There was an attack yesterday too with Steam being down but it was much shorter.

its too early for steam maintenance, also steam maintenance doesnt make steam load this slow (it was down at the time of this thread.)

Dunno for how long. I was too busy playing single player game and almost failed to notice this major server hiccup. It seemed rather severe even by Tuesday standards, both on client (black screen) and browser (errors).

According to Articles I read a massive DDoS was suspected as other Platforms went down at the same time. Something about Aisuru Botnet. Nothing has been confirmed though.
