    Anyone else having issues with Cloud Syncing on @Steam the last couple days? Eventually it works but takes forever and since i often switch between devices it is really annoying.

    I really hate doing this but @Steam the customer support is lacking lately. My account got restricted because of a purchase that I refunded and now it’s saying I disputed it and it’s going to be a month before I’m able to make any purchases. Can you please fix this?

    @CounterStrike dog **** game full of cheaters 🫠 Why can't @Steam make it that if you have a game ban of any sort you shouldn't be allowed to play online games And multie van bans. gee I wonder how low life this guy is. Fix your ******* game so I can just play against 5 legits!

    I like Linux, and am moving to it slowly but @Steam and @Blackmagic_News needs to fix their Linux versions to run seamlessly and add the Code needed to fully use their software.

    @2_left_thumbs @JohnTit11284680 @Steam i ran into problem of some games not running well because they turned out to be made on unreal engine or unity. i dont have issues with 2D unity games, but a lot of 3D ones run very poorly. i think most other people dislike certain for proper reasons too.

  • 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

    Sethix (@se7hix) reported

    So, additional work ahead of @Steam and @Steam_Support ahead regarding all software in their store, because if they are providing malware they will have serious trouble, this has happened before and if it continues happening valve is showing that's a platform no longer safe.

    EVEILCHARM (@EveilCharm) reported

    @ChibiReviews People should be losing their **** over the fact that payment processors wouldn't dare touch a game this big that will drag their asses to court if they tried to deny service. Wish @Steam would step up for the games on it's platform too.

    @Bristian_Flores @IOInteractive @Steam Also I can’t get past the title screen after the update game not working at all

    @EGOSOFT @Steam @GOGcom Another problem is that one bad mod for a old ship scadia just crashes the game. This is so annoying!!! I love that ship.

    @luvk8e @Moonie__OS @Steam Funny how basically all races in USA have no problem with each other except blacks . Why is that ?

  • fastpuppy
    FastPuppy (@fastpuppy) reported

    @AndoCal78 @CrimsonDesert_ There are a few reports about the crash in the @Steam discussion board for the game so it isn't an isolated problem and is likely related to the last update. Over 200 hours of playtime this without incident before this.

  • 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 Just consider it a historical game. Problem solved.

    @MaekaAmaya @Steam While I have zero issues with AI used....as long as it is up front, and I don't care if it was used or not, this is still a good idea and feature. AI is just a new brand of potato chips, allow people to filter it out if they want.

  • HHG4Life
    HandheldGaming4Life (@HHG4Life) reported

    EA games are just so bad! The jankie game save setup between @EA and @Steam means your only ever one game crash away from a wiped save file and start over. 🤦 Been racing my son on NFS Heat. Was just leveling up to his level now back to level 1. Ruuuuuuubish!

    Josiah Young (@Inv3ntive15) reported

    I’ve struggle bussed with all kinds of support from companies in this last year. Incompetent support, slow support, non-existent support… Had an issue with my Steam Deck and @Steam solved it in about two hours. If the world gotta get run by big corps, I’d choose Steam.

  • GMJSindarov
    Javokhir Sindarov (@GMJSindarov) reported

    @Steam @Steam_Support Message from Javokhir's agent and manager : Javokhir didn't get banned, he's not cheating nor anything, He just has a problem with his inventory, and we know steam support could be slow, so he wanted to use his X account as he knows some cs2 people follow him

  • beestinging7
    plutogam3r (@beestinging7) reported

    @DigitalActOfGod @Moonie__OS @Steam Steam does allow these. Also I need to say people publish all sorts of games every single day, I bet it is hard to keep up with how much gets published on the platform. Bringing up any issues with a game is one step in the right direction though before automatically thinking

  • voidyfrown
    Voidy 🏳️‍⚧️🖤 (@voidyfrown) reported

    @itsmja00 @Steam I put in a refund request and they gave me an error lol I’m not even really expecting anything I just don’t morally agree with how they’ve conducted themselves. If the game was still running and being updated I wouldn’t request a refund, and I haven’t opened it in years
