    @Steam, are y'all's servers having issues? I've noticed that I'm unable to download anything because "I do not have internet connection", but the plot twist is that I do? Any update on what's going on?

    @RedSorel @RockstarSupport @Steam Since the last update apparently, I was waiting for scripthook to update and today I tried launching the game with the updated file and the game just won't open, reinstalled twice, deleted all mods, everything is updated on my PC too so I dunno what the issue is

  • 43e700795e5043e Nikolas Simpson (@43e700795e5043e) reported

    @Steam you have the absolute worst customer service of all time. No way to actually talk to someone just some stupid ******* options to pick from that have nothing to do with the problem. Fix your ****, I expect more from this computer game monopoly on PC

  • chad_pad D-Pad Chad (@chad_pad) reported

    O.K. so I install #EliteDangerous and guess what. The same issue as #NoMansSky! THIS IS NOT AN ISSUE WITH THE GAME @Steam it's your platform not properly supporting controllers! And no it's not the hardware or drivers either, since the hardware functions on other games/software!

  • Thee_Grim_One Suicide Prevention/Mental Health Month (@Thee_Grim_One) reported

    @Steam having issues or is it just me?? cant open any games and updating games fail every time?

  • Merginator exr merg (@Merginator) reported

    @B0AH1907 @RockstarSupport @Steam Also I had the same problem with you having the game crash without scripthook in the game directory got my backup RDR2 exe file and it worked fine for me

  • RileyJoh95 no (@RileyJoh95) reported

    @Steam Are servers down again????

  • chad_pad D-Pad Chad (@chad_pad) reported

    The least you can do is respond to my tech support email I had sent regarding #NoMansSky @Steam so this can be resolved! No more throwing this onto other companies this is YOUR responsibility to fix!

  • YannCouture Yann Couture (@YannCouture) reported

    @Steam YOU WILL GIVE ME SUPPORT TO RESTOR ALL GAME LOST, or i take action in justice against you. i miss 31 game on my 39 so fix that or you will be in serious trouble!

  • SparksTheMajin Momma Sparks the Majin Shapeshifter (@SparksTheMajin) reported

    Is @Steam broken for anyone else? Despite my pc being connected to a working network, despite it saying I’m ONLINE, anytime I try to download something or even verify the integrity of a game’s cache, it says I don’t have an internet connection! I know I do, I was on Google!!

  • monistowl Tom Wilson (@monistowl) reported

    @Steam so I just tried to sign up for your service for literally the first time ever, and after like twenty rounds of captchas I still can't. I don't poste hate anywhere, I don't trade crypto, I've never been a member before and then banned. What gives?

  • Zorrah_TTV Zorrah (@Zorrah_TTV) reported

    @Steam yo guys I submitted a ticket to you guys for some help a few days ago. Someone responded and asked for some info. I provided it to them and no one has gotten back to me and the issue has not been resolved. Any help?

  • DirtySab DirtySab (@DirtySab) reported

  • genienieni Genie Christine (@genienieni) reported

    @mewhensik @Steam Text @TimmHan now to fix your account immediately

  • B0AH1907 Boah (@B0AH1907) reported

    @RedSorel @RockstarSupport @Steam Seems really unecessary tbh, I haven't seen anyone with this issue and I doubt that will fix it, it was only a quick fix to get mods working with the old scripthook version

  • JeremyDantz25 Jeremy (@JeremyDantz25) reported

    @B0AH1907 @RockstarSupport @Steam or are you having fps problem i had that i fixed it delete your settting.xml rockstar support is useless i fixed on my own

  • RedSorel Red (@RedSorel) reported

    @B0AH1907 @RockstarSupport @Steam Huh I had the same problem when I updated the game before the new script hook patch came out and sense script hook wasn't compatible with the new April patch I decided to take out all my mods and the game wouldn't launch.

  • MokiSable Moki Sable (@MokiSable) reported

    @Steam So we buy the games... then you guys have your own server issues, giving us all "An error occurred while updating [game] (no internet connection)..." Apparently alot of people suddenly can't play their games because Steam's end. So you guys can just freeze our games?

  • B0AH1907 Boah (@B0AH1907) reported

    @RedSorel @RockstarSupport @Steam How did you fix it? Causs I'm at a loss here
