Re: steam issue
I think you're stuck with doing it that way :(
The last 2 times I removed Shogun2 from my computer, I went through the same thing. Install from discs and wait while Steam downloads the entire thing; frustrating!
Savor the sweetness of delayed gratification?

Re: steam issue
Steam is probably downloading the several patches, which may well come upt 4-5 GB, not installing the game. If you set steam to offline mode you can probably play immediately.

Re: steam issue
No it was not the updates i tried going offline in steam prior to installation it didnt instal from the disc the installation bar pn the setup window was full in 2 minutes than it has directed me to the steam download, i have already disabled the auto update option from settings anyway it almmost took me a full 24 hours to install but its fine now it might be a bug but there are also people outhere that claim thar it is intentional to prevent piracy though i dont see that helping anyway thanks for the replies guys
