Steam Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Luxxir_ Preloh (@Luxxir_) reported

    @battlenet is the worst game launcher ever created. I would rather run steam on a 1994 desktop. No joke. I haven’t had anything but issues with this dog *** game launcher and I’m uninstalling it for good since @Steam actually knows how to get **** done. You suck @battlenet

  • MisterPublius Publius (@MisterPublius) reported

    @Blizzard_Ent please fix battlenet, I will happily go to @Steam for wz

  • MortalCrux MORTAL CRUX - Wishlist on Steam (@MortalCrux) reported

    @WolfEisberg Thank you! Luckily it's a passion project so burnout isn't an issue like it would be working elsewhere. I'd like to get on as many platforms as possible but right now I can only confirm a launch @Steam

  • rgutlich RG | Rudolf Gütlich (@rgutlich) reported

    Changed my @Steam account this morning bc of an e-mail I received notifying me about an login attemp from CN. After that, I'm now receiving a lot more e-mail notifications, saying that the login is using correct login / password. What about this, Steam?

  • CatDoge_ Ok Boomer, But It's a Cat (@CatDoge_) reported

    @nasirbaradari @LinusTech @Steam I got my account hacked once, got it back in at most a day or two. I'm not saying what you said is untrue, just seems that steam customer service is inconsistent.

  • gone_roguing christian 🇺🇸 (@gone_roguing) reported

    @oSmackyTheFrogo @battlenet @Steam Dude, with all the problems I had with Battlenet since MW2019, as soon as I saw I could use Steam, I jumped on that so fast

  • ChrisMa08207257 Chris Martinez (@ChrisMa08207257) reported

    @SteamStatus @Steam can u fix your ******* servers im getting disconnect so often now on mw2

  • JackTondeur Jack Tondeur (@JackTondeur) reported

    @Steam continually ignoring my request for a refund on a game advertised as fully working on Steam Deck that in fact is not complete-able due to unavoidable crashes just because I've played longer than 2 hours. Really great customer service guys.

  • JeffShawley Jeff R (@JeffShawley) reported

    Knew I should’ve bought MW2 on @Steam instead of @battlenet. Fix ya ****.

  • WaterforStreet1 Water for Street Dogs (@WaterforStreet1) reported

    @Steam impossible to sign in. Have tried captchas for an hour and it says i have done it wrong. I havent. Your site is faulty today. I need help signing in.Why no DMs here or on your so-called support page? I cant go to your help link bcause i cant sign in! Advice, please! #Steam

  • Diamondback145 Diamond (@Diamondback145) reported

    Gotta love the dumpster fire that @Activision is as a company, do *not* buy Modern Warfare 2. If you crash, there's a real chance you will get a permanent game ban, ruining your @Steam Account. Appeals are likely to not work, due to the incompetence of @ATVIAssist.

    @Steam BRO FIX YOUR DOWNLOAD SPEED

  • 1611 َ (@1611) reported

    WTFF Steam, i just got home from a 21 hour shift and was excited to play some #MW2 but your **** is down. Now im forced to pay attention to my wife and kids. FIX NOW! @Steam

  • obelich Obelich (@obelich) reported

    @MasterDuelSite Hi I have a problem i want to clear @YuGiOhCardEU Master Duel in @Steam for transfer my save data from #NintendoSwitch to #Steam #YuGiOhMASTERDUEL have some tips ?

  • serc25091393 serc (@serc25091393) reported

    Download it with @Steam !!! No Problems and fast! Realy bad job @battlenet. I wait about 2 hours with 20 Kbits! @warzone

  • DrippyMaws canine ΘΔ (@DrippyMaws) reported

    Hey @battlenet, what ******** is the issue with your terrible servers? There's no reason in 2022 I should have a download running at 46 KILOBYTES per second. Absolutely unacceptable. Definitely switching to @Steam for everything I can after this.

  • PStabs404 pStabs (@PStabs404) reported

    @NaClyBoi @Steam It is fixed now! I did nothing to fix it :)

  • SeranowLive Seranow (@SeranowLive) reported

    @Steam Why don't you fix all these disconnects. This has been going on the past week at random... With DRM it breaks my ***** big time #cod #MW2 #MWII

  • VDrachenburg Die Gräfin (@VDrachenburg) reported

    @Steam I HATE Steam! For hours the servers are down and NO login possible! 🤬🤬

  • Aixpert1984 Gesellschaftswissenschaftler (@Aixpert1984) reported

    @battlenet Last game on battlenet! @Steam users don't have any problems downloading it!

  • Enderma71741299 Enderman (@Enderma71741299) reported

    @Steam @SurviveIcarus servers appear to have a connection issue on ur side!

  • AlexAlloccaa Alex Allocca (@AlexAlloccaa) reported

    @valvesoftware @Steam_Support @Steam I do not have an account but it appears my email is being used to sign in and I’m getting hundreds of emails with codes. Can someone assist? Unable to submit a ticket unless I have an account…

  • Pridget22 Pridget (@Pridget22) reported

    @dannevangsenzf @Steam The same thing happened to me but I got no help from them thanks to gus_techgramm on I.G who was able to fix it for me I can highly recommend him

  • ShiftyGB Alex Scott (@ShiftyGB) reported

    @_J_GRIFFIN @Steam @battlenet Seems to be reoccurring with Steam. Wished I stayed on BattleNet for MWII now, mainly jumped back to Steam as most mates were on that platform. Do you know if it’s a bug? Is there a way we can fix it? I wonder if there’s some port rules that need adding to our routers?

  • milleniiumkb Victor (@milleniiumkb) reported

    @Steam Did they fix phone number bug?

  • KrakennGamingg KrakennGamingg (@KrakennGamingg) reported

    @BeenoxCODPC @battlenet @Steam is there any update for us that have been banned instantly after game crashed asking to scan and repair? gotta love not even getting to play a match. 74$ instantly thrown in the trash with no support on this issue for us.

  • ShiftyGB Alex Scott (@ShiftyGB) reported

    @_J_GRIFFIN @Steam @battlenet It’s just happened again 🤬 I cannot deal with the amount of crashes that STEAM not MWII has. I mean the first 2-3 weeks were mainly Dev errors for MWII, now it’s non-stop Steam offline errors.

  • Scarecrow_FPS Scarecrow (@Scarecrow_FPS) reported

    @Steam Is steam having download issues like @BlizzardCS ? Beed confirmed before I switch over to steam for MW2/WZ2.

  • NaClyBoi NaCly (@NaClyBoi) reported

    @PStabs404 @Steam It must have been an issue with steam? Regardless, I'm super stoked for you that it resolved itself and you didn't have to stress over it any longer!

  • CSFOX10 CSFOX (@CSFOX10) reported

    @Steam inventory's not working :c
