    @valvesoftware @Steam This controller is great for what it is, but the biggest problem it'll have is when the Steam Machine comes out & have to plug in a mic directly into the Steam Machine to talk since there's no headset jack. I might be dumb but this might make couch play harder for casual players.

    @lichqueenie @UbisoftSupport @Steam I tried to play Far Cry 3 but it kept crashing constantly. Ubisoft launcher was the issue and best way to fix it was pirating it because it avoids ubi launcher lol

    @JoeReeves40 @lotfgame @Steam It’s random. It’s like a memory leak. The more I play the laggier it gets then eventually crashes. Every time is within an hour an a half to 2 hours. I’ve submitted my crash every time on ps5 if that helps. I’m on ps5 pro and I clean my consoles monthly

    @valvesoftware @Steam Already know this will instantly sell out or the site will crash despite people saying it cost too much.

    @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 :)

    @ukraine_world In @Steam , although Lvivska oblast is written correctly, but the city Lvov instead of Lviv. And when they comment, they are silent, but other users say that steam simply connected some international bases and they have a problem, because it is wrong there. @Steam_Support

    @Sheltyb803 @PlayStation @Steam You don't own any game bought digitally in Sony or Steam. You only own the license to play it thrugh Sony/Steam. They can close the service when they want. It is all in the TOS.

    @UbisoftSupport @Steam The only problem is your trash launcher.

    @cooliocool7997 @valvesoftware @Steam Yeah it's really pricey for us. However I do prefer this at that pricepoint than my current xbox one controlller that got a tons of issues (one been they sometike forget they are linked to my pc, or refuse to close down while holding down the xbox logo buttons

    Today was my last Elder Scrolls Oblivion Remaster live stream. I did a /reload command to potentially fix a graphic issue and it permanently disabled my achievements on Steam. @bethesda @Steam #oblivion #steam #twitch

    @Steam Dear Steam Support, I have been trying to resolve an issue with my account for over a month now. Despite contacting your online support multiple times, I keep receiving a message that my account is tied to a sanctioned country.

  • Fredinator85
    Fredinator (@Fredinator85) reported

    @UbisoftSupport @Steam This is bullshit and you know it. It is your broken launcher failing. Get rid of uplay. Nobody uses it anyway unless they are forced to

  • Scare_29_Crow
    ScareCrow (@Scare_29_Crow) reported

    @Sheltyb803 @PlayStation @Steam It was mis-reported. Everyone gets a 30 day offline license, which converts to a permanent license after you login on the 15th day or later after purchase. All is good.

  • datsharkstrix
    Strix (@datsharkstrix) reported

    @ArmaPlatform @Steam its a waste of money for the console players as devs wasted nearly 8 months doing nothing to fix the game

    Evan Desjardins (@evandesjardins) reported

    @PlayStation support is pathetic and a scam. I can't wait for the @Steam Machine to come out, as I've had nothing but excellent customer service from @Steam_Support in the very few times I've needed it.

  • Den0mSKP1
    Smuuth_Operator (@Den0mSKP1) reported

    @valvesoftware @Steam Dear @valvesoftware . We stopped playing cs until you fix our issues with the bots. Nowadays, you can't play it anymore. We all know you make billions from bots but still if you made the game only for this and not pure passion, why should we play it?

    Imagine harassing me 4 hours just sending me invites after invites like begging you wanna play with me, doing 3 different accounts on twitch, getting banned 3 times, changing your Steam name almost 5 times and THEN sending me this unban request?! @Steam your blocking system is not working btw.

  • EternalCMO
    Chad Oliver ☮️ 🖖 (@EternalCMO) reported

    @Sheltyb803 @PlayStation @Steam Most digital storefronts,including Steam, require a login to verify game licenses; it varies how often. That timer on newly purchased PSN games is to fix a loophole where customers were receiving refunds, but still had access. It'll go away once the 30-day refund window closes.

    @Sheltyb803 @PlayStation @Steam I fully intended to get GTA 6 ok PS but with this I’d rather wait until it come out on PC. Not even a PS issue but the inconvenience and mental load of having to open my PS If I’m playing on PC, it’s not much, just more effort than I’m willing to give.
