Maybe now we can finally admit that Uplay kind of sucks. I'm in the US so it's always been this way for me. Sorry European PC Era.

Oh, Ubi. 2 steps beyond, 4 or more steps backwards.
How can i support you when you are doing crap like that?

I never received the original email or this one.LOL i just got this
Did anybody beside me actually got that previous email?
So, following EGS exclusivities:
- Ubi games got removed from 3rd party stores
- Ubi is pushing a tighter control on key market
And now they might be removing their 20% off in the near future.
But people fuckin told me competition is great. :)
Next time, dont play yourself and stop eating the PR bullshit from these companies. This is why what is happening right now in the PC market is a disaster for customers.

Ubisoft, their policies on digital games, and Uplay are starting to suck more and more lately.
Edit: wait what, so it's back to business as usual now? That was too elaborate an email to have been accidentally drafted...

It looks like, but i am just wondering if anybody beside me actually got those emails.
I checked and I didn't get anything. How was that email even sent "in error"? :D

According to Reddit they did change FAQ on multiple pages few days ago but it looks like that they reverted changes.

Can I get 20% off on Breakpoint pre-order now (EU)?
Going to the Dutch store still prompts me with a "get 20% off with 100 uPlay points", so I guess yes, the offer is still valid.
Filling out one of my own codes... yes, still valid.
Shows the same for me but I'm afraid of losing 100 points for nothing if it doesn't work
The last thing I brought on the uPlay store was the Y4 Siege pass when it was already on sale recently, so I dumped some coins to make that cheaper.
Before that... was the Y3 Siege pass under the same conditions. Pass was 20% off normally so I used more coins to make it cheaper.
Regardless though, shitty move on their part.

This is why I no longer buy Ubisoft games at launch in the US. Can't use the 20% off coupon like Europe and they removed all their new titles from 3rd party online retailers due to EGS crap. Oh well, at least in ~5 months after launch I can buy the gold edition of a title for like $30..
This is how it's been in the US.
I've only used the discount a couple times. I've got a couple hundred points built up though, and should see if there's more stuff I can unlock in games in case any expire.
