7 days= 1 week.....

"IMPORTANT: I cannot believe I just now remembered this, but when I was on the tour, Gabe told me that Steam would begin to send Half-Life 2 the game to individual's hard drives a week before it released via Steam. I'm assuming this is for people that choose in advance to get it from there. A Steam employee also told me that the material sent to your hard drive would he heavily encrypted, in order to prevent anyone from playing any of the game early. And obviously, people would be notified in advance that the material was being sent to their hard drives. If this is the case, then an announcement would need to be made no later than next tuesday (the 22nd) for it to be sent by the 30th via Steam."

[poseyjmac]

you can login to steam, but the actual content servers are down.

 

[FriScho]

They are not down, here Steam works normal... just playing CS in a window *headshot* - works perfect.... even logout/login works flawless... what are these servers for of not for serving CS?

 

[Organizer]

OMG all those servers are d0wn

 

[poseyjmac]

[kinggi]

biggest suprise in all of game history if gabe releases the encrypted half life 2 with a video of him in his underwear dancing while singing " fuk you fragmaster"

 

[FriScho]

"downloading de_vegas.wad" - works....

and it also says "STEAM IS ONLINE"

strange

"This page last updated: 11:04am, September 23 2003 (Pacific Time, GMT -8)

[poseyjmac]

nm it works ehehe

 

[GraphicFoxx]

One thing to note about this-it says this page last updated at 1104 am. As of now, it's 1208 pm. Could be that they're back up (as FriScho has noted that it's working fine for him) and they just haven't updated the page.
[edit] damn. rob beat me to it

 

[ray_MAN]

For me they work fine.

 

[kinggi]

ah damnit i want my half life 2 now!!!!

 

[Guest]

*proceeds to kill himself*

 

[rob.derosa]

Maybe they forogt to update the page

 

[jonlu69]

The servers listed on the status page are not the ONLY content servers.

 

[Joneleth]

Joneleth says:
Any clue why the Steam website says all the content servers are down?
JohnC says:
all the servers are currently up and working, they could be working on improving the status page

 

[rob.derosa]

Now there is a runtime error every time I update the page.... very annoying

 

[Organizer]

Gah godamnit son of a mother ****!!!

 

[kinggi]

someone tell gabe that if he doesnt release the game hes gonna poison all the worlds twinkies.

 

[nostgard]

ROFL. Looks like their SQL server is getting overloaded.

 

[FriScho]

download completed and i played in a new map, worked flawless...

 

[kinggi]

^ BE QUIET YOU LIE!!!

 

[Joneleth]

Yeah. Read what I posted.

 

[Demonmerc]

i wouldn't get your panties in a bunch until you see the little HL2 icon on the games list.

Remember that CS has a buggy shield to fix...

 

[Joneleth]

And for those who don't know, JohnC works at Valve.
