Since C&C4 I have a principle
If game needs constant internet connection for single player- FUCK THAT GAME!!!
Even if it is good/anticipated game, fuck that!
Not going to buy it.
Not going to pirate it.
Not going to touch it by any means.
Not going to be anywhere near it.
And will avoid of thinking about it.
Because I learned this the hard way.
(I wish I had pirated C&C4, instead of buying that shit- to be honest that game had more issues than constant online requirement, but that wasn't helping either)
I may be only one consumer, but this is my way of showing middle finger to developers/publishers who dare to pull this off.
Who knows, maybe if there will be more people who act similar, developers/publishers eventually will get the lesson.
I understand online validation during installation, but now even that isn't enough.
Now you need to have constant internet connection, and if it isn't stable, your game will be unplayable.
What next? To play a game we will need to implant transmitter in the neck that will check if we are playing our game copy? And if someone else tries to play it transmitter blows up?
I bet if they could, developers/publishers would request such measures.
P.S. I don't get it. What's with the old man photos?
captcha: beats me
(yes this DRM reminds beating)
