  • S2IsThrill 으엉🦊 (@S2IsThrill) reported

    @Steam Sir. I am a human. and I am sick of your application saying I am not human and I'm a robot. I am very much alive and I have deleted the cookies and It still doesn't work. Now I have to re-login to all of my accounts and I just just ughhhh

  • WratekPL Wratek (@WratekPL) reported

    @Mario6493 @Steam It works, but it's very complicated. On startup game wants to take picture of your face for your driving licence. Deactivate your camera drivers and event virtual cameras like OBS Virtual Camera to make game playable. If you still have some issues turn on offline mode in origin.

  • jamieagatharose @jamieagatharose (@jamieagatharose) reported

    @cindershad0w @BigfryTV @Steam I'm not surprised. Steam hides behind this "Not our problem, take it up with the publisher." approach to pretty much everything.

  • anayatchy Anayat Chowdhury (@anayatchy) reported

    @Steam please help, stuck on recaptcha and can’t reset my password. Tried everything from flushing dns to clearing cookies. Recaptcha seems to only be an issue on steam the site keeps telling me I failed it even when I haven’t.

  • PatrickKul Patrick Kulikowski (@PatrickKul) reported

    @BadTakeEnjoyer @Steam I had a hard time getting the game to not crash past the initial loading screen and unskippable opening. Ended up getting it on PS4 instead. Your mileage may vary!

  • MoazAyoubi Moaz Ayoubi (@MoazAyoubi) reported

    @Steam Hey, since the may 13th steam update black ops 3 just broke.Decreased performance, stuttering in the menu i did my research and i suppose its a problem with dlc checking stuff thats why if you launch steam in offline mode and then launch the game there is no problems at

    @Steam PLS fix your Captcha!

  • dropt02 colby potter (@dropt02) reported

    just steam problems. reset my pc so i can’t log into steam. the captcha keeps popping error on two devices and one steam install so can’t reset password. only way to reach steam support is to log in and do a ticket. guess all that money is wasted bc @Steam can’t help w/o login.
