Guys...
Being a bit of a noob when it comes to steam usage, please bare with me as far as the noob questions go. :E I`ve browsed through the forum but not come across any of the questions/answers I`m looking for.
When I download a demo or a game, where do they get downloaded to?
Can`t seem to find them on the pc anywhere so do they get downloaded elsewhere? Steam account or somewhere?
Plus when I`m playing hl2 or any other game am I always online?
Can I play "off line"? Ifso, how do I do that?
Also how do I stop steam from auto downloading updates etc as I read somewhere that it`s best to do that when actually playing a game... (although I was happily playing hl2 the other night and when I stopped I had an update waiting for me and I never noticed any lag in game or anything...)
One last thing... I like to do a fresh OS quite regularly so how will doing that affect steam? (if atall)
Cheers...
