How can I be sure I have a version that will let me play off-line. Mine still says on the box that "persistent internet connection required"

They made off-line play available after the initial release. Every version should be able to play off-line now.

That is because EA never updated the box art they simply updated the game files to support offline, u should have no problem playing off lineIf u do just update the game

The game doesnt work anymore. So i dont use it. And when it did work. It would constantly just freeze up and i would have to shut down the computer to get my computer working again. I will never buy anything from Amazon again. I wrote a complaint and never got a response. Wrote to Origin also. And got no response from them either. So i plastered it all over social media how you dont stand by your products. So as i said before. I will never use Amazon again.

Works great off line, single player. Never had a glitch or failure, just boredom.

Good question! I'm always curious about things like that myself. But this game is completely written for your computer. NO internet is required to download or play, either one. And, you also have the option to custom download which games you actually want. But if you don't know what the games are, I suggest downloading them all, and going back through each menu separately, and double click 'uninstall' on the ones you don't want. No internet is required at any point.

You HAVE to have internet. You can play solo, but other people will be there and, if offline, you cannot play.

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.

It is Right. After I installed the game on the steam plataform, I never needed to use the disc again. After installed the game on the steam plataform you can play offline or online, both without the disc.

You can download the game via steam, and if i remember correctly you can play offline but you will have to sign in to steam, please don't take my word for this I'm not 100% sure.

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.

Yes, once you already downloaded it, the game as well as your saves, are saved onto your hard drive. So you can definitely play it offline.

This is updated version. The only new download I needed was compatibltity pack. You need Internet for the comp pack.

If you down loaded the game then there shouldn't be a problem. If nothing else, buy an external disk drive. I think I paid $40 for one at Best Buy.

I don't know of any cheat codes for this game exist, but I also haven't felt the need to find any. Yes, you can play offline.

if you purchase this on disc how do you make sure it is updated to the latest version to play online/multiplayer?

This game has updates every other week or so and yes you need an internet connection to access those. We play it on Xbox however.

Yes. It's a link to the Steam system which actually holds the game. There is no way to play the game without internet.

Yeah, Wifi is internet, and you can play it without an Internet connection. But you won't be able to download updates, and play online.

When I installed the game, I had to log into my steam acct and validate. It also had to download updates. After install, you can choose to play offline.
