Steam Problem (so what else is new)
When I try to join a game from within steam, it tries updating half life and gives me an error (The game is currently unavailable. Please try again at another time).
It has been giving me that message since yesterday (I haven't played ns this week and tried yesterday). Is there a solution to this, or is this a problem on steams side. Is there possibly a way to manually update this. I tried rebooting and restarting steam.
Thanks.
I love gaming, mmmmmmmm

Re: Steam Problem (so what else is new)
Seems I got it to work. My windows date was not correct. I set it to the correct date and the half life update downloaded.
Maybe the updater checks the current date on your computer with the date of the latest update (which would not be very bright). Anyway, it seemed to do the job. **swears at steam**

lmao @ Steam

Apophis: I haven't seen anyone say that SM's are better than non-SMs. Nordbomber: This is THE first server I've seen where either side can comeback from out of seemingly nowhere with the right teamwork. en4rcment: I have NEVER experienced the type of gameplay that I have found here. Nightly I am amazed at the personalities and gaming talent.

I wish i could have seen this sooner. I made a post about this about 3-4 days ago on the steam help problem
Same thing had happened to me. I then found the solution and posted it

How do you think Windows Update works?
