I've never had any issues playing it offline. Are you playing the new version that got released today? Because it sounds like this might be a new bug.

Yes, this is newest version of the game.

Xuio: Yes, this is newest version of the game.
Could be a bug then. I don't know if you can go offline at will, but if you can have you tried going offline and starting the game without blocking it? Might be that the firewall is blocking some essential process.

You were right. I did some "research" and these are the results:
1. version before dlc 1 is working fine even when i block it (ver. 1.1.1.8)
2. newest version (1.2.1.1) is working fine when i pull the ethernet plug out, but it crashes when i block it with my FW (comodo)

That it explains it then. They'll probably fix it soon since there's always new bugs with an expansion, but at least you can get it to work in the meantime!
New 1.2.1.4 version didn't fix this issue :(

It might be a good idea to report this to the developer, since it's a new bug and they're working on fixing those. Fortunately you've got a short gap measure until they fix it,, but ideally you shouldn't need to do that.

Yeah, I've reported it on Friday. Hope, that they'll fix this.

Yes, same result, unfortunately.

What's funny is that it works even with no actual cable, but crashes with the firewall rule...the same thing happens with Victor vran though.

Your best bet is to literally say this to the devs.
Newest version report (1.3.1.5):

Game is working after firewall block, but at the same time it displays crash report. But if i don't close it (crash report) - game works fine.
