FADE is to my knowledge only used in Operation Flashpoint and only kicks in when you use a pirate serial. In CM3, securom new + triggers are used. The triggers are certain places in the program where the programmers call a securom function to see if the program was cracked and if that 'trigger' wasn't removed by the cracker, this will result in weird game behaviour, an example would be TOCA race driver were suddenly every car crashes. Triggers can be removed, but the crackers have to find them all and this can mean playing through the game several times to make sure all triggers are gone. That's why there are more and more bad cracks, but making cracks for it isn't impossible, just a bit more difficult than usual. As always, if you use Alcohol120% then you can play from the hard disk without any crack.
