Not even to show estimated time remaining?
Hmm, it shows that when you double click on the game.
Not even to show estimated time remaining?
Learn to read, the OP quite clearly said in numerous posts that speed is not the problem. I agree to some extent that it should say amount downloaded out of total, but the way it works at the moment is fine for me and never had a problem with it.
Truthfully the Steam UI is a little sparse. This hasn't ever affected me though as i've never had a problem with it. When i download a game, i make sure i'm doing it at a time when i'm not sitting at my PC waiting for it to finish ( ie sleeping or out for the day).
No doubt if ever i suffer from an issue though, i'd require a little more information than steam provides. As mentioned though, there are options in the menus for it.
