My cottage does not have a phone. I like it that way. I definitely consider it a place worth going.
So yes, authentication is an issue.
Oh, of *course* authentication is an issue. I flat out hate it. The point is that due to this wanton piracy of PC games, which results in the decline of sales, this is going to be the inevitable norm.
Anyway, if you have a Bluetooth cell phone and a data plan, you're all set. Just be sure to do a dry run before you take off!!!
Seriously, it sucks, but what are gamers to do? If you like the game - and don't want to lug your console around - I don't see where you have a choice.
Gamers will always find a way either
(1) as in your case, buy it, then find a way to auth the game from a remote location
(2) buy it, then go look for a crack; because as sure as shit, this is going to get cracked inside of a week. I can almost guaratee it.
its strange to see a thread where Derek Smart is one of the only ones making sense.
I know. Hell's frozen over. Good thing I brought a portable heater with me.

Game developers are just human beings who happen to make games for a living. If you want to hold us up to higher standards of conduct, then go ahead
...but don't be surprised if we don't uphold them
