And don't forget that games now launch directly when you start them through Steam. Doesn't take away the fact that uPlay is one of the most useless applications available when you already have Steam, but well, at least it works pretty well now (compared to POS called Origin).
PC: Yes. Console: No.

Nope still downloads installer first and then you install.
At least speed trough uplay increased a lot.

yeah but i mean you can always download the installer through uplay, right? i remember ubisoft USED to provide a limited 30-day downloader for teh game, and then you had to pay a fee to get the downloader again if you did not keep the install files...

No such thing. Installer is always available for downloading.

Quote: | I need to re-install software I purchased as a download.
All download products purchased through the Ubisoft Online Store can be downloaded or re-downloaded for a period of 30 days from the date of purchase. We recommend creating a backup of your download after purchase should you ever need to re-download or re-install. |
im going by that. i dont have many uplay games, so if that changed then i wouldnt know.
edit:
did some further digging.. sounds like they have a weird system... if you buy something through uplay, you can download through uplay, if you buy something through the ubistore, you have to download the game with the downloader, launch it, sign in to uplay, and then add your cd key to tie it to your account. damn if thats not an ass-backwards approach... so HOPEFULLY once a ubi store game is added to your account, you can then download THROUGH uplay, but if you havent added it to your account through uplay, you have 30 days to download the game.
awesome.

Uplay 3.0 has redeem key in its new features so this is not a problem anymore. And i have games brought 1 year ago and i can still download them (downloaded HAWX 2 like 10 times since i got it)
Edit:
I guess this 30 days period is for the downloaders that are not related to uplay client.
Third party download links with some launcher as downloader (like the ones for Far Cry 3, AC3)
If you have the game in Uplay client you can download when ever you want.
Edit2:
The issue remains with the games that are NOT in Uplay client. Right now i have key for Beyond Good and Evil, but i cannot download it.... as its not i Uplay and download links expired. The only way to get it is.... Spoiler: | exactly torrent/isodemo |

You can also view content for unreleased games though I don't know if that's intended or a oversight, for Watch Dogs there's currently a (stealth) car that can be unlocked and for Splinter Cell Blacklist there's some suits.
EDIT: Watch Dogs
Papavero Stealth Edition
"Avoid detection and elude the cops in the Papavero Stealth Edition. ctOS won't know what hit it"
Blacklist
Customization Pack
"Ghost Blue Ops Suit lights and 200.000$"
Alpha Armor
"Unlock the Alpha suit single player & COOP torso armor."
Raven Suit
"Unlock the Uplay exclusive "Raven" single player & COOP Ops suit."

uPlay 4.0 announced, coming to PC this October, and this Fall on PS4/XB1.
Quote: | UBISOFT® CONFIRMS UPLAY® PC 4.0 FEATURING INTEGRATION OF VIDEO PLATFORM TWITCH
Paris - 19 Sep 2013
Today, Ubisoft announced the latest PC version of its cross-game, cross-platform service Uplay. Uplay PC 4.0 will be available for all members in October 2013.
Uplay PC 4.0 offers an array of new features in high demand among the PC community. The integration of Twitch, the world’s leading video platform and community for gamers with more than 45 million unique visitors a month, enables members to broadcast their in-game videos and share some of their most memorable gaming achievements with friends. An improved download manager allows for the progressive download of games and auto-patching, meaning that gamers can spend more time playing. And a new social wall keeps members up-to-date on their friends’ activities.
Ubisoft also confirmed that Uplay will be available when Xbox One, the all-in-one games and entertainment system from Microsoft, and the PlayStation 4, Sony’s next-generation computer entertainment system, arrive in stores later this year. Using one unique profile, new and existing Uplay members will be able to seamlessly access the full scope of Uplay services and features on next-generation consoles. Above all, gamers will benefit from the Uplay Win program, which rewards fans for their commitment to Ubisoft’s brands, both in-game and in real life with additional in-game content such as items and accessories, and invitations to consumer and industry events. More than 40 million rewards have been redeemed to date. All of Ubisoft’s next-generation games, including the highly-anticipated Assassin’s Creed®IV Black FlagTM, Just Dance®2014, The CrewTMand Watch DogsTMwill integrate Uplay, including Uplay Win. |
TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."
"a phenomenon."
"A tangled tale of sex, violence, power, junk food..."
"Like Nothing On Earth"

I wished uplay made a rehash of installed games and download the game files, not the installer, otherwise you have to reinstall games every time you reinstall the OS. I used to save registry entries to get uplay to recognize the games, but it´s a pain in the ass really. One of the reason I delete the game from uplay once I beat it.
