    @Sheltyb803 @PlayStation @Steam I fully intended to get GTA 6 ok PS but with this I’d rather wait until it come out on PC. Not even a PS issue but the inconvenience and mental load of having to open my PS If I’m playing on PC, it’s not much, just more effort than I’m willing to give.

    @Steam #Issue Please fix verification option for logins. It's not working for me. A code is not being sent to my email. Their should be a "Resend Code" option AND/or a second option to send a code to your phone or some **** like that bro...

    @PlayStation support is pathetic and a scam. I can't wait for the @Steam Machine to come out, as I've had nothing but excellent customer service from @Steam_Support in the very few times I've needed it.

    @UbisoftSupport @Steam Remove the mandatory Ubisoft Connect login for games bought on Steam and things would already be so much better. Even better, just get rid of Ubisoft Connect entirely.

    @Steam So apparently your service can be hacked via cookies. My compromised account then is your fault and you should be liable for security negligence.

    @Steam Excuse me, but are you having again issues with Visa? I'm trying to buy a game but it keeps saying that it gets rejected.

  • JONEZZEEonMMA

    @Sheltyb803 @PlayStation @Steam Yes, Steam generally wants you to sign in periodically to verify your account credentials, maintain security, and update license information.

    @cloudiziac @Steam same issue I'm facing, I've been trying for days now. has it been resolved?

  • Codebot52

    Can't access @Steam because it's constantly stuck in "Waiting for Network" anyone have advice on how to fix this?

  • Xapdan
    Xap (@Xapdan) reported

    @valvesoftware @Steam This controller is great for what it is, but the biggest problem it'll have is when the Steam Machine comes out & have to plug in a mic directly into the Steam Machine to talk since there's no headset jack. I might be dumb but this might make couch play harder for casual players.

  • _Geotherma
    Geo Gaming (@_Geotherma) reported

    @Steam One of the big problems is that devs are often pushed to get a high metacritic score or steam rating off the bat for bonuses etc. And if they don't it's seen as a complete failure by the execs and stockholders, which is stupid. In today's gaming world, a game can grow/degrade.

    @UbisoftSupport @Steam The problem is YOUR ******* LAUNCHER YOU USELESS PIECE OF ****!

    @MatthewLauseng @Steam I mean, contacting their support team is usually step number one for any kind of issue… Have you even tried that?

  • Scare_29_Crow
    ScareCrow (@Scare_29_Crow) reported

    @Sheltyb803 @PlayStation @Steam It was mis-reported. Everyone gets a 30 day offline license, which converts to a permanent license after you login on the 15th day or later after purchase. All is good.

    @UbisoftSupport @Steam Rainbow Six Siege is asking for an activation code even though it's free-to-play. The game shows as owned on both Steam and Ubisoft Connect. Steam ID: 76561199701512544. This is a license sync issue on your end, please escalate to your technical team

    @Steam are you using AI in your customer service now? Literally the worst experience I've ever had being locked out of my account! Definitely considering migrating off of this platform. About to tell everyone I know.

    @MCDEEZFN @Half_Life_III @Steam No third-party controller will work on Xbox without a paid license, and even then, it will only work via cable. Xinput is the issue for Windows PCs, but it can be used with an Xinput emulator, just like any other third-party controller such as the DualSense.

    Yoo @Steam is goat They fix my issue in a minute XD Thank you Steam

  • Mr_Y21350
    Mark (@Mr_Y21350) reported

    @valvesoftware @Steam Fix the trackpads to function like the gyro system of the joysticks and you can remove the joysticks all together. Also needs more buttons to properly adapt to pc games. Might be neat if you also had a mini keyboard attachment like the old Xbox 360 controllers.

    @Sheltyb803 @PlayStation @Steam You don't own any game bought digitally in Sony or Steam. You only own the license to play it thrugh Sony/Steam. They can close the service when they want. It is all in the TOS.

    @Sheltyb803 @PlayStation @Steam I guess that's why i choose to play on xbox series x, i set mine as my home xbox and even if there is an internet outage i can still play my games offline

    @UbisoftSupport @Steam That **** never happens. If there's an issue with your game not launching it's probably the game not being compatible with your setup as in the OS/Hardware/Drivers or you moded **** of the game files. Your stupid launcher on even a super computer lags like ****.

    @0bscuratea @valvesoftware @Steam The problem is that for import purposes, this means a higher price than the DualSense, and it's not that competitive, even though it's pretty cool.
