Restoring LAN multi-player, direct IP connection and GFWL

Downgrading[8]
  1. Download this archive and extract it.
  2. Copy the extracted content to <path-to-game> and overwrite the existing files. If present, also delete xlive.dll from the game's folder.
  3. Launch the game from Steam and enter your key when the game asks. After you activate the game, matchmaking (and all achievements associated with it) becomes available once again.[9]
This does not bypass neither remove Steam DRM. Steam is still required to run the game in addition to GFWL.

Game will not launch on system with more than 12 CPU cores

Install DOW2CoreFix

Download DOW2CoreFix Profiler.dll into the game's directory. This limit the game to only 12 CPU cores.
