Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • HelloMiakoda Miakoda (@HelloMiakoda) reported

    @myhometoy @LinuxHandbook @Steam And he's assumed that my computer issues are indicative of Linux as a whole, even after I explain "No, I'm a nerd. I am trying to do experimental isht! My PC is broken because I decided on a whim to try a whole other file system that's not even available on a default install"

  • OtakuG0d Your Senpai (@OtakuG0d) reported

    @EndCycleGame @Skullgirls @Steam So far everything runs smoothly. Also I figured out why I couldn't type in lobbies and it was 100% a user error on my part lol.

  • Apollo2148 guh (@Apollo2148) reported

    @YoungboyB3tt3r @Steam I like both. Is that an issue?

  • himikohellhound 🔞 Himiko hellhound vtuber🔥🐺 Debut: TBA (@himikohellhound) reported

  • chefroblake 🔪CHEF 🔥 (@chefroblake) reported

    @Steam has the worst customer service. Yet we use them to purchase our games. Blanket responses... Thanks for the sales, but invest in actual CUSTOMER SUPPORT. #Steam #SteamSupport #Robots

  • shaheen_tj Shaheen TJ (@shaheen_tj) reported

  • gsleerech Casual fan of everything (@gsleerech) reported

    @Steam I tried to login into my account after 6 months of not touching it. Couldnt login, said wrong password and when trying ro recoger it it showed that the email had been changed to a chinese one. Now i'm trying to contact support but the page gets stuck 1/2

  • ClassicSpace101 Ian Goff (@ClassicSpace101) reported

    @Steam Fix Team Fortress 2 #savetf2

  • AlyAlbion Alina ☿️ (@AlyAlbion) reported

    @xMaux85 @sterlingstiles1 @Steam I mean its pretty obvious its a scam, no one on earth can help you recover or troubleshoot any account from any services but the actual official support of the service you need help with. Those will just straight up steal your infos and run away, possibly charging you with it

  • Spyro91republic Spyro91republicdragonknight DUSRA (@Spyro91republic) reported

    @Tyler_McV @Steam Also if steam doing a fest about games hopefully they fix tf2 bot problem I am not interested other games till they fix the bot problem #savetf2

  • GrahamUnsworth 👾👾Graham Unsworth👾👾 (@GrahamUnsworth) reported

    @virginmedia Its seems fine, the problem I think wasn’t from yourselves but maybe from @Steam as I tried downloading a game from another client and it seemed to download fine.

  • Spyro91republic Spyro91republicdragonknight DUSRA (@Spyro91republic) reported

    @Crapcom2 @Tyler_McV @Steam It’s not weird it’s an absolute abuse if they don’t want to fix tf2 then they should give it to another corp to fix the bot problem. Tell me this what if your favorite game has not been fix for more then 3 years run over by bots you think that’s messed up? I do. #savetf2

  • NijlandSylven Sylven Nijland (@NijlandSylven) reported

    @someoneweirdr @YoungboyB3tt3r @Steam I agree apart from the uplay and origin part while uplay is great it almost always has server issues and origin is just bad design

  • 1mishrashantanu Shantanu Mishra (@1mishrashantanu) reported

    @shaheen_tj @Steam @Steam solve my Baba’s Account Problem ASAP on priority basis.

  • sarahwlsh508 Sarah Welsh ✝❤️ (@sarahwlsh508) reported

    Anyone else having issues with @Steam ? Mine isn’t working. I had turned on my PC this morning & it said WiFi wasn’t connected. I never turned it off. I reconnected it but when I double click on steam or any of my games it has a split second loading action & nothing happens.

  • LeciaToshi Lecia Toshi (@LeciaToshi) reported

    @Steam let me delete steam stickers. they're useless. also, I just crafted a bunch of badges and put a bunch of stuff up on auction and lost an entire page of inventory space. Please fix that.

  • alexandspaghett Alex (@alexandspaghett) reported

    @Steam can I please get customer service help? Steams customer service is terrible !

  • ClassicSpace101 Ian Goff (@ClassicSpace101) reported

    @Steam Fix Team Fortress 2. #savetf2

  • TheTrueCarrie Carrie (@TheTrueCarrie) reported

    Is my @Steam account username and password online? So many tries to login. Also you hackers should know there isn’t any money there, or any good games.

  • ZaneHannan Zan (@ZaneHannan) reported

    @d_adum @LinusTech @Steam I'd love to find out how it'll fail like if it's that they don't provide the same parts (or they track 100% of parts) it could be a problem. R2R is for two groups of people, IMO: - broken screen, want a quick workable fix from a reasonably cheap guy - using same thing for years

  • onnanoko_amai Amai Onnanoko 🇹🇷 🌎 (@onnanoko_amai) reported

    @GreenManGaming @msigaming @Steam Do you have a problem with Turkey? You say there is no code that can be activated in your country and close the ticket. How do I know which countries code you have? Providing Turkish language support on your website and not selling game codes is nothing but nonsense.

  • MiloHyson Milo Hyson (@MiloHyson) reported

    Hmmm, #HighIsle is released and suddenly @Steam is no longer telling people it doesn't work on current #macOS systems. Imagine that! I wonder how many sales they lost due to this little ... issue ...

  • medi_sheren Meredith (@medi_sheren) reported

    @TheTrueCarrie @Steam I am forever forgetting my steam login info
