Look people ..... This is how it is.
At this time there is nothing wrong with the Steam client. Steam works pretty good. Having updates automatically works good to and is a wonderful thing except ... The real problem is the updates, to this game or that, are not tested by Valve. This is the bad thing. What bugs me is that people keep saying, "Steam sucks" Be we must remember Steam is a content delivery and authentication system client. It is a totally separate piece of software that is not really connected to the game content of HL or CS or any other game they may add in the future. It's not Steam that sucks ... It's the untested updates to HL1 and CS et al... -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Rob Harwood Sent: Wednesday, July 28, 2004 2:24 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [hlds] Problems with steam client and HLDS I think people just start accepting it again before it gets made worse. -- Rob -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 28 July 2004 19:09 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [hlds] Problems with steam client and HLDS A) How come so many people have been running Steam servers for almost a year successfully, yet when one person doesn't read the docs and can't get it running, it is a failure. B) part of me wishes I had archived the crying and gripes from every version upgrade from the time I started playing/adminning HL (beta 6ish). It would be great to show people how silly it sounds, as they praise the "last good version" that at one time was the bane of their existence. C) why is A) a prevailing philosophy? _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
