    @harrisuryana @Steam @Ubisoft -keep the warp installed and activate it when you get logged out from the ubishit launcher. it happenes because *i think* a lot of us use shared ip from our isp, and it flaggs those ip as an an attack. therefore these issues. hope this helps. let me know if theres any issues.😎👍

    @Steam What are you doing??? You allow soo many early access that many games become just scams! What is with this release a game and fix it later, the game industry is a disgrace!

    @HayyanCodes @EpicGames @Steam Can you make purchases in Syria on Steam? Are any international digital stores in Syria restored? We have unblocked access since the sanctions were lifted, but haven’t found a payment service provider that offers service directly for Syria.

    E/O (@2Truthsbothlies) reported

    @IntroSpecktive My assumption is by then they will have broken @Steam by then and it’ll all come crashing down

    The Older Gamer Guy (@TheOldrGamerGuy) reported

    @Steam @Steam_Support This issue was resolved after we connected to a stable internet connection. Only then did our decks open as normal. Did they have to download something extra? Times differed.

    @Moonie__OS @Steam What exactly is the problem?

    i started gaming again on linux with steam after > 5 years and i am blown! put solid 6 hrs in without a crash. last time i tried, even cs go crashed every 10 mins. truly the year of linux desktop! thanks @Steam for making it sl much better and maintaining it 🥳🥳

  • King18Anime
    AnimeKing18 (@King18Anime) reported

    Found an issues with Steam VR when ether trying to load Steam VR or trying to load a VR Game. @Steam and/or @SteamVR would crash. I thougt it was my dying Hard Drive (because sometimes it causes issues) but no, the solution was to unplug my PS5 controller. IDK if its a issue in Steam or Steam VR given I haven't left my PS5 controller plugged in in a while. Also I'm using Linux (CachyOS) and the headset I'm using is the Quest 3 (sadly) @valvesoftware #Linux #VR #Gaming

    @upgradepcfr @Steam Had same issue @KarenVault resolved it quickly.

  • The_TruthHertz_
    TheTruthHertz (@The_TruthHertz_) reported

    @Steam still waiting for a response from your actual human customer service agents. I requested a refund for a game with 0hr played that's outside the 2-week window because of my hospitlization following cancer treatment and sepsis. You've automatically rejected it twice.

  • myXCuriosity
    myXCuriosity (@myXCuriosity) reported

    @Pirat_Nation piracy IS proof that demand exists and that the product or service isn't being sold or priced in a way that the customer thinks is worth the effort to pay. piracy is a service issue. a distribution issue. a sales issue. go ask Gabe at @Steam . he's the expert on this.

    @ThisOldGuy3 @Steam Wish I could fix it

  • exceedorbit

    @WeezSays @Steam Boot up Way of the Samurai 4 before the refund period ends. The PC port is very broken and some rigs will never be able to start the game no matter what you do.

    @ArcadiaFallen @Steam, could y'all fix this?

  • HayyanCodes
    Hayyan (@HayyanCodes) reported

    @TimSweeneyEpic @EpicGames @Steam Yes, we can buy games on Steam using Visa and Mastercard. Also, providers like nsave now fully support Syria. But on Epic, we can't even claim free games. we can browse the store fine, but the actual checkout/claim process just errors out every time.

    @heynavtoor why not talk to gaben and valve about making this part of the steam service? i think valve might like this idea. @Steam

  • BrokenSerenity
    Calli Tahmo (@BrokenSerenity) reported

    @ToanChan_ @Steam yeah ive had this problem for awhile now, and they literally dont give a damn when you ask them why, just spout the usual nonsense about always looking for new ways to make things easier to do then not actually using any of the better methods to age verify...like you account age.

    @Moonie__OS @Steam What's the issue?

    Odd Job for President (@MarkS26th) reported

    @Steam Can't sign in, changed password again, can't sign in, changed password again. Don't recognize my email address that you've had for years, missing download for Rome Total War, Steam support is ****, Steam website is ****. Don't respond to requests for support. Steam is ****

  • wengo314
    yoshi314 (@wengo314) reported

    @obakepam @Steam i have a problem with this. you can have a game that was prototyped with ai or ai was used for some minute details. and you can have lazily made game that's really lazy ai slop. and both would fall under this umbrella.

  • EzioKeiji
    Keiji D Ezio (@EzioKeiji) reported

    @obakepam @Steam Indie devs can't afford to hire hundreds of people in multiple studios around the world like UbiSlop or CrapCom. Who cares if the background bushes and trees in a game are AI generated. Truly 1st world problems.

  • pitsnyper
    †🇺🇲🍊🇮🇱🦣𝕄𝔸𝔾𝔸ℤ𝕆ℕ𝔸🦣🌵☀️† (@pitsnyper) reported

    @Steam I hope they're is someone who can help. I have used the password change method on the website, but when I go to login it still gives me a "wrong password" message. And also states that I have the steam authenticator app attached and I do not, at least I think I do not.

    @ToanChan_ @Fromp_Tman @Steam then what's your problem?

    Sometimes I just want to gift my friends a game on steam, but somehow I can't because of my region. Heck, I'm down to pay whatever it is in their region, just give me an option to! @Steam fix pls I'm begging you

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

    Fragoso Ent ▶️ Wishlist GRIM HOPE (@FENTLLC) reported

    @obakepam @Steam AI stream lines a lot of the work flow in game development and removes all the annoying **** developers had to deal with back in the day. Developers still have to go in manually build systems, add the art to the UI, fix bugs in the code etc..
