    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!

    @UbisoftSupport @Steam It's your game, not their, and it's your launcher causing the problem. Nobody likes you and the reason is this kind of bullshit on top of your dogshit code

    @valvesoftware @Steam Fix your payment system. Broken system so everyone missed out on the pathetically low quantity of controllers you provided for purchase.

  • AzureCrux
    AzureCrux (@AzureCrux) reported

    @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.

    @valvesoftware @Steam Gave up on trying to buy one. Damn store was broken with nothing but errors. Guess I’ll get one in a year or so.

    @yorksoriginal @Steam Doesn't it fix itself once you close the game?

  • hide_X666
    J. Ilmari (@hide_X666) reported

    @valvesoftware @Steam Would've been nice if your servers would've let me purchase it. Got errors 30 mins straight and then it was sold out

    Pat (@TGS_Pat) reported

    @lotfgame @Steam Still waiting for you guys to fix the bugs that make this game unplayable, missing boss remembrances, uncompletable quests, missing segments of the map dont appreciate you working on a second game really and you deserve the hate your getting.

    @Sheltyb803 @PlayStation @Steam Have u try to disconnect your PC from internet for a day, then try run Steam and play games there.

  • Lucoa_Star65

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

    iDrinkBourbon (@Disco_Drew523) reported

    @IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck That happened to me too. You have spam that check out button eventually it loaded correctly and went to next step. At the end of the day it was broken. Also I noticed controller went live 3 min before 1PM EST. Maybe that’s what broke it

  • wolfybbad
    Steward (@wolfybbad) reported

    @IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck You just had to keep clicking continue. There was a bajillion users all trying to buy at the same time, no system can handle that its basically a DDoS attack lol.

  • Injuryyuy
    Hellothere (@Injuryyuy) reported

    @valvesoftware @Steam Yeah I'm not happy with Valve right now. I was there right on time. Every time I tried to push payment through the page gave a weird error. Next thing you know I check and it's sold out. They need to figure some sort of system out to fight off the bots to make it more fair.

    @UbisoftSupport @Steam Fix your garbage launcher first. Keeps logging out.

  • MikotoWolfskin
    It's Totally Mikoto Time! (@MikotoWolfskin) reported

    @valvesoftware @Steam Selling out in 36 minutes is absolutely bathetic! Where is the Que? Preorders? Why did you not stop scalping! 2 per customer didn't help! in the start 1 per customer and stop reviewer from getting one in the start. Endless transaction error. Highly disappointed!

  • Barelygaming0
    RarelyBarelyGaming (@Barelygaming0) reported

    @IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck That is a broken system. Valve knows the base, how you not ganna make enough.... Wut.

  • I_Am_Fred7
    Big Gamer (@I_Am_Fred7) reported

    @valvesoftware @Steam Costwise it's feature packed, so I don't really have an issue with the price however the plastics used look a bit cheap. Also the Puck adds another dimension of friction, the controller might work without it but it adds clutter and a point of failure to the system.

  • Jross34
    Jross34 (@Jross34) reported

    @IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck A broken system caused by high demand….

  • silbirobi

    @RealMarcFoxx Okay👍 But I have to criticize @Steam @Steam_Support I have to perform a login to play offline. That's just wrong and have to change.

    @UbisoftSupport @Steam The only problem is your trash launcher.

    @MatthewJPipoly @valvesoftware @Steam It wasn't sold out with that error. The servers were slammed. If you were smart, you would have kept hitting refresh until you got in.
