This won't satisfy the user base. People can get their city-building fix from other sources and EA knows this (and in a way the network requirement of SimCity is hopium that this game can act more like the facebook city builder games).

It seems unlikely and would be a huge development investment, but the best thing for EA & their shareholders is to do a 180 and change the game to single-player w/o DRM.

I wonder if the engineers have prepared ahead of time for a DRM-less version (knowing of the potential for the fiasco).
