    @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.

    @valvesoftware @Steam just a friendly tip for my favourite company of all time, due to the controller issue recently, limit the steam frame and machine 1 per household, and a similar process to the new controller protocol you just announced. To stop trolls. So we don’t miss out.

    @Moonie__OS @Steam I don't see a problem. Just a game.

    Michael (@MikeTriceratops) reported

    @smith_rust @valvesoftware @Steam Anybody that actually pays them those prices and rewards them for their scummy selfish behavior is only perpetuating the issue and encouraging them to continue scalping. Out of principle, I will wait however long I need to in order to purchase directly from Valve.

    @Moonie__OS @Steam I dont see what the problem is?

    @SteamVR @Steam I fully unplugged my pc and still got a error 450

  • FancyMeatCPU

  • TheVisitorSNAFU
    Smitty Werbenjagermanjensen (@TheVisitorSNAFU) reported

    @GooningOnRumble @Steam Did stream also crash? Some delisted products if gifted from an inventory won’t work and can crash the system. Also is the game sold in the West or is it an Asian game like Dead Or Alive volleyball?

    @Steam @Steam_Support do you have a random shipment generator for orders as it seems you are shipping the steam controllers randomly. I ordered at 57 just before, and my wife's at 18 past because you were broken for her. It's Def not in any kind of order which seems unfair. :(

  • The_Novu
    Novu (@The_Novu) reported

    @Steam Gaben is the best and we love Steam but it'd be VERY unfortunate for this to be a problem when I've spent well over a thousand dollars on Steam over the past 15 years.

  • Tristan_fergus
    CaptainSp33dy (@Tristan_fergus) reported

    @KlassischeMann @valvesoftware @Steam you need to check, before making outrageous comments. the issue in hand is scalpers buying them. So, if users are getting upset mentioning about scalpers, then the "morons" remarks is baseless.

    @OKarma_OK @Steam @Steam_Support I had this issue and ADCGSECURE took care of it.

    @PlayWarframe It's probably not you, it's probably the @Steam problems that got reported earlier

    Who sends such blasphemous drivel on such a stout and honorable platform as X platinum? Wait, is this X platinum? Doxxing the nefarious Indian engineers at every attempt to scam me of a $40 @Steam gift card. Timeless wavelength. But can he sustain it through the market rush for @arcimoto stock this morning. Magic Eight-Ball: Sources say it's a possibility. Coffeepot check? coffee pot is locked in. Is @tomhanks tired, tied, awake, asleep? Does Jennifer Aniston not know that our "relationship" is strictly public. I have had women injure me; I'm sure Rikki will write to me in less than 90 minutes. I will slap some restaurant-quality cologne and take forkfuls of my slovenly self down to her office By 3pm we'll probably have cancer half cured. And then you'll all be like, "no, really, how in ******** did he just vanish in the night DESPITE ALL THOSE NIFTY SATELLITES that you *think* can track me. One day you will understand why every time you try to think of the next step you fail. One person makes their first jump. You don't usually live. Time goes so very fast. And? Well, then Twitter is STILL BROKEN. Or.... This: Becomes yet another curious description of the way people approach me...or someone is afraid of me. And to that I say sad again, but I still will not quit.

    Massive props to @Steam . Courier dropped my Steam Controller 4 hours from my address (same one my Steam Deck reached just fine), couldn't be rerouted — so they sent a replacement AND gifted me Forza Horizon 6 to make up for it. Downloading now. This is how customer service should work 🎮 @ForzaHorizon

    @Moonie__OS @Steam this looks like a fun game what’s the problem?

    @valvesoftware @Steam Would've been nice if your servers would've let me purchase it. Got errors 30 mins straight and then it was sold out

    Ness_and_Sonic (@Ness_and_Sonic) reported

    @Judokast @Smthingedgy @Steam There's problems with Steam. The review filter is a big one for me. They applied an off topic review bomb filter to a game that rightfully deserved it for censorship.

    @OKarma_OK @Steam @Steam_Support Just a heads up MillerNerd1 can fix this.

    "There seems to have been an error initializing or updating your transaction. Please wait a minute and try again or contact support for assistance." yo, @Steam_Support @Steam Let me get a controller.

    Sapien Voice (@Sapien_Voice) reported

    @Steam So fed up, having to log into those UNNECESSARY gaming-platforms (even f offliners)! Let's look at the consumer-perspective: you are forced into being monitored and exploited! I remember much better user-service as long as developer/publishers managed servicing all by themselves.

  • AzureCrux
    AzureCrux (@AzureCrux) reported

    @IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck Payment processors have rate limits, chief. Too many people wanted controllers at once. Every platform exclusive has this problem, it's frustrating as heck.

    @luvk8e @Moonie__OS @Steam Funny how basically all races in USA have no problem with each other except blacks . Why is that ?

    @stroopwaffelyt @FzzyBzzy @Steam Having freedom is a problem according to people like you. It's a free market and it's not even telling people commit ****. Don't bring that "it influences people" Personal choice is personal choice just as you are virtue signaling right now.
