Forum:I bought the game installed steam what next ?

Hi folks,

I am new to Steam and Left 4 Dead. I installed steam (not the game on the retail cd?) and now I am flabbergasted what to do next ... Ok ok I have plenty of experience with Gamespy, EA servers and Ubi.com but Steam no sir. Is the some place where I download the game after having entered my cd key ?

Kind regards

Me


 * When you have your Steam client open, there should be a "games" tab at the top. Click on that and it will give you a list of all the Steam games you have purchased.  You should see Left 4 Dead (and it should have started downloading automatically).  If it is not downloading, right click on it and there should be a download option.  Now just wait 5 - 6 hours and you should be able to play.  Hope this helps!  --MadDawg2552 20:59, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
