-
olafkswg - Buying Skins 95% (@olafkswg) reportedIs this a planned change with no announcement or a bug? Broken trade history suggests the other, @Steam support can't answer this question.
-
HellowJack (@BiohazardHawk) reported@valvesoftware @Steam will it be a revisioned model soon? usually the first batch has some problems
-
moT (@moTtheWhite) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam Lol, steams not the problem. Your ****** launcher is
-
Fredinator (@Fredinator85) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam This is bullshit and you know it. It is your broken launcher failing. Get rid of uplay. Nobody uses it anyway unless they are forced to
-
Klassischer Mann (@KlassischeMann) reported@MatthewJPipoly @valvesoftware @Steam It wasn't sold out with that error. The servers were slammed. If you were smart, you would have kept hitting refresh until you got in.
-
Thorne (@ThorneAbrams) reported@AntiFurVoreGore @valvesoftware @Steam "Fairness" isn't getting special treatment because you've been a user for a long time. It’s everyone having the same 1-unit limit so the scalpers you’re complaining about can’t drain the stock. You’re asking to be part of the problem.
-
J. Ilmari (@hide_X666) reported@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
-
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.

xChuckWagonx (@realChuckWagonx) reported@Sheltyb803 @PlayStation @Steam play the dam game is all it is. Just login and play a game
-
Snow (@Snowmobile2004) reported@IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck It’s not broken, you just had to keep clicking. Worked for me on the 10th try. They were basically being ddosed so this is to be expected
-
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.
-
PaTryk_Gracz0l (@patrykgracz0l) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam funny that isnt a problem with any other non ubisoft game, detele the ******* launcher requriement
-
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 :)
-
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.
-
135.x (@135dotx) reported@Pirat_Nation Don't care. Microslop had years➕ to fix @Windows & are only doing it now bc losing ppl to Linux & @Steam. These companies will never learn – I hope gamers finally do. Money is voting power & I haven't spent any since "Xbox One (won)".
-
Taco Man (@TacoMaestro_) reported@ajshpprd @Steam Same here. I even preloaded my steam wallet to try to avoid any issues
-
Moonfishy (@The__Moonfish) reported@Steam fix your damn CAPTCHA i just want my account back.
-
Josue Roberto (@rsencion) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Guys, seriously! what do you have against mexicans? Mexico is like right frikking there! right there, and still you wont ship to this frikking country. 😭 what is you problem? you ship to frikking Canada! for christ sakes 🙄
-
justinseans (@justinseans) reported@IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck "That’s not demand, that’s a broken purchase system." Shut up Grok
-
ꞡɍ੩ɏཏħⱥđθⱳ (@gr3yb1rd) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam just don't buy Ubislop games and the problem is solved
-
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.
-
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.
-
ty (@thetyl0413) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam 11 times out of 10 the problem is with Uplay tho
-
Colin Archer (@logincrash) reported@itsmeepui @UbisoftSupport @Steam I've looked for a solution to this problem and all I got is a bunch of people saying **** like "Just don't log out." or "Write down your password." Like, *****, the Remember Me tick is there AND IT DOESN'T ******* WORK. It's not on me to fix this. Your launcher ******* SUCKS!
-
titan.holo (@TitanHoloCS) reported@nobullet4u @Steam no problem 🙏
-
$!|b!r0b! (@silbirobi) reported@RealMarcFoxx Okay👍 But I have to criticize @Steam @Steam_Support I have to perform a login to play offline. That's just wrong and have to change.
-
iDrinkBourbon (@Disco_Drew523) reported@IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck That happened to me too. You have spam that check out button eventually it loaded correctly and went to next step. At the end of the day it was broken. Also I noticed controller went live 3 min before 1PM EST. Maybe that’s what broke it

Star Scream (@StarScream7wj6) reported@Fen0505 @valvesoftware @Steam Prioritize people who bought and played games on their accounts, this with long service badges, and older than 6 months to a year
