    When are you planning to address the cheating issue in this game? We come in hoping for some peace and enjoyment, but we end up leaving with red marks of frustration. Please review the account I've submitted a ticket for! @Steam @Steam_Support @CounterStrike

    @valvesoftware @Steam When will it be back in stock I tried like 20 times to purchase it and I kept getting an error. 😭

    @KlassischeMann @valvesoftware @Steam you need to check, before making outrageous comments. the issue in hand is scalpers buying them. So, if users are getting upset mentioning about scalpers, then the "morons" remarks is baseless.

    @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

    @IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck It is server overload, dummy. Nothing was broken. You are just retarded.

    @IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck Payment processors have rate limits, chief. Too many people wanted controllers at once. Every platform exclusive has this problem, it's frustrating as heck.

    Eldritch Boggart (@EldritchBoggart) reported

    @valvesoftware @Steam Fix your system, given that everyone was getting a transaction error, this has to be one of the biggest console hardware launch debacles in the last decade. Guess people who wanted one are out of luck because you can't handle payment transactions properly during a blitz.

  • Injuryyuy
    Hellothere (@Injuryyuy) reported

    @valvesoftware @Steam Yeah I'm not happy with Valve right now. I was there right on time. Every time I tried to push payment through the page gave a weird error. Next thing you know I check and it's sold out. They need to figure some sort of system out to fight off the bots to make it more fair.

    @Pirat_Nation I love the @Steam support team. Out of all of them Steam support was always there to help and always found a solution to a problem no matter if it's hardware or software. The last time I had to contact Steam support was with a out of warranty Index Controller. They were out of stock at the time and I wanted to see how much they would charge to fix it. After some troubleshooting steps they offered to replace the controller for free (and this was around 2 to 3 months out of warranty). For me I'll buy from Valve before I buy from anyone else, I'm looking forward to the Steam Controller and Steam Frame. @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.

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

    @valvesoftware @Steam Gave up on trying to buy one. Damn store was broken with nothing but errors. Guess I’ll get one in a year or so.

    @stroopwaffelyt @FzzyBzzy @Steam Having freedom is a problem according to people like you. It's a free market and it's not even telling people commit ****. Don't bring that "it influences people" Personal choice is personal choice just as you are virtue signaling right now.

    @KlassischeMann @valvesoftware @Steam **** off ****, there is plenty of reason for criticism, scalpers are an issue they had figured out and solve on the Deck launch, this was failed roll out. If it genuinely was sold we would be more understanding and happy for Valve. This was a mistep **** sucking fanboi.
