 Ok the update policy isn´t the best...
But since the update has been deployed this way and the servers are 
overloaded you have only two choices:

- be mad and swear the whole evening
- turn out the pc, let outupdate to its job relax and drink a beer.

Once again I'm set aghast in amazement how well Valve have handled the 
updates.


They are showing little evidence of having learned a thing about how 
to deploy such large updates despite having been burned several times 
on previous occasions. Not only can I not get my servers updated but 
most of the members of my steam group are completely unable to get the 
update.


Thoroughly unimpressed.

2010-10-05 Thread Ross Bemrose
 For whatever reason, this update is 3.5GB.  It appears that files from 
the original game are being updated in addition to new files from the 
DLC being downloaded.
