jod123 Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 No. You will have to activate it by phone I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ash999 Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 I posted something similar before it was ripped down its an absolute farce because if you activate through steam i found that the only way you could start or run the game was only if steam was connected to the internet (no mention or warning of this) there may be a solution to this but i'm not sure so i took my game back to hmv where i bought it got a new one and activated by the other method, have to install the patch though but real class game apart from activation nonsense.

KUBI Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 You don´t need to be connected to the internet to play the game after activation. When you make a shortcut from the fm.exe file you don't need to start steam anymore. Connection to steam is only necessary for activation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
