VGCUbisoft has taken this approach before with their recently published Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora game. So... yeah, it seems likely that Ubisoft could do this with other games that they publish on disc. As was discussed with the Avatar game, the issue is that whilst this may not present too much of a problem in the short term, at some point it is likely that the disc will be unusable once Ubisoft turns off the server check for the game.
