  • CopperTop__ CopperTop (@CopperTop__) reported

    @FlyPlaneGuy @Steam Their servers must be down. I have the same issue

  • BugBunneh Buggy The Respectable (@BugBunneh) reported

    What does it take for a country to get localized pricing? Romania has been facing this issue since forever as salaries are low (~350 Euro) and it has its own ****** currency. Poland got localized pricing, and the average salary is higher, I think. @Steam @discord

  • jamieyork Jamie York (@jamieyork) reported

    Why does @Steam have no way to disable update on games in 2022? I went to play my modded Skyrim on the Deck, but it updated and now my installation is ****** until fix it on my PC and copy it over to the Deck.

  • JamesDavisMakes James Davis (@JamesDavisMakes) reported

    (I've already contacted @Steam customer service, no need to recommend it)

  • Allegretta81 Anthony :) (@Allegretta81) reported

    @FallGuysGame Can I please have the show bucks that I purchased THREE TIMES due to “transaction error.”? Through @steam. I’ve tried every support route and haven’t gotten an answer from anyone

  • BearClaymore Bear Claymore 🔜 MTG30 (@BearClaymore) reported

    @Steam why is the desktop app asking me to login every-single-time I restart my PC, even when i select “Remember my password” every-single-time”?

  • JonathanFalcons Jonathan Falcon (@JonathanFalcons) reported

    @Steam You have a VERY serious problem with EA games mostly being scams. You should not be allowing EA games to advertise and need to place more rigid standards on what gets thru. 60%+ of your recommended games are drag/drop cash grab EA games.

  • rkannegi Richard Kannegiesser (@rkannegi) reported

    @PdxInteractive @Steam We are sorry to inform everyone that Cities Skylines is no longer functional for working-class customers that can only afford to replace their laptops or PCs every 10 years. Since last week, 99% of CS game would load and then it would crash before opening

  • mike_johnson Mike Johnson (@mike_johnson) reported

    Hello @Steam - I have an account issue but I can't open a ticket. I've been through the support site but the answer isn't there. How do I open a support ticket please?

  • Dynamit3x1 Dynamit3x1 (@Dynamit3x1) reported

    @Steam i have tried all steps on support page but can not use any of them if i can not login or change by email or password

  • punkrawkpics Jay Maynard (@punkrawkpics) reported

    @Steam Im getting over a 100 attempted account logins everyday. I cannot delete the account or block them. I can’t deal with these emails anymore. How do I contact customer service this has been going on for months now and there’s no way to contact anyone on your site.

  • ktphotography99 Kieran (@ktphotography99) reported

    @MicrosoftUK @Windows @Steam it seems there is an issue with AMD laptops having a screen flickering issue, after closing down steam, it does stop but opening it again causes the same issue, this is on windows 11

  • fontaine_colin Colin Fontaine (@fontaine_colin) reported

    @Steam You guys really made me lost all confidence in the quality of your service. Steamdeck paid since 16.08.2022 AND NOTHING YET ! Worse support ever since NO ONE can call you ! You clearly are not ready to sale hardware with this kind of customer support ! Ticket : HT-WVRV-NNMP-WVQJ

    @Steam Your VR program that is REQUIRED by a lot of VR games to even launch and is almost unusable. I have a stable build that's never had problems till SteamVR got involved. No other software has crashed my system so much, I have to power button it almost every time I use it!!

  • codylox @codylox (@codylox) reported

    @digitalleisure You should add a password and login save thing for the @Steam version so that it doesn’t take forever for me to sign in on my @OnDeck because my password is so long

  • GamerIdentity1 Starrion (@GamerIdentity1) reported

    I love how @DeadByBHVR is not addressing or better yet, FIXING the IP address leak issue & hacking in the game. It's getting out of control. Everyone + streamers are suffering from this. You may want to consider delisting the game until the IP leak is fixed @Steam @valvesoftware

  • ArisAlexis Aris Alexis (@ArisAlexis) reported

    @Steam I tried buying the Return to monkey island for 20 mins with 2 different options. The popup is stuck each time and now I am on hold because I tried it too many times. Just fix your system guyz.
