acidmonkey Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 did you buy a disc and activate with steam or buy from steam? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbutton Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Steam has offline fetures so you dont have to be online to play it, or create a shortcut on your desktop and go on it from there Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drazkul Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Steam has offline fetures so you dont have to be online to play it, or create a shortcut on your desktop and go on it from there Just creating a desktop icon doesnt work this year with FM - it will still load up steam. You should be able to set it to offline (making sure you click remember login details) and play it that way hough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard76 Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Another reason not to have anything to do with steam. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElliotN Posted December 15, 2009 Author Share Posted December 15, 2009 Apologies for looking a bit silly here.....when I have FM loaded up, do I then set up to allow to play offline or must I set through Steam? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgar555 Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Through steam, in the options you can choose to go offline, as said before, get it to remember log in details though. Good luck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rougess Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 You can't be running FM when you restart steam in offline mode though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdanio Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 if you have no internet available and start fm.exe then steam will inform you that you have no connection and ask you if you want to start in offline mode - answer yes and away you go Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
