How is it that the requirement of internet connection is not clear enough to the buyer? Whether I have dsl, cable or modem connection I still have internet connection and I CAN authenticate the product thus unlocking it so I can play offline. How would you say they should have specified this? "Must have internet connection to authenticate your product" ? Trust me, even THAT would not have been enough for many.
And why is everyone is crying over steam being installed on their system?... I didnt hear anyone crying over the won portion of the hl game being installed so people could play online, but now that steam is installed and viewed completely separate from the game, NOW people cry about it? common ... arent we getting a little demanding here? Plus, the installation requirements included the total amount of harddrive needed... this included the steam authentication engine. |

The problem is ... you probably tried steam at it's early stage. The word "OMFGWTFBBQ?!" applied on it , it killed a part of TFC me thinks. The program was un-stable ... it's still is ... i could log-on 1/100 of the times i tried. Steam ain't that bad when it works. It pissed off a lot of people. What i don't know is if "Valve's Contract ended with Won" , how come could we still play 1.5 ?

I can see that point. With all of this, I am sure the makers will have learned a couple of things with this new revolutionary way of delivering a product, and will adjust accordingly in their future releases.

OK fair enough, it isn't feasible. "Impossible" is a pretty strong word though!
