Have you tried the old trick of deleting the clientregistry.blob file and letting it remake it?

Already done that, all it does is it tries to download the updates, then fails again. I am this close to uninstalling it and reinstalling it again.

i think most pyros do that :p

someone accused me of cheating for killing a spy when he came around a corner, he soon shut up after i pointed out he ran past a sentry which didnt go off :p

i cant wait for the spy update, i'll be playing pyro 24/7 and setting everything on fire :D The demoman update on the other hand, i'll take a long time out from TF2

When is the spy update coming?

Someone got mad yesterday I was a spy, and ran up and face stabbed a demoman. he was ****ed.

Might be the best plan...although it is annoying :)

What the? I tried to uninstall it and suddenly the Steam window pops up, finishes updates and then asks if I want to uninstall Half-Life 2 :blink: . Now my Steam is working again, but I have no idea what I have done.

This was done on the server I frequent. Gotta love how they fire on "Can't Touch This" and screw up RED's feverish defense by wasting an uber :laugh:

I wasn't on then, but I caught someone doing it in Badwater Basin:

Hey, Audiobox, you need to try the GTFO servers ( http://www.gtfogaming.co.uk )

I found the skill level to be higher than Multiplay servers ;)

Yeah I quite like the GTFO servers although I'm on Wireplay the most! (DaVNiX!)

And LOL at your screenshot rm20010 :p

Well i usualy hang out on server 1 when i play, can be a pain to get on some days as the servers are SO popular. But it would be nice to see some neowin names on there some day :)

Team Fortress 2 blog update:

Makes sense now. I've always thought it was on an individual performance basis.

Leaving respawn times at their defaults keeps payload games balanced. On my frequently played server they tried fast respawn for everyone. Defense won 90% of the time, the 10% being when they really suck. Now that fast respawn has been removed, both sides have an equal chance of winning, assuming the teams are stacked evenly.

For CTF I like having fast respawn on. Makes for really long stalemates, perfect for gunning each other down repetitively. ;)

    • Steam Next Fest returns with thousands of new demos to try out by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Valve has been routinely kicking off demo festivals on Steam for years now, and the second drop of 2026 has just opened its doors. It's a great opportunity for any PC gamers to find some interesting games before they release. The June edition of Steam Next Fest is a week-long digital festival including gameplay slices from a large number of indie developers, though a few major publishers are involved this time too. Interested players can use the Next Fest hub page's various sorting and filtering options to easily sort through the hordes of demos available. The top buttons offer quick access to separate and important sorting options, including "By Genre, By Theme, By Feature," with each one offering more granular settings when clicked. At the same time, the built-in Steam tags system is also available below every page to discover new games more quickly. As always, logging in will also enable Steam gamers to utilize Valve's recommendation algorithms to find game demos they might like, specifically, depending on their past play and purchase histories. This time there is even a toggle now to swap between getting a random and personalized selection as Valve collects more data on the available demos. The Charts section is where you can find the most popular demos on the platform right now, offering up the most hyped titles in a simple list. Right at the kickoff, Mistfall Hunter, Empulse, Echoes of Aincrad, Onimusha: Way of the Sword, Over the Hill, Mortal Shell II, and more are trending. Expect this list to change as the week progresses. This edition of the Steam Next Fest is slated to end on June 22 at 10 AM PT. Valve's latest event is now open, and it can be accessed by going to the dedicated hub page here.
    • I lived and breathed MSN Messenger/Windows Live Messenger. Going to the mess.be website (still online with no changes since 2013) to download display pictures etc. I was a beta tester for Messenger Plus! and spent quite a lot of time on the MsgPlus! forums (a read-only copy is still online at https://shoutbox.menthix.net) Some old Neowin articles also https://www.neowin.net/news/messenger-plus-350/ good times but how time flies
    • Well i'll look into a docking station if needed and use that.    Normally i don't usually have all the drives connected at once,  usually once a month to sync the latest files, and then they go back in there storage area
