I also have issues with authentication, but on server side. Almost all my servers (16 of 18) cannot establish connection to Steam servers. VAC can`t become active, no items loadout, no quickplay participating. There is a couple of servers that can authenticate well, but even them sometimes loose

You just don't understand if there were not hats you wouldn't have a now 6 year old game as popular as it still is. Bute i agree. TF2 has many aspects of playing. Now the gameservers owning one does not make us enjoy it. Thats sad. Hope i will have enough patience to not shut my servers down
