are that there's about 40 millions in the WHOLE WORLD !!!!

Ubisoft will perhaps have few hundred (very optimist) more epileptic customers, but will lose Thousands of long time customers due to the obviously growing of the PC performance needed.

If it seems like,

"- Ok looks at the nice little green label on this car, it respect the environment
- Oh ! Great ! I want to buy one !!!

- Ah, but to drive it, you have to buy this and this and this and this ..."

You'll totally wrong, players don't need labels, they need to have efficient publishers, who know of what they're talking about ,what their decisions will make them appreciated or not.

Actually, Ubisoft is one of the most gaped publishers with communities, always looking for something "new" but they don't understand, that if their technology are new, our isn't, and people won't follow them because they simply can't .(K, ubi give me €Billion, and i could install my personal high speed internet)

As Oleg told us, it's the new standarts of the simulations, but did they(ubi) ever see what an aerial simulator require, to work ? This not a classic platform game for casual players, neither a burnout-like game, it requires an comp with complete good equipments.

Well that's a part of i wan't to tell for money brewers at ubisoft.

PS: don't forget the Guide dog with the collector edition, You never can tell....

This whole thing is silly and I'm not buying that I can't be made optional. This is the first time I've heard these types of measures are being implemented.
