Im new to steam, I just got it this morning.

I was wondering if you could tell me what the tools do, and tell me your names on steam so I can add you, and tell me your fravorite games on Steam, thanks.

You're welcome ARC

Tools are pretty much dedicated servers

Steam is awesome, you should have gotten it long ago.

I like how most of the people on this forum think that you need to add everyone. No, you don't.

Do I have to buy the game that the dedicated server goes with, cause it says dowload, and it doesnt have anything about paying...

Tell me what you know about the tools please!

Dedicated servers can be hosted without actually owning said game.
Tools are mainly dedicated servers and modification tools.
I'd really recommend the Valve Complete Pack or the Orange Box, they're great packs well worth the cost.

You can download the dedicated server, but you can't actually play the game that goes with it unless you buy it

Damn....  So you cant play the game without buying it?
I wanted to play L4D but I cant play M.  It sucks that I cant play M

What is Counterstrike rated at?  And its multiplayer right?

Your computer may not be able to handle it anyway.
Do you know what specs your computer has?
If you don't run dxdiag, you can get to it via searching in the start menu/using the "Run" function on the start menu.


In a way....

Haha, oh wow.

Anyway, why do they give new members on steam all those dedicated server tools? When I first joined a few years ago, it did the same thing.

I've already bought and played portal....  It will work.

So users can make another account on a different computer in order to host a server while they still play.
