What does Internet connection may be required for cartridge mean? Can this game not be played without the internet?

yes it can be played without the internet IF you have the cartridge. Some games you buy you can by DOWNLOADING the game and not purchasing the actual cartridge. If you go that route you need an internet connection to perform the download.

We don't have Internet and so it's never been played with it- I don't think there's even an option. Some games may need a download for more options like for extra food and things for the little built-in pet.

If I remember you need Internet to set it up initially and to download any games, music, or pictures but it just plugs into your computer. Otherwise you can just buy the cartridges.

It does not need internet, they changed the format when people started complaining. It is best to use internet so you can play multiplayer games.

No, the single player part can be played without Internet at all. People who play the game with Internet will have the opportunity to compete in races, play deathmatch, stalk other players, and play a type of capture the flag. They will also have periodic invasions (unless they're on a single-player mission) from other players. The online stuff can be turned off altogether, if desired. It's a fun game. I especially enjoyed stalking other players, which I could do even with my crummy satellite Internet.

yes, you must be connected to internet. any game that shows DVD usually needs internet to work. get the ones that show CD and they will work off line or online. some games will play if you leave the disc in your computer

As far as I know...unfortunately no, you need the actual game cartridge in order for it to work.

No, it doesn't. Only if you want the online features like the PvP and co-op you will need a internet connection.

Yes it does require an internet connection and the Steam application installed to be able to play the game, even straight out of the box with the CD key. I hope this answer helps you, I did not know that before purchasing and I am unable to play because I do not have an internet connection where I am at this time. Once you are able to get online and activate it with Steam though, apparently you have to set STEAM to offline play (while being online) then afterwards, internet is not required - just activation.

Yes, if you wish to play with someone far away from where you are, you both need cartridges...you can play on wireless though, without cartidges. Although the person without the cartridge will be a Shy Guy.Have a nice day :)

No you have to have some connection to internet. Either with a cable or wifi connection.

Yes, the online feature has been added into the game. Once installed in your computer, the internet is not necessary anymore! Multiplayer still works too.

Yes, you only need the internet to load the game. It may warn you that no internet connection is available, but it is not necessary once the game has been installed.

I presume you mean play it without internet connectivity. The answer is yes, but obviously online features are not available

You don't need internet access to play the single player story mode, but there are patches that have been pushed out that will greatly increase stability, fix bugs, and add additional features. These patches will require just hopping online briefly with the game.

In my experience with Train Simulator 2015 I would have to say that steam is needed to finalize the install and paltry the game. However I do not know if you need to be connected to the internet to play the game after you install the game.

It is a code but you own the game, which means that you do not have to be online to play. Some features may not work without being connected to the Internet.
