Steam

[Slay]

Hi all :wave: I am starting to regret buying any games from steam, I have Satelite internet and if there is a cloud in the sky, my connection get's slower and slower. It has taken one full week to download Bioshock, I still have team fortress2 to download :( You don't ever get the actual software for the game, you just download through steam to play it. I think If you buy a game they should send you a copy of the game. My fault though, I should have read the agreement better before buying. I'm waiting on RAM and OS in the mail and I get to download them again on my new computer. Yay for me huh ? :confused:

I'm sorry to hear the trouble you're having but I am an avid fan of steam.
By not having to worry about keeping disks/codes I can have my games anywhere, whenever I want. You may want to redirect your dissatisfaction towards your internet provider that seems less than stellar....(pun intended :D)

Seems like you just got the short end of the stick with your ISP...

My only problem was bioshock, but thats not steam related.

I just heard some good news, :D Comcast is supposed to be here in the middle of next month :wootrock: I have a two year contract with my satelite provider, but I will pay them what ever they say I owe and drop them like a hot potato :D I'm so sick of the slowness, even my home page loads slow :down: .

Not getting Comcast, my brother was the one who said it was comming but obviously who'm ever he talked to didn't know what the heck he was talking about. I understand some people that have the good connections may like Steam but for me and the many out there it is just a program running in the background slowing things up. I can't even play single person games on steam if my connection is crappy ( normally is). I bought the game through Steam and I think there should be an option for getting the game sent on CD/DVD for just such people. But It could be worse, I could have payed full price for the games. :rolleyes:

Comcast is awful. I have it now that I moved to NJ, can't you get optimum?
