  • the_freakparty UMBRA Freak (@the_freakparty) reported

    @Steam I have requested a refund for Battlefield 2042 six times now, and I keep being rejected. This game is unplayable by all standards and what the community was told the game would be, it is not. This project is broken beyond repair, and I shouldn't be stuck with it.

  • dysonrules Cheryl Dyson (@dysonrules) reported

    I've been trying for AN HOUR to create an account @Steam and it keeps looping me back to the recaptcha. All of the support items on the website require you to sign in. SIGNING IN WOULD BE AMAZING. I WOULD LOVE THAT. #wtf #Iwouldlikeanaccount

    @Steam BETA update has broken the client, I guess we change to normal steam until it's fixed...? client asks to restart to receive new update, after updating.

  • shooter_sin ShooterJaySin (@shooter_sin) reported

    @RavenSoftware where are the Xbox fixes? Quit releasing new skins, bundles, etc and fix your game. You've shown zero concern for console players since games release. Move your garbage to @Steam if you're optimizing for PC. And learn to do your job, and keep your word.

  • sellene716 ѕєℓℓєηє716 🌘 (@sellene716) reported
