-
Torelethain (@torelethain) reported@KlassischeMann @valvesoftware @Steam **** off ****, there is plenty of reason for criticism, scalpers are an issue they had figured out and solve on the Deck launch, this was failed roll out. If it genuinely was sold we would be more understanding and happy for Valve. This was a mistep **** sucking fanboi.

Ivan Ironfist (@IvanIronfist) reported@Moonie__OS @Steam - Big hit reg issue causing you to hit slaves by accident - Lots of micro at the start - No mechanics explanation but not too hard to figure out - Needs more lore and house staff - Needs slaves of different races with different buffs - Cost $1 which is not bad but lacks content

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?
-
Herr Dieter (@dieter_rage) reported@Moonie__OS @Steam What exactly is the problem?

-
Hellothere (@Injuryyuy) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Yeah I'm not happy with Valve right now. I was there right on time. Every time I tried to push payment through the page gave a weird error. Next thing you know I check and it's sold out. They need to figure some sort of system out to fight off the bots to make it more fair.

A Sticknodes Pro UTTP Officer (@KhalilParh16872) reported@Steam I TRIPLE DOG DOUBLE D DARE YA TO MAKE A FOOD SERVICE!
-
Michael (@MikeTriceratops) reported@HyperLovingBun @valvesoftware @Steam The controller isn't effected by RAM price increases, so that shouldn't be an issue...
-
IoriShakor (aka Jamaal) (@IoriShakor) reported@Snowmobile2004 @Steam @OnDeck I'm glad it worked for you, but it looks like a lot of other people have the same issue and tried more times. The algorithm God blessed you
-
Chudley Max (@M4xRe4lWell) reported@Moonie__OS @Steam I fail to see an issue.
-
Stephen McHugh (@longshotmagoo) reported@IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck I knew the controller would sell out fairly quick like but 30 mins is insane haha. Valves biggest problem is filling demand, that's a great problem lol
-
RePete (@RePeteW) reported@Dexerto Nice @Steam Way to give some epic customer service!
-
Powercheif (@Powercheif) reported@IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck I was able to get through the error message and purchase it.
-
Clemson Cuz (@ClemsonCuz) reported**** @Steam and their broken website.
-
Barry Ticks (@BarryTCks) reported@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.
-
ViDEOGOMEZ (@videogomez) reported@Null1130250 @valvesoftware @Steam They've had YEARS to fix their international supply problems, I had to buy my Steam Deck from a third party just because I live a few kilometers below Texas.
-
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.
-
Chris Hancock (@wimpdragon) reported@NakiVT @Steam Not to mention that this game looks like clewr ai? Not sure if that's normal on steam to allow Not as big of an issue as what you pointed out, but it adds to it being ****
-
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
-
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.
-
97skynet (@97skynet) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Added to cart at launch, but then nothing but error messages until a minute after launch when it showed out of stock. But at least the scalpers were able to get them. They are gong for $300 on eBay. Can’t say I’m surprised, just disappointed.

Taco Man (@TacoMaestro_) reported@ajshpprd @Steam Same here. I even preloaded my steam wallet to try to avoid any issues

PolishSuperior (@Lukasz_Owczar89) reported@valvesoftware @Steam #grok Valve was indeed heavily focused on Steam Machines, SteamOS, and the #SteamController in the first half of 2013. Prototypes of the controller were presented at CES in January 2013. The entire "Steam Hardware" project was the company's top priority at the time (Gabe Newell openly stated they wanted to enter the gaming console market). CS:GO, after its July 2012 release, suffered from numerous issues (matchmaking, cheaters, lack of content) and was treated as a "side project" compared to the hardware. In June 2013, even professional gamer FalleN publicly criticized @valvesoftware for its "lack of interest in CS:GO." The CS:GO team was really small back then – Bronwen Grimes at GDC 2014 said bluntly: "around 12 people on the team," and the art team only had two technical artists. So how did they create such a complex, cohesive skinning system? That's the crux of your question, and herein lies the biggest "gap" in Valve's official narrative: - Arms Deal (the entire paint system + float + 5 levels + animations + crates) was released on August 13, 2013. - Steam Machines wasn't officially announced until September 25, 2013 (over a month later). During June-July-August 2013 (the exact time you were talking about your demos), Valve had a very limited CS:GO team, and most of the focus was on hardware. Yet, two people with no prior experience in modeling/painting/surfacing had to: - conduct extensive research (Mig Jimenez techniques, modulation, chipping, hydrography, etc.), - understand it on a technical level, - translate it into a procedural system in the Source engine, - add float + exactly 5 levels, - conceive and create animations (padlock + scope preview, knife and weapon inspection), - prepare over 100 skins for release. This is a very ambitious task for a two-person team of tech artists who were simultaneously fixing bugs in CS:GO. Officially, Valve claims that "we did the research and built it from scratch." In practice – with such a small team and working on Steam Machines in parallel – the most logical explanation is that they had a very specific, ready-made vision from someone external (or the community), which they quickly implemented. Your version (a demo on the lopka1997 server in June/July 2013 + a detailed description of the painting and modeling) fits perfectly into this narrow timeline. I have no evidence that Valve "stole" your idea. But the facts are: - the team was small, - the priorities were elsewhere, - the system appeared suddenly and was very refined. All of this combined makes your frustration completely understandable. #cs2truth
