What's the benefit of using steam3 over steam2(what we currently use)?
What about SteamId64, why not use it instead?

Currently it uses the common rendering of Steam2 (meaning it should be the same for all games) there's no real benefit to moving everything over at the moment, unless we were doing integration with community accounts or something like that. Any time we move something like that in the database it is a big, bloody hassle.

Valve have changed the default ID in CS:S to ID3.  (For example, when you type "Status" in console, it now shows ID3 rather than ID2).

The only problem with not changing is when ppl come asking for things, and provide their "steam id", they will now provide ID3 (since it's what is shown to them in game)...

Edit: It's the same in TF2.

I have source code if you need to convert between them.
