Far Cry 4 Pirates Outed by Ubisoft

Some particular Far Cry 4 players have noticed the lack of Field of View (FOV) options on their game, and have taken to Twitter and Reddit to complain. The funny thing is, the game does have full FOV options; that's if you've purchased the game legitimately. 

So It's pretty clear that some of those pirates out there have been outed by Ubisoft. A Tweet from Ubisoft Montreal’s Creative Director Alex Hutchinson does a shout out to all those affected by saying.

“PC players! If you're online complaining about the lack of FOV control ... You pirated the game."

So there you have it, piracy doesn't pay. It's one kind of piracy protection that does work: remove features. And it's not the first game to do it. Back when Batman Arkham Asylum released on PC, that too had an interesting type of piracy protection which simply stopped you from gliding, practically making the game unplayable.
