  • phoenixn91 Dracullaeus Crimson 👑 | 🎧 Project Harmonize 🎧 (@phoenixn91) reported

    @Steam Actually considered buying it, but damn it if the store would freaking let me buy it, and not give me a damn error message each time I try buying it (sadly changing payment methods won't work either, not like it should even matter what someone uses as long it has money on it)

  • Revampedneonpt revamped neon plushtrap (@Revampedneonpt) reported

  • SamuelHulick 🎆 🌸 Samuel Hulick 🌸 🌄 (@SamuelHulick) reported

    @jessethanley @Steam I understand the logistics of what you're saying, but if a "whack structure" made Figma more money I'm pretty sure Adobe wouldn't have had a problem with that. It's not like it was an acqui-hire

  • cooljammi18 Faith Lewis (@cooljammi18) reported

    @Nept1k @Steam GO inbox MYSTICHACKED07 on Instagram My account also bugged and support service aren’t doing anything about it, he successfully retrieved my account, he is the best.

  • KingCrandall Scott King Crandall (@KingCrandall) reported

    @Steam you need to fix your program. First, it wouldn't log me in. After several hours of play I saved and exited the game. For your next trick, I kept seeing "Quit your game before logging out". I had. I also couldn't restart the game, as it was "running". Fix your updates.

  • AlexanderMat1 Alexander Mat (@AlexanderMat1) reported

    @ta__tech @Plagman2 @Steam So spent the weekend on this, installed everything on the ssd, and still had the extreme stutter, tried then using my phones hotspotband its 0 lag, drove extra to a friends house and game works like a charm on his internet. Try with your phone hotspot

  • Jashba270 Jessica (@Jashba270) reported

    Hey @DisneyDLV - why is @Steam asking me to agree to install the game when I played earlier today? Is there a glitch on your end or theirs? I am loving this game so much, I want to play!!!

  • kyleirelandtech Kyle Ireland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@kyleirelandtech) reported

    @ChrisBtw___ @Steam Sign out then sign in maybe.

  • fox_flat Fox #FuckTheWar (@fox_flat) reported

    Am I the only one who has problem completing a purchase on @Steam? Every time I try I'm told the purchase couldn't be completed.. Any known issues at the moment @Steam_Support ?

  • ta__tech TA Tech (@ta__tech) reported

    @AlexanderMat1 @Plagman2 @Steam I'm running Windows on ssd. I don't recommend using the sd for Windows it's crap. Fifa runs well but ping issues still not solved by EA.

  • BenDreger1 Ben Dreger (@BenDreger1) reported

    @PraeyForTheGods @Steam I see this game is discounted on playstation, and was considering getting it. Have most of the issues at launch been patched out?

  • zudo___ zudo (@zudo___) reported

    Obviously, this won't be possible if Chaos;Head Noah doesn't get released on Steam. Fix this, @valvesoftware @Steam #SaveChaosHead #SaveSciADV

  • shameonyoudule shameonyoudule (@shameonyoudule) reported

    @Steam @Terraria_Logic Go ahead and get it while it's cheap, but I'd wait for 1.4.4.3 to play it. New worlds seem to crash on saving.

  • ToknSquirrel Squirrel = Pronoun (@ToknSquirrel) reported

    All the offense meant, @Steam, you're retarded. Why is there ZERO DIRECT contact to a REPRESENTATIVE? My issue involves losing the EMAIL to my account, which means I can't RECOVER my account to contact YOU for help. So now what? Do I just lose the entire account and START OVER?

  • partha06 Partha Goswami (@partha06) reported

    @Steam we are trying to recover our account but unable to do so because at final stage its always showing page error, a help is appreciated to recover it

  • Lucas49451737 Lucas (@Lucas49451737) reported

    @Steam iRacing is no longer accepting renewals on my account through Steam. The problem is not mine but between iRacing and Steam. If they do not provide me with the service, it is appropriate that they return my money or is it a scam by Steam for charging a renew that not works.

  • DaScorpion81 DaScorpion (@DaScorpion81) reported

    First time I've ever had to ask for a refund because I couldn't get a game to work on @Steam. @EASPORTSFIFA please get your game fixed. Can't believe you all are having this kind of issue. This isn't a new game. Really wanted to play it. #FIFA23 #FIFA23AntiCheat @EASPORTS

  • milsonGab Milson Gabriel (@milsonGab) reported

    @olivers44806944 @Steam Just write him about issue man

  • SamuelHulick 🎆 🌸 Samuel Hulick 🌸 🌄 (@SamuelHulick) reported

    @jessethanley @Steam I also see the "get bigger and become more traditionally-structured" thing happen a lot, so agreed there as well. The problem that I see with that is traditional org structures aren't digital-native. You shouldn't be selling software the same way you sell mops.
