I liked the demo. I may buy it at this price.

Sweet, thanks for the link. Just bought it. The single player campaign stinks, but the skirmish battles and multi-player are cool.

I prefer gamersgate and direct to drive over steam anyway.

DO NOT buy this game. It will not work. Ubisoft has an online sign in requirement, even for offline play. I cannot connect to their servers, and the game will not run, even in single player mode. Tons of other customers have the same, unresolved problem. Check out this thread on the tech support forum:

I'm trying to get a refund from Gamersgate now. Too bad, its a cool game (at least the demo was).

I got this worked out. Routers won't let you connect. Disconnect your router, plug internet cable directly into your PC, then login in the game. Only need to do this once, part of Ubisoft DRM. After that, you can reconnect your router and good to go.

Pain in the ass DRM.

YuPlay is Gaijin, Uplay is Ubisoft. Too weird. LOL
Your router was probably blocking the ports for Uplay, so you may have this issue again if you don't open them specifically.

Agreed that this is a fun game in all ways except for the campaign, which is pretty lame.
Eugen, that developed the game, is putting out a cold war version of what seems to be the same type of game here in Feb.--Ubisoft isn't the publisher this time. Potentially less cheesy factor in this one.
