@GavinRolls @Steam I understand perfectly that means, thanks. If you offer something, knowing that the servers will be with errors, it is a fraud. If you talk by LAW, it is not a fraud, but for the costumer is a fraud. If you don't understand that i want to tell, bad luck.

@SinnedNima @vg_watcher @Steam Oh I wasn’t worried about it leaving my cart. I knew it wasn’t going anywhere. I was just frustrated it wouldn’t go through because the reserve line was just getting longer. I got it after about another half hour. Steam always has issues any time there’s a sale or something big.

@calebvw @Steam Same here. I had errors for 2 straight hours despite being there at 10am PDT. This is a load of barnacles

@film_girl @Steam I have 3k titles on Steam and I don't see this being an issue warranting anger? Folk aren't owed a reservation, and this has no negative impact on our existing libraries... Valve haven't done us *****. It's a booking system getting overloaded, which is hardly unique to Steam.

@JohnSheafferSr @Steam @TheAtari_VCS This tweet makes me concerned there's "a lot of💩" when I was just about to go pick one up. Now I'm going to hold off. Hold no ideas there were problems getting Steam on the VCS. But if others have problems, this makes me wonder if I would too. Probably best to hold off then.

@Steam extremely frustrated... errors told me to "Try Again"... I try again, and I get a purchase cooldown! I am now 6 months behind everyone else in line because of YOUR SYSTEM. I signed onto Steam at EXACTLY 1PM and couldn't reserve until HOURS LATER... FIX THIS!!!

@zen_n22 @CMDRArchadder @Steam And where are you getting that from? Because I would assume steam will have a "void if broken" seal on the inside of the unit if you were to open it up and mod/change hardware.

@Steam your #steamdeck is cool. But my biggest issue is 512GB max storage? That isn't even enough for all the Triple AAA games I play on my Steam Account. I am betting people would Love to see some options to increase storage to maybe 2TB? Could allow upgrades to specific parts?

@LadyT0pHat @Steam This is why I’m glad I started the game in the third round of beta before the Steam version was ever a thing. I remember people having issues with third party mods back in the day on the Steam version as well.

@angel220687 @calebvw @Steam At least you only dealt with the errors for about 25 minutes. I was dealing with the errors for almost an hour and a half to now be placed in Q2. Glad you didn't suffer as much though. I'm just upset they screw the lot of us in general.

@Rudemmon @Steam SD cards are alot slower which means potential performance problems in game and slower load times in general. In comparison some of the fastest microSD cards only go up to 200MB/s read 200MB/s write whereas a decent gen 4 NVME can do 4000MB/s read 2000MB/s write. Big difference.

@Barnacules @Steam Trouble is as with other hardware, they have a track record of dropping it very quickly.

@CaseyExplosion @valvesoftware @Steam what is Valve's incentive here? the economics of this thing baffle me anyway, but "getting the money, but not have people get their hands and have problems with it" sounds like a win/win

Is there any way to stop that livestream broadcast thing from popping up in store pages on @Steam ? Always ends up lagging my potato internet/computer with it autoplaying.
