UPlay can't Login, Can't use Offline Mode

[SamQueso]

Says I can't connect to the Ubisoft service or login to UPlay and when I try to do offline mode says since it's my first time using Uplay on this computer I need to login before using offline mode. Is there a workaround for this?

Yes, there is.
1st of all, simply into the Ubi$oft's site to "create an account"[www.ubisoft.com]. Just be mindful to not create a darn new password for it and also to recall the e-mail you've used.
Afterwards, I strongly advise you to peruse through your Ubi$oft's Account Information[account.ubisoft.com], just to make it more secure to avoid being stolen. For ex., I've linked it to my Steam account just to make it more manageable since I've got 2 different passwords for each of those.
Please don't mind the site I've used to link it to you, but I'm not an English native speaker and that one appears upon my Latin native language.

And eventually writting all those informations about your Ubi$oft's account details upon a safe text file (i.e., for ex. a simply *.txt will do), then placed inside a master pasworded *.rar archive is a solution or alternativelly try to use a password manager.

2nd of all, simply uninstall the forking defunct, since 2020, UPlay Game Launcher/Store that Ubi$oft incompetently still has bundled with these old game upon Steam and then go fetch their current bloatware version of Ubi' Con[www.ubisoft.com] for you to be able to connect to Ubi$oft's servers to validate your Assassin's Creed II's (AC II's) license/CD-Key/whatever they're using these days.
Although I must warn you to also search for ways on how to keep it offline because their current version needs some tweaking to abbide to that simplest command and thus that's why I dub call Ubi' Con simply as being currently being a big piece of bloatware cr@p.

3rd of all, open the game from Ubi' Con[www.ubisoft.com], log into it using your Ubi$oft's account information and finally you're done with that ordeal.

after buying this game i pressed play only for it to not start so if it doen't start i may have a fix for you guys.

on assassins creed 2 you want to click on settings on the game thru steam itself then click on manage, and then click on browse local files. after done correctly you should see all of the assassins creed 2 game files, then you want to scroll all the way down to the bottom where it says ubisoft installer or something like that, right click on the ubisoft installer, then click run as administrator.

now not to confuse you but this is not (ubiconnect) this is the old version of the ubisoft app so don't confuse it with the new one, i already have the ubiconnect but i guess in the game files in assassins creed 2 you need to install the old version of it, after you have said yes to everything it will say its no longer in use or outdated, just ignore that then come back to your library on steam then click on assassins creed 2 and then you need to verify integrity files it should be on (steam) thru the game settings of assassins creed 2 under properties on installed files so click on that, then wait for it to be done verifying the game now your game should work for you. however after verifying the game files i would just restart your pc just incase if it doesn't bug out your computer however i will leave that up to you decided, after i have completed these tasks my assassins creed 2 works just fine I hope this helped you out and thank you for taking the time to read this
