I'm getting this with the beta. Took 10+ mins to "update" this morning, restarting Steam (by ending in task manager and opening it again) made no difference, it was as if it was just sat there doing nothing. In the end I used -clearbeta to go back to normal and I was up and running in 20 seconds.

I've never had this issue with non beta, at least not since the first year or so of Steams release!

Whats the -clearbeta thing?

Steam is becoming more and more of an all encompassing programme. It is quite good really, as long as they keep the filesize down I really have no issue with it.

Wow. It's like 1Tb+ drives don't exist.

Why is a PC gamer worried about space?

User error. Works fine for me, never hangs. In a different league to Xfire i'd say, Steam ***!

nothing to do with user error - lol pull the other one.

Of course, Steam is a buggy pile of steaming **** :rolleyes:

Not like millions of gamers use it every day, 99.99% without incident or anything

Does anyone else have a nightmare trying to use thumb buttons on Logitech mice in Steam games? I upgraded my Logitech software the other day and it worked for a short while but then went back to not working. Sooooo frustrating. I have to turn off the Logitech software to get them to work.

I wonder if they'll make it soon that there's Steam videos.

This seems to be a first step to see maybe how the servers handle the load, it could pick up quickly into recording gameplay soon too.

And if they add live streaming as well then Xfire will be uninstalled from my system.

Set Point and the back/forward buttons works flawlessly for me on steam games. I usually bind the back button to pistol/secondary weapon for the the OMG OUT OF BULLETS!!!!1! moments
