Is there a way to bypass this and install the game? Next thing I'm gonna do is install it in another PC with internet connection and then copy/paste the files in mine.

Is there a way to install and play the game without connecting to the internet? I even tried getting some 'cracks' (which pisses me off since I OWN the damn game) but they can't work since I can't even go through the installation process because after installing the main game it prompts for downloading a patch. I need your help here as I'm desperate! I purchased a copy (bought it, it's an original copy) of BIOSHOCK but I have no internet connection at my gaming rig. Pre-purchasing the game on Steam or GOG will get you the System Shock 2 Enhanced Edition for free when it comes out.Hello everyone and thank for reading. System Shock 2 Enhanced Edition doesn't yet have a release date, but the System Shock remake is less than two weeks away-it's set to come out on May 30. Multiplayer in the Enhanced Edition 'has been overhauled to create a seamless experience,' Kick said, and will both simplify the process of connecting with other players and provide a smoother and more stable experience. Co-op play was added to the original System Shock 2 in a post-launch patch, and to be blunt it was janky as hell: It was fun to pant and sweat with a couple of friends while running through the corridors of the Von Braun, but it was also a chore to get running and prone to crashing, and not really worth the hassle once the initial novelty wore off.

The visuals are the most obvious upgrade but Kick said the biggest difference in the System Shock 2 Enhanced Edition will actually be seen in the game's overhauled multiplayer. In my mind's eye, System Shock 2 has always been sharp and realistically detailed, but when I look at these images I'm forced to acknowledge that perhaps the passage of time is more of a distortion field than I realized. You can see the difference in the before-and-after screens above.
