Gave Ubisoft the full purchase amount of $100 upfront for the unsolicited "guarantee" of Closed Beta Access. After giving up half of my Friday waiting for my key, I finally get an email:
"As of now it is unlikely that the players who are currently on the waitlist will gain access to the beta today."
There are MILES of daylight between the "guarantee" and being put on a waitlist, and after giving up half my Friday waiting to participate in this beta, I have absolutely no faith in Ubisoft's assurance that I will be able to participate in the beta tomorrow. I fully expect a refund on my misguided purchase and everyone else who's been disrespected by Ubisoft should expect the same.
