UPDATE: This issue is now resolved. https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/253230/view/3215015328427149675 The outage of Online Party due to a Steam Client update is ongoing. This outage impacts both standard online party as well as Vanessa’s Curse. We are continuing to work on a solution, but anticipate this outage to continue for several weeks as we identify and implement a solution. Playing Online Party and Vanessa’s Curse is not recommended at current, as your experience will vary. Given the great collaborative effort put forth to achieve Online Party, our hopes were to resolve this with the team at Valve. However, as the weeks have progressed, many of our communications have gone unanswered. As a result we are actively looking into external solutions that we'll be prototyping on the 'experimental' Steam beta starting Wednesday, April 6th. We apologize for the impact this has had, and want to thank you for your continued patience.
