    @Sheltyb803 @PlayStation @Steam Steam has the same issue

    @DalaranCrater @Steam It was a nightmare, but it got solved. If I used desktop browser it would ask for my steam guard to login, totally fine, then I would scan and it would be like: Now use the app to Confirm…. No notifications, nothing in confirmation. So then I made my way after 20 attempts to a mobile version which allowed me to get to the next screen which required my mobile app, which when it went to the page would just load the page in the app the ask me while in the app to swap screens to verify the number, resulting in a loop restarting the process.

    @Steam I'm not sure what the issue is, but in South Africa @Steam browser barely loads. I have done all the trouble shooting, nothing fixes it. Looking to buy a game? Can't. Nothing loads. This problem has been persistent for over a year. Please fix!

    @valvesoftware @Steam Brazilian players want to buy Valve hardware officially, at a fair price, with proper support. We are not asking for magic. Just a legitimate way to buy the product without gambling with bureaucracy and warranty issues.

    @CharlieFlufboi @valvesoftware @Steam Yeah, looks like even people trying to buy it on Steam are running into errors and can’t purchase it lol

    @GamerLXXXVI @valvesoftware @Steam Dumbass mf can’t open a link to see they already say ******* One and One only. It’s idiots like you that’re why there’s so many problems in the world today.

    @Sheltyb803 @PlayStation @Steam Apparently it’s not what we thought. PS4 hackers were stealing games. This was a response to that. Buy a game for the duration of the return period it’s a temporary license. After that login and get a new one that’s traditional.

    @UbisoftSupport @Steam The only problem is your trash launcher.

    @litteralyme0 @Steam support is excellent. I had a problem once and they went above and beyond to fix it for me. Legends.

    @Pirat_Nation Don't care. Microslop had years➕ to fix @Windows & are only doing it now bc losing ppl to Linux & @Steam. These companies will never learn – I hope gamers finally do. Money is voting power & I haven't spent any since "Xbox One (won)".

  • TheVisitorSNAFU
    Smitty Werbenjagermanjensen (@TheVisitorSNAFU) reported

    @GooningOnRumble @Steam Did stream also crash? Some delisted products if gifted from an inventory won’t work and can crash the system. Also is the game sold in the West or is it an Asian game like Dead Or Alive volleyball?

    @valvesoftware @Steam Ok but fix the god damn audio glitch from CS2... I already lost 1 match because of it... My ELO broooo!!!!!!

    @UbisoftSupport @Steam This is a problem Ubisoft created. Not Steams fault.

  • GengoraltP

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

    @0bscuratea @valvesoftware @Steam Meanwhile ps5 is $60 with stick drift that can happen out of nowhere with no good fix

  • MikeTriceratops
    Michael (@MikeTriceratops) reported

    @smith_rust @valvesoftware @Steam Anybody that actually pays them those prices and rewards them for their scummy selfish behavior is only perpetuating the issue and encouraging them to continue scalping. Out of principle, I will wait however long I need to in order to purchase directly from Valve.

  • Rusty_PWN
    яυѕтуρωη (@Rusty_PWN) reported

    @UbisoftSupport @Steam It's your game, not their, and it's your launcher causing the problem. Nobody likes you and the reason is this kind of bullshit on top of your dogshit code

  • heavilof
    Vladyslav Rezohlazov (@heavilof) reported

    @valvesoftware @Steam fix vac, it's false banning people 24/7 but not banning people with very famous pellix

  • virhillyo
    virhillyo (@virhillyo) reported

    @Steam @Steam_Support @OnDeck hey valve, I was wondering if someone can help me with an issue I have with my Steam Deck? My deck won’t go into sleep mode if I press the power button and I have to do it through the steam button which is a bit tedious. Would appreciate any help :)

  • PowPowPony
    GoodStuffPuff (@PowPowPony) reported

    @UbisoftSupport @Steam Just make it so your games can be played directly through steam and these problems would cease to exist for people, your launcher IS the problem

    @UnfoldedAxe @UbisoftSupport @Steam nope has never worked to fix any UBI game ever, problem always with their launcher

  • NEHWind
    N.E.H.-Windzen (@NEHWind) reported

    @valvesoftware @Steam Valve, are you shitting me right now? Yes, I've attempted a lot of the same purchase, you just refuse to process any of them. Now I'm locked out for who knows how long, on top of your server problems? Drop the ball harder, I'd love to see what that looks like.

  • tappinfrogo

    @yorksoriginal @Steam Doesn't it fix itself once you close the game?

  • videogomez
    ViDEOGOMEZ (@videogomez) reported

    @Null1130250 @valvesoftware @Steam They've had YEARS to fix their international supply problems, I had to buy my Steam Deck from a third party just because I live a few kilometers below Texas.

    @IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck "That’s not demand, that’s a broken purchase system." Shut up Grok

    Stephen McHugh (@longshotmagoo) reported

    @IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck I knew the controller would sell out fairly quick like but 30 mins is insane haha. Valves biggest problem is filling demand, that's a great problem lol

    Herman G. Krueger (@HermanKrue10077) reported

    @UbisoftSupport @Steam Bro, is this a late April fool? You have perhaps one of the shittiest launchers ever made in pc history. Every ******* time I open Uplay I have to resyinc some **** or login again. Just do yourself a favour, close that Cloaca Maxima and bring your games on Steam already.
