This is the last full month that Valve will be supporting Steam on Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 before support is abandoned on 1/1/24, due in part to Chromium and its Embedded Framework also abandoning these platforms. Any future TF2 updates that moves the minimum Steam client version beyond the last one available for 7/8.1 will render it unplayable unless you upgrade Windows.

And the servers are still fucked on by bots . What’s the point of this update if I’m constantly fucking vote kicking these ghost steam accounts these nerds keep making, that’s the fucking only thing I want for Christmas! Valve can make content but if it’s littered with that shit it’s not worth the headache. Id rather play uncletopia
IMO VALVE owes that dude some money because he is providing the only real casual experience. Unless they wanna start directing traffic to his shit, I will continue to protest that horseshit I don’t give a fuck about counter strike 2, half life 3, vr updates, new steam decks, I don’t want that shit. They just want the money and they keep ignoring the most annoying problem.
