    @THQNordic @Steam I wonder if you can help me; I purchased ‘Red Faction Guerrilla’ many years ago and it (at the time) was enabled to access ‘Games for Windows Live’ service. I can access that version by changing it to ‘beta’ version but cannot see/find my needed CD key

  • Darksyne2 Darksyne (@Darksyne2) reported

    @patobriennyusa @Steam @Activision Yeah every god damn Tuesday at some time between 6-8pm Eastern they shut down all online service for “maintenance updates” at prime time hours… This **** ***** over streamers like me because they’re forced to wait on Valves time to do their useless updates. WOW does them at 3am

  • Aureskaris Awkward Aures (@Aureskaris) reported

    @Steam Fix your servers or something. For some reason, I cannot login to my main account, which is needed for my Steam Guard code for my alt account. Password recovery cannot be done also because your CAPTCHA system REFUSES to acknowledge the correct choices as valid one.

  • MathewHooper8 Mathew Wheeler (@MathewHooper8) reported

  • temporarypen Simon Best (@temporarypen) reported

    Funny how the @XboxCanada attitude is to effortlessly provide a refund if there's an issue identified through live chat. They've even got an automated system like @Steam. What an amazing concept.

  • kyleque k҉y҉l҉e҉ (@kyleque) reported

    fun fact: If you turn on a VPN while playing @deathloop (cc: @BethesdaSupport and @Steam ) Steam will disconnect prompting to sign back in and the game will force close. note: I was on single play mode as well.
