TS4 without an internet connection?

I can probably already tell what kind of answer I'll get, but I'll ask anyway.

Is there a way to run the new TS4 without having to be connected to the internet? I don't have internet access 24/7, so unfortunately I can't always connect to the ZClient but whenever I try to open the Sims offline, it just opens up a login page for Origin. 
So I guess what I'd like to know is if there's a way to bypass Origin altogether and just launch the game directly like the old method worked. I just want to be able to play whenever I'd like without the limitation of needing an internet connection.

No, you need internet to login on Zclient and ZLOrigin.
Once the Sims has fully started (your game is actually playing) you don't need the connection anymore.
