kate! ΘΔ (@SeedVEVO) reportedthis is still broken, @valvesoftware @steam please fix <3
-
Carlos Macias (@cmaciasjimenez) reported@SnazzyLabs Agree. When I unboxed mine and asked me to plug in for the first time I thought “ok setup” but a couple days later it asked me again for a fw update and that really surprised me. Xbox does it wirelessly without issue. This should be improved @Steam @OnDeck

Sam Pritchard (@sdp2012uk) reportedHey @WARDOGS I have been given the test play version on @Steam but once it’s installed I’ve tried to launch the game and it shows a login error saying I’m not authorised to use it, how can I fix this please? #Help
-
Abandoned Account 🏴 🇬🇧 (@Abandac123) reported@Dexerto While @Steam's refunding system is the gold standard for consumers, it's not without its issues. There should be additional rules on the length of gameplay. Like, if u reach 1/4 of the game or the 2 hour window. That's fair. @Steam_Support
-
xi lan (@Xao_lanVT) reported@ImCadeYT @Steam You got a better deal because the Steam Machine isn’t reliable and has a lot of problems. The Deck, on the other hand, is reliable and portable to boot.

i_smerger (@i_smerger) reportedhey @Steam fix your ****** *** custom server servers
-
Witchmaster (@Witchmaster) reported@SurvivalGN @ConanExiles @Steam The biggest issues in most survival games of its generation, are to assume PvP can carry interest long term. NEW CONTENT was provided by Modding. But they need something to work with. Gamers need experiences, encounters, mysteries. And do something with what's there. Stagnant 🤬

oNo_The_Gamer 🇵🇷🏙️🎮 (@ono_the_gamer) reported@UbisoftSupport there wouldn't be a problem if it was offered for free on @Steam. hope this helps 👍🏽
-
Xenos (Ambassador Of Indie Games) (@WrenchOfChaos) reported@plzbnicetome @Steam Yeah I did that for a long time with Nintendo and it sucked, I ended up with lots of games I ended up not liking, lots of wasted money, and steam actually let's you return games you don't like. Very weird how you want service to be WORSE. I don't EXPECT them to, they LET ME.

Young Thot Thot (@ShilohFlacko) reported@Studioaip @Steam Having the same issue
-
Utkarsh Sai Sidhardh K (@Utkarsh_sai_K) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam I’ve purchased quite a few games through Steam and have supported many Ubisoft titles over the years. Gaming is something I rarely get time for, and I usually only play when I have a longer period to properly relax. That’s why this situation has been particularly overwhelming and disappointing. I currently can’t access games I’ve paid for, and it has also made me hesitant to purchase any more Ubisoft titles until this issue is resolved. I genuinely hope someone can help me get this sorted.
-
Willem (@willemt1981) reported@GamingCentral26 The subscription isn't the issue. It's ownership and recovery. Digital libraries only work if verified owners can regain access after a compromise. @Steam has shown this is possible for years.
-
Mikodaud (@Mikodaud) reported@JagerBomba890 @ChibiReviews @Steam We migrate to the platforms that dont have this problem,you can stay and get goyslopped freely,i dont care.

Callmedragon (@callmedragon) reported@AnOutlawPatriot Yeah I do trying to get the game to work. I just restarted my computer think it’s a @Steam issue
-
Dont Askem Eh (@DontAskemeh) reportedI use to grind trophies back in the day, I will agree with the sound as it hits different & they're at least set in stone. Steam overall is better EXCEPT when they get ruined by devs adding random achievements years later. Categories for DLC would be an easy fix, js @Steam.

Paco Ace (@DamJPaco) reported@Steam Hi, I need help to modify my email address. Former email address is unavailable but I get a "error 2" everytime I put the code I received to change my email... Please help !
-
Beast of Bodmin (@WrastleFreak) reportedMy @UpholdInc card seems to not be working at more and more places since it's been renewed. Didn't work at @Steam and now not working with @DisneyPlus despite putting all the new details in. 🙄
-
🏴Obscure outpost podcast🐦 (@Obscure_Outpost) reported@ItzPuddleJumper @Steam Steam deck uses steam os which uses arch Linux as a base,Arch is a cutting edge rolling operating system so updates can break it usually they put the fix for it on archs website.

CAPS LOCK (@CAPS_LOCK_ON_X) reportedSteam Road to Vostok Observation The game freezes for 1/2 a second to a second [approximate] every time I encounter a bandit UPDATE: This problem only seems to occur when an external monitor is used @Steam @Steam_Support @roadtovostok
-
Arcamean (@Arcamean) reportedHey @Steam_Support @Steam Any chance of getting an option to IGNORE ALL UPDATES for select games? It's REALLY irritating when your favorite mods are broken because the game updated... (thanks Bethesda really wanted that :p)
