Counter Strike Junkie

Everyone loves a good rumor. Don’t lie to me, I know you do. The latest rumor comes from the mod team for Synergy. A forum posting (now since edited) revealed that the Synergy mod and four others will be able to be downloaded and updated via Steam through the use of the Steamworks SDK.

I would also like to inform you that we will be releasing Synergy and future updates through Steam! Valve Software has allowed us to do so by giving us access to the Steamworks SDK.

We are honored to be one of the four (sic) first selected mods to be given this opportunity. We will certainly put this to good use!

For you players, this means that you will see Achievements and Stats coming to Synergy in later updates. (Not to mention the automatic updates, provided by Steam.)

It certainly looks as though they let the cat out of the bag a little too early as the post has been edited to remove all of the above quoted information.

A little snooping around in the Steam registry content found the names of the other mods that may appear on Steam in the near future.

• D.I.P.R.I.P. Warm Up

• Insurgency
• Zombie Panic! Source
• Age of Chivalry

Those four mods, in addition to Synergy may end up be coming to Steam. Nothing has been announced by Valve yet, but we’re hoping to hear back on it soon.
