We don't know (and speculation is pointless right now).

Microsoft and other softwares that have the activation on install are just what they say they are.
If activation over the web was required for each login, that would drive them nuts on their servers. It that were the case they would just put the hooks in to make it a semi-online game. I think that is where MSFT is headed with their so-called improvement to FSX called "Flight".
MSFT thinks they have found a way to exploit what the 3rd party devs have been doing for free for 10+ years. MSFT is going to lock in the code, and sell the stuff.
