    @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.

    James Arslan (@JamesArslanSwe) reported

    Massive props to @Steam . Courier dropped my Steam Controller 4 hours from my address (same one my Steam Deck reached just fine), couldn't be rerouted — so they sent a replacement AND gifted me Forza Horizon 6 to make up for it. Downloading now. This is how customer service should work 🎮 @ForzaHorizon

    Creo (@Creo_exe) reported

    Alright I need to talk about the customer support over at @valvesoftware and @Steam That **** goes SO HARD. Like, idk what y'all are teaching your employees, but keep that going. EVERY time I've needed ANYTHING you've always been a great help. This is why I use your service.

    Hey @Steam any chance of talking to someone? Your website is a bit **** when trying to navigate and resolve an issue, so I need a real person.

    @herogamer0108 @Steam Transaction error when I try to buy a game as a gift using my Steam wallet.

    @valvesoftware @Steam I'll just be happy if it doesn't crash or freeze when I try to make my reservation

    @Judokast @Smthingedgy @Steam There's problems with Steam. The review filter is a big one for me. They applied an off topic review bomb filter to a game that rightfully deserved it for censorship.

  • GroyperDoom
    Dr. Doom Groyper (@GroyperDoom) reported

    @Moonie__OS @Steam I dont see what the problem is?

  • onermertt
    mertowski (@onermertt) reported from Germencik, Aydın

    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

    @HyperLovingBun @valvesoftware @Steam The controller isn't effected by RAM price increases, so that shouldn't be an issue...

    @choehau_ara @Steam @Steam_Support So then they should fix it.... As their consoles run Linux afterall

    @tbsun13 @Moonie__OS @Steam Yeah, and? If I find it funny and even want to pay for that game, what’s the problem? Mind your own business.

    @OKarma_OK @Steam @Steam_Support I had this issue and ADCGSECURE took care of it.

  • greg_opera
    Gregory Opera (@greg_opera) reported

    @minkrov @Anaya_sharma876 @Steam The games themselves aren't the problem - most anticheat systems actually support Linux *natively* these days... The problem is that the developers behind many multiplayer games *choose* to blacklist Linux because they're anti-Linux. Also, they're a small part of the industry.

    @ShiroSaints777 @Steam What's the error showing?

  • danny_mcnasty
    that guy (@danny_mcnasty) reported

    @smith_rust @valvesoftware @Steam While I hate scalpers, and they were no doubt part of the problem by being apart of the server load, it's not their fault I couldn't purchase one. I had it in my cart at 10:00 PT, immediately went to checkout, and was never able to complete the purchase. My error message didn't change from "error initializing your transaction" to "items in your cart are out of stock" for 40 minutes. This is on Valve and their backend not being able to handle the purchasing traffic. I just hope they're able to identify the issues and make updates so this doesn't happen again in the next batch, the Steam Box, or the Frame

    @valvesoftware @Steam Would've been nice if your servers would've let me purchase it. Got errors 30 mins straight and then it was sold out

  • isthatvark
    TheVark (@isthatvark) reported

    @IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck Had this issue as well, truly unfortunate they didn't let cart holders hold onto their spot. This error eventually went away after 30-40 mins, and just got a sold out notification at check out. truly cooked.

    @Null1130250 @valvesoftware @Steam They've had YEARS to fix their international supply problems, I had to buy my Steam Deck from a third party just because I live a few kilometers below Texas.

    **** @Steam and their broken website.

  • EveilCharm
    EVEILCHARM (@EveilCharm) reported

    @ChibiReviews People should be losing their **** over the fact that payment processors wouldn't dare touch a game this big that will drag their asses to court if they tried to deny service. Wish @Steam would step up for the games on it's platform too.
