by my calculation, it wont be ready for another hour & 20 mins.

Edit: what do I know. its updating now. update is out

http://www.steampowered.com/index.php?area=news&id=107833004701796400

Edit2: Bloody impossible as usual to get the update. & whenever I get to update it gets to 99% & then says try later. crappy thing.

Well, the login screen shows up, but the Steam network still seems to be down. I can't access it at all, and it's been happening to a few others. [addsig]

Yes, the steam network is completly down at the moment.

But you guys wanted it offline (just kidding) I'm sure there's just an overwhelming amount of people simultaniously trying to download from them or something like that.

[EDIT]
There's an easy way to check to see if Steam is up or not, just try going to their site, since it's running on the same servers, you'll know
Kind of makes their status page usless, huh?

SO.. how the hell does the offline feature work? I'm trying to set up a LAN game and all I can seem to do is start a net game. [addsig]
