Remember the scene in X-Men: First Class when Charles Xavier and Magneto tried to recruit Wolverine?

This is what happens when you get the game from Steam.

If you launch the game through Steam, it will ask you to log in through Ubisoft Connect, even with UPlay already open. And it will ask for Ubisoft account info EVERY TIME you launch the game.

When you open UPlay, Far Cry 3 will show up on your Ubisoft account as Installed. If you want to launch Far Cry 3 directly from UPlay, it will also ask you to log in through Ubisoft Connect EVERY TIME.

And you cannot launch this game without internet connection, because they need to "verify license through Ubisoft Connect", when the game itself notes "Multiplayer and online features are no longer available for this product." right above the Add to Cart button.

"Go F*** Yourself". This is what the game tells you when you try to play the game.

I feel bad for not playing this game because a friend bought it for me to try the Far Cry games.

But I cannot beat the game in 1 sitting, and the fact that I need to type out my account info every time I want to play the game really kills my enthusiasm.

Just be aware of what you are getting into.
