Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Foot Lettuce (@FootLettusplay) reported@Steam put a disc drive in the next steam machine??? I guarantee the games that make the money would have no issues releasing physical.
-
RickTrajan (@RickTrajan) reported@gaersstapa @Zoroarts @Steam The problem with this mindset is it encourages prolonging a game rather than doing what it's meant to do (telling a story, good multiplayer setup, or whatever a game you want it to be). It's like word count on essays, vehicles being predominantly suvs and trucks in US, etc.
-
TheUKDude (@PaulKirby36) reported@Steam Whats up with your platform? Its down for us all and the issue is not due to update Tuesdays. So any update when it will be back up?
-
Dan Abrenica (@Dan_Abrenica) reported@MattyDanner @Steam Hello @MattyDanner, I have a question, if Jose and Panchito have a angry issue and sent there near the water. Will there be 2 Big Reflections of Jose and Panchito's counterparts or just the same reflection as the same order to Devil Donald as he splits himself into a few devils.

John (@TheCassiniGames) reported@Steam Fix your servers bro 😭
-
Macanthony Okhidievbie-Alfred (@Macanthony13764) reported@Steam Steam has gotten it back for me very goated Customer service
-
JohnnyHelldiver (@hiles_johnathan) reportedOi @Steam can’t login or view friends list or games list on the app or the desktop app
-
InquisitorIrene (@OperaOfTheLC) reported@Zoroarts @Steam That’s such a trashy move, why is 2 hours the standard still? There needs to be better ways to issue refunds rather than just a standard 2 hours.
-
Dilshad Subramanian (@imdilshad03) reported@Steam my steam ID had suddenly lost all my friends list. It shows 0. Is there any way to fix it ? ID: dilshad003
-
Sunkanmi Fafowora (@the_jonin_) reportedThat's why @Steam still remains the best company out there, and it's not even close. Their customer service is literally unbeatable at this point. Still saw the recent news of the refund based on the fact that the gamer was cheated in a way after many hours of playthrough.
-
🏴Obscure outpost podcast🐦 (@Obscure_Outpost) reported@ItzPuddleJumper @Steam Steam deck uses steam os which uses arch Linux as a base,Arch is a cutting edge rolling operating system so updates can break it usually they put the fix for it on archs website.
-
pikachufrankie (@pikachufrankie) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Portal 1 is roughly a little over an hour long, yet has never had this issue. Limbo is only a few hours long, and also never had this issue. You can make short games that people won’t want to refund. If people are mass refunding your game, it’s because it isn’t worth the price.
-
goz (@gozfrt) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Anticonsumer ****** *** dev who lies about the numbers. Steams refund policy is the best and your slop of a game wont "fix" something that isnt broken. Next time make a effort to make the game longer than 1h 30mins
-
Pasai_awesome (@Pasai_awesome) reported@Steam Hey mu account has been stolen whole I was at work. They changed the username and the password,and email. I have all the emails and notifications steam has ever sent me. The automatic service keeps giving me the run around. Is there a better way to get in touch please?
-
Mikodaud (@Mikodaud) reported@JagerBomba890 @ChibiReviews @Steam We migrate to the platforms that dont have this problem,you can stay and get goyslopped freely,i dont care.
-
Bob Cross (@Odenwoodnlaser) reported@Steam why is your site infected with a phiishing file? Why is your login system and support system not working? Why has this been going on for over a week.
-
how to talk to your dog about doomscrolling (@theangrylisas) reported@GabeNewell @valvesoftware @Steam DoD:S was probably my favorite game ever. The leaked source has a bug in it. The overhead achievement loop breaks on the first unlocked badge, meaning anyone who gets them all is locked to the rifleman badge. Give me repo access and I’ll fix it.
-
kate! ΘΔ (@SeedVEVO) reportedthis is still broken, @valvesoftware @steam please fix <3
-
CatMan (@Epik_S07) reported@Steam on browser its work fine problem in client
-
General K (@GKTABM) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Make your game longer than 2 hours worth of content, that is the industry standard. Add more levels. Add more modes. Add more replay-ability. Add more fun modifiers. This is literally a your game is lacking problem.
-
Cørey (@coreyVMG) reportedFix your **** @Steam
-
Xenos (Ambassador Of Indie Games) (@WrenchOfChaos) reported@PotatoCrispDip @Steam The problem is that you can return any game through steam within 2 weeks and played under 2 hours, and many devs who have made critically acclaimed but very short games have made this same complaint about people beating & returning the game. It's a a problem steam needs to fix
-
熨斗蘭(のしらん) (@Noshiran_game) reported@Steam_Support @Steam fix plz
-
StockStackr (@VeganCatBounce) reported@Steam I understand security but I will not digit code press your captchas. I guess I can't play War of Rights cause you are more intersted in farming my data than providing me a service?
-
Rickey Pendarvis (@rickeyp2121) reported@EatPantGames It unfortunate that @PlayStation idiocy is causing problems like this for small indie teams and games. Obviously not everyone can do physical release. @Steam has proven they are trustworthy with digital for decades. Hope people support you over there. I will 👍
-
Xenos (Ambassador Of Indie Games) (@WrenchOfChaos) reported@PotatoCrispDip @Steam I agree that's on them for submitting a short game and acting surprised when they happened, you really just shouldn't submit a short game to Steam in it's current state if you don't want returns, but that doesn't mean it's still a problem that Steam should (and can) fix.
-
Michael Eskenasy (@ItsChefreyOS) reportedHey @Steam people…I’ve been saying this for weeks, your coordination is broken…
-
Barry ******* Berkman (@tylenoldoe) reported@Steam resolved my issue in like 3 hours on a Sunday I love you
-
johnny utah (@vinnychase1764) reported@Steam your support sucks. You won’t refund a game that has under 4 hours of play time. You see all the reviews. It’s broken.
-
Maxie 🎮 Bloodstained | Visions of Mana | ONINAKI (@maxieaftermdnyt) reported@ZirraTGK That’s me in a nutshell. If not physically, I’ll be getting those games on @Steam. At least Steam has good customer service even though they also sell digital licenses (@GOGcom doesn’t really sell their games in my country sadly)
