New community features promised

 

Valve has announced it will be updating its digital distribution platform, Steam, with new community features this summer.

 

The update will allow users to create personal Steam pages and profiles, create and join groups, schedule games with friends, review post-game stats, and chat to groups and via voice.

 

These new features will be compatible with all Steam games, not just new releases.

 

"Adding these new community features to make it easier to connect with other gamers is something we've wanted to see on Steam for a long time and this latest update is just the start," said Valve's Gabe Newell.

 

"We've got a long list of items that we're working on to make it easier for gamers to connect and play games on Steam."

 

The update, the largest since Steam's initial release in 2004, will be available free of charge online and via the Steam client.

Why cant valve work on things like... making hit boxes hit polygons and dealing with the fact that even bots hit boxes don't match up with their toons... Hopefully they won't fuck steam up. Anyone remember dynamic pricing? Yeah... this could be bad.

they should fix the muting system

 

It only seems to only not work when a player is mic spamming like hell, with no admins around... know what I mean? :rolleyes: And the friends list is still kinda glitchy sometimes... hopefully they'll fix that too...

you said it.

 

Havin new weapons would be cool, but like pancake said, it would be imba for a while.

 

Plus, we all know that valve/steam couldn't even contemplate balancing new weapons; there are too many problem that are ongoing that they havent even tried to fix...
