| UbiSoft drops Starforce - HoMM5 will be "clean" |
|
While there's no grand announcement, word around several gaming communities is that UbiSoft has dropped Starforce protection on future titles - including Heroes of Might & Magic V, as confirmed by Producer Fabrice Cambournet (posting as MuadDib) in <a href="http://forums.ubi.com/groupee/forums/a/tpc/f/1851065692/m/2661050234/r/5521023234#5521023234" target="_blank">this thread</a>:<blockquote><em>Hello all
<br>
<br>I can confirm that we wont use Starforce on Heroes 5.</em></blockquote> |

That's a smart move on their part.
StarForce is known to mess with people's computers and anyway .. SF games get pirated anyway so .. i don't see a reason why they shouldn't use a more "user friendly" copy-protection for their games. At least you don't have to bother to re-start your PC because of the damned StarForce.
Good riddance UbiSoft. |

Very good news, it is a series I am looking forward to exploring, since I am so taken by Disciples II, a game that from what Ive read, borrows heavily from HOMM.
Nice little preview at gamespot with lots of shots n video
I just wish I could see the look on the SF execs faces in their smokey boardroom meeting, erasing another title off the dry-erase board. Must suck being their PR guy, nothing you can do is right at this point, time to go back to working "collection" for the russian mob
