Kotaku is reporting that AC2 players also got emails offering free games and the black edition DLC to affected players. I suppose this is in addition to the Uplay points they had given out earlier. Decent enough gesture from Ubisoft I suppose, especially for a few hours of downtime. Bad company 2 has a far worse track record at this point in time but I doubt they'll be doing anything to placate affected customers.
