Did you run the troubleshooting steps? Particularly the one about playing in offline mode?

After June 14th Steam users report problems with getting started multiple games, including XCOM EW. They the error code (3) as you say. Try setting system date on your PC to June 13th and check if the game starts. I know - it is stupid solution to change date each time you run the game, but until steam support solves the problem...
