    @OnDeck @Steam I got my reservation email for my steam deck and for some reason the website won’t let me purchase it. I’ve been trying for 2 and a half days. What is going on? I’ve now missed the reservation window completely cause of a website issue

  • Florianrival Florian Rival (@Florianrival) reported

    @MarcosCodas @OnDeck @Steam I've looked at it too, but the "it's a real PC" aspect of Steam Deck is really appealing to me! In other news after a few back and forth they were able to fix a bug and I was able to validate the order 👍👍

  • WiseWolfTheBunn WiseWolf (@WiseWolfTheBunn) reported

    @ZeCyberChimp @Steam @SteamVR I had an issue like that, turned out i accidentally burned out the usb hub that was holding all my tracker dongles, they would all disconnect and only the random tracker or controller that was connected via the headset worked

    @Steam how much money do you need to make to fix Big Picture Mode?

  • Milnoc François Caron (@Milnoc) reported

    My request for a refund for the broken game "Stray" from @Steam has been rejected. I'll see if I can get @AnnapurnaStdios to do something about this. I don't feel like playing the game anymore even after it's patched. The mood has been completely ruined by this massive bug.

    @ThatBeardoAdam @NicMcC83 @Steam Imagine feeling the need to say something abhorrent so badly that you'd spend $8 and load a game up for five seconds to say it. I can't imagine just how broken that mind is

  • ZeCyberChimp CyberChimp =OωO= 🐵 Whiskateers (@ZeCyberChimp) reported

    .@Steam @SteamVR I've been recently having a serious tracking problem for VR, it would randomly unpair all of my devices and randomly reconnect one, I restart the app then It would randomly pair a different one and unpair everything else, any idea on how I can fix it????

  • 84_angry Angry 84 💾🔌 (@84_angry) reported

    @Steam @Steam_Support Fix your damn client, The last update causes it freeze randomly plus what other bugs i'm ignoring. Or do you not care at all like most other companies these days and as long as you get money? Maybe time to start purchasing games elsewhere #fucksteam

  • KirtFox The Kirt Fox💙💛 (@KirtFox) reported

    @Steam @OnDeck you need to stop using @parcelforce for your deliveries. Been in all day, whilst they say the item is out on delivery. It's now 8.20pm, no tracker update. No nothing. And looking at reviews, other people have had similar issues getting their Steam Deck with them

  • zeniwnl Zeniwnl (@zeniwnl) reported

  • Waluigussy JaqenTosh (@Waluigussy) reported

  • NinjiHurog Ninji (@NinjiHurog) reported

    I bought #Jadeempire on steam for nostalgia a while back and STILL haven't been able to make the damn game open up. The problem apparently has been around a long time and @Steam has yet to do anything about it. Waste of money. Past the two weeks for refund. Smh.
