Ok ive just updated but found i couldnt connect to any servers.
INVALID STEAM TICKET USERID or something similar.
Problem solved by logging out of STEAM and then logging back in.
Hope this helps if anyone else is struggling.

jip got the same.
But i got 3 or 4 updates today from steam :(
I've been stuck on the dreaded 30% mark for 20 mins. Take alook at the Steam forums. Lots of disgruntled Steamsters out there. Might be another b0rked update.

Try a restart. Usually helps when it gets stuck there.
... and also do not use any other internet applications at the same time. It seems like it gets stuck more easy if you do.
Downtime Complete; Steam Update Released
November 12, 2003, 8:11 am · Greg Coomer
The Steam scheduled downtime and maintenance has been completed. We have also released a small Steam update. Note that there is currently an issue preventing many of our users from connecting to game servers (User ID Ticket Error 34). A fix will for this problem will be released momentarily
my understanding of momentarily was quite soon :( steam guys use a different time scale to the rest of us i think :(
Restarted - left for 2mins at 30%. Restarted - left for 2 mins at 30%. Restarted - BINGO!
:huh:
Can't get on server. My Steaming ticket's damp or sumfink.
I know that feeling!!

This has been fixed -- if you are still experiencing the problem, please restart Steam. Let us know if you continue to have trouble.

What I had to do ...
Go to Steam settings.
Logout.
Close Steam.
Start Steam.

My client is OK but my server is screwed :(
Get the famous 28% mark then nothing. Of course you can't get Steam to start ot log out of it to fix the problem GRRR! :angry:
Even worse, MH, Homer and Balders seem to be borked too as my client has updated but I can't join because it says the server is running an older version :(
I just can't wait to pay money for this :angry: :ph34r:
Ok ive just done a steam update (or u could say steam forced me into it but it wont let me log onto the servas because they are using an older protocall ???????? 46 so has the serva not had this update then?

Looks like there's been a server update so I need to stop/restart our servers.

Good luck! I restarted my server an hour ago and it still won't work because steam won't start.
Meathook has been updated and restarted. Looks like players are joining OK so i'll do Baldric next.
