lol are you retard or something ? you must know exactly what algo they used to get valid keys. for EA keys exist out of --> 23456789ABCDEFGHJKLMNPQRSTUVWXYZ
you can make alot of INVALID keys out of that which are valid to the game itself but not for activation! To get valid keys to play / activate online, you will really need to buy the game!
The cake is a lie.

Now now, THAT might be an exaggeration. Let's not get carried away here. Remain calm. Do not panic. Plus, you know, buying it is only a short-term solution until EA decides to revoke your key. Let's try to remain calm and not panic here.

How would someone make a keygen ? How to calculate the hardware-based key ? Brute-forcing is surely out of the question. And the actual calculation is being made at securom's servers.

I think something similiar has already been done in the keygens for Earth 2160 and Two Worlds. They calculate an unlock code for your PC based on your hardware and game key.

Both games have an "Activation by phone" option. That means, no server amulation was needed.
Also, I'm sure Securom is a LOT craftier. Not too mention the important code must be somewhere deep in the dark VM woods. Difficult age for crackers.
P.S.: It's fucking HOT here, some of the things I said don't make much sense, sorry for that.
P.S.2: Still my idea of faking the hardware is awesome. What do you think, evilcrn8 ?

faking hardware is definately plausible, depends on what hardware is checked, and there's probably a lot of variation, say for example it also works from the windows installation key, swapfile data, file creation data, cd/dvd drive information, hdd serial, hdd partition info, windows settings... whole possibility of things...
however, as you say, faking the hardware information successfully would result in a generic hardware id, then of course you'd need a real serial number for the activation, which then would activate (locking to hardware information)...
then i guess faking the hardware information in some wrap / injected dll, would work..
so, idea has merit for sure, difficulty level could be the actual problem.. that and, as/when/if you're successful and it goes public, i'd expect them to log more hardware information etc..
which then means researching the whole thing over again..
overall its probably the same concept as keygeneration for windows activation... possible for sure.. doable.. well, that depends on the crackers skill level... and as i said before the level in the scene currently seems quite 'weak' compared to old times...
