By failing to anticipate the server demand on a hacking-themed game they have been over-hyping for months Ubisoft has organized a DDoS attack on themselves.
They have hacked* themselves and prevented people from playing a game about hacking.
All on a system called uPlay which currently isn't letting anyone play.
Meanwhile the real hackers have cracked the game, and are distrubuting it via bittorrent where people can download for free and play with zero issues from day one.
Is this real life?
*technically not a "hack" but close enough.

I went to Gamestop the day before it dropped and switched my pre-order to Ruby.

I'll rent it in a few months, play it a bit. May do a full trophy run if I like it then send it back.

I forgot that company even existed for 4 years now. I haven't bought a single game from them because all their games have been shit-tier.

How a multimillion dollar company can't realize that the only people that the DRM will effect are paying customers is beyond me. There are more hackers then there are Ubisoft employees, and hackers aren't on a time schedule. They will get in. Anything stopping them is just a challenge that one of them will always overcome. /rant

Lol at uplay joke. Didn't think of that. Didn't get the hype, won't get the game.

Would you rather EA published?

I don't know why people hyped this game so much. Sure the concept looks cool but it's Ubisoft.

Ubisoft is my least favorite, they're like a combined EA/Capcom cluster-blam!- of awful.
