-
twizz (@Twizz24seven) reported@valvesoftware @Steam fix cs2 u stupid *****
-
𝐑𝐀𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐓𝐑𝐀 (@Ramattra___) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam Remove the mandatory Ubisoft Connect login for games bought on Steam and things would already be so much better. Even better, just get rid of Ubisoft Connect entirely.
-
ComicBorgs🦾🤖🤳 (@ComicBorgs) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam That **** never happens. If there's an issue with your game not launching it's probably the game not being compatible with your setup as in the OS/Hardware/Drivers or you moded **** of the game files. Your stupid launcher on even a super computer lags like ****.
-
Vlad Oreshkov (@minkrov) reported@greg_opera @Anaya_sharma876 @Steam Yeah, but some very popular multiplayer games I've heard are not compatible with Linux, so I was suggesting that AI could solve that problem yk?
-
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
-
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 :)
-
Glorious Kev (@GloriousKev) reported@itsunforgiven @valvesoftware @Steam couldn't get one? skill issue
-
Frank🇺🇸 (@C50_FC) reported@fr33thytweaks @Steam If the problem is the hardware, a firmware update isn’t gonna change anything lol
-
Conker T. Squirrel (@Conker64_) reportedAll the piracy issue could've been solved if only you publish games on the @Steam platform. It's really not that hard, you'll gain a lot of loyal supporters if you switch to publishing more games on Steam. @valvesoftware solved this piracy issue before when no corporation did it.
-
Joseph Avery (@M00nlitCr0w) reported@Sheltyb803 @PlayStation @Steam Apparently it’s not what we thought. PS4 hackers were stealing games. This was a response to that. Buy a game for the duration of the return period it’s a temporary license. After that login and get a new one that’s traditional.
-
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.
-
Dalanar (@DalanarTV) reported@valvesoftware @Steam I'll just be happy if it doesn't crash or freeze when I try to make my reservation
-
justinseans (@justinseans) reported@IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck "That’s not demand, that’s a broken purchase system." Shut up Grok
-
Yorks (@yorksoriginal) reported@SleepingFumo @Steam Glad someone understands the pain. It's gotten way worse lately too; always had issues but would maybe get 2x the actual playtime logged, annoying, but not the end of the world, but now I'm two hours into Higurashi and somehow already have over 200 hours logged!!!
-
Chris Thompson (@TehadmireChris) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Tried to buy, checkout was broken, now sold out 😭
-
LTLuh (@HiddenTenno) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam Fix your launcher, it sucks, or better, let us open the games directly from steam without having to see that mess you call launcher
-
ComicalRock (@comicalrock) reported@The_FrostySinZ @UbisoftSupport @Steam As they say, piracy is a service issue, in this new age of lack of real ownership, bad launchers, bad products, DRM ruining performance and etc., it is no wonder piracy is on the rise again. I don't do it myself, but I get it, they need to earn our money and trust again.
-
$!|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.
-
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.
-
HellowJack (@BiohazardHawk) reported@valvesoftware @Steam will it be a revisioned model soon? usually the first batch has some problems
-
Avalice Productions (@DaveTheRetroGuy) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam This wouldn't be a problem if your launcher actually worked 🙄
-
Nick Lopez (@mortifera142) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Your payment processing is tossing our errors.
-
Adam Mckeithan (@Adammck) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Gave up on trying to buy one. Damn store was broken with nothing but errors. Guess I’ll get one in a year or so.
-
DEVIOUS///DEVO (@FancyMeatCPU) reported@SubmarineTower @Steam I got the same error too.
-
Eldritch Boggart (@EldritchBoggart) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Fix your payment system. Broken system so everyone missed out on the pathetically low quantity of controllers you provided for purchase.
-
Jross34 (@Jross34) reported@IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck A broken system caused by high demand….
-
Vista Larga Games | ᯅ (@VistaLargaGames) reported@GiveMeBanHammer @Steam needs to fix this
-
PaTryk_Gracz0l (@patrykgracz0l) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam funny that isnt a problem with any other non ubisoft game, detele the ******* launcher requriement
-
N.E.H.-Windzen (@NEHWind) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Valve, are you shitting me right now? Yes, I've attempted a lot of the same purchase, you just refuse to process any of them. Now I'm locked out for who knows how long, on top of your server problems? Drop the ball harder, I'd love to see what that looks like.

Kyvlash (@Kyvlash) reported@valvesoftware @Steam I’m fine with a reservation system. But this is honestly ridiculous. This is a controller, not a Console. There is no Pandemic. This is normal Supply/Demand. And limiting customers to one reservation is a little silly imo. The demand for the Steam Controller exists, but it’s not going to rival its Console competitors. The outrage is mostly due to the payment system failures rather than people raging out about a non-existent scalper problem.
