@Protostar @Steam I waited 5 minutes gets rid of the "too many attempts" error, then tried to hook up PayPal. I got an error about failing to connect with PayPal 4 or 5 times but on the last attempt it went though.

@Steam I’m getting all sorts of errors trying to reserve mine … here’s the newest one “Reservation Servers are busy, please try again”. Any advice on how to reserve one of these??

@Steam Jesus that was a hot mess of an experience. Got many error messages but finally got to pay. Then it said my bank had blocked the transaction (even though it hadn't) and when I tried to buy it once again, it said I already owned it and the payment had gone through. Phew!

Well looks like the over 1h delay cause by the errors means that I won't get mine in Dezember. It now says in my account Q1 2022. Time will tell how many months later I will get mine because of the 1h and 20min delay cause by @steam's ****** DOS protection.

@Steam My only question is why did u have such an incredibly screwed up process 4 taking preorders? An error filled system that eventually flags my attempts 2 order as "too many attempts to purchase, why don't you wait a while". When I eventually get back 2 my cart, I'll b removing it

@aadamadeola @Steam i removed it from my cart, since i'm gonna be getting a link to purchase it again, it might give me an error cause i already had one in my cart. It's still showing up in my steam account and bank account so i should be good. Will update here when i get the email. Thanks!

@justinkatzmedia @Steam I went to lunch, came back, tried again, took me through the entire PayPal process to pay, finished, got back to Steam, errored out immediately, now stuck in the error loop again, can't complete transaction, glad to know someone got one

(@aadamadeola) reported
@NikoSkipz @Steam Wait a bit and they will send you an email saying there was an error in the transaction and they will tell you to try again. They will attach a link to that email to try again and you should do that immediately and it should go through. Mine was pending and It just went through

@Steam Been trying for hours now! I've got in my basket but I've had 3 PayPal payments & 2 credit card ones crash after saying working. Now for the last hour I get the too many attempts! Yes! Because your site is crashing! Just waited 25 mins but still the say.

@javaKrypt @Steam Check the reservation page. I couldn't get mine until about 45min after the reservations went live. Shows Q2 2022 (512), my buddy got no errors and it's saying Q1 2022.

@Steam "It looks like you've been attempting a lot of purchases in the last few hours. Please wait a while before trying again." It's been over 2hrs of nothing but errors, getting stuck and that message. Meanwhile I'm seeing people ordering theirs left and right. Imma lie down now.

@Steam If you get this error wait 5 minutes before trying again. If PayPal doesn't shake hands with Steam. The start the whole process over again. Took me 4 or 5 tries like this.

@downrightdpad @Steam Hahaha. I can by an over 200GB SD card for <$50. Hardly even a problem because I had to do the same exact thing for the Switch. If the joy cons on this don't go to **** within 30 hours of playtime, money well spent.

@Steam I managed to get one after a long list of errors, was there dead on 6pm GMT to reserve, loaded, crashed then wouldn’t load, kept trying finally got there but delivery expected Q1 2022 slightly disappointing as I was hoping for christmas delivery, good luck to everyone else.

@Steam If you get this "too many attempts" error wait 5 minutes before trying again. If you get past this error but PayPal doesn't shake hands with Steam then start the whole process over again. Took me 4 or 5 tries doing this before my payment was processed.

@Steam @valvesoftware Why this is important, and problematic.. while that error continues to persist, and other's may be able to get their orders locked in. It pushes people like myself further down the list and a longer wait for the device. To the point, you might as well wait for a full launch
