Help! Team Fortress Patch??

Heroblade · Aug 12, 2004, 02:47 AM

I know its an old game but I just got it and wanted to play Team Fortress online...The thing is when you click on quick start or multiplayer it says I need to run the patch...Simple right? I have 1.0 but need 1.5 patch. It gives me a failure message saying it is out of date but there are no updates to update -_-... I check configure and it says I might be behind a firewall. I disabled the local connection firewall and nothing happend. Was wondering if there is a way to find out if there are other firewalls that i'm not aware of. Either that or I might need a Proxy, but I have no idea what the Host and Port is (or how they work) since someone installed the cable for me, someone please help!!

I think you need to download Steam, it will update it for you.

Steam says the key is already registered. My step dad gave me this cd and says he only plays counter strike but this is a half life cd and I dont see counter strike on it anywhere (disc of 3 adrenaline pack and none is counter-strike) so I dont see what the issue is and I dont want to mail in my cd key "which may be costly and should be used as a last resort"...Totally clueless and seeking the vast wisdom of the infinite (blah blah)....If anyone could send me an extra key since I already own a copy of game is e-mail me at heroblade@charter.net (not sure if thats legal?) Any further assistance would be greatly appreciated
