    @valvesoftware @Steam Brazilian players want to buy Valve hardware officially, at a fair price, with proper support. We are not asking for magic. Just a legitimate way to buy the product without gambling with bureaucracy and warranty issues.

    @IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck It’s not broken, you just had to keep clicking. Worked for me on the 10th try. They were basically being ddosed so this is to be expected

    @Dexerto Nice @Steam Way to give some epic customer service!

    Massive props to @Steam . Courier dropped my Steam Controller 4 hours from my address (same one my Steam Deck reached just fine), couldn't be rerouted — so they sent a replacement AND gifted me Forza Horizon 6 to make up for it. Downloading now. This is how customer service should work 🎮 @ForzaHorizon

    @valvesoftware @Steam I'll just be happy if it doesn't crash or freeze when I try to make my reservation

    @IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck Lmao.. It had that error due to server overload.. FROM DEMAND.. You should've clicked more bud.

    @Steam please help, this is terrible. Your login recovery is trash, I'm locked out for very stupid reasons. Then I started a new account to work around, and I was immediately locked out on the new account.

    @GooningOnRumble @Steam Wtf? I don't believe that I have ever had this issue.

    @valvesoftware @Steam Fix your system, given that everyone was getting a transaction error, this has to be one of the biggest console hardware launch debacles in the last decade. Guess people who wanted one are out of luck because you can't handle payment transactions properly during a blitz.

  • excitedpixels
    Jeremy Wood (@excitedpixels) reported

    @Steam @Steam_Support do you have a random shipment generator for orders as it seems you are shipping the steam controllers randomly. I ordered at 57 just before, and my wife's at 18 past because you were broken for her. It's Def not in any kind of order which seems unfair. :(

    @WeArePlayground go **** yourselfs useless ***** @Steam **** ***** aswell had major problems trying get on fh6 now fixed it all and new problem stuck loading then error message tryed everything **** you I want a refund now !!

    @IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck Payment processors have rate limits, chief. Too many people wanted controllers at once. Every platform exclusive has this problem, it's frustrating as heck.

    @greg_opera @Anaya_sharma876 @Steam Yeah, but some very popular multiplayer games I've heard are not compatible with Linux, so I was suggesting that AI could solve that problem yk?

  • FireFlyTroy
    Echoes of Troy (@FireFlyTroy) reported

    What is with @Steam support and never looking at tickets & just a generic replies? 3rd ticket, same issue, same replies!! Arghhhhhhh

    Michael (@MikeTriceratops) reported

    @HyperLovingBun @valvesoftware @Steam The controller isn't effected by RAM price increases, so that shouldn't be an issue...

    Who sends such blasphemous drivel on such a stout and honorable platform as X platinum? Wait, is this X platinum? Doxxing the nefarious Indian engineers at every attempt to scam me of a $40 @Steam gift card. Timeless wavelength. But can he sustain it through the market rush for @arcimoto stock this morning. Magic Eight-Ball: Sources say it's a possibility. Coffeepot check? coffee pot is locked in. Is @tomhanks tired, tied, awake, asleep? Does Jennifer Aniston not know that our "relationship" is strictly public. I have had women injure me; I'm sure Rikki will write to me in less than 90 minutes. I will slap some restaurant-quality cologne and take forkfuls of my slovenly self down to her office By 3pm we'll probably have cancer half cured. And then you'll all be like, "no, really, how in ******** did he just vanish in the night DESPITE ALL THOSE NIFTY SATELLITES that you *think* can track me. One day you will understand why every time you try to think of the next step you fail. One person makes their first jump. You don't usually live. Time goes so very fast. And? Well, then Twitter is STILL BROKEN. Or.... This: Becomes yet another curious description of the way people approach me...or someone is afraid of me. And to that I say sad again, but I still will not quit.

    @Blaziken1500 @Steam This has only happened to a small amount of controllers as they said, i can't tell how many controllers are affected by this, but as to what i looks like(for me) its a issue from GLS and not even Steam. My Steam Deck Oled had arrived in 3-4 days back when it released.

    @Moonie__OS @Steam It’s a game that teaches about history. I don’t see the problem.

    @Moonie__OS @Steam What's the problem? Thre's plenty of games where you can shoot all sorts of people. Do you think that black people need to be shielded from fictional depicted violence in videogames?

    @Smthingedgy I've never once had a problem with @Steam . From refunds to technical problems whatever and do you know what other company I can say that about these days? NONE, the ******* answer is NONE! Gabe fulfilled the social contract. He gave us what we need and want, he gets a yacht.
