If players are offline, the service will store the data and then add it to the network on the next connection. According to Valve, saved games and configurations will be stored forever. Valve further noted that the service will be freely available to developers, and is set to launch in the "near future." The company also detailed plans for several new Steam systems, like driver auto-updater and calendar functionality.
Another feature in development is a system-requirement checker. The program will analyze your hardware and compare it to multiple games, estimating your performance and recommending upgrades.

If you do this, you can barrel into the middle of the enemy camp like you were part of The A-Team and go guns blazing (though this isn't going to be easy, as the AI in Far Cry 2 are pretty good about firing back).
