Game doesn't execute if Steam servers are down

This will be like this forever? Or sometime in the future the game will be able to execute when Steam servers are on maintenance?

And its not the first time I saw this, a month ago happen too.

Well, I could record a bit of the problem, it happen at 23:00 GMT+0 Tuesday, 18th, August.

On the first video when Steam servers are down you can see the AntiCheat splash, and the DirtyBomb process running a few seconds before closing itself.
On the last video you can see the Friend List working, even friends connecting after the downtime, and DirtyBomb loading normally, AntiCheat splash, DB splash, etc.
