The developers and publishers are fighting against software piracy. Ooooh, It's their problems.
Customers are not supposed to suffer anything like this. Even if the server is working properly, it still not the right way to do.
People paid for the game and they supposed to own 100% right to play it anytime. Can EA guarantee that we can play the game in 2050 after the company went out of business or the server was shutdown?
