-
R Daneel Olivaw (@thelinemain) reported@MCDEEZFN @Half_Life_III @Steam No third-party controller will work on Xbox without a paid license, and even then, it will only work via cable. Xinput is the issue for Windows PCs, but it can be used with an Xinput emulator, just like any other third-party controller such as the DualSense.
-
Przemek M. (@Zamaszysty) reported@TeeJayTheory @valvesoftware @Steam I guess it depends on your grip. I don't see any issues with it at all, but I have large hands and have no issues with reaching anything in any controller I've ever used so far. I don't think I'd have issues here either.

ThisOldGuy 🤘🎸🎮 (@ThisOldGuy3) reported@Cyberpunk100 @Steam I dropped the code in your DM's let me know if you have any issues. 👊🎮
-
Mark (@Mr_Y21350) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Fix the trackpads to function like the gyro system of the joysticks and you can remove the joysticks all together. Also needs more buttons to properly adapt to pc games. Might be neat if you also had a mini keyboard attachment like the old Xbox 360 controllers.

Calculated (@CalculatedNtry) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam It's your ****** launcher that's the problem
-
ammar (@AMMAR1137205) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam Rainbow Six Siege is asking for an activation code even though it's free-to-play. The game shows as owned on both Steam and Ubisoft Connect. Steam ID: 76561199701512544. This is a license sync issue on your end, please escalate to your technical team
-
virhillyo (@virhillyo) reported@Steam @Steam_Support @OnDeck hey valve, I was wondering if someone can help me with an issue I have with my Steam Deck? My deck won’t go into sleep mode if I press the power button and I have to do it through the steam button which is a bit tedious. Would appreciate any help :)
-
derrrp (@cryptoderrp) reported@valvesoftware @Steam please fix cs2 on linux so we can ditch windows
-
Vigilant loves you (@BrutusBruteCSGO) reported@valvesoftware @steam @CounterStrike please fix
-
hombo (@RGB_MIDAS) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam Actually the issue usually lies within your launcher and not Steam's. There is absolutely no reason why I need to enter my password every time for *some* games but it works fine for others. There has never been a single day where uPlay/Ubisoft Connect has been good.
-
Dragon 369 (@Nuqle0us) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Fix Your Anticheat on cs2 every game is 1 or 3 cheaters AAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!
-
Michael Spencer (@ReadFuturist) reported@Steam are you using AI in your customer service now? Literally the worst experience I've ever had being locked out of my account! Definitely considering migrating off of this platform. About to tell everyone I know.
-
yoda you can call me (@eastsidepier) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam already 24 hours and still can’t connect to that **** server. fix that **** up
-
ꞡɍ੩ɏཏħⱥđθⱳ (@gr3yb1rd) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam just don't buy Ubislop games and the problem is solved
-
Mikey Fn P (@KingOfFroggs10) reported@Sheltyb803 @PlayStation @Steam Steam has the same issue
-
Torelethain (@torelethain) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Seriously guys, why did you not roll this out like the Deck to prevent scalpers? You already had this problem solved. Big disappointment, guess I'll have to wait now.
-
SupaRush⭕🐿️ (@SupaRush) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Already know this will instantly sell out or the site will crash despite people saying it cost too much.
-
Sydney Louw Butler (@GendoWasRight) reported@TankeryChan @valvesoftware @Steam Amazon has no trouble shipping **** right to my door
-
Matt Delapaz (@delapaz_matt) reported@0bscuratea @valvesoftware @Steam Meanwhile ps5 is $60 with stick drift that can happen out of nowhere with no good fix
-
Chad Oliver ☮️ 🖖 (@EternalCMO) reported@Sheltyb803 @PlayStation @Steam Most digital storefronts,including Steam, require a login to verify game licenses; it varies how often. That timer on newly purchased PSN games is to fix a loophole where customers were receiving refunds, but still had access. It'll go away once the 30-day refund window closes.
-
Nick Lopez (@mortifera142) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Your payment processing is tossing our errors.
-
Plundy (@Plundypops) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam get rid of your dogshit third party launcher and denuvo and wouldn't have these problems
-
97skynet (@97skynet) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Added to cart at launch, but then nothing but error messages until a minute after launch when it showed out of stock. But at least the scalpers were able to get them. They are gong for $300 on eBay. Can’t say I’m surprised, just disappointed.
-
Evilyn G Havisham (@EvilynHavisham) reported@valvesoftware @Steam I CAN'T WAIT FOR MY CONTROLLER TO ARRIVE BROKEN IN THE MAIL!
-
Spacefish (@Spacefish) reported@valvesoftware @Steam "There seems to have been an error initializing or updating your transaction. Please wait a minute and try again or contact support for assistance." :(
-
Torelethain (@torelethain) reported@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.
-
justinseans (@justinseans) reported@IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck "That’s not demand, that’s a broken purchase system." Shut up Grok
-
Eldritch Boggart (@EldritchBoggart) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Fix your payment system. Broken system so everyone missed out on the pathetically low quantity of controllers you provided for purchase.
-
Sarge 🔞 (@hiddensarge) reported@cooliocool7997 @valvesoftware @Steam Yeah it's really pricey for us. However I do prefer this at that pricepoint than my current xbox one controlller that got a tons of issues (one been they sometike forget they are linked to my pc, or refuse to close down while holding down the xbox logo buttons
-
Pezzy (@Pezzy03) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Fix the steamdeck stock before releasing new ****
