Splinter Cell Double Agent, new patch out - no-CD still valid!

Anyone know if this means we need a new nocd or does it not update the exe?

EDIT:
Just un-rared it and it doesnt update the offline.exe only the online one so your nocd should still work from before

Also that was close to asking for a no-cd for a new patch, which you should know the rule by now :P

Umm... I know the rules & that wasnt close at all.
It was asking if anyone knew if we would need one or not and then I answered my own question

Well, why don't you check out yourself whether the EXE is changed between the two versions?

If you read the post again I already did, then posted that there is no difference.
Do you know how to read or do you simply not bother reading any more then 2 lines of every post?

Sorry about that! Thread title edited for other reading-impaired people...

They wont be.
It uses Unreal 2.5 engine which supports neither of those... Just like Unreal 3 engine doesnt

A lot of difference when the protection is not the starfarce garbage

chron · #13 10-12-2006, 03:47

It does not madder if you cannot play the game because of the protection or because your hardware is not supported - it still does not work

Muji-FightR · #14 10-12-2006, 12:56

Well, it does matter, at least a little bit

You can still fix the protection error by contacting either Ubisoft support or the StarForce support, someone there will give you (after checking some other solutions) a 'No-DVD' which works with your DVD only but it doesn't check for it. It will most likely still be protected by SF tho...

Hardware problems aren't as easily fixed, you'll have to buy new one etc.

chron · #15 10-12-2006, 13:02

Normally I would not buy the game in both of these cases.
