    For some reason, the Rtx options in #TheWitcher3NextGen only appear if I start #Steam in big picture. And another problem, the steam link does not stream Witcher 3 if it has been opened in big picture. @CDPROJEKTRED @Steam

  • LeamonBurgart13 Blu Daze (@LeamonBurgart13) reported

    @Steam appreciate the random server disconnect.

  • frenzy_egg 。 ☆بيضة__🥚卵 (@frenzy_egg) reported

    @ANVIL_ACTION2 @Steam Enjoy your gift, Can you please fix the game on xbox game pass can't skip cutscene and can't press A to play

  • MartinAllTech Martin Rivers (@MartinAllTech) reported

    @Heliottus @Steam I’ll suggest you reach out to Backup_security via Instagram he'll fix it immediately, I’m sure of him.

  • KHunter2392 Darkhunter92 (@KHunter2392) reported

    @Call_Me_Tex @Steam Yes I am aware of that haha. But the issue was the game servers not the platform playing on. There is a free trial across platforms but seems to be very limited. If I'm wrong? Then I am wrong and it is an Xbox issue. Also this is the only tweet I have seen about the free play.

  • YiddoLK Lewis (@YiddoLK) reported

    @Steam I keep getting Synchronizing Steam Cloud issue where it doesn't load. How can I fix this annoying issue? Cheers.

  • cathyablett CathyLouiseWriter (@cathyablett) reported

    @Steam your customer service is incredibly unhelpful. I believe my daughter's account has been hacked and the email changed. We cannot get access to the account to get hold of anyone about the issue or to change anything as all messages are being sent to the email address

    @iphoenixi1 @Steam @Steam_Support I had similar problems,I've made several appeals to support system over and over but no help was rendered until I was referred to #dackfixx on Instagram they helped me fix my account they can help you too I admit he's good and legit i think such consistency makes him the best

  • henryll_iwnl Henry (@henryll_iwnl) reported

    @CommanderSlush1 @Steam One time I refunded a game that I played 8 hours straight and just started to crash, then I went to reddit and everybody was complaining about it, so I tried to do the refund and Steam didn't accept it bc 2 hr rule, so I just called my bank and they did it for me...

  • OMaxxximvs Offensiveness MaXXXimVs (@OMaxxximvs) reported

    @Steam >>so well but it's "Crash test dummy" downloading it? Really sad - so much hate over AI I wanted to make myself a zombie playing it all night despite having to help a relative get to an appointment. But I won't buy/play a broken MESS...

  • 1SuperVas SuperVas (@1SuperVas) reported

    @valvesoftware @Steam @Dota2 Please disable picking Razor right now! It's broken #DOTA2

  • Lutzoid Stephen Farrell (@Lutzoid) reported

    @hanne_axel @poncle_vampire @Steam I've rebooted the system. That's as much refreshing as a user is capable. I mean it's *probably* an Xbox issue, but in... Well, since achievements were a thing, I've never seen it happen before, so I thought I'd mention it.

  • jenesisquoi Jenesis 💖 JPEGirl (@jenesisquoi) reported

    Curious why I get so much crap trying to buy and trade to people in my own Family Sharing on @Steam my account is like 13 years old has never had a payment issue or anything, very annoying I can't give my son a TF2 item and not wait 15 days to use it or access the funds I added

  • shanewville Sħanɇ Nɇwvɨ˥łɇ 쉐인 누빌 (@shanewville) reported

    @Steam What's it mean when Steam signin asks for the Autenticator code. But when I attempt signin on the app to get the authenticator code, the app that provides the authenticator codes also asks for an authenticator code. Do I need a special multi-dimensional portal to do this?

  • worldofgamingac jules (@worldofgamingac) reported

    @Steam you have a glitch right now and I cannot sign out of friends so I cannot show offline….

    @SquanchGames @Steam Please fix the Angela skrendle boss fight. She wont spawn and I cannot progress.

  • 1u7k37s benny boi (@1u7k37s) reported

    hey @Steam since you don’t allow for account name changes, is there a way to transfer all my games to a new account? beyond tired of having to type in my deadname to login to an account i regularly use. it’s 2022 there’s no excuse for not allowing the update of a login name 🙄

  • iphoenixi1 iphoenixi (@iphoenixi1) reported

    @Steam @Steam @Steam_Support is there any way we can reach out to any support rep? You guys keep auto replying to my request without even reading through the issue. Seriously, after we spend hundreds of dollars on your platform, this is the service we get?

    @EAHelp @NeedforSpeed @Steam When is the NFS Heat integration for Steam issue gonna be addressed? The game literally will not launch and this has been reported multiple times on the EA forum with nobody providing any solutions. Just how long will you keep neglecting Heat players?
