for those of you who might have the problem of not being able to start up steam and play online, there is another way.....



start steam in offline mode and just connect to a server from there out.

Yeah but a lot of times offline mode doesn't work. It wants to validate a lot or something...

Unfortunately the last steam downtime log me out automatically (And no, I did not choose log out and exit since I test my map in offline mode), so I could not even get in to offline mode
