They ought to patch out the need for Ubisoft’s launcher. Same goes for EA’s back catalog, for that matter. At least EA’s newest releases don’t come with the launcher.
EA’s games that released on Steam after Origin was a thing still launch a mini EA launcher when you press Play on Steam, much like how Ubisoft’s does on Steam. That’s at least how it seems the last time I tried it with Fallen Order.
Right, but that extra launcher causes problems, so I tend to avoid games that still have it. It’s why I still haven’t played A Way Out but played Split Fiction.
Yea I get that, just wanted to say that EA has the same issue too.
Doesn’t EA still require the steam launcher?? I’m not up to date anymore. What kind of DRM do they use now?
Even when you buy their games on Steam, there’s an EA launcher there in addition to Steam. This is the case for It Takes Two, for instance, but not for Split Fiction. Split Fiction only uses Steam if you bought it on Steam.
- And also patching in their spyware they just got fined for, which will likely mean they have to patch the game again soon to remove it or add a disclaimer for it
Can you link a source for this?
Patch for poorly implemented gamepad in SC Blacklist, SC Conviction, Far Cry 4 and 5 still not available, but who would want that - getting achievements with effed up controls is even more satisfying. Good job Ubisoft.
