    So, if piracy was impossible, then do you think those 90% of people would then buy the game instead? Of course they wouldn't.

    Reading this paragraph, the only thing that seems to concern Ubisoft is revenue. Never mind the other advantages of a solid F2P model. Look at TF2 or LoL- they're not making money because they're free to play, they're building massive player bases. That subsequently leads to revenue, even if only a tiny percentage of players actually make purchases.

    Also, I can't play Ubisoft games I legally bought because of their retarded DRM solutions!

    One thing I'm looking forward to is what excuse will they use when sales/profit of free-to-play titles don't reach their unreal expectations, because when that happens they can't just pull out the piracy scapegoat.
    Very interested to see how this plays out as well.
