  • ignSequos Sequos (@ignSequos) reported

    @Steam just goes from 40 mbp/s to 6? Weird problem only have this with steam, normally I have around 60+ mbp/s while downloading games on origin etc.

  • YodasRaytracing Yodas Raytraced Retro Studios (@YodasRaytracing) reported

    @bibou1008 @Steam Valve are you getting this? Fix your Gabendamn depth buffer in Half Life 2 underwater. Push the mass Vulkan Native festivities and crossbreed them with Bills child. Knock our ******* socks off.

  • Obiwanjerrnobi Obiwanjerrnobi (@Obiwanjerrnobi) reported

    @Steam so you are NOT refunding people who bought @Battlefield ? Only 2 hrs of gameplay is allowed? Takes 2 hrs just go get queued and into a decent hack free, glitch free lobby…

  • moemenshahawy Moemen Shahawy 🇪🇬🇮🇩 (@moemenshahawy) reported

    @SteamDB @Steam Well, didn't expect to find Egyptian Pounds there since valve doesn't give a flying F about it, yet Epic added it, so steam can suck on it for all i care. Epic is growing larger anyway add the launcher doesn't lag like steam

  • BenjyOhh Cal (@BenjyOhh) reported

    @Steam I can’t log into steam, I reset my password many times and still can’t login please help

  • MasterKeynobi Key Acosta (@MasterKeynobi) reported

    @fukuro___mine @Steam This sucks. The game is literally broken now. I can't load into anything anymore.

  • ClevverClovve clovve (@ClevverClovve) reported

    @Steam is the worst digital service ever! every ******' time my download rate is so slow while my internet is aright. ffs.

  • TheSh466y Thesh466y (@TheSh466y) reported

    @PlayGodfall Just stay away from @Steam, until you fixes all the issues.

  • thiagogroff thiago (@thiagogroff) reported

    @trees97 @Steam Having the same problem here. It's verifiying and when it gets to 4%, it says it's going to take 1 day to finish. WTF is this

  • PhantomOverload Ricardo Arano (@PhantomOverload) reported

    @gallatron76 @Steam Alright, if it's like Origin even if the person changes your info they should be able to use your original login info to get your account back. When my Origin got hacked they used my original login info to prove it was my account.

  • _strxngersahara Sara,, 🇨🇴 (@_strxngersahara) reported

    @Steam @EA_Espana You 2 have the worst customer service support in the entire world. I have a f#cking problem with Sims 4, that your platform is not working, and the best thing you have in mind is to shoot my case to the other company. I just wanted to play my fav game. That's it

  • KaneQuips kandy kane 🇨🇿 (@KaneQuips) reported

    @BluePandaOG1 @Steam Shocking: not all games need to be live service update-bloated garbage and games can actually be finished

  • WhiteLion_Games HeyWhiteBoy (@WhiteLion_Games) reported

    man, it would be nice if @Steam would just, ignore the whole 2 week refund policy when it comes to super broken games like battlefield. i legitimately have not been able to play over an hour of actual gameplay without serious issues.

  • Ned_Griffin Ned Griffin (@Ned_Griffin) reported

    I hope I never again buy a game like @farcry5 with @Ubisoft linked to @steam. Having to constantly log into Ubisoft every time I want to play and you can't even copy and past user ID and password to login. Thanks for making it awkward.

  • Gonzilla_Gaming Gonzilla (@Gonzilla_Gaming) reported

    @Steam @Steam_Support uhhhh… anyway that I can talk to an actual human being from steam/valve? Keep getting automated email reply’s and voicemail redirects… poor customer service #Steam #steamsupport

  • Saad_Yaqoob7 Havoc Gamer (@Saad_Yaqoob7) reported

    I am very disappointed by steam as i was downloading apex legends, when it reaches 42/44 gb it started showing that there was not enough space but there was.😠😠😠😠 Now i have to start the download again. Steam Pls Fix !!! @Steam

  • korewatori Tori (@korewatori) reported

    Does anyone know how to fix the @Steam issue where download speed fluctuates immensely? Like, it's flipping between a regular speed and then boop 0KB/s. I don't know how to fix it but it's annoying. @Steam_Support #Steam

  • mario_tristao Mário Tristão (@mario_tristao) reported

    @Steam I've problem with the save loop

  • pharmdeez9 Hußam (@pharmdeez9) reported

    So I guess @Steam is picking and choosing who to issue refunds to. And it’s very frustrating.

  • HackyScientress Jenny 🏳️‍⚧️ | @hackyscientress@chaos.social #5369 (@HackyScientress) reported

    Still angry that because @steam's ****** DDoS protection that didn't take into account server errors on their side, caused me to not be able to order a Steam Deck until hours into the pre-sale and hence pushing my delivery slot to Q2 or after.

  • DrizzintahL DrizzintahL (@DrizzintahL) reported

    @MattinMiddletwn @Steam I wonder if games with their own launcher have issues since it's a secondary thing that tracks the directory. Not sure.

  • ottersarecoolaf Rougesome #SaveRedDeadOnline (@ottersarecoolaf) reported

    @Steam fix tf2 sadly

  • BigRTipper The Incredible BurnVictim TrashMan (@BigRTipper) reported

    @Steam your 2 hour gameplay refund policy is a goddamn joke and you don't allow for people to contact chat support to make their case or get answers to questions. It's absolutely abysmal customer service. Will be taking my game purchases elsewhere since you don't care.

  • ExodiaTheFx1 ExodiaTheFx1 (@ExodiaTheFx1) reported

    @Xbox @XboxSupport yall should follow in @Steam footsteps and give full refunds for Battlefield 2042 haven't touch the game since release date it's so broken

  • Adoul945 GodGiven (@Adoul945) reported

    @JBM_89 @ultra_io At least I know after 15+ years, they wont have stupid problem like @Steam

  • TooNsGG Bryan 🇳🇴 (@TooNsGG) reported

    @Steam I can’t login to my account because your system is not sending me the code to login. Nice support 💩

  • its_Plexsure Plexsure. (@its_Plexsure) reported

    @Steam W. Now fix GTA IV and make it playable

  • TzTokDad Jay (@TzTokDad) reported

    @yoits_Kiefx @Steam No idea, I downloaded a different game to test and it went though nice and smooth, I’ve seen a few others on steam with this problem!

  • Faerie_Arrruda Arruda (@Faerie_Arrruda) reported

    @Steam @monsterhunter Any news about the "Failed to save "error? Please help us

  • yoits_Kiefx Kief {x} (@yoits_Kiefx) reported

    @TzTokDad @Steam sounds like HDD/SDD problems with corruption occuring from bad read/writes?
