So you're still installing the Steam client or the client is going through some update process? Try to close all bandwidth hogging applications such as torrents & PPStream. At the same time, ensure that those sharing the same broadband line with you is not running those 2 types of aforemtioned applications. They're the main reason why Steam failed to login & slow updates / downloads.

EDIT: You can try to change your Steam download region as well by following the steps below. Try to change to HK (China) or anywhere nearer.

Change your Download Region

On Windows
1. Start Steam
2. Go to Steam > Settings > Downloads tab
3. Under Download region, select a different but relatively close region.
4. Try launching or installing the game once more

can't load the steam yet..platform updater downloading is still at 84%..
