    @MoonglowBay @Steam @MoonglowBay xbox fix? Or least give us a mini patch just so we can free ourselves and keep playing! PLEASE! I totally understand it's difficult but just do a mini patch so we can least keep playing?

  • MishiY10 Mishi Y (@MishiY10) reported

    All the aforementioned rules were broken by @JadePrincessMew and if police were actually called by @JadePrincessMew they would correct their false claims and tell them this, as I'm sure @Steam has already.

  • mike00134254433 mike 001 (@mike00134254433) reported

    @XboxSupport @xboxuk how about offering a refund on battlefield 2042. Less than 2 hours played and cant get a match and broken game. Come on follow @Steam

  • Ceajayytw Ceajayy (@Ceajayytw) reported

    HELP a guy from steam said that I had to give them my discord login or else he'll delete my steam account (he did it), so they logged in, changed my email and password, and started sending my friends innapropriate stuff, please fix this @discord and bring my steam acc back @Steam

  • Jonnytron Jonny (@Jonnytron) reported

    It's dumb that games like #AssassinsCreedVallhalla can't be played without constant updates. I notice this problem from games in my @Steam collection less because starting steam queues up updates for everything. It still seems like the "always online" addiction is bad for users.

  • bersealia Bersealia Dreamheart (@bersealia) reported

    @TalesTori @Steam Well, ****. I have no idea what to do. I have a Steam but don’t socialize on it, so I’ve never had to deal with this problem. I’m sorry, but I don’t know how to help you. 😰

  • SpawnSlayers brandon (@SpawnSlayers) reported

    @playrust @Steam yesterday my steam account got hacked. I havent played rust for months. my account tells me I played it yesterday. NOW im banned on rust for using cheats. I'VE NEVER PLAYED RUST. I played it around 3 or 4 times. someone fix these issues

  • Michelle303045 Michelle Williams (@Michelle303045) reported

    @Will83965369 @Steam Text him or call him +1 (657)233-6757 for any account issues you're having, He's legit and trusted

  • GlitchedGamerTR Professional Chocolate Milk Addict (@GlitchedGamerTR) reported

    @Steam great sale...now fix servers and let me actually buy something...I'm not mad, I'm annoyed

  • MishiY10 Mishi Y (@MishiY10) reported

    @JadePrincessMew Check my posts for the full info and proof this person has NOT called the police because they are actually the one harassing and slandering people with libellous and out of context "name & shame" attempts which breaks @Steam Terms of Service and is illegal.

  • Ky_Cosplays Trash_Panda (@Ky_Cosplays) reported

    @TalesTori @Steam Which is so stupid, as for someone who went for IT and didn’t finish but knows it it’s not that hard to go into the code and do a look over. It’s the time part that they don’t want to do, and that things that they would look for could create errors if not don right. But it’s dumb

  • mighty_m_k Mighty_MK (@mighty_m_k) reported

    @Steam I was wondering if it's possible to add brightness control for Guide Button for @Xbox controller (mainly #XboxSeriesX controller). You added compatibility with Share Button (which is still not working in official Xbox Accessories app on Windows 10) so maybe it's possible.

  • BadgerWThumbs Possible Bad Influencer (@BadgerWThumbs) reported

    Anyone else have issues with @Steam voice chat requests immediately cancelling out right after you click to connect? #Steam

  • Mikaela40691870 Mikamatic (@Mikaela40691870) reported

    @Steam Hi, I'm trying to send a gift card to a friend in a different region and I am unable to do so, is this a temporary error or something by design?

    anyone know how to fix #DeathStranding's PC-version Xbox controller issues without having to use @Steam's HORRIBLY ****** Big Picture Mode?

  • kaso_frank Frank Kaso (@kaso_frank) reported

    @Steam Hi guys, something's gone wrong with your support site, I'm trying to open an account support query, and I always receive this error message: We had trouble verifying your captcha, please try to complete the captcha again.

  • esola_aol maryann esola (@esola_aol) reported

    @Steam is the server down?

  • FischlsBurden Fisch (@FischlsBurden) reported

    @whim_twitch @GameSpot @Steam keep trying it, say in your refund request that you have longer than 2 hours but only like 30 minutes of playtime because most of the time spent was looking at error and loading screens and when you didn't get into a game you were met with netcode issues and multiple bugs

  • PPirate27 Fae_Wolf_ (@PPirate27) reported

  • shinmai Cute Notman MGS boss "coder 🇸 🇭 🇮 🇳 🇲 🇦 🇮" (@shinmai) reported

    Platforms who can't send SMSs reliably ******* stop using SMS as part of your 2FA systems. I'm looking at you @Steam. I'm not "having trouble receiving text messages from Steam", you're having trouble sending SMS messages to me, literally every other sender can reach me fine.

  • Hamster3468 Hamster (@Hamster3468) reported

    @Steam Your support is so biased they can't issue refunds for 2042 thats sad 90% want a refund so where the refund when this game is worse then Cyberpunk so why not have an exception for that you fools

  • cschoefter Cory Schoefter (@cschoefter) reported

    @madrugaworks Don't buy Dawn of Man! It is highly broken and the development team has issued zero updates and apparently abandoned the project. I've submitted a refund request from @Steam and if you bought this game you should also request a refund because this game is definitely not worth it.
