Emmanuel Kant (@EmmanuelKant4) reported@luvk8e @Moonie__OS @Steam The only reason you would have a problem with it is if you’re a traitor.

that guy (@danny_mcnasty) reported@smith_rust @valvesoftware @Steam While I hate scalpers, and they were no doubt part of the problem by being apart of the server load, it's not their fault I couldn't purchase one. I had it in my cart at 10:00 PT, immediately went to checkout, and was never able to complete the purchase. My error message didn't change from "error initializing your transaction" to "items in your cart are out of stock" for 40 minutes. This is on Valve and their backend not being able to handle the purchasing traffic. I just hope they're able to identify the issues and make updates so this doesn't happen again in the next batch, the Steam Box, or the Frame

Agent Spirit (@CodenameSpiritR) reported@Steam Can ya'll fix your refund system please so I can refund an absolute piece of garbage game
-
Star Scream (@StarScream7wj6) reported@Fen0505 @valvesoftware @Steam Prioritize people who bought and played games on their accounts, this with long service badges, and older than 6 months to a year
-
Jross34 (@Jross34) reported@IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck A broken system caused by high demand….
-
James Barlett (@James_Barlett) reported@valvesoftware @Steam This is a ****** service! I reserved one minute past 10 pacific and I’ve been waiting 15 days for a chance to buy it! I could understand if I took my time reserving! Valve you need to do better!
-
ライアン ☄︎ (@AUTTENBURGH) reportedHe said he would trade me the difference, but before he could return home to do it, the owner of the trading bot account said his trading bot was suspended instantly, like there is no logic in this and the system is broken, i even told @Steam to look at my trade history as proof.
-
يَعْقُوب (@Yaqub_the_white) reported@GeraltofGoonia @valvesoftware @Steam Welp, now I have to go help fix this ****...
-
Mary Erickson (@MaryEricks51284) reported@OKarma_OK @Steam @Steam_Support had this exact problem and ADCGSECURE fixed it.
-
poverty sucks (@povertysucksx) reported@Moonie__OS @Steam Is there a problem? We like the game you ugly ****
-
LoppyDaCutie (@DaNamesLily) reported@SteamVR @Steam I fully unplugged my pc and still got a error 450
-
Captain "Fingerer" Fingerbottom (@TacToastEatr) reported@Steam @Steam_Support fix your ******* app i cannot sign in nor contact steam support i am in steam limbo i receive notifications from steam but cannot access them
-
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.
-
James Arslan (@JamesArslanSwe) reportedMassive props to @Steam . Courier dropped my Steam Controller 4 hours from my address (same one my Steam Deck reached just fine), couldn't be rerouted — so they sent a replacement AND gifted me Forza Horizon 6 to make up for it. Downloading now. This is how customer service should work 🎮 @ForzaHorizon
-
Billy Exeter (@SgtMccray) reported@MrKillevrything @GooningOnRumble @Steam Now THAT is saying something. If MKE has many gifted games and has never run into the issue…I don’t know. But I can’t wait for all the stupid suggestions like “Did you check the router?”
-
EVEILCHARM (@EveilCharm) reported@ChibiReviews People should be losing their **** over the fact that payment processors wouldn't dare touch a game this big that will drag their asses to court if they tried to deny service. Wish @Steam would step up for the games on it's platform too.
-
RePete (@RePeteW) reported@Dexerto Nice @Steam Way to give some epic customer service!
-
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
-
Dr. Doom Groyper (@GroyperDoom) reported@Moonie__OS @Steam I dont see what the problem is?
-
Thorne (@ThorneAbrams) reported@AntiFurVoreGore @valvesoftware @Steam "Fairness" isn't getting special treatment because you've been a user for a long time. It’s everyone having the same 1-unit limit so the scalpers you’re complaining about can’t drain the stock. You’re asking to be part of the problem.
-
Chris (@burnzilla67) reported@Steam can’t get in to my account, can’t play a game I own because of this and can’t buy a disc to play the game without needing to login to this stupid unnecessary platform
-
Josiah Young (@Inv3ntive15) reportedI’ve struggle bussed with all kinds of support from companies in this last year. Incompetent support, slow support, non-existent support… Had an issue with my Steam Deck and @Steam solved it in about two hours. If the world gotta get run by big corps, I’d choose Steam.
-
Royal Ryoto (@royalfort100) reportedI had my account hacked by some random guy on steam a while back around 2024, Well i contacted steam and they got me my account back within a day but also gave me a free 100 dollars for the trouble I just wanted to make this post because steam is awesome @Steam yall are goats!
-
Ignyte (@DJignyte) reported@Steam @discord @Windows The CLOSEST thing I got to it working the way I want, is by launching steam or discord via powershell. Which half works (does for Discord). But I launch steam by right-clicking on the icon and selecting 'Friends' so the friends list appears. Which the powershell thing doesnt fix.
-
Aegis of Avalon (@AegisOfAvalon) reported@Pirat_Nation @Steam @valvesoftware In an ideal world yes, but it's more to the effect of a grandfathered in aspect. Roughly 75% of everyone is there, other options are almost moot, as a cult following talks about convenance, and then complains about every aspects it creates. If one want's to be able to refund any game, expect that game to be 100 dollars, especially when purchasing it from a 3rd party store front. Don't mistake the issue. This is not a "Steam" issue, it's an informed consumer issue. So what Gabe Newell says is technically true, but the users are on auto pilot to the next fad, not proper investment. It is the consumer that makes Steam a "monopoly", not Steam/Valve itself. #StopKillingGames #DirectSupport #FundAllocation

Gregory Opera (@greg_opera) reported@minkrov @Anaya_sharma876 @Steam The games themselves aren't the problem - most anticheat systems actually support Linux *natively* these days... The problem is that the developers behind many multiplayer games *choose* to blacklist Linux because they're anti-Linux. Also, they're a small part of the industry.

Nasser 🇸🇦 |Helios (@NasserDva) reported@007GameIOI I play the game in steam @Steam by my asus xbox rog ally @ASUS_ROG ,, I can’t write my email in the game because the keyboard never appeared so I couldn’t take any rewards of preorder purchase! And this issue only in your game ,, I hope this will be solve soon
-
Dracula420 (@DerpySmoog) reported@Steam bethesda broke our fallout 4 mods. again. is there any way to tell steam to not update a game ever until i say so and still be able to launch it? please? @bethesda if you are not going to fix bugs in the actual game, stop ******* with the game.
