    I pay 67 Turkish Liras. And if you 're shame, I will show my last invoice.
    However you can't belive me, that is no matter because I pay that invoice every month. NOT 44, 50 or 59 TL for a month.
    And also I buy all of this things because I started to save my money near 4 years when I bought my first computer.
    Then when I played AC.S my 720m wasn't enough last year.
    After then I saw AC:O and than I think that is the right time to buy a new computer but I can't buy a laptop(my first was a laptop) then I buy a desktop with 1050ti.
    I can't buy 1060 or better gpu's. But I begin to save my money TO BUY BETTER GPU about 2-3 years later.

    This discussion becomes personal for me.
    Apologize all of you. My I'd say all true about me but it isn't interest all of you . Sorry.
    I just SAY I and many people like me want physical copies. With DVD form, with Blu-ray form or Usb form. Only legal physical copies just this. And reasons I wrote before threats

    And if he play other pc games too, they are all digital download only, which means he must BUY and DOWNLOAD them. And yes, i checked just for curiosity they indeed have 50GB monthly limit, but they also got different internet providers too, and funny enough bigger monthly limit options for just a few Turkish Lira:

    50 GB 8 MBPS - 44 TL - 9.52€
    50 GB 16 MBPS - 50 TL - 11.9 €
    100 GB 16 MBPS - 59 TL - 14.05 €

    And this prices are from TTNET, most common internet provider in Turkey. And speeds are just ok for such a big game....

    I think that now you know what i mean mr. KostasD95.

    Cheers
    Excuse me my friend but last i checked for the last 5 years i have bought AAA PC games that are not downloa only as you claim, now if that happening to where you are from i don't now but i am 100% sure that right now in my bookself i have ALL AC GAMES ΤΗΑΤ have ever been for the PC in physical copies and may i remind you that the last 4 of them are betwen 3 or 4 years old. So for the past 6~7~8 years there is no such think of downloads only. Now as for the hardware, my PC is 4 years old and as a matter of fact can run AC Origins just fine, just to be clear though not on ultra setting but it can run it, so generaly someone doesn't need to upgrade every year in order to play the latest game (from my experience so far). So if a person save some money to build a decent pc once doesn't mean he is financialy strong as others. So in order to get back to the original topic of this post the fact that some users want to have the option to buy games in physical form doesn't mean that they want to mainly for financial reasons (beause they pay the same with the digital form) but i can't disagree that helps when their are situations like our friend's darklion2043

    At least on the german ubisoft store you are able to preorder the standard version in "pc dvd" flavor... Only the "standard version" in fact, so our beloved "collectors" editions are not having any disc included. I've given up on arguing with the customer support, after my letter to Yves Guillemot was answered by the team leader of the store customer service. They just don't give a ****. Even if it makes absolutely no sense that DVDs which ARE produced ARE NOT included in the editions that are ESPECIALLY MADE FOR COLLECTORS OF PHYSICAL EDITIONS...

    Well, even though I've preordered every Assassins Creed in the highest edition available, I skipped preordering AC:O now.
    In fact, I don't know if I will buy this game at all... So fed up about it.

    Don't be too surprised though, if it's only one disc with nothing but a UPlay installer on it...

    The thing that always got me was the physical was cheaper than the direct to drive, you'd think it would have been the other way around. I still think there should be an option for those that have bad internet or not much download capacity, for to purchase a physical copy of the game.

    If Rockstar can do it with their GTA V, there's no excuse for multiglobal company like Ubisoft to not release this game on PC physically

    1 BluRay is cheaper than 7 DVDs.
    Some may say BluRay is not a standard for PCs. BluRay has been out for a while now, if games and movies come out on BluRay, people will buy BluRay Readers for their PCs. Especially gamers who spend a fortune on their PCs.

    There is an 'excuse' for Ubisoft, it's called not wanting to ship several disks or use a declining format.
    BluRay is not a standard for PCs so the install base would be even smaller that way.

    I understand the deep frustration from players in certain territories,
    but the solution lies in improved local broadband infrastructure.

    Or play the game on console. There are always choices.
