Steam WTF?

[Twitchy Racoon]

Heres the thing, I got TF2 for Mac, played a bit, turned off my computer, turned it back on several hours later, and now the fucking thing is missing!! I put an application of TF2 on my desktop, I open it and it takes me to the fucking store!! WTF?? Does this happen often to other Mac users??

Oh and before I forget I didnt actually BUY TF2, it just started downloading itself and I went along, still Im a little perplexed and annoyed as to how it just disappeared.

Any ideas?

That's how it's supposed to work. It was a free weekend, but it's over now. Basically, Steam will occasionally let people play for a game that doesn't have a demo free, but only for a short time.

Wasn't this weekend a freebie trial on Steam for TF2? My guess is the timer ran out

EDIT: Ninja'd

It was a free weekend to play the game. The free weekend is up. The game is gone Now you have to buy the game!

EDIT: whoa we must have all posted at exactly the same time, well all the responses were the same so there you go.

Search for steam on your computer, open it, then get to playing again? It's not that hard to search for programs...

Is the free weekend over yet?

EDIT- Ninja'd The time it took me to write that your question was answered

Man... If only they had made some kind of announcement in the same application you use to run it [http://store.steampowered.com/news/3930/], or if you could find it in some extremely easy to see place just by googling the name TF2... [http://www.tf2.com/post.php?id=3929&p=1] Or if the game application warned you that it was a free weekend as you were about to install it, or said how long you had to play in the menu of the application you installed it from!


...Oh wait.

 

[TBR]

Maybe you had to right click and check the...oh wait


Hey OP, how did you find the Pyro? Was running forward and holding M a good strategy?

 

[Irridium]

Damn there's a lot of unneeded hate going on 'round here.

OP it seems you got your answer. Free weekends over, but the game is still on sale until tomorrow. And Team Fortress 2 at $10, its a steal.

Its almost a big a steal as Morrowind at $5

 

[BlindMessiah94]

Or you could buy the orange box for $20.
