Steam Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • theostalproject The Ostal Project (@theostalproject) reported

    @Maroye @Steam Indeed, blockchain gaming will be massive in the future. Imagine having actual ownership of your CSGO skins. Clearly blockchain tech is a threat to steams bottom line, that or too many legal issues ATM

  • Ghost___x0 👻 Ghostx0 (@Ghost___x0) reported

    @sillytuna @SpacePirate_io @Steam Yeah I thought this would all be a legal case with gambling laws and currency when it comes to gaming. That's why you would think Data queries wouldn't be an issue. But there is always the chance to sell so burn keys? Im with steam on this one though due to security concerns

  • OreginalVideos OreginalVideos (@OreginalVideos) reported

    Its taking @Steam 3 days(and still ongoing) to try and help me resolve an issue where they need to assign a game to my account. I purchased the base version of the game. Realized it was the wrong one, and went and purchased the ultimate edition. They refunded the base version...

  • creativeether Nick Leslie - ⓟolk@dot ₿@🅡on (@creativeether) reported

    @SpacePirate_io @Steam Build a decentralized launchpad and boom no more problems.

  • Ghost___x0 👻 Ghostx0 (@Ghost___x0) reported

    @sillytuna @SpacePirate_io @Steam that's what I mean with data queries you are still using the NFT as the data is stored *frozen* so it can be accessed but can't be changed. The main issue here is posession. If you don't allow users to truley own anything then it should be ok no?

  • ebcadag Emmanuel Cadag (@ebcadag) reported

    @SkyMavisHQ @AxieInfinity @Steam validation failed. pls.fix

  • midniteshadow4 midniteshadow (@midniteshadow4) reported

    @Steam fix you download its so bad

  • SenorWoberto Spooky Season Rob is looking 4 work! (@SenorWoberto) reported

    @Cobreean @SpacePirate_io @Steam sounds like a you problem

  • mcoorlim Strike-toberfest (@mcoorlim) reported

    @fermuss @SpacePirate_io @Steam I don't know where you got "security" as the issue here - oh, it's because all you have is a hammer, so everything looks like a nail.

  • KidMomo12021 iamJoey (@KidMomo12021) reported

    @SkyMavisHQ @Steam Not a problem. More reason to put blockchain games on Gala, Mavis, etc..

  • Druvolkz Jhonatam (@Druvolkz) reported

    @SkyMavisHQ @AxieInfinity @Steam I'm with the error "Team validation failed", what can i do?

  • CrucibleChris HellolmChris (@CrucibleChris) reported

    @barmatz @Steam Yeah I can believe all of those. But they don't seem to have an issue with loot boxes... 🤔

  • TraderCloseSys Kumi14 (@TraderCloseSys) reported

    @SkyMavisHQ @Psycheout86 @Steam Game had problem about team create

  • ross_stalker Ross Stalker 🏳️‍🌈🔶💉💉 (@ross_stalker) reported

    @Cobreean @SpacePirate_io @Steam "I can't even play anything standard now that I have blockchained" sounds like a you problem, not an us problem.

  • Druvolkz Jhonatam (@Druvolkz) reported

    @SkyMavisHQ @Steam I'm with the error "Team validation failed", what can i do?

  • mcoorlim Strike-toberfest (@mcoorlim) reported

    @fermuss @SpacePirate_io @Steam rejecting scams like NFT solves a lot of problems

  • sollog Sollog (@sollog) reported

    @fvckrender @Steam What do they know about regulation coming? Scared money could crash the whole fake nft game

  • JooCarl24328167 ... (@JooCarl24328167) reported

    @SkyMavisHQ @Steam Are you aware of validation error problem?

  • CryptoInsight_R CryptoInsight.tech (@CryptoInsight_R) reported

    @b05crypto @valvesoftware @Steam Given the different regulatory issues Steam has to deal with across the world, and the potential legal hassles, I can understand their choice. It isn’t like they are saying “never shall I ever”

  • Liaoesque Vincent Liao (@Liaoesque) reported

    @SkyMavisHQ @cdixon @Steam I used to own dope TF2 hats, but I couldn't move it outside the Steam ecosystem. Is this the sort of problem NFT solves?

  • karen__jenn65 Karen Jenn (@karen__jenn65) reported

    @Aftermode900 @Steam I got similar issue with my account , @Charon_Solution could get it back! it is legitimate and does not defraud

  • orven_toaster ORVEN Toaster (@orven_toaster) reported

    @kenoshtan @Steam Governments are concerned with Lootboxes. It's understandable that Steam would want to disconnect themselves from NFTs for now to not catch a second wind of investigations.

  • HunterOrWatever Hunter (@HunterOrWatever) reported

    @SkyMavisHQ @AxieInfinity @Steam If you have time to post this, why not use it instead to fix the pvp imbalance in Termi Infinity ?

  • Foeneex1 Foeneex (@Foeneex1) reported

    @DiegoZube @Steam @jakebrowatzke It's a fact but... NFTs games universe is so early. There's so much place for developments and upgrades. It's only the beginning. Clearly, the NFT games are not so hot right now because It's still new and time will fix the things that make people tired of it. Be patient.

  • eden_holdings Eden Holdings (@eden_holdings) reported

    So I heard a rumor that @Steam is going to issue its own token. Is banning crypto now a ploy to make a new Steam type of crypto platform?

  • Krys77196974 Krys (@Krys77196974) reported

    @SkyMavisHQ @Steam If the issue is the Bots, their solution still won't fix the problem. Since these bots will still reset at 1200 MMR and just play in the adventure haays. They should focus on security, identifying and banning those bots. Not take the SLP of those poor players with below 800 MMR.

  • IdeasInAJiffy Ideas In A Jiffy (@IdeasInAJiffy) reported

    @virtuallyzain @Steam saw the news and still can't wrap my head around the decision. thinking it might be to avoid regulatory issues until they figure out certain things, bullish for @SkyMavisHQ though and their platform.

  • JackSmi85280425 Echo (@JackSmi85280425) reported

    @Steam I cant login to my steam account. I reset the password no luck.

  • SkepJAX Skep JaX (@SkepJAX) reported

    @crypto_radin @Steam Mine was banned too but ESCAPECYBER on Instagram got me unbanned he’s a pro on unban service

  • lunaracer1 Lelouch (@lunaracer1) reported

    @2xTacker @SpacePirate_io @Steam So what's the problem with that? I made almost 100k USD from blockchain gaming, but if being a envious crybaby cuz you missed out on opportunities fits you more, then go for it.
