Start worrying about piracy and DRM when you finally start developing half decent games.

Such DRM + DDoS on Ubisoft’s servers -> no-one can play their games.

That’s one more vulnerability to the list.

They should follow Bioware’s lead, who offered “free” DLC codes for those who purchased the game.

This is a TERRIBLE idea! As shocking as it may seem to game developers, there are still people in the world who only have dial-up (or have to pay per megabyte/time online or something). So you’re just going to cut off all of those customers because they aren’t wealthy enough (or don’t live in the right area) to have Internet access? Absurd. That’s not going to do a single solitary thing to cut down on piracy, it’s only going to increase it among people with limited Internet access and cut Ubisoft’s sales.
