Steam Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Unsacred (@Unsacredx77) reported@CrimsonDesert_ @Steam So I'm not sure but maybe the developers can look into what's causing the issue with the lighting and scaling. Running a 5070 RTX 32 GB of RAM and still having issues with running the game in DLSS and DLAA on Max settings above cinematic if possible. The lighting and scaling look blotchy and pixelated but this is something that didn't happen when the game had come out. The only way that I can get the game to look good is to disable all upscaling which includes the two that I've mentioned above.

Jiro Hiso (@Jir000_) reported@OverwatchNaeri @Steam Most of poeple are using steam for overwatch because they have battle net lancher issues, I'm one of them and the support team is even worse they can't solve a single problem
-
no one (@dimipossum) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Dont make games under 2 hours, if you cant its not my Problem. I refund
-
Caribouwu (@karibuwu) reported@BryceGuilbert @Zoroarts @Steam For me the test is for those who can only think with dichotomies and blame "If we changed things to accommodate you it might get worse in general so you should stop being so selfish. Go suffer in silence." No compromise? This problem isn't unique and complex
-
Kryyative (@KryyssX) reported@Zoroarts @Steam This to me says that it isn't a problem with the refund policy, but rather a price-tag that is perceived as too high for value of the product. The game is $4 for a little over an hour of entertainment. There'd be fewer refunds if it were $1 or less.

Aegis of Avalon (@AegisOfAvalon) reported@ZeusArcade @GOGcom @Steam While GOG offers better offline/no-DRM tools, glorifying 3rd-party distributors like them still funnels 30% of the revenue away from 1st-party IP owners. GOG sells first-party games on their storefront and takes a 30% cut. So even when users get improved ownership features, that money isn’t going to the creators or the buyers, it’s going to a third-party distributor. That’s the fundamental issue, and keeping this economic strain in perpetuation only makes everything worse.

Blue 💻 (@BwuUnhinged) reported@jaydon8D @Zoroarts @Steam That’s like going to the movies, enjoying the movie so much and then going back to concessions to ask for a refund, it doesn’t really make sense Imagine you asked for that refund and they gave it to you, it’s not a director skill issue it’s just a messed up system atp
-
MarquessOfGoyim (@GooberTheGreat8) reported@Zoroarts @Steam If you’re crying about a refund policy then you are the issue.
-
Marokano (@Marokano8888) reported@Zoroarts @Steam That's not a Steam issue, people are just pieces of ****, also you could make game a little longer.
-
Kanikou Estellia 🎀❤️🔥 (@KanikouEstellia) reported@Zoroarts @Steam I have sympathy, it's kind of hard to fix in a way because some games you legitimately do fight with trying to get to fix which can take time so they would have to track what are those scenarios and people "speedrun > refund", which I don't know if they can through achievements.
-
Hollowness (@ToRecallE) reported@Zoroarts @Steam I feel you. But to stop this, could mean allow game de set there own timer for refund base on game lenght, which allow game dev to abuse it. 😬 Very tricky thing to fix.
-
Darrell williams (@2000_pip) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Never refunded a game ever but I would like to think I could if I had a real problem with the game I think there police is perfect the way it is there going to all ways be ppl that exploit it but the reverse is the company use it to exploit the consumer a middle is what we have

SlopSlopSlopSlop (@SlopSlopSlop_) reported@Zoroarts @Steam If Steam did something about it, those same people would simply pirate, it wouldn't solve the issue
-
Panzerkirby (@PanzerKirby) reported@Indulgence82 @Zoroarts @Steam "skill issue" replies the retard that think the policy is worth something. Just Say You are a pos and go on
