Can't start game in offline mode
My internet was gone. So i wanted to waste some time in the game, but all i got is messages that said i have to be online. Why the fck would you force me to be online for this crap?

The issue with Steam is that if the last time you were logged into Steam client was in Online, they don't let you change it to Offline if .... you're offline. You have to go online and tell it to restart in Offline mode first. Yes it's stupid.

Say thanks to childish idiots who refuse to pay for products because they can hide behind the Internet.

considering there are no actual studies done that drm prevents piracy it's hard to say 'it's the pirates fault'. It's capcom's fault for ramming non-consumer friendly bollocks into their games.

How are you posting this comment if you have no internet? Besides you can make an hotspot from your mobile. It is like a few kb's to authenticate Denuvo.

lmao, there is no way to 100% prevent piracy, don't know who told you that horse crap, it just slows down piracy by checking if the copy is legal.

Tired of debunking the last part of your post so you can keep that delusion if you want,

i swear, steam forums is just nothing but tin foil hat complaining everytime new games are launched with DRM.

but yeah, the whole offline thing is pretty silly, i have to do it for a certain game because i won't let it update due to some annoying downloads it gives. and it's always a chore.

Glad you got the answer.
Yeah, it's 100% a steam thing. I lost internet last night and had to do the same. Steam is a little over zealous and controlling in the online play regard.
