    For people who like to play games, Ubisoft is running a free one month trial of their subscription service which lets you access all of their games. It started on September 3rd and will last until September 30th. Just make sure to cancel the service before the end of the month.

    Beware that subscribing via paypal to this, you'll need to pay 1€ for it. but you are able to cancel afterwards... Just a heads up

    Thanks for warning. I didn't have to pay anything with Credit Card, I guess it's different with other methods.

    I wonder, how do game "micro" transactions work in subscription based service.
    For example these armor packs for ACOd. Are they included within subscription, or do you have to buy them separately. If you buy them separately and your subscription ends, how do you use those armor packs then, if you don't have a game?

    Most likely you'll buy them, they will appear in-game and once the subscription for uPlay + ends, you lose your money and the items lol.
    Unless you buy said game (where you did the micro transactions), only then, you will see the items in-game
