METASERVER FIXED!!!
In the bottom right hand corner of Defcon it says,
Re: METASERVER FIXED!!!
I have been investigating this problem and I have found that our metaserver has been losing its connection to Steam fairly regularly. During the time that it takes to re-establish the connection, the metaserver stalls completely causing other requests not to be serviced.
I've applied a fix to the metaserver to workaround this problem so that it shouldn't stall anymore. We're still investigating why the connection drops in the first place.
Fingers crossed it's fixed now, but please do let me know if you're still experiencing difficulties.

ABOUT GOD DAMN TIME JOHN!!!
Steam problems?
Can anyone tell me about the current situation with Steam authentication problems? I remember seeing some discussion about Steam users being forced to [DEMO] even though they've paid for the game.
I don't use Steam personally but a friend just purchased the game and can't get it to authenticate.

Had no problems whatsoever after server list fix.
Re: METASERVER FIXED!!!
I dont use steam but from reading about the topic: it seems to me to be a good idea to trigger a re-auth by deleting the demokey, otherwise you are stuck with the demokey until steam issues a re-auth itself, which will take quiet some time. Might be nonsense, thought.

After writing to support@introversion.co.uk and adding a post to this thread on steam http://steamcommunity.com/app/1520/disc ... 705336666/ Introversion fixed the problem. It was fixed on a saturday! Though the problem occurs to many players i guess the fix has to be done individually, because ?steam? issued a new 'game-key' that does fully authenticate defcon for me now again, others still have problems.
Have a look at that discussion on steam to get a clearer picture.

Yeah, I've been having problems with high latency on the metaserver and on individual games for the last week. As usual, my primary hypothesis is my terrible ISP
