    Once a week i sometimes disconnect from steam for a few seconds and it autoreconnects, this does not affect steam games like left4dead where i just carry on playing and dont notice the disconnect in the background, only my friends list is gone but i stay on the server and play just fine, with mnc a message pops up on my screen saying steam is disconnected, i get kicked and have to rejoin the server lossing all my upgrades.

    Could the game just ignore any momentary steam disconnects?

    This needs bumped, because this is a legitimate issue, particularly when there are steam downtimes. The fact that the lack of Steam servers can cause game-wide disconnects is pretty ridiculous, and this kind of dependency needs lessened/removed. This was of particular issue today, where an entire scrim server was dropped during a round, which is just not cool.

    Hope to see this changed at least sometime soon.

    EDIT: Hopefully I didn't sound too hostile, but I would like to see this addressed. Uber has done an awesome job with the game so far, so I'm already expecting good things ahead.
