I love this game as much as CH, but I have something for people that complaint. First alway check CH new release of the current game you're playing and new update than UPDATE your game. Don't just update w/o CH trainer release than complaint about it. That all. All CH staff, trainer maker have a LIFE you guy should KNOW it. They're not AI to program 24/7 so make thing easy, don't update your damn games b4 checking at CH First!
Sorry Zeakura... That is the Problem with THIS Game - You can't play it unless it checks and performs an update. If you abort the Update Check and may an installation - you abort the Game. You should not be so rude if you don't even know what you are talking about. you can't even play in offline mode if a new patch exists. the game tells you "a new version is avaiable - please update" and you can't play until you do so.
CH Guys - is there a way to stop the autopatcher from ubisoft? if it were steam we could decide if an update should be performed or not - but with the auto patcher it is impossible to decide on our own.

I've buy the game and I know the other way that u don't need to keep up with the update to play. You know, there are many way to get the game work offline so let u know. I love Anno and I've buy the game but im tire of the updated so THINK outside the BOX. xD
I don't know any legal way to do so. If you want to play - U need to update. Sure if you use illegal tools ther is may a way to go around it... But i own a legal copy of the game and won't go illegal for such a reason.
