Rpg class like style of play? Sounds too much like generals

"As a nice side effect, since C&C4 requires players to be online all the time in order to prevent cheating, we'll be shipping without any form of DRM. "
I see this as a response following EA saying like last week " oh ya go steal our games, they are all online now and subscription based..."

Why would they care if people cheat in a single player campaign?

I didn't read the links yet, summarize for me if it's in those.

I did. RPG class style of play, sounds like generals, and they are doing away wtih DRM, but youre always gonna be online. I have a feeling EA is rolling out Steam ea-style.

wtf, so if i'm on a long flight with my laptop, i basically can't play because i have to be online. this is worse than DRM.
