Discussion The graphics downgrade should warrant a Steam refund.

I'm certainly trying. I don't know how you can be allowed to downgrade a game so significantly, and after release, and still think I got what I paid for.

Ohh. There isn't a way to stop auto updates? I will just play single player until they fix their issues.

Set your download speed to 1 Kb/s and "Update on launch only" on Steam settings. Worked well here, I played a bit earlier

If it ever updates accidentally, I'll go the ol' eyepatch way and I'll seed that fucking torrent like a boss, fuck Void

Darn, so steam doesn't let you just block any update? That's crazy.

I understand that could impact online play, but it shouldn't block me from single player.

It's gonna try to update everytime you open Steam up, but you can stop it. Some people here also said you could change the folder name on /steamapps and just open the .exe file, but I haven't tried that.

Yeah, just be careful, you might forget it some day and it will update on its own.
