Aisiniath, you probably don't or can't see the whole problem. If they do not check every time if you realy own the game, people (hackers) will be able to find a way to crack the game and play it without buying it. this means that they also will be able to play on the ea servers without paying. Well and when the exploit is found, it won't take a very long time before a whole lot more people will use it. that means EA lose way to much money on the game and the next time, they won't bring the game out for PC.

Thats all well and good, but people who have already cracked the games are still able to play and I'm not yet I did things the legal way. Who really wins here? EA? Me? No...they do. So they lose out on a few perks of being connected to the EA servers, but they still can play the game and enjoy it while I have to make sure I have an internet connection and that the EA servers are up to even play the game, can't even play it in offline mode. Blizzard even acknowledged that problem and Starcraft now has an offline mode. They realize that server checks are unrealistic and faulty now from similar things happening. The time for that style is over and EA needs to realize this.
