What does "Online Game Code" mean? Is the complete version download to my MAC or must I be connected to the Internet to play the game?

Online game code is the code they give you after you purchase it. So instead of a hard copy, you can download it after you purchase it. As you know, all games have a code you need to unlock the game, this version allows you to download it from the convenience of your computer but, yes, you need internet to download it. After you download it, you do not need internet since it is already on your computer.

I've played the game offline dozens of times, though it does prefer you to be online for cloud based save file storage (in offline mode it saves a local copy). When I bought the game i was emailed a "Product Code" to activate it. Searching online I found answers that Amazon emails you the Online Game Code to activate the game. It basically means you're getting the game's activation code by email rather than printed and mailed to you.

You can play while your are offline but to gain achievements for game play you must by logged on to steam and play online. If your are offline though, you can still play the complete game.

This device is compatible with mac, the drivers are built into the OS. If the game doesn't have configuration of buttons for Mac, you will have to use a button mapper software to do sohttp://www.usboverdrive.com/USBOverdrive/News.html

You don't have to play on line. You need to create an account but you can play against the computer. The game plays just like the original. I have been having a lot of fun playing it. If you liked the original you will like this.

A day one update is rumored but I am not sure what it does. Aside from that the game is single play only so internet should not be required for anything sans leader boards or something like that.

You buy it first. Then it unlocks as a purchased game in a manager so to speak called steam. (Steam is free to download by the way.) Once the game unlocks, you can find your purchase in steam, the game downloads to your mac or PC and you can play. Make sure you've got a gaming control for you computer....I tried using the keyboard and it was a nightmare.

Hello! Thanks for your question. The best that I can tell is that you need the disc in order to play the game. So I think that as long as you download it once, you shouldn't have to re-download the game again. All you would need is the disc to play the game. Again, I am not 100% sure about this but from experience that is how it's always been. Sorry if I could not provide you with a better answer.

Bring a game disc that you can play without internet, but you must download the other online to play. I still have not downloaded.

You need the original game, unfortunately. Sorry for my late response, this one got lost in the mail.

You will need a larger Hard Drive. The game is quite large and if you intend to play online, you will need more space for the online content, patches, and map packs. I would suggest that you upgrade your hard drive and move your data to the new drive and work from there.

The game does require a broadband internet connection. Offline mode is available only in those circumstances where you temporaily lose a connection in which you may continue to play for that session only. Even then you have to login as a "guest" even though you own the game. Guest privileges only last 30 days before you have to login to a live internet connection to re-register the game. Otherwise, you are locked out of your own game. Kinda sucks doesn't it?

The disk only contains data for installation so you don't need to download them from origin (data for updates (so the DLCs), patches are not included in the disk, you will need to download them for installation from origin. The codes from the box are the things you need since you redeem them on origin. Therefore, The codes are what you need to register the game under your origin account. The DISK IS NOT NEEDED to play or even for installation, heck you can even throw it away if you want to.Treat it like a retail steam game nowadays, but with origin.

The biggest problem is that their downloading instructions are super unclear and outdated. After hours I was able to download the game on to my computer which is a brand new Mac. (I don't know if pc has less problems with it) however I will also tell you that once I finally got it downloaded, I could only get the base game to play. Neither of the expansion packs work because I have the "wrong code" I have to say that personally for me (while I love the game) downloading it was very difficult... I have a brand new laptop so I don't think it is that... Hope that helps!
