    @The_FrostySinZ @UbisoftSupport @Steam As they say, piracy is a service issue, in this new age of lack of real ownership, bad launchers, bad products, DRM ruining performance and etc., it is no wonder piracy is on the rise again. I don't do it myself, but I get it, they need to earn our money and trust again.

    @valvesoftware @Steam Fix your storefront so people can actually make transactions or stock enough so people can purchase them.

    @UbisoftSupport @Steam @UbisoftSupport the source of the problem is ur own goddamn launcher and not steam so don't spread misinformation .

    All 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.

    @valvesoftware @Steam Just keep selling controllers at the same price till scalpers give up buying, infinite money glitch and then it could be available to all of the customers right now. Would advise for everyone to not even buy the reselling options from ebay. @valvesoftware

    @Smthingedgy I've never once had a problem with @Steam . From refunds to technical problems whatever and do you know what other company I can say that about these days? NONE, the ******* answer is NONE! Gabe fulfilled the social contract. He gave us what we need and want, he gets a yacht.

    @UbisoftSupport @Steam It's your game, not their, and it's your launcher causing the problem. Nobody likes you and the reason is this kind of bullshit on top of your dogshit code

    @valvesoftware @Steam Sucks you were able to let me put in money no problem, but let the scalpers buy everything.

    @MatthewJPipoly @valvesoftware @Steam It wasn't sold out with that error. The servers were slammed. If you were smart, you would have kept hitting refresh until you got in.

    iDrinkBourbon (@Disco_Drew523) reported

    @IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck That happened to me too. You have spam that check out button eventually it loaded correctly and went to next step. At the end of the day it was broken. Also I noticed controller went live 3 min before 1PM EST. Maybe that’s what broke it

  • Snowmobile2004
    Snow (@Snowmobile2004) reported

    @IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck It’s not broken, you just had to keep clicking. Worked for me on the 10th try. They were basically being ddosed so this is to be expected

    @valvesoftware @Steam Scalpers took all the stock. Please fix.

    @valvesoftware @Steam Anyone having issues, try via the app.

    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.

    @UbisoftSupport @Steam Why u blaming Steam? when 99% of the issues come from your stupid UPlay launcher and denuvo. the ******* nerve to tweet this...

    @rvmpvq3 @CantAiim @Steam the problem is, you shouldn't NEED to use these workarounds considering that the games are still 20 dollars on sale
