If someone could edit the title to add in PC please. On my phone and missed it off. Thanks!

great price, went to order, then realised it's on uPlay, not steam.

heat added, but not for me.

Even with steam you'd need to use uplay

Am i the only one that doesn't have an issue with uPlay?

brilliant game , I had the ps4 version , ran well enough , but the PC version is much slicker in 60 fps

Am totally a PC gamer and realise uPlay is no more crap than Steam.

Happens every so often with all companies, jeez. Uplay is a useless piece of junk which was meant to compete with steam but doesnt.

It wasn't "meant to compete with Steam" it's just another lockdown-to-publisher kind of deal. I don't imagine anything would wish to be like Steam.

Still can't believe this didn't get knocked down anywhere for X1 for black friday :disappointed:

you are comparing 2 platforms based on nitt picked one screenshot ?
thats just silly

My main problem with uplay is that it doesn't autodownload updates for installed games like steam, psn and origin do. Other than that, it is improving.

If it manages to survive the division launch next march without crashing then it should be OK. I don't think the overall quality of many Ubi PC ports in the last few years has helped Uplay's cause much tbh.

He is always trying to cause trouble. By far and away Steam is the most robust and reliable major gaming network out there. Nothing comes close to competing with it properly, not even Xbox Live.

Don't forget you can get quidco on this deal too btw and CDK don't seem to mind people using both voucher codes and cashback referrals.

Corrected that for you ... :smiley:

Agreed, I had a few issues with Unity to start with, but the patch sorted all of that out.

Syndicate is playable maxed out with no issues, and I'm finding it a lot more fun that Unity. Some missions are annoying, but they are massively outweighed by the proper assassin sneaking around playing as the girl.

One pc + 2 kids + Uplay = 2x copies of the same game and 2x Uplay accounts, even if they play at different times. Come on Ubisoft it's nearly space year 2016!

True. That always works with Uplay games. It's a pain in the **** to get it working with Origin stuff though.

​sure. who would want to be the wealthiest privately owned tech company making 100s of millions a year without needing to release a game. the biggest pc game distributer ever, no board of directord to answer to, just choosing any random crazy tech they fancy to research, whenever they want, for fun. who would want that. yuck.

what a good return to form this game is! very good price and service from CD keys.

Darn got this and used it on uplay instead of steam :disappointed:(( not sure if it would work on steam anyway. Good deal but I hate uplay.

Not sure I understand you - the Steam version also needs uPlay?

Are you saying you prefer it when there are two lots of DRM in the way of your game rather than one?

cheers mate :wink:

I'm finding that adding the Uplay and Origin launchers is the best way to start games through Steam - less buggy for me but appreciate a couple of extra clicks. It works even better with a Steam Link because it puts my Xbox 360 controller is mouse mode when using both Uplay and Origin.

It works no different with or without steam, it's in your head because you've decided you don't like Uplay & therefore if you use through Steam magical pixies make it better. You can use your xbox controller normal with it.

How's it as a PC port? Unity was kind of a mess. Black flag was pretty good though.

Also uplay can go die in a fire, I don't mind competition but right now it's basically where steam was 10 years ago. Ubi and EA Origin need to provide actual competition rather than just inconveniently silo-ing their games.

I was following the instructions they sent and never thought about it. I have done rainbow six siege the same way too. I got it free with a laptop.

OH RIGHT I GET IT NOW!!! Ok I'm stupid lol. I thought you needed it on steam to get achievements and all the stuff that u get with a game on steam, trading cards etc. But these games don't have any of these things in the first place which means you can just add the game to steam.

You're missing the point. If I'm using my PC, not streaming, I have no need for Steam. When streaming I have to use Steam. That's when using the Uplay and Origin launchers work better than adding the actual non-steam game to my Steam list of games. If you have another solution, do tell.

I see what you're saying. I'm not sure why uplay even exists in the first place as the games are sold on steam. Unless ubisoft plan to leave steam at some point.

I can see the point of Origin as EA don't sell their games on steam. But I have seen, and firmly believe, that if you don't sell your games on steam it loses sales on PC. But EA are a unique company in terms of ignorance and greed so I'm sure that's the reason they chose not to use steam any more. The ignorant part is they could possibly make up that percentage through the extra sales and be no worse of.

I don't think a single solution like Steam is the answer. I'm kind of glad Ubi and EA have kept their own solutions. We need some competition. Ubi and EA often have some great prices. Outside of Steam sales, they are usually way too expensive.

I still think Steam works best and Steam Streaming is very clever,albeit not the finished article.
