In Pascal's Village, the "Recluse Stays Home" side quest asks the player to play hacking. However for some PC players this seems impossible as time is always short by one second even for the perfect play.

I have several other UbiSoft games that use this very same DRM, but not Assassin's Creed 2. Here's what happens in those other games when I lose internet connectivity.
- The game inexplicably freezes with no error message.
- After several moments (I'd guess about 1 - 2 minutes) a message finally appears on the screen telling me that "UbiSoft's servers have become unreachable".
- After another few seconds, if you still can't contact UbiSoft's servers, the game drops you to your Windows desktop and all unsaved progress to that point is lost.
To be clear, it doesn't have to be YOUR internet connection that fails. It could also be a problem on UbiSoft's end, or anywhere in between. The game only cares about being able to contact UbiSoft's servers, it doesn't care whose fault it is.
To be fair, I've played A LOT of the latest Settlers game and only been kicked out maybe five times. However, much like with the early days of Steam, the first few days of actually owning Settlers 7 I couldn't play it at all, because UbiSoft's DRM servers were under heavy load and wouldn't authenticate my game.
I would not recommend buying a game with this type of DRM, and had I known the games I bought had this DRM, I would not have bought them. I will never buy a game with this type of DRM again.
Beyond setting your mouse sensitivity high, disabling the "enhance mouse precision" option on the Windows control panel (you may need to go into the Windows panel, even if your mouse has it's own) can help greatly for shooters. What it does is essentially reduce the pointer sensitivity the slower you move the mouse, or conversely speed it up the faster the mouse moves. With that done away with, when you move the mouse an inch in whatever direction at whatever speed, you will always turn the same amount.
The downside of this is that unless you have a mouse with high DPI, you may not be able to have both the sensitivity as high as you like and have your cursor move smoothly (it may skip pixels)

This can only be a problem for PC player who uses the FAR mod to limit the framerate. The player's bullet shooting speed is affected by the framerate. If the framerate is below 50 FPS, the shoot speed will be too slow to break all the blocks.
