    Well, we all knew it would happen eventually. The people that have computers that don't have internet access will not be able to play the game. That means that Ubisoft will lose money. Their loss IMO.

    I can see them wanting to protect their profits, but that is way to much. When you start affecting the legitimate owners of the game, you have gone too far.
