    @Sheltyb803 @PlayStation @Steam Apparently it’s not what we thought. PS4 hackers were stealing games. This was a response to that. Buy a game for the duration of the return period it’s a temporary license. After that login and get a new one that’s traditional.

    @Steam @Steam_Support I’ve been trying to checkout the steam controller since it went live keep getting an error and now it’s sold out? I should’ve been able to purchase at 10am pct when I put it in my cart

    @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.

    @TankeryChan @valvesoftware @Steam Just FYI, Amazon pulled out of SA temporarily because of how much theft there was in the postal service. It came back after establishing a private shipping network, and clearly is happy with the risk level because Amazon is building a local warehouse here now.

    @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

  • HiddenTenno
    LTLuh (@HiddenTenno) reported

    @UbisoftSupport @Steam Fix your launcher, it sucks, or better, let us open the games directly from steam without having to see that mess you call launcher

  • Lucoa_Star65
    Lucoa's Husbano (@Lucoa_Star65) reported

    @UbisoftSupport @Steam Here's an easy solution: Delete your ****** DRM Launcher from existence. That will solve the problem.

  • 135dotx

    @Pirat_Nation Don't care. Microslop had years➕ to fix @Windows & are only doing it now bc losing ppl to Linux & @Steam. These companies will never learn – I hope gamers finally do. Money is voting power & I haven't spent any since "Xbox One (won)".

  • DaveTheRetroGuy
    Avalice Productions (@DaveTheRetroGuy) reported

    @UbisoftSupport @Steam This wouldn't be a problem if your launcher actually worked 🙄

  • KnightVision12
    KV12 (@KnightVision12) reported

    @IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck “That’s not demand, that’s a broken purchase system.” ok clanker

  • PowPowPony
    GoodStuffPuff (@PowPowPony) reported

    @UbisoftSupport @Steam Just make it so your games can be played directly through steam and these problems would cease to exist for people, your launcher IS the problem

  • Nuqle0us
    Dragon 369 (@Nuqle0us) reported

    @valvesoftware @Steam Fix Your Anticheat on cs2 every game is 1 or 3 cheaters AAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!

  • RGB_MIDAS
    hombo (@RGB_MIDAS) reported

    @UbisoftSupport @Steam Actually the issue usually lies within your launcher and not Steam's. There is absolutely no reason why I need to enter my password every time for *some* games but it works fine for others. There has never been a single day where uPlay/Ubisoft Connect has been good.

  • 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.

  • logincrash
    Colin Archer (@logincrash) reported

    @itsmeepui @UbisoftSupport @Steam I've looked for a solution to this problem and all I got is a bunch of people saying **** like "Just don't log out." or "Write down your password." Like, *****, the Remember Me tick is there AND IT DOESN'T ******* WORK. It's not on me to fix this. Your launcher ******* SUCKS!

  • erasmus_magnus

    @valvesoftware @Steam Hope it works in browser games, my Steam Deck had weird binding issues with that.

  • CodenameSpiritR

    @Steam Can ya'll fix your refund system please so I can refund an absolute piece of garbage game

  • MydiaStardream

    @valvesoftware @Steam Scalpers took all the stock. Please fix.

    @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

  • FiggleJizz
    Figgle **** (@FiggleJizz) reported

    @UbisoftSupport @Steam Steam isn't the problem lmao.

  • olafkswg
    olafkswg - Buying Skins 95% (@olafkswg) reported

    Is this a planned change with no announcement or a bug? Broken trade history suggests the other, @Steam support can't answer this question.

  • mortifera142

    @valvesoftware @Steam Your payment processing is tossing our errors.

  • _the__Goat_
    The Goat (@_the__Goat_) reported

    @benheck @Steam You're not wrong. Yes, I'm fully aware of why Linux hasn't taken over. A major "problem" is bombarding potential users with too many choices (distro, partition scheme, filesystem, etc., etc., etc.) before they even get a login prompt.

  • DESIREUwU21
    Cameron (@DESIREUwU21) reported

    @lotfgame @Steam I have an issue where the host dies in a co op and it crashes their game and they have to reset every time

  • torelethain
    Torelethain (@torelethain) reported

    @KlassischeMann @valvesoftware @Steam **** off ****, there is plenty of reason for criticism, scalpers are an issue they had figured out and solve on the Deck launch, this was failed roll out. If it genuinely was sold we would be more understanding and happy for Valve. This was a mistep **** sucking fanboi.
