Guess Ubisoft still has a few tricks up its sleeve.

@moose,
Typical bullshit. He basicly says the cracked version users will find out that their cracked copy is not fully functional.
Edit: I think he means the triggers. Worst case scenario is that the game exe downloading levels from the Ubi server.

Cracked Games Are Incomplete, Says Ubisoft
http://ve3d.ign.com/articles/news/53526/Cracked-Games-Are-Incomplete-Says-Ubisoft
A brief statement from Ubisoft has come through the wire, stating that cracked versions of Assassin's Creed II and Silent Hunter V: Battle Of The Atlantic are incomplete. In the case of Silent Hunter V this appears to be false. Ubisoft may therefore believe that the deactivation of their UPlay achievement system is grounds enough to call the subsim 'incomplete.'
| Quote: | | You have probably seen rumors on the web that Assassin’s Creed II and Silent Hunter 5 have been cracked. Please know that this rumor is false and while a pirated version may seem to be complete at start up, any gamer who downloads and plays a cracked version will find that their version is not complete. |
A spot of clarification: Silent Hunter V: Battle Of The Atlantic has been scene cracked; Assassin's Creed II has supposedly been cracked by someone over in Russia. Applying the scene crack to your legally purchased copy of Silent Hunter V will give you a complete game. The Russian Assassin's Creed II code floating about may be missing the digitally distributed DLC, which would give the publisher another reason to bandy about the 'incomplete' accusation.

Yea, their protection obviously has some nasty triggers scattered around the game.
It is funny tho, how they try to consort their customers with how the pirates are having a hard time. I bet those who bought the game despite its DRM must feel so much better now. They can take a deep breath.. "whew.. we didnt suck UBIs di** for nothing, the pirates still can't have the game" - never mind the fact, that the first crack came out even before the official EU release date 
Do they really believe, that their paying customers care about pirates? That their clear conscience is worth putting up with such a draconian DRM?
Ah well.. if it wouldnt be the rush hour for game releases, i might even care about not being able to play SH5 for a while. Then again, with so many good games coming out this month... Did anyone look at the release calendar for march? Those of us willing to buy the good games have a though month ahead, as there are many good games being released. In a sense im grateful to UBI, Square Enix and CA for allowing me to save some of my money this month  Would i have to buy their games as well.. well.. lets just say that would be another 100EUR to spend, which now i can spend on other things.

well from what i can gather..
EITHER
- by "incomplete" they mean minor shit (achievements)
- the version is a pre release beta
- the crack is a epic fail trigger fest

So let's see, Installed .exe from the SKiDROW release ( without applying crack ) it's not ok, but If you use the SKiDROW crack over the "original" version from purchasing it's fucking proper, WTF UBI ? Drunk suckers

Trouble is alot of the games issues ive seen can be related to general SH series bugs that were always around from day 1 on sh3 release..
So will be hard to sum up a few of the issues wether its bad coding/lack of fixes porting over from sh4 or wether its triggers...
The thing Ive seen so far that only is a problem regarding probable crack related is you cant take a mission from the map in dock, i get no icons to mouse over after the info has been spoken out etc etc,, but I can take to a std normal free patrol and all seems fine apart from general glitches which are more a gfx glitch or cruddy animations etc... |

So then UBI are stupid fucks and they dont admit that they suck and if in my pirate version i will not have some stupid achivments and thats not full game i dont give a damn.But its strange how clone dvd+crack will make game incomplete and from original + crack will be complete.This is bullshit ubi sucks

Ubisoft 1? Maybe.. if we are counting own-goals.
They lost way too many sales on this one imo. I love the series. I would have bought it without hesitation, but i will not touch a DRM like that. I would like to believe that I'm not alone.
Yea, its a new protection, that might take some time to crack properly. Because of its heavily online nature, it might even have elements that need emulation to work properly. Then again, nothing you can play can be completely protected, as anything that you can access can also be reverse engineered. The only way to totally protect intellectual property is to not give you access to it, but that would kinda defeat the point, as then you cant play it either
Thats why i dont see a point in the war against piracy. Its a futile attempt to fight a symptom instead of going for the cause, which is:
- lack of meaningful demos
- stupid protections
- the ridiculous idea that everyone pirating the game would also buy it

Many buyers of the retail version were complaining about bugs and incomplete/missing gameplay elements in various SH5 forums. Maybe the game is just an incomplete mess alltogether?
I call shenanigans!

Just a thought: maybe the game behaves wierdly because it's missing parts of scripts or whatever that normally are downloaded from ubi's server if you own a legit copy. Would be a good protection scheme if it worked that way...
