I don't understand.
Playing in "offline mode" while still requiring an active internet connection seems rather counter-productive to me. What's the point of that?
He is using an illegal copy obviously, hence the comment. Even the illegal copies can go online they just can't connect to multiplayer games.
As an aside, steam is not required for any of the mount and blade games. To get your non steam copy, open up your steam library and right click on the mount and blade game of your choice. Then select view cd key and copy it down. this cd key can then be added to your taleworlds profile and will allow you to download copy straight from the developer.

This is good information to have. I'll do this, then my connection to Steam for Warbands will be severed. Do you know if it can be done with other games, as well? I also play Civ V very often, and have the same problem of having to connect through Steam.
