Fucking hell, will they ever make something good for realistic stealth lovers? All they did good so far was AC series, and as far as I know brotherhood is really going down the hill...

What exactly did Ubisoft do to make the mod incompatible? Or did they sue the mod team?

[Bubbaganoosh]

I was done with UBI products after Conviction. There are many other devs out there who
treat gamers like people and not criminals and deserve my money.

I don't think ubi was concerned about this rainbow six mod training terrorists, especially when you consider Clancy no longer works with them.  ;O

The thing is that they acted like dickheads when they heard about PS, and now they are shutting down free mods of their games elsewhere.  Did you read what the mod is?  Just an upgrade of visuals, assets, effects, AI.  Not like they are making an anti-Ubi game like a KILLJADERAYMONDLAWLZ game, in fact they are doing them a favor by injecting interest in their brand name for FREE.

The shit they do makes even more pirates.  Get it?  I mean, I don't want to give them my money anymore after all this garbage.  I'm not about to go pirating around because I can rent games for consoles, but I can see why a PC gamer would.  Not to mention, the DRM shit they have now?

If you treat everyone like a piece of shit you might stop a few cases of piracy but you are going to cause the whole community to want to pirate.  The damage is probably worse.  Nobody wins.

its a good thing PS is using everything from scratch because if it weren't we would see the very end of it faster then what we expected :|

"what does the fanbase want?"

"A sequel to rainbow six vegas probably"

"okay, lets put a stop to that really popular mod that improves raven shield before we start our new game"

"I'll send the cease and decist notice"

[Bubbaganoosh]

UBI stopped being about gamers and just about money a long time ago. The company is run by
bean counters who have no clue about the industry, only the bottom line. They see something
that could "potentially" affect the stock price so they have a knee-jerk reaction and do something
like this. If the company was run by people who cared this kind of shit wouldn't happen.

I pirated Conviction... xD

Noone blames you, I did the same and I even bought the original for fun I guess, the problem is, quite a few ASSHOLES on this forum not naming who, truly play it and love it and enjoy it, but deny it to look cool....

Convictions isn't really a bad game. It just had the unfortunate situation of not being the game that people expected it to be. If it wasn't Splinter Cell... hell, if it just didn't star Sam Fisher, then it'd probably have been received better. The fact that is was, and it did, gave (what seems like) a majority of people a predisposition on what they thought they were about to consume. To which those same people went, "Hey... this isn't what I wanted".

It's still far from perfect, or a REALLY good game, but I played through the single player and wasn't entirely disappointed. Sure, I wish I could have used stealth more (without the gun), killed people non-lethally on a consistent basis, and move bodies... Irregardless to those points though, I can't deny that I had fun with it.

On Topic:

Yeah, it it pretty ridiculous that they stopped a Mod that was just being made to improve a game that has (probably) long been unplayed by a large amount of people. Not making a new title, not to make any sort of money, and not claiming to be anything other than an enhancement on the old. Simply work being done on a product that they haven't supported for years... for free.

He made Sam a "panther" because he has an extreme fetish.
