Hello,
i do realize that this problem is most likely steam related but as their support did not yet bother to answer I am going to post it here instead.
Steam patched my game to 1.05 with no issues. Then I decided to get the ruler creator DLC, which steam also downloaded. Right after that CK2 refused to start, giving me the following error message:
""Keine Verbindung zum Steam-Netzwerk möglich.
Dies könnte an einem Problem mit Ihrer Internet-Verbindung oder mit dem Steam-Netzwerk liegen. Bitte besuchen Sie http://www.steampowered.com, um weitere Informationen zu erhalten."
Well, it's German but it basically says that it is unable to connect to the steam network and you should take a look at their homepage for further information or that it could be an internet problem on my side.
As you can see my internet works fine, so I tried to disable firewall and anti virus software. I even disconnected the router and set up a direct internet connection. Furthermore in steam I did a "check file integrity / cache" on CK2; not sure what it is called exactly and right now I cannot check it for obvious reasons. As all that did not solve the problem I decided to reinstall steam as a whole. Did not help either. It uninstalled all my steam games and now I am unable to play any of them as I still get that same error message when I try to start steam.
So, while I do not expect you to solve steam related problems it would be nice to put me into the right direction, or give me an option to play CK2 without steam.
TIA
