Is there a way to force the EA app open in offline mode?

What kind of Bull crap is this ea? I can’t play my games cuz YOUR APP WONT START OFFLINE. I’m seeing replies from literal YEARS ago and still can’t get into mass effect thru steam when my internet is out. I hope justice finds the people making this decision.

First off, this site is garbage as I can’t find anyway to report a problem with this app that none of these threads cover, that is, you can’t even continue to play the game offline after you played it once in offline mode. 
discovered this today. 
Last night I was able to play without internet, as I was signed in while online, then I go to play this morning, after leaving my computer on all night, and I get an error code with it telling me that I need to go online to sign in. 
The game told me that I would be able to keep playing in offline mode when I exited. 
Are people forced to keep their games running indefinitely while they do not have internet?? Because that would be garbage. 
Please fix this!!

For those reading this, Beware! This thread is now over 3 years old, I could not find anyway place to report this, the chat feature seems disabled (at least on mobile), and the only forum I could find to report or ask anything on was on the functionality of the forum?? 
If you purchase from EA, you should expect to never play your games without an internet connection in any realistic manner. Offline mode is a lie. Too bad for those os us who purchased our games during a time when offline mode was an actual thing that did not require an internet connection to sign in.

They should be required to refund those of us who purchased our games under the understanding that we could play our games indefinitely without an internet connection as they removed a key function AFTER we purchased our games, which included that key function. Agreeing to continue playing them should not disregard that, why is there not a class action suit, I played good money for the game and it’s expansions before this change was made and they changed my access to the game after, which should be illegal. 

When we as users of the app will be able to play games without internet connection? I bought Mass Effect Legendary Edition in Steam to play it on the go and in places without internet, and I was extremely upset that Steam allows offline play, while EA doesn't. When will this be fixed?
