Steam Update

Steam News announces the availability of a new Steam update that addresses a bunch of bugs in the content delivery system (thanks Frans). There is an accompanying update that outlines future updates that include a new version of Counter-Strike, a new version of Day of Defeat, and a new friends and server browser.

The thread referenced in "Here's a post everyone should read..." has the quote:

Chris Deeming: Will Steam be required to have an internet connection active when starting up a singleplayer game or a LAN game?

Gabe Newell: No, it won't.

There will be a brief transition (like two weeks) when it is necessary, but then it will go away. It's a temporary issue.


Fantastic! The guy didn't quote the e-mail headers like many who quote Valve e-mails, but I'm happy to believe it's true.

Maybe the 2 week delay is to help them with their Steam work. That's cool. Anything to help mush out the bugs.
