New C&C game should not be using EA's Origin program

I wonder what will they do if they (EA / Origin) or the app found out your computer is full of hate propaganda against them?

I just bought a copy of SupCom 2 (when priced at $15 on the shelf, it felt like I was stealing it lol) but after I had installed the game AND installed steam, it had to install again for whatever reason, making the time to even get the game up and running about 2 hours after I had unboxed it.

I noticed this and could not mention: I live in Romania and I know a store that reduced the prices on a few games, SupCom 2 being 20 ron, which is equally to 7 or 8$, and even at this price I am still undecided if I should buy it.

ON topic: In some ways Origin feel to me more confortable than Steam on Battle.net. I bought Alice Madness Returns in the week of it's release, and I know Origin was new too. When I play Alice I don't even need to login on Origins.
When playing something from Blizzard instead, I have to type my password everytime. When I play something on Steam or Battle.net when I am at the laptop, and the wireless net stick moves, I lose the connection and for example in StarCraft 2 I can't load saved games, or on Steam it doesn't count the playtime.

Annoying about Origin though, is that if I install an older game like Mass Effect 2 or Dragon Age using their disc (it feels faster than downloading), they still require the disc inside even if Origin detects them as installed.

Any new C&C will definetly use Origin, it's an EA game right?

I don't really bother much having to use 3 different platforms for my favorite games, but if a 4th comes in, then its going to be too much.

I know a lot of people are obsessed with buying games in the store, but out in the Caribbean and games in the store here are closer to100usd here and the price doesn't decrease over time. So for me Steam actually makes videogames possible and affordable.

I don't mind needing an origin account to play multiplayer. Look at bfbc2, when I launch my game from steam a pop up appears and I sign into my ea account. For other games it should be the same. Launch the game in steam and sign me into my origin account once I'm in the game for online play.

I think that C&C games should be capable of being separate of these programs, but should also be available for purchase and use on them. Then there could be separate lobbies from the different programs when online that intertwine. For instance:

(In a list of players)
C&CGuydud3-regular server
Kanelives-Steam server
GDIpwnage-Origin server

There would be no limiting the Steam or Origin users to using Steam/Origin servers only, and no preventing people without either of these programs from playing on Steam/Origin servers.
