That's the point, this is a better form of DRM compared to whatever else they've tried. They did genuinely try and get SimCity to be require online and it did for certain things, they merely removed the option to turn of some of the regional stuff to allow you to play online...
If someone's stealing your game, it's only logcial to try and do something about it. I read about how Football Manager 2014 sold considerably less than 2013 because it took a few weeks less to pirate.
I know we hear about it a lot less, but there's still a lot of it going on and it's awful for game developers and publishers. I don't think it's quite as widespread as stealing TV shows (which is again terrible), but that's probably because there are extra complications.

Best method to reduce piracy: Make a game worth buying.
Pirates get around DRM. Always. It is a waste of time that only hurts paying players whenever it cocks up.
This game is missing all sorts of features from earlier games, doesn't scream value does it. With no value it isn't worth buying, so pirate.

So are you saying people don't pirate good games? Because that's just not true
