DO YOU... 1: CARE ABOUT VIDEO GAME PRESERVATION? 2: OWN A COPY OF "THE CREW"?

PLEASE WATCH THIS VIDEO!

You might now that The Crew's servers are going to be shut down in April, but this guy is planning to launch an international campaign to prevent the game's shutdown, thus preventing the shutdown of all video games that rely on a central server.

"Oh, but you can't expect the company to run the servers forever."

Your right, that's not what Ross is arguing for. He's arguing that Ubisoft (and any other company that cant run the servers forever) either patch the game so it can run offline/run servers locally, or release the server software.

Guess how much you can help depends on which country you live in

(For example, if you bought the game in the US your very likely f@#ked. Ross explains the only thing you can do is contact the FTC, but if that doesn't work the only other way to stop this practice is an act of congress because the law is f@#ked and the company can do almost anything as long as the EULA says it. If the EULA says you don't own the game, then legally you don't own the game.)

However, if you live anywhere else (like France, Australia, or the EU) you have a better chance because you have rights.

"But I don't care about The Crew."

This isn't about just The Crew. If this campaign is successful, then it could set a president to save all online only games in the future.

"But I don't own The Crew."

Then reblog this post so someone who does can read it.

If you bought or downloaded “The Crew” check this out. Might be our best chance to get global consumer protection on video games, a very nice and niche win.

I don't know if I have mentioned it yet, but I've been following Ross since the Machinima days. I'll all for the StopKillingGames initiative. Maybe you've heard of it before, if so, this is good video to jump in on (if you have the time and care enough about keeping games alive after the devs let go.)

spreading this here cus it's important

[tigerbears]

You may have seen a post about this a month or two ago, but if your new I have a question.

Do you care about video preservation?

WATCH THIS VIDEO PLEASE!

Basically, this dude (Ross) is launching a campaign to try and shut down the destruction of always online games by targeting the shutdown of "The Crew".

I think the video explains it well enough, but most of it is to direct you to this website that shows you what to do.

Decisions are limited depending where you live/if you own The Crew, but the least you can do is spread the word to people who do own The Crew.

Now I'm going to copy and paste the expected counter arguments from my last post.

"Oh, but you can't expect the company to run the servers forever."

Your right, that's not what Ross is arguing for. He's arguing that Ubisoft (and any other company that cant run the servers forever) either patch the game so it can run offline/run servers locally, or release the server software.
