Skylar167 (@Skylar167Twitch) reported@DaynglsGuides @valvesoftware @Steam I got this error and couldn't get it, and now its out of stock
-
Cosmodiver (@Cosmodiver) reported@CharlieFlufboi @valvesoftware @Steam Yeah, looks like even people trying to buy it on Steam are running into errors and can’t purchase it lol
-
Conker T. Squirrel (@Conker64_) reportedAll the piracy issue could've been solved if only you publish games on the @Steam platform. It's really not that hard, you'll gain a lot of loyal supporters if you switch to publishing more games on Steam. @valvesoftware solved this piracy issue before when no corporation did it.
-
Vedant Kalore (@VedantKalore) reported@choehau_ara @Steam @Steam_Support So then they should fix it.... As their consoles run Linux afterall
-
Fallout Flashy (@DrewFlashy1) reportedI was skeptical about @Steam's controller costing an outrageous $100, $30 more than a Nintendo Pro controller. However, I now know you can open it to maybe fix it yourself and if you drop it, it Wilhelm screams. Such humanity is worth it. Our household will have 2.
-
Colton Pospichal (@PospichalColton) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Fix your storefront so people can actually make transactions or stock enough so people can purchase them.
-
Frank🇺🇸 (@C50_FC) reported@fr33thytweaks @Steam If the problem is the hardware, a firmware update isn’t gonna change anything lol
-
Yorks (@yorksoriginal) reported@SleepingFumo @Steam Glad someone understands the pain. It's gotten way worse lately too; always had issues but would maybe get 2x the actual playtime logged, annoying, but not the end of the world, but now I'm two hours into Higurashi and somehow already have over 200 hours logged!!!
-
J. Ilmari (@hide_X666) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Would've been nice if your servers would've let me purchase it. Got errors 30 mins straight and then it was sold out
-
$!|b!r0b! (@silbirobi) reported@RealMarcFoxx Okay👍 But I have to criticize @Steam @Steam_Support I have to perform a login to play offline. That's just wrong and have to change.
-
RomanInDaRain is Writing... 🇲🇽🇬🇾🇵🇷 (@RomanKingKriz) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam At least steam games drops work, yall twitch drops page been broken for 6 months not a single tweak to it.
-
It's Totally Mikoto Time! (@MikotoWolfskin) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Selling out in 36 minutes is absolutely bathetic! Where is the Que? Preorders? Why did you not stop scalping! 2 per customer didn't help! in the start 1 per customer and stop reviewer from getting one in the start. Endless transaction error. Highly disappointed!
-
Fikusoowy (@Fikusoowy) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam Just fix your ******* code at least
-
Vlad Oreshkov (@minkrov) reported@greg_opera @Anaya_sharma876 @Steam Yeah, but some very popular multiplayer games I've heard are not compatible with Linux, so I was suggesting that AI could solve that problem yk?
-
R Daneel Olivaw (@thelinemain) reported@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.
-
Mr. Killeverything (@MrKillevrything) reported@GooningOnRumble @Steam Wtf? I don't believe that I have ever had this issue.
-
Vista Larga Games | ᯅ (@VistaLargaGames) reported@GiveMeBanHammer @Steam needs to fix this
-
Spacefish (@Spacefish) reported@valvesoftware @Steam "There seems to have been an error initializing or updating your transaction. Please wait a minute and try again or contact support for assistance." :(
-
Cap'n Slipp (@CapnSlipp) reportedDear @Steam, the useful Verification Code From E-mail feature in iOS/iPadOS doesn't work with e-mails from Steam. I believe this is because iOS only looks at the notification, not the whole e-mail. Please move the code further up (text-wise) in your e-mails to fix this. #UXBug
-
97skynet (@97skynet) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Added to cart at launch, but then nothing but error messages until a minute after launch when it showed out of stock. But at least the scalpers were able to get them. They are gong for $300 on eBay. Can’t say I’m surprised, just disappointed.
-
Márcio Freitas (@marciovmf) reportedYep, after owning all Playstations since PSOne, and being a PS+ subscriber since the service started, I feel it is time for me to abandon console gaming moving to @Steam definitely.
-
Julianthethief (@RedeYesHood) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam @UbisoftSupport the source of the problem is ur own goddamn launcher and not steam so don't spread misinformation .
-
moT (@moTtheWhite) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam Lol, steams not the problem. Your ****** launcher is
-
Ignyte (@DJignyte) reported@Steam @discord @Windows The CLOSEST thing I got to it working the way I want, is by launching steam or discord via powershell. Which half works (does for Discord). But I launch steam by right-clicking on the icon and selecting 'Friends' so the friends list appears. Which the powershell thing doesnt fix.
-
Evan Desjardins (@evandesjardins) reported@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.
-
Eldritch Boggart (@EldritchBoggart) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Fix your payment system. Broken system so everyone missed out on the pathetically low quantity of controllers you provided for purchase.
