New Steam UI

[Snotnarok]

There's a new steam user interface if you opt to try the beta. It's kinda neat, I was hoping they'd eventually update the look.

I'm not sure how I feel about it yet, but it's cool looking so far.

Anyone else try it? Your feelings?

Edit:

For those of you who can't take the 3 seconds it takes to look for it:

It's in settings, and on that very page, you opt for the new UI beta.

I should give that a try...

Pics or it didn't happen.

Or you could not be rude and take freakin' 5 seconds to look for yourself? It's a beta, it's not a mandatory download you have to go to your steam settings and opt for the beta. Why would I lie about a new interface?

Edit:

There, because it didn't happen.

It's real. And it suuuuuuuucks.

I think it looks great. I like it so far. It'll take a bit to get used to though we've used that old UI for such a long time.

Damnit! I opted for the beta, and now Steam keeps crashing.

Yeah pics or it didn't happen? How do you activate it?

Go into your Settings, and you should see a section showing what betas you're participating in. There will be a little drop-down menu with the UI beta in it. Just choose that, and then restart Steam when prompted.

I am really liking the new look.

Unfortunately the new UI is bugged, at least for MW2 owners. It forces a re-download of the MW2 multiplayer. It automatically deletes the MW2 multiplayer if you install the new UI so don't do it unless you dont mind downloading MW2 all over again. I did and now Im rather angry.

Sweet, a game filter...

Prolly represents Valve's personal opinion on what a shooter should be! Hehehe.

Looks pretty pro, if I do say so myself...

I have to agree, I like the more modern design, and it kind of reminds me a bit of the Zune interface.

It looks better if you switch the different views for the game list.

The biggest issues with it is (besides MW2 redownload) is you get no community/store pages, but that's okay for me, because it saves money.

I'm in it now. It looks awesome, but there are bugs....MANY BUGS!!! Not to mention the whole Steam community issue that's going on right now, I tried to make a forum account to submit bug reports but it completely forgot that I exist as a user x.X. I'm sure Valve will get it working(this is a beta) and once they do it will be a lot more functional than the old UI.
