So if people "steal there work" and distribute it they get bitchy and sue yet they take other peoples work and claim it as there own. Pathetic.

Guess Ubisoft will be scene-banned now :)

this is priceless

IF you cant't beat em...join em!

ahh Ubisoft... you cant lie to the L33t!!! We sniff out your lies!!!!
Us > U

UbiSoft = Pwnt

Ubisoft wants it both ways.

Priceless. So say I downloaded the game illegally I could use this "official" patch to play the game.
I'll be downloading this "Official" Patch.

Ha, I love stories like this. XD

Sounds kinky.

i like ubisoft and everything.

but

Reloaded owned their asses on this one.

madd ownage here!

game developers don't know how there own exe work.. so they have to use cracks from user made sources.. haha..

Where can I download this "Fix"?

its pretty bad when the people they call pirates fix the big corps gaming problems for them and then ubisoft or some company calls pirates a drain on the whole gaming industry. This is the funniest thing i've heard in a while. So are pirates really the big problem? or companies pushing out games to fast not fixing the bugs and glitches and beta testing long enough?

I don't know what is more pathetic: Ubisoft using someone elses work or their game players actually bitching about Ubisoft breaking their own EULAs and License Agreements when they provide a fix for something.

Ubisoft are quick to punish members who even mention CD cracks in their forums. Threads get locked, deleted and members get banned. Yet hypocritical Ubisoft have gone and done the exact same. Paying customers are often given the "suck it up and wait it out" response to the demand of bugfixes but when Ubisoft decides to steal other's work in claim it as it's own, meaning that paying customers are unaware that they are now breaking the law by using illegal software, the servers that host the games are now also being used for illegal software, something that they are very strict about regulating.

No, I have no idea what you mean, your punctuation makes me want to commit suicide.

first of all they didnt offer a fix, they stole one. then once everyone found out it was stolen, they no longer would offer it even though it was actually fixing the provlem leaving everyone screwed.

how are you trying to defend ubi here. Biggest hypocrites ever.

I wonder if this could lead them into lawsuit territory. You know using an illegal patch when it's clearly against their very own EULA. I mean if I legaly downloaded a game and a company was releasing a so called 'illegal crack/patch" to fix my game, I'd be a lil woried about the original source it came from. I love Ubi to death but this really takes the cake. Even though Reloaded can in my mind be trusted, as a consumer some people aren't comfortable with using "ILLEGAL" cracks or patches. So I think this kinda opens up Ubisoft for legal issues, but I'm not sure.

ubisoft don't give a fuk about their fans and never have as regardless of ppl's pc's being damaged by their game DRM at the time (starforce) ubisoft completely washed their hands of loyal fans over Orwellian controls refused to give any support banned all forum users complaining about issues in their attempt at a great cover up, and sent them off to the starforce web site where the starforce devs blatently told ppl to f'off and refused to offer support, they then posted the torrent link on their forums and advised ppl to download it as there was no copy protection and this is what would happen to all games if DRM was not used because of the ppl complaining of pc's getting totalled because of the step down to poi mode because of StarForce DRM.

Starforce Backstabs Galactic Civilizations 2

Much maligned anti-piracy software developer Starforce has sunk to a shocking new low in making a case for using its product. In a posting on its company messageboards an admin (who may or may not be directly employed by the company) included in a post the link to an active torrent file trading link for the recently released Galactic Civilizations 2. The link has subsequently been removed, but the text of the post remains. The poster states "Right now several thousands of people are downloading the pirated version only from that web-site. Is it good for the sales? Unlikely." This brazen release of the url and accompanying statement smacks of the strong-arm tactics you only see in gangster movies when someone doesn't cough-up the money for "protection."

Doubtless Starforce feels itself more and more backed into a corner. The post comes in response to a note on the official Galactic Civilizations 2 site that its game was selling fantastically at retailers like Wal Mart, Best Buy and Gamestop--without need for any sort of copy-protection. This is just one more blow against the beleaguered Starforce software that is widely regarded by PC gamers as malware that can cause damage to PC hardware. While Starforce maintains these claims are unsubstantiated, and has pulled stunts such as offering a reward for anyone who would come to Moscow and demonstrate such problems, there are more than enough of them on the Net to raise suspicions.

For its part, Galactic Civilizations 2 publisher Stardock has commendably stayed above it all. A response on its website details its philosophy for handling piracy and selling games. It's one of the most proactive and refreshing approaches you'll hear: "Our primary weapon to fight piracy is through rewarding customers through convenient, frequent, free updates. If you make it easy for users to buy and make full use of your product or service legitimately then we believe that you'll gain more users from that convenience than you'll lose from piracy." It then neatly wraps up the whole matter by noting that the torrent links were easily removed by going to the offending site and following some simple instructions--nothing that required use of any draconian copy-protection software.

at the end of the day DRM sucks and any company using it should be boycotted.

BTW after a huge outcry ubisoft dropped starforce DRM over the, IMO far more obtrusive sony made DRM secuROM but hey if you make DRM it's a great time to pump the media full of stories about "piracy" to drum up business.

No CD cracks from what I know are legal, its your choice though to use it in an illegal way. I know that I like No CD cracks so I don't have to carry around my game CDs for my laptop.

No cd cracks are illegal and punishable by a spell in prison and/or a hefty fine just for having them on your computer in the USA because of the DMCA and many other parts of the globe.

Circumvention is not allowed. ppl. ubisoft are basically telling ppl to break the law because their DRM (Sony made secuROM) as usual is only causing problems to honest paying customers.

The great thing is that sony keeps getting paid to sell this malware/crapware which has compatibility issue after compatibility issue and we keep sucking it up.
