Is there a way to install the release version without the patches?

I have it. I just want to go back and save a backup of the first instal to try offline.

Did you try installing without internet access?

Installing it from the disk without internet access at all should do the trick. If you guys are doing this, please let me know which is the version of the original game. I need it for my timeline (it's the only version number I do not have), and I'm too lazy to try and do it myself.

And btw, I've saved a backup revert from 1.05.15950 to 1.03.15527.

You can't install a steam game without internet connection.
