shaun1990 0 Posted January 5, 2007 Hi there, sorry if its in the wrong place. So, I have heard that the Czech version has starforce, but the German version dosent (or is it the other way around?). Does anyone know for sure if the British version does? I hope it dont, as when I got starforce installed on my PC, it screwed my whole system up, I had to re-install windows to get CDs working again. I really enjoyed OF:CWC, played it as recently as Spetember of 06, it still dosent feel outdated. It would be a great shame if it did have starforce as I would be unable to play it as I dont put malware on my PC. Cheers for any help! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FireflyPL 0 Posted January 5, 2007 Czech version has StarForce 4 Polish version also has StarForce 4 German has Securom So, it's quite possible that UK version will have StarForce too. Check out what protection is being used by british publisher. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wamingo 1 Posted January 5, 2007 didn't 505 say their release (which should cover UK as well I think) would have securom - or "definately not starforce". bet you 1 quid this is gonna be locked in a minute.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted January 5, 2007 Since my experience with starforce, and hundreds of other DOCUMENTED cases, I would stay far far away from anything to do with Starforce. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-CS-SOBR-1st-I-R- 0 Posted January 5, 2007 Can I spam a bit in here as it is going to be locked anyway ? I think it will not have Starforce .... by now BIS should have realized that many players would stay away from an ArmA with Starforce and UK is like Germany not a country where illegal software trade is that strong to use starforce.

shaun1990 0 Posted January 5, 2007 I dont believe any country is bad enough with illegal software for them to use starforce to wreck everyone's system who use it, even if they are perfectly legal like me. Well I was perfectly legal until SF broke my DVD drive, making me restort to no CD cracks. But I am glad that the British version wont have starforce. Looks like its going to be my first purchase of 2007! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BIS has nothing to say about the protection. It's the publishers responsibility. If you want an answer on this you should email 505 customer support. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BI should have a say in it, it's their product. In all honesty, I don't know a single person that will buy ArmA if it has SF. No drama, just facts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If they, for example, sell 20% less than expected, then it affects BIS aswell doesnt it ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
