ArmA and StarForce

[Timblesink 0]

I've been looking around a bit, and found out that the ArmA E3 build demo uses StarForce copy protection... and that made me worried. Is it not true that there are umpteen rallies against StarForce being used in ArmA? Is it not true that even the Starforce programming team itself is urging developers and publishers not to use StarForce? Who else is crossing every possible crossable-thing on, in and around their body that BIS won't stoop to the primitive level of StarForce?

STARFORCE:

NOTE: Yes, I looked around the forums before posting this and (z0mg! nothing came up exclusively about StarForce in ArmA.

i would Seriously consider not buying arma if it has that crap on it something that sneaks drivers on your hard drive

that can make cd writers  and other stuff go wrong just makes me sick. We dont no for shure they will  so lets hope and pray it isnt on the game

plus i have 2 starforce protected games 1 totaly wont work cd key isssue {on a alien area 51 } and the other works when it wants  oh and i found the drivers and deleted them but its a pain too find them and you wouldnt no they were even there if you didnt no how to find them

As said a million times before; the protection is up to the publisher and we dont know the publisher yet so you cant scream at them yet

But im not supsrised that a press-demo is using heavy protection, after all its only bad if it gets leaked

Publisher decides final copy protection, end of discussion.

In future please actually do a little reading before making kneejerk nonsense polls.
