  • FaisalH10480499 Faisal Hussain Shah (@FaisalH10480499) reported

  • Subhankar_30 Subhankar (@Subhankar_30) reported

    @GoGalaGames @SuperiorTheGame @Steam Hunters is not working 😕 Day by Day Price is down 🤨👎 Need to think other better option.....

  • TimmyEckhardt Timmy E. (@TimmyEckhardt) reported

    Downloaded WZ2 on @Steam because @battlenet is broken #Battlenet

  • Gifted_Lion Gifted Lion (@Gifted_Lion) reported

    Buyers beware, if your planning on buying Call of Duty on @Steam the game is broken and won't run, and they won't issue you a refund either if you go above the 2 hour time limit. Game takes almost 3 hours to patch and that reflects on the play time.

  • KingWillex The Official King Willex (@KingWillex) reported

    @Steam @SteamVR @valvesoftware That's it... last straw... I'm done advocating for you.... Get ready for the PR issue's of a life time... Have fun!

  • AustinKizz3 Austin kizz (@AustinKizz3) reported

    @Steam good day, please I'm having a problem with my steam card that I purchased at the store. The steam card is say invalid code

  • ElvinThinks ER (@ElvinThinks) reported

    Update: @Steam @Activision @InfinityWard has yet to fix the constant crashing. 👏🏼 #MW2

  • spidermang84 Anthony Candelaria (@spidermang84) reported

    @Steam Yeah i went from 33 files, but could still play. To 38 files and a HILLCAT error code and can't play, after the update. The error code is the game but the 38 files is a new one in steam

  • joltgaming9 Jolt clika (@joltgaming9) reported

    @BlizzardCS you guys are so trash for this smh all this money and can’t fix anything fast smh @Steam and @EpicGames you guys are the best!

  • KillasPetOtter KillasPetOtter (@KillasPetOtter) reported

    @Steam can you please fix the verified game files issue so it’s not impossible to play games through your platform? Not worth buying games from you if they don’t work. Thank you

  • BeeMarieFractal Bee Marie (@BeeMarieFractal) reported

    Halp @Steam the update today broke Don't Starve Together, mods broken for most players and game crashes.

  • agamingmoment A GAMING MOMENT (@agamingmoment) reported

    If you having trouble downloading Warzone 2, @Steam Wins the MW2 Warzone 2 Download contest, Right now I'm downloading at about 100KB/s on blizzard, and 22 MB/s on steam, thanks to steam I will get to play before bed tonight. @Blizzard_Ent @CallofDuty #Warzone2 #gamer #podcast

  • realworld666 Dave Conley (@realworld666) reported

    @kaikideishuu17 @Steam I think trash is unfair. Its a decent game with several flaws. The devs communication has been very poor and there are still some big issues that need patching but it's still playable. Definitely released to meet a deadline. Another year or two there could be a great game here.

  • Resoluxion Resoluxion (@Resoluxion) reported

    @Froundlol @JayReid902 @Steam So its not MY governments issue like you stated, it's the government of the country Activision resides in? Which is it? You told me it's about where I am located, now you're saying it's about where Activision is located? All I am hearing is excuses.

  • JayyTheMisfit Jayy The Misfit (@JayyTheMisfit) reported

    @oSmackyTheFrogo @battlenet @Steam nah dude, Steam is having it's issues too, I haven't been able to play due to it crashing on start up. It's been happening to a lot of people too. I've verified my files, updated my drivers, restarted my PC, nothing has worked.

  • Loulou__sensei 𒉭KC Laugst𒉭 (@Loulou__sensei) reported

    @Steam_Support @Steam hello, i am currently having a big problem with my steam account. Indeed, I had my email address and my Steam account hacked. I already have an account recovery request except that the person had access to my email addresse unfortunately.

  • Clan_Volkn_Qrik Qrik 🐀 (@Clan_Volkn_Qrik) reported

    Hey @Steam! You did patch, then you did patch to fix patch... Now Qrik's Steam is blank screen! Can't even select games from Library!

  • eslamexamble DMX musiq (@eslamexamble) reported

    @Abdulmo63207834 @Steam Go inbox @COLLINX_TECH here or on Instagram My account also got banned and support service aren’t doing anything about it, he successfully unban my account

  • arttuuskali Arttu Uskali (@arttuuskali) reported

    I bought @OnDeck almost 1.5 months ago and received a broken Steam Deck. I sent it back for warranty maintenance and haven't had any actual update since October. Not so nice @Steam experience...

  • BilltheBodyGuy Body Guy Bill (@BilltheBodyGuy) reported

    When talking to @Steam support about an issue I was having connecting my Steam Deck Dock to the TV in desktop mode the answer I ended up getting was "Try a different dock". I don't have another dock. I bought your $90 one to avoid problems like this!

  • walkrunbike360 WalkRunBike360 (@walkrunbike360) reported

    Another 9+ hours of @Steam play and inventory lost after @RedbeetOfficial @RaftSurvivaGame crashed so another evening of calming an upset offspring. Any advise on issues of progress and inventory wipe previous saves are loading in with everything wiped too.

  • spidermang84 Anthony Candelaria (@spidermang84) reported

    @Steam What's the issue with the "38 files failed to verify"

  • kaikideishuu17 Kaiki Deishuu (@kaikideishuu17) reported

    @Steam Don't buy this game even if it's at 90% discount. Trash game, devs don't fix major bugs, one dev even said that one major bug will continue to exist, but they will try to fix that for their NEXT GAME (f1 manager 2023)

  • ninabean8 ninabean (@ninabean8) reported

    Is anyone else having issues trying to log into @Steam ? I put in all the right information but it still tells me everything is wrong.

  • csgoSweetie Sweetie (@csgoSweetie) reported
