no response to that part? I admit that back then SercuROM would have been in the works, but who knows if any other methods were being considered? if everything had been confirmed?
I'm pro-SecuROM? since when? the only thing that should have admin rights to anything on my computer is the admin (me), and reports of computer problems have me wary. Which is why i read these threads...in the same vain, if you dont like my comments, don't dignify them with a response.
what i
am against is scare mongering...which is what's going on here. SecuROM will blow up your PC. EA are out to get us! All your credit card details will be lost! comments like that are massive exaggerations, and rather than actually protest against the use of SecuROM, trying to reasonably solve the problem, you're just scaring people away from it.
(edit: by you, im generalising...i mean a few anti-SecuROM people, not necessarily you personally)
and by do it properly, i mean be honest. In the grand scheme, a small number of users have had problems. theres a
potential security risk...comments like that, instead of 'say goodbye to your PC'
I'm not trying to argue, just putting a point across. commence the flaming if you want
and for the record, i fully support what you're doing. If i were more security conscientious, or the game wasn't so bloody brilliant, i might be posting from your perspective...only without trying to make out that EA are conspiring against us :P
