Well then, we’re getting closer to another Ubisoft-release, namely HAWX 2 and something… interesting was found.
“Internet Connection: A permanent internet connection is required to play the game. ”
Oh, I see, they’re not going to include the giant block of text which was before (the one below), they’re just going to hide some little note about requiring a permanent internet connection in the system requirements. This is most likely the DRM and could be considered a tad bit hypocritical considering their comments about the RUSE-drm.
From https://steamunpowered.eu/ruse-will-not-utilize-ubisoft-pc-drm/:
Aymeric Evennou, Ubisoft senior community developer, stated on the official R.U.S.E. forums: “When R.U.S.E. is released in September, it will benefit from Valve’s Steamworks API to offer the best community experience to players. Consequently, a Steam account and Internet connection will be required to activate the game, as per Steam policy. For this reason, R.U.S.E. will not use the Ubisoft protection. Single player can be played offline.”
