    @AftermathZGame Weird how @Steam has issues with this. Meanwhile they have games like Come Home on the store that has far more inappropriate material on the steam page, which is also false advertising at that is a straight up porn game. Gonna run along the beach censoring folks in swimwear now?

    @SmudgeCOD @Battlefield @Steam Same issue here 9070 xt 9800x3d..

  • MsRobotoFL Feisty Renegade 🗣🙀🙏⚓ (@MsRobotoFL) reported

    @BattlefieldComm This is why nobody trusts @EA. This stuff should have been fixed prior to release. You should offer rebates to all the players who have been waiting since 11am EST to play the game, but can't because of YOUR errors. If you bought this game on @Steam you have played without interruptions. Mostly.

  • DeffN0tAndy DeffN0tAndy (@DeffN0tAndy) reported

    Hey @EA @EAHelp I literally refunded my Steam purchase to throw wait of support behind you guys and am instantly regretting it. Can't play until off work, but if you don't resolve BF6 launch issue by 5:30PM EST, you best believe I am taking my money back to the GOAT @Steam

  • level94836 level. (@level94836) reported

    my curator is offline for now. @Steam has server issues that they refuse to fix for long time curators who run into this issue. It's been a great run, everyone.

  • _dolphinityy_ itzDolphinityy (@_dolphinityy_) reported

    Has anyone had issues, with A: you loading in a match when it's 90% done or B: you can't load in a match at all?? I bought BF6 on steam and this is my issue. #battlefield6 @Steam @Battlefield

  • WizardChristoph Wizard_Christopher_Robin (@WizardChristoph) reported

    .@valvesoftware @Steam @CounterStrike haven't played cs in a month. Play 1 game and get a 14 day cool down. Didn't even use my mic. Fix your ******* report system. Ever since I got banned for trying to kick cheaters I get consistent 14 day bans

    @Vaeroth @Battlefield @Steam I had the same issue, I was able to fix it with this, If you have the nvidia app open it, go to graphics and look for battlefield 6, click on it and go to global settings and on the driver settings click on the restore option. And then restart steam and try launching it again.

  • ReneCpt Rick 🐭 (@ReneCpt) reported

    @Steam @Steam EA app developers could use the assistance of your steam app developer right now for a second. @EA can't seem to fix their own app on Battlefield 6 launch day and they could use all the help from someone who IS able to make a functioning launcher. Thx in advance! /s
