Duelus Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 Ok, I installed steam, but when I try to login, it says that steam is having trouble connecting to the internet? This only happens when I put the correct password in, if I put an incorrect password it says that I cannot login becuase my pass is incorrect which means its still connecting to the internet?! I'm totally stumped on this one, I can't figure out whats causing it, all I want to do is play hl2 which I fricken bought, steam sucks. any suggestions? anyone got there phone #?

Sparda Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 Steam is horrible, and I class it as Adware. Every time I open it it tells you "You can buy Episode one for $19.95" (which it isn't worth any way). I might just block the images it downloads just to remove the ads.

I might just block the images it downloads just to remove the ads. i saw a definition of a virus a few months ago and it was something like this "A program to uses alot of space, cpu, and makes annoying popups. Sometimes can be harmful to the computer." is it just me or does steam fit that perfectly? My steam folder is about 10 gb, it uses alot of cpu and those damn popups.... and i think it is harmful to the computer, it annoy's me so much i just want to hit my damn computer.... its ok computer, i dont really mean it...

rFayjW98ciLoNQLDZmFRKD Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 I think steam is a good idea, except it is poorly implemented. They should sell the download games for less then the retail verson. It should have a much smaller footprint on your system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 Steam is like communisim a great idea on paper but was never executed properly also i belive PWs are stored on your local machine as well as the online servers, so it would, in theory auth twice for security Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaKo Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 I love it when its easyer to pirate something than do it legitimately, but the dev teams should probally take notice. Unless there in meetings with the board members pulling there hair out at yet another shit idea from on high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaveMan Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 Steam is like communisima great idea on paper but was never executed properly thats the best line ive heard all week also, have you tried port forwarding 27005, i believe steam needs it for no real reason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparda Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 no, steam dosn't need to be able to listen on any ports. (If thats what you where saying) I'm behind two hardware firewalls and it works... not that I want it to work... I just want to play the games.
