Half-Life is out of date??? Created 20 years ago2004-08-01 23:05:19 UTC by Griz

When I try playing Counterstrike, TFC, Half-Life I get the same message saying I have an 'out-of-date version' of Half-Life. Then it goes through the procedure to check the internet for updates. Once done checking, it says there are no newer versions of the game. I'm running on 1.1.1.0 right now and use Steam. Can anyone help? I'm trying to make a TFC map which is a couple of days away from finishing. I just need to get this working. Thanks.

Steam and 1.1.1.0? AFAIK, the most recent steam build is 1.2.0.0 or something along those lines. Make sure Steam is allowed to access the internet by your firewall and that the games are set to automatically update when they find a newer version.

no it is happening to everyone it happened to me and 5 friends and ours have been working fine for about a few years now...just click cancel and continue on to join a game.

Er, steam hasn't even been out for a 'few years'. Less than a year if I'm not mistaken.

You'll want the most recent update, nonetheless, in order to play with other people. Just set the games to auto-update and Steam'll make sure theyre always up to date so this problem can be (hopefully) solved and won't occur in the future.

lol rabidmonkey, steam is already a few years old!.

im not loving steam at all ive spent most of the weekend updating hl and steam etc and STILL cant play online

i upgraded hl 1.1.1.0 to steam in 10 mintues, 20 minutes later all my games where updated!

I upgraded hl and games in 3hours

the confederacy of dialup HLers versus steam is an ongoing lawsuit. m0p is my lawyer.

Really now. I though it came out last October. I remember reading an article about VALVe's 'proprietary content distribution system, Steam, being released this month' in some paper or PCGamer or something. Maybe i'm thinking of the wrong article.
