wanderer89 Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 This worked for me as I was having it earlier. Go to My Computer, then Program Files, then Steam & delete ClientRegistry.blob. Then try again, but you might want to back up that file, just incase. I was trying to install my FM btw. Hope this helps you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

iolodavanki Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 I can't connect either, Steam seems to wanna update itself but cant connect and asks me to try later. Two days now. Tried to disconnect from internet and start in offline mode, but it doesnt work either. I am a little bit unhappy that I need to go via steam to play a game a paid a lot for. If there is a problem on the steam-end and I dont intend to play online, why shouldnt I be able to start the game offline? Disappointing.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katarian Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 You can start the game without starting Steam. Go into C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\common\football manager 2009\ find the fm.exe create a shortcut to it on your desktop. Bingo you can play without loading up Steam (or at least I can and I installed using Steam), it's even in the FAQ. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
