Nine times outta ten my machine is connected to the net when I launch the game and I gotta wait while the Uplay launcher does the 'checking for update' routine every time. The first time or two it did patch the launcher.

Do you mean I should select 'online mode' in the Uplay settings from time to time to allow patches? Seems odd but i'll give it a try.

Well that didn't help either, It just won't let me play my career when I'm not on the net.

Seems I'm the only one with this issue? Oh the irony!

After some more experimenting it seems if I launch the game while conected to the 'net, load my career and then loose the connection I can still save and load as I please untill I exit the game itself, I then cannot load my career again on restarting the game untill the internet is connected again.

At least I don't have to worry about it droping out mid game (that's why I haven't noticed the issue untill now I guess) but It's still a big issue as I often don't have internet reception for days at a time.

I guess I'll just try to finnish this career then try a re-installation.

Just out of curiosity do you have steam version or boxed (DVD) version of game?
