And Nick, the only games you should need a connection for are games that handle multiplayer through Steam, like Team Fortress 2. In addition to the "start offline" when you don't have a connection, you can pick "go offline" from the menu even with a connection.

I think the only exceptions are some cases pertaining to Steam Guard (e.g. the first time you log in from a new machine, maybe a periodic login thereafter?) and actually downloading stuff from their servers. I do think that specific publishers can set stricter standards for their games.

Sinner you clever fellow ;)

We do know that young Melodie Pond regenerated only once prior to meeting the Doctor so it can't be her. I'm very intrigued to see where this new twist will lead.

I dunno if any of u picked up on 2 things 1. the camera began and zoomed in on the name of the pub Clara was working "The Rose & Crown" and 2 the girl Clara was with at the end in the cementary was Melody Pond pre River I ran that scene 4 times to be sure

Re: Doctor Who?...

That is a good point. River is always going on about how "clever" the Doctor is.

I joined the Steam group and it seems it no longer shows how much time members have spent in certain games, which is a good thing because then you'd see the obscene amounts of time I've spent with certain games.

This just a wild theory I have, but seeing as how his "wife" River wasn't shown and the fact that Clara has died *at least* twice centuries apart makes me wonder if they're gonna go that route and just claim it's River regenerated.


I thought about that too as their personalities are similar but River gave up her ability to regenerate to save The Doctor's life in the "Let's Kill Hitler" episode. I know River is a bit old for the current Doctor but I love how the actress plays her and hope they don't recast her. :unsure:

Have you tried it since getting back online? I did put Steam into offline mode while online and then back into online mode. Then I turned off the network adapter and tried it. Maybe that had something to do with it.

That's really odd! I tried over and over to connect to mine and it wouldn't let me. :(

I was curious about the offline thing. So, I turned off my network adapter (to simulate a lose of connection to the Internet) When I started Steam, it gave me this message:



I was able to access my games in offline mode with no apparent issues. From my limited research, you have to have all files uptodate in order to do it though.

I have to say that it's become an addiction for me too. I've almost turned into a junkie looking for decent games to play that are on sale. :lol:

It was a good special, but I didn't quite get it. How can Clara die twice? Hopefully, they'll explain that bit later on.

Steam is a very bad habit for me lol, all these to-die-for games for cheap and my IRL social life goes out the window. My one complaint is that you require an internet connection to play the games you buy. Sometimes I like having good old fashioned, non-MMO PC games on my laptop so that I can play something even when there's no WiFi and steam doesn't really let you do that.

Yes, that really annoys me too. One day the internet was out where I live so I decided just to sit down and play some DAO, but Steam wouldn't let me. :( I was not a happy boy. They have an Offline mode, but you have to go online first to enable it!
