News: More trouble for Ubisoft’s DRM system
Users of Ubisoft’s PC Assassin’s Creed II and Silent Hunter 5 have been unable to play over the weekend as the servers for its digital rights management system have been inaccessible.
The company’s DRM came under fire from the moment it was announced, as it requires that users connect to the internet while playing the even the single-player elements.
“Due to exceptional demand, we are currently experiencing difficulties with the Online Service Platform. This does not affect customers who are currently playing, but customers attempting to start a game may experience difficulty in accessing our servers,” said the company yesterday. “We are currently working to resolve this issue and apologise for any inconvenience.”
