It might be NEXT Christmas before I see the laptop.

Sorry about the laptop delivery problem. I hope it arrives before Christmas for you. Last piece of hardware I ordered this summer from China took a month and a half to arrive, and that was without any riots going on.
Disconnecting from the net may not be necessary while running TWoS. How odd though... I don't know about the Steam/Ubi version but the UPlay (Ubisoft Connect) version in offline mode still loads smoothly even when I completely disable my ethernet and wireless connection (via a netsh interface command).
We can be grateful that this is not an EA game.
EDIT: Saturday. After 30 min in game, the UZO, charts, and recognition pictures turned white. I was so hopeful... Well, at least I know what isn't screwing it up.
