I dont know if its worth getting.
I have a buddy who is NOT a hardcore gamer and he beat it in one weekend.

Well, after killing another hour reading up on Starforce I've come to the conclusion that the uninstaller does not completely uninstall using the provided uninstaller. Given that there is so much uncertainty surrounding this method of copy protection, I'm going to play it safe and return my unopened copy for a refund.


Tough break though, I've really been looking forward to this game and it will be the first splinter cell title i've missed. Sorry UBI, looks like we might be parting ways thanks to your poor choice of protection scheme....

Its the only game that has been out for over a month that you cannot find a crack for. Actually there is one crack but its such a PITA that it wouldnt be worth using. I think it makes it a good choice of copy protection.

On another note you keep stating that you had to uninstall deamon tools or whatever and I have stated already that it didnt affect my daemon tools at all.

I am willing to accept starforce because i see that PC gaming is dying. The population has always been small in comparison to consoles. It is often more expensive to develop for because of the variety, and piracy is so much easier for a PC user.

When you get ready to purchase your next gaming rig. Will it be a PC or an xbox360 / ps3. Personally I like the functionality, experience, adaptability, and accuracy that I get while playing games on my PC. However should they slow production of PC titles any more than they already are I dont know which mine will be.

Food for thought.

This thread is from last summer but it will lay out some of the basic issues that people have raised with Starforce. You'll have to decide for yourself if you feel that the way Starforce driver interacts with your system is a system liability or not.

It doesn't surprise me that a weak company like Ubi would use something like this, but until I have a problem with it I don't care. So far no problems as far as I know.

I have no idea what you are talking about here. I stated nothing whatsoever about daemon tools. You must be confusing something you read elsewhere.

Anyone know where I can get a walkthrough for the CO-OP part? Hate getting stuck, just want to play it through with my friend.

Yeah sorry that was someone else in the thread.

This game is hard! I didn't even know till I was almost done with the first mission that you aren't supposed to kill anyone. Now I know.

I'm on the second mission, everything was going fine up until I got to the engine room. Somehow I need to sneak past all these guards without being noticed. One gunshot and the ship goes boom. I'm afraid to even try

I'm resurrecting this thread cuz I just got the game and it's great! The new stuff is such an improvement from the other games. Go get it if you haven't, it's great fun. The multiplayer is a bitch though... since everybody is so dam good and you can't find many people to play with anyways.
