Steam UI Update

[Fireye]

Steam put out a new beta UI. It gets rid of the IE integration (uses a webkit based browser I think), reworks the entire layout, and also re-works the Steam Overlay in-game. I think it's pretty awesome, as it's using less memory than before while also being more responsive. The new Library UI interface is interesting, and I like seeing some stats displayed about the games I play.

i hate it.

i un-opted my way out as soon as i opened up the new ui.

i don't want that shit.

It would definetley take some getting used to.. but if this new UI lets me download at 19 MB/S then I am all for it. (Look at the fifth picture from the left)

:scoff:

19? i'm pretty sure i get faster already. if not, then 20 min for mass effect 1 is fast enough for me.

WHAT?! Who the fuck is your internet provider? Skynet? I'm lucky if I can even get close to 700 Kb/s

I get 15-20megaBITS/s down from steam usually (if I get a good content server). I'm on a 25/25 line from verizon.

LOL Anex. Indian Tear. anyway, I dont really like it.. looks the same really just darker imo.

I see people are afraid of change. Anyways, I like it. It's more responsive. The alt+tab menu while in game is pretty nice and sleek. It's def not dark especially if you were using the standard dookie brown color lol. That's the point though. It's a beta and it's looking for feedback. They also got rid of the stupid IE browser that is so slow. So mega plus.

i get 4gB/sec ethernet from drexel, so i got god internets. 5 latancy in all ibis servers is a plus.

I just hope they don't do a youtube beta switch to us and force everyone
to use the new format.

If it ain't broke don't fix it.

[acolyte_to_jippity]

agreed. i hate the new youtube format

Ethernet =/= internet.

My internet speed is 16Mb, but sometimes i get more. downloading at 2.2MB a sec is beast

Best I have ever gotten from steam was like 5MB for a few min on cable.

damn you really got bad connection
I get 30 mbps for downloads from steam and 42 mbps on normal internet browsing

I wonder when Xfinity comes out if I will get 100Mbps. That would kick ass!. I want to know the upload speed.
They have it in DC already and thats just a quick drive away

Edit: wtf I cant find the upload speed anywhere!. they just keep talking about download.
