    Re: Steam offline mode?

    If I've got no net and I start Steam up, it just tells me that it can't connect but I can go into Offline mode if I want to. Every game I've tried works offline...

    Like above, it will prompt you if it cant connect, or you can open the steam browser, go to File -> Go Offline
