If you are buying the PC version, then yes; you must have an internet connection. Also you have to have a Steam account otherwise game will not work. A steam account is free to set up if you do not have one.

No, it loads something called "Steam" but the game installs on your PC and runs without being online.

Online game code is the code they give you after you purchase it. So instead of a hard copy, you can download it after you purchase it. As you know, all games have a code you need to unlock the game, this version allows you to download it from the convenience of your computer but, yes, you need internet to download it. After you download it, you do not need internet since it is already on your computer.

The game doesn't require wifi to install. And time varies (usually no longer than a half hour). However, should you connect to the internet and play the game, you will be prompted to install updates.

No, you do not need an Internet connection to play this game. Master Poker comes to you, full and complete, on a CD, which you install on your computer. All the information your computer needs in order to fully display and run Master Poker is contained on the CD; therefore, no Internet connection is required.

If you mean, can you play against the computer? Yes. I don't think you need an Internet connection at all, except to download the game.

Yes it does require an internet connection and the Steam application installed to be able to play the game, even straight out of the box with the CD key. I hope this answer helps you, I did not know that before purchasing and I am unable to play because I do not have an internet connection where I am at this time. Once you are able to get online and activate it with Steam though, apparently you have to set STEAM to offline play (while being online) then afterwards, internet is not required - just activation.

It does not need internet, they changed the format when people started complaining. It is best to use internet so you can play multiplayer games.

Yes, the online feature has been added into the game. Once installed in your computer, the internet is not necessary anymore! Multiplayer still works too.

We don't play it online, but sometimes it is really slow. Sorry, I don't have a clue. Perhaps your internet speed slowed down? Good luck finding the answer.

Yes, but you download it from Amazon servers. I bought this game because I wanted to play it online, but there is no body online... A very few players only.

You have to have an active Internet connection even for offline play it will still need to connect to battle net to check for updates & verify your account before you can play, after that you can play offline but every time you play you have to connect first, if you're only going to play solo campaign offline just download a hacked copy the only benefit to buying it is multi-player access online

No, it only gives you a code to download the game. If you have no internet or have trouble connecting to the internet you will not have your game you paid for.
