Steam Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
HellowJack (@BiohazardHawk) reported@valvesoftware @Steam will it be a revisioned model soon? usually the first batch has some problems
-
Sigma The Fox (@SigmaTheFox) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam clearing steam's download cache does not fix "games not starting" issues at all, ubisoft. it only deletes what is currently being downloaded... Why would a game that relies on your useless launcher not start because of a download happening on steam, when it's ready to play?
-
PoLy. (@TheRealDarkSole) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam This is a problem Ubisoft created. Not Steams fault.
-
William (@WilliamTimeMage) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Just bought mine had no issues. Im in australia if that makes a difference.
-
Steward (@wolfybbad) reported@IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck You just had to keep clicking continue. There was a bajillion users all trying to buy at the same time, no system can handle that its basically a DDoS attack lol.
-
Dragon 369 (@Nuqle0us) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Fix Your Anticheat on cs2 every game is 1 or 3 cheaters AAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!
-
CranberryClock (@cranberryclock) reported@DalaranCrater @Steam It was a nightmare, but it got solved. If I used desktop browser it would ask for my steam guard to login, totally fine, then I would scan and it would be like: Now use the app to Confirm…. No notifications, nothing in confirmation. So then I made my way after 20 attempts to a mobile version which allowed me to get to the next screen which required my mobile app, which when it went to the page would just load the page in the app the ask me while in the app to swap screens to verify the number, resulting in a loop restarting the process.

Ignyte (@DJignyte) reported@Steam @discord @Windows The CLOSEST thing I got to it working the way I want, is by launching steam or discord via powershell. Which half works (does for Discord). But I launch steam by right-clicking on the icon and selecting 'Friends' so the friends list appears. Which the powershell thing doesnt fix.
-
CelticTiger (@IRISHANARCHY199) reported@KlassischeMann @valvesoftware @Steam I think the main reason for the frustration is the storefront collapsing under the pressure within the first second of the item going up for purchase. I wouldn’t have gotten one myself if I hadn’t brute-forced the continue button on the purchase screen that kept giving errors.
-
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.
-
Colton Pospichal (@PospichalColton) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Fix your storefront so people can actually make transactions or stock enough so people can purchase them.
-
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
-
xChuckWagonx (@realChuckWagonx) reported@Sheltyb803 @PlayStation @Steam play the dam game is all it is. Just login and play a game
-
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.

Skywalker D. Luiee (@LuieeSkyWalker) reported@Steam @Steam_Support I’ve been trying to checkout the steam controller since it went live keep getting an error and now it’s sold out? I should’ve been able to purchase at 10am pct when I put it in my cart
