    @COWCATGames I'm super sorry you have to experience something like that. It would be interested to know what steam plans to do about this problem in the future! @Steam @Steamworks

  • TwinFinZ TwinFinZ (@TwinFinZ) reported

    @Steam @EA @Battlefield2042 how the HELL do your support try to tell me i do not own the game when i provided POP to them FROM STEAM?! $80 for a broken game that refuses to launch 90% of the time and all your support has is "we can't see that you own it"?? FFS!

  • GeeCaron Blooey (@GeeCaron) reported

    @Steam_Support @Steam I got a message on discord saying that someone impersonated me on csgo and scammed someone and my account was apparently reported 135 times. I was then told to add a steam moderator on discord to resolve the issue. I added them and they told me to send them

  • Crystona1231 Crystona123 (@Crystona1231) reported

  • senseipatek bruhuh (@senseipatek) reported

    @Steam fix your platform you trashcans (no offense)

  • jamieagatharose @jamieagatharose (@jamieagatharose) reported

    @cindershad0w @BigfryTV @Steam I'm not surprised. Steam hides behind this "Not our problem, take it up with the publisher." approach to pretty much everything.

  • SkySpiderGirl Sky Spider Girl (@SkySpiderGirl) reported

    @Steam Game is broken, crashes after cutscene

  • TwinFinZ TwinFinZ (@TwinFinZ) reported

    @steam @EA I do love that both of your supports just point fingers yet nobody wanna fix the ******* issue. Still can't get the refund to purchase the game I ALREADY ******* OWN! nor has any of your "staff" given any productive response other than "yea its on them talk to them" !

  • HostUtil DEFI 👀 (@HostUtil) reported

    Hey @Steam WTF is all this mess with Guard and Authenticator. Even if I have it all active I need to wait for 15 days and the error message just says: Problems with your cookies. 🙄

  • safanite kata (@safanite) reported

    @Steam Bro, how long does it take to to fcking unban someone on steam cuz of your ****** system mistakes. Fix up fam, billion dollar company btw

  • Andwpo Andrei (@Andwpo) reported

    @Steam @Steam_Support i have trouble with an account ! How do i get in touch with somene to aid me into my trouble ?

  • BeatMystica Beat! (@BeatMystica) reported

    @AntonioDonghia4 @Steam @Steam_Support you aren't banned this is a global issue they are slow at fixing things so idk

  • Haganu_Asterion ⛩ Haganu_Asterion ⛩ (@Haganu_Asterion) reported

    @Steam @EpicGames an update to the store refund policy would be nice. Mainly to prevent PC gamers to be robbed of 60-80$ and being spoonfed broken games like #SaintsRow and #Cyberpunk2077 on launch. Be there for the gamers, not the shareholders of publishing companies.

  • MoazAyoubi Moaz Ayoubi (@MoazAyoubi) reported

    @Steam Hey, since the may 13th steam update black ops 3 just broke.Decreased performance, stuttering in the menu i did my research and i suppose its a problem with dlc checking stuff thats why if you launch steam in offline mode and then launch the game there is no problems at

  • KcRob79 KC_ROB79 (@KcRob79) reported

    @Steam I'm not getting any email to get my login info

  • fuchsbauinfo ALLCAPSNOSPACES (@fuchsbauinfo) reported

    @CaseyExplosion Let's hope this all creates enough publicity and eyeballs that someone at @Steam takes notice. Having a game review bombed just leads to less sales so less $$$,so it should be in their interest to fix this problem.

  • QuillSat Quill (@QuillSat) reported

    @Atlus_West Your Bonus Demon Pack DLC is seemingly broken on @Steam and will not let people purchase it. everytime I add it to my cart nothing shows up, but everything else works fine.

  • The_Forceee Hamid (@The_Forceee) reported

    @2K @Steam Please change your engine for next mafia...your engine It has loading problems and a lot of bugs

  • TwinFinZ TwinFinZ (@TwinFinZ) reported

    @Steam your customer support is fanominal, when they do respond they just refer to the "reciept" on my steam acc WHICH I ALREADY GAVE THEM (@EA ) now 24hr later no response. Fix your **** bro. You take millions from people and can't give any worth wile support? Tf bro?

  • beavers4eva tuna mayo (@beavers4eva) reported

    @Steam you've broke auth sign in : every 5 minutes it wants a code and then 5 seconds after getting code it says it's invalid because I waited too long

  • BendoverNick Open Up (@BendoverNick) reported

    @Steam Just wondering how is legal to sell Fo3 when it just flat out doesn't work upon purchase... if someone has to alter game files and install another launcher to even attempt to fix it then I think its severely broken and should be finally fixed yeah?

  • TwinFinZ TwinFinZ (@TwinFinZ) reported

    @steam @EA when do I get support for the game I pre-ordered got broken alpha release and now "do not own"? Eta? Days, weeks, months? When does this issue get fixed?

  • ZetaSole Sole Zeta (@ZetaSole) reported

    @Steam, my account is blocked from buying because Mastercard rejected a 0,13 ARS transaction - less than a penny. I'm offering you A WHOLE PENNY to solve this issue. I don't mind paying more than what I really owe you, I'm not afraid of being the bigger person.

  • 1stAverageBacon AverageBacon:) (@1stAverageBacon) reported

    @Steam ... Your Re-Captcha Is Broken I try to make an account but it doesnt work What kind of robot would make a steam account???

  • S2IsThrill 으엉🦊 (@S2IsThrill) reported

    @Steam Sir. I am a human. and I am sick of your application saying I am not human and I'm a robot. I am very much alive and I have deleted the cookies and It still doesn't work. Now I have to re-login to all of my accounts and I just just ughhhh

  • SORAA_0402 SORAA (@SORAA_0402) reported

    @Steam Pls can u tell me why i can't create another account pls ? after i deleted my first one; i tried to create a new account for like 3 hours but ur captcha is sooooooo lagged btw im not the only one who got the same problem

  • BeatMystica Beat! (@BeatMystica) reported

    @viacheddar @Steam use your phone, this seems to be an issue for everyone. Using your phone bypasses this issue it seams

  • PatrickKul Patrick Kulikowski (@PatrickKul) reported

    @BadTakeEnjoyer @Steam I had a hard time getting the game to not crash past the initial loading screen and unskippable opening. Ended up getting it on PS4 instead. Your mileage may vary!

  • WratekPL Wratek (@WratekPL) reported

    @Mario6493 @Steam It works, but it's very complicated. On startup game wants to take picture of your face for your driving licence. Deactivate your camera drivers and event virtual cameras like OBS Virtual Camera to make game playable. If you still have some issues turn on offline mode in origin.

  • harkl_ #harkl (@harkl_) reported

    @udiWertheimer @Steam The question then becomes, what problem would you be solving by putting VR on the os?
