Honestly I just wish I could freeze updates to games that are playable offline. It's so frustrating when I'm playing a single player game with no problems then an update happens and I have to break my mods because steam forces me to update.

Steam lets you disable auto updates on a per-game basis

It's a bandaid. The moment the files get corrupted, or brand new computer... You're f'd.

Except as soon as it realizes an update is ready it will make you update before you can play. The only way to stop it is to stay in offline mode all the time so that it doesn't check for updates to your games.

All the auto update disable does is keep it from automatically doing the update but it'll still force you to update.
