Ubisoft to drop Internet requirement to play games.


Ubisoft to drop Internet requirement to play games.
The Issue
Ubisoft have released many games of late that require an Internet connection to play. This combined with poor servers and customer support have made playing Ubisoft products a complete chore for me and many others.
My most recent experience of this is related to Ghost Recon Breakpoint. This game requires an Internet connection at all times to play. This should not be the case. The game is almost a carbon copy of it's predecessor Ghost Recon Wildlands which does not need an Internet connection to play. Breakpoint needs this connection but Ubisoft seem to have server issues daily. Constant disconnection mid-game just sucks the life out of a product I have paid £50 for. That's £50 for a disc containing stress and no fun. This is with a strong Internet connection!
If you have a quick Google or hop on Reddit for 5 minutes you'll see people from all over the world complaining about this issue. So I've taken it upon myself to gather as many people as I can to sign this petition, get Ubisoft's attention and end online requirement for these games unless completely essential, starting with Ghost Recon Breakpoint and Rainbow Six Siege. These are the two games that suffer the most by my research.
END UNEEDED INTERNET CONNECTION FOR GAMES THAT DON'T NEED IT. MAKE UBISOFT GAMES FUN AGAIN AND NOT STRESSFUL!!
