It’s been a while since I have touched Steam, but after seeing the news that Valve pushed out new shit for it, I had to go re-download everything again. Needless to say, it is quite the improvement over the old ways. Let’s dive in a bit shall we?

One of the biggest additions is the “My SteamID”
For example if you follow this link to my SteamID profile you can see a lot of what has changed recently. You can have an avatar, information about yourself and favorite websites.

One of the best additions is the “Steam Group”, which Mad has already pointed out.
[Ht] Hostile Takeover Steam Group
Here everyone can join in public groups, or if the group is private you gotta be invited.
Along with that, it shows statistics of the entire group! Steam Rating, Playing Time, Member Average (playing time I am assuming), as well as breaking down what the users in the group play. Announcements can be made and you can schedule events as well.

The old stuff is still there such as friends list and the server listing, all in tact so no worries there. You don’t even need to use xFire with this since it handles all that already. So what are you waiting for? Are you going to play TF2? Download Steam Now and create an account then join the Hostile Takeover group!
