At some point in time, you have to get on an internet connection at least once to activate it on steam. Although I don't know if there is a difference from activation to installation, but you should be able to just install it from the disc. Otherwise, I could see it being possible to play offline beyond that point, however. To play offline, just go to your steam folder in your computer and find the launch application. Otherwise, its not the end of the world, go to a friends house and borrow his LAN/Internet for a little bit to get it installed. Hope this helps!

You will need an internet connection. You will need it to get the dlc unlocked through steam.

Well it should be a steam code. So, yes, you will need Internet to play the game through your steam account... If you have one

Yes, the game requires Steam activation. The worst part about it is after a certain amount of time, you must go into online mode and sign in to "validate" your account. Never understood that.

yes. and most important: the internet connection must be broadband. steam does not support a 56 kbps dialup modem connection.

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.

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.

Well, yes and no. It does need an internet connection to update the patches, which fix a few minor issues. And you need the internet connection if you want to have the option to do the multiplayer, but you can play the game without a connection. I don't have one for my PS3 and it works just fine. The multiplayer doesn't add a whole lot to the experience except random encounters with hostile players and an option to have players join you for boss fights, so if that doesn't interest you, you miss nothing without the connection.

You need to install it but no I do not use the cd. I play it without being on the internet. It puts a i con up and you go to it and it comes up for you to play.

I bought the disk version with the cable when it was on sale at a deep discount. All you need is the license key from the box by which you can log into your Steam account and activate the new game by entering the license key after which the latest edition (all patches included) will proceed to download to your games library. if you did use the disk, you wouldn't have all the patches and the game would patch after activation. Just using the code through steam, no drive is necessary.

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

That is just the addd-on. You needed to get the original game that included the expansions. Now you have to buy disc with original game.

Yes it is a disc you install to play the game. However, you must always be online to play the game... And yes I purchased it without knowing that feature (it's in very small print).

No difference at all. Make sure if you want all the downloadable content that you buy the LEGENDARY EDITION.

Once the game is installed, you play from the internet. You'll get weekly updates that download when you log in. There is no need to have the CD in the computer. Just be connected to the internet.

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 must activate the game via STEAM. Once that is done, you will be able to play the game with or without internet or STEAM. why this is so; my guess is that you are prevented from selling the game to someone else without giving up your STEAM account.

No it installs when you put the game in you need the Internet if you want to play online. Not WiFi the hardline

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

I had downloaded this at purchase. You should be able to download the file from another computer put it in a flash drive then install. You do need internet access for activation though.

Yes you need internet connection for your ps3 to download the update. It takes around 45 minutes to install.

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.
