LORD_ORION Posted March 4, 2004 Share Posted March 4, 2004 Wait it gets better..... e-mail validation is not working yet. So those of us who got hosed on the update and had to reinstall get hosed again when it finally starts to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-TK421--Bane Posted March 4, 2004 Share Posted March 4, 2004 Half-Life crashed three times in a row already, which resulted in two restarts, but it still didnt help me in receiving my quality FA time. WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU STEAM PEOPLE!!! First rule of marketing - never issue a flawed product. Unless you're strong in customer support.

k_town Posted March 4, 2004 Share Posted March 4, 2004 here's what steam has to say-lol i guess we with the problems will have to wait it out.LATEST STEAM NEWSSteam StatusMarch 3, 2004, 8:09 pm · Erik Johnson Since this morning's update was released, the Steam network has been overloaded, causing many Steam users to be unable to login. Until the Steam content servers are able to catch up with demand, some users will continue to experience slowness or unresponsiveness from the Steam client. We've been making some changes to the content servers today to accelerate this recovery, and we expect conditions to improve quite a bit by tomorrow morning.Thanks, again, for your patience after this update.

Arnie Posted March 4, 2004 Share Posted March 4, 2004 Now i cant login, i hate it.. Why they wanna send someone to mars and are not able to solve the easiest problem in the world: to connect to a server and check login and passes ?? I hope the mars explorers not use anything like Steam ... Ha, i know why Nasa has lost connection, a while ago, to one of the mars robots: they couldnt connect: i think they used Steam..

Grits Posted March 4, 2004 Share Posted March 4, 2004 how do i get it to give me validation code?!?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RancidMeat Posted March 5, 2004 Share Posted March 5, 2004 Well here is the reason, at least its a good one.March 4, 2004, 3:12 pm · Greg CoomerThis morning at about 8:30 PST, Steam was hit by a distributed denial of service attack. For about two and a half hours, Steam and its games were unavailable to users. We have since fixed the problem, and player numbers have returned to a normal state.Steam's content servers are still busy with yesterday's update, but for the most part Steam users have been able to get up and running without problems.The new email validation feature has been causing some users confusion. Our network problems have caused the validation emails to be delivered too slowly -- if you are waiting to receive your automated email response from Steam, please give it some time. We're sorry if this is causing inconvenience; the delivery speed will be improved soon.Let us know if you're experiencing any other problems.

Eskimo Posted March 5, 2004 Share Posted March 5, 2004 To make a long story short, they released yet another faulty version. Got to love it . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eskimo Posted March 5, 2004 Share Posted March 5, 2004 btw if you get a validation error when trying to join a game: do a exit and logout from steam then login again it worked for me. Now if it wouldn't give me 1200-1500 ping spikes i would be happy. But like i said before got to love it . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
