ok, heres the scoop. recently when i have been trying to play DOD or CS, i keep getting a messege that the game is currently unavailable please try back later. This is Bullshit(sorry my language) how can the game be unavailable. this is just pissing me off, and stopping me from playing. they either need to fix things asap or im done. i know some would agree with me. let me know if you guys are having this problem too, or im the only one, let me know.

Apparently Valve grossly underestimated the bandwidth needed for Steam. I think they had more than 500,000 people sign up on the first day. So, when Steam is "unavailable" just keep trying to reconnect, or try again later. Don't forget, you can still play HL/TFC/DOD without Steam.

Valve is aware of the Steam issues, and we should expect a patch/update soon. The good news is, your Steam client should update itself!
