Damn Ubisoft and their dumb UPlay.

I got the newest Prince of Persia about a week and a half ago because the whole series is a lot of fun. I've had some problems with the game.

First of all there are several rather large glitches. One is a game breaker if you don't know how to fix it. You basically get to a spot at the end of the game and if you die there you just keep respawning there because that's where the autosave last saves and you die and die and die. Many people had to restart altogether to get around this. Turns out the fix is to delete the autosave from your memory and fall back on the "backup autosave." It's annoying, but at least it's fixable.

Another glitch is where you rank up parts of your character and after saving and quitting and turnign the game back on all your stat points are either gone or redistributed. There is no fix for this. You're just SOL.

My glitch is the worst. The game hasn't been giving me any stats to even upgrade. I played the game for over 3 hours and the whole time it's telling me "You've earned another XP point! Hit the 'back' button to redeem." Every time I do this it shows I have "0" points. When I try to spend one it confirms that I don't have any to spend. I delete all my saves and start over....same problem. I delete it all again and start over again...same problem. It's actually worse this time because for some reason the game has some "ghost" memory of where I was at XP wise and starts leveling me up from my initial playthru and it's STILL not giving me points. I finally broke down yesterday and called Ubisoft. I talked to a guy by the name of Brian who said he's only heard of this happening to one other person and that Ubisoft is aware of the problem and is working on it. Turns out it's the Ubisoft UPlay feature that broke my game. UPlay is a feature in newer Ubisoft games that gets you more content for playing the game and admittedly has some kinda cool stuff in it. Anyways, one of the rewards in the new PoP is 2 automatic skill points. I guess me redeeming that reward broke my game because UPlay is still in beta.

Bottom line is that I'm boned. A game patch won't help me because it's UPlay that's broke and it's been in "beta" for over a year already. How much longer will in be in beta? The PS3's Home service has been in beta for almost 3 years now.

I asked the Ubisoft guy if he could just refund my purchase and he said there's nothing wrong with the game and that if I just play under a different profile it will work fine. Retarded. I want to play under I 3N3MY I. That's my gamertag and that's what I paid to play on.

Currently I can't find a way to delete UPlay from my gamertag and from what I've been reading on the internet there isn't a way to do it. My only other idea is to try to attach my UPlay to a different gamertag so I'll be trying that at home.

Pray for my patience.
