hugo_rune Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Good news. Steam patches automatically - assuming you're playing online, or at minimum go online enough to update your games. So you're always playing with the latest fixes and updates. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dan99 Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Set Steam to online mode. You'll have to have done it to register the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roman5228 Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 so youre saying that steams been automatically patching for me already even though I dont play online? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kriss Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 It will have auto patched any updates due at the time you authenticated, if you haven't been online since then it won't have added any further updates, to get them you'll need to put Steam online for long enough to do it.

Guest Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 No, you'll need to go to online mode every now & then to check for updates or when you hear of one being released after visiting this place. My Steam account has been offline since I installed FM & I will keep it that way until there is another patch or Steam sale. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roman5228 Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 Maybe I'm confused with what online is.....but my steam account is online and I go through steam to play FM When you say go to online mode...do you mean playing other people through a network game?

SazoJohnno Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 No. On Steam, press on steam files when you got the library of games up on steam, you will see 'Go Offline' if you can see that then you are already online on steam. Patches is already updated for you unless you say otherwise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
