Steam Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
CelticTiger (@IRISHANARCHY199) reported@KlassischeMann @valvesoftware @Steam I think the main reason for the frustration is the storefront collapsing under the pressure within the first second of the item going up for purchase. I wouldn’t have gotten one myself if I hadn’t brute-forced the continue button on the purchase screen that kept giving errors.
-
Cooper (@AyeimCooper) reported@IndeedWholesome @valvesoftware @Steam Sold out already and I was having issues trying to push my through 😢
-
Mario Garcia (@drakaritto) reported@Steam Dear Steam Support, I have been trying to resolve an issue with my account for over a month now. Despite contacting your online support multiple times, I keep receiving a message that my account is tied to a sanctioned country.
-
ViDEOGOMEZ (@videogomez) reported@Null1130250 @valvesoftware @Steam They've had YEARS to fix their international supply problems, I had to buy my Steam Deck from a third party just because I live a few kilometers below Texas.
-
cofffin (@HWMreb) reported@IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck Fine for me. User error.
-
Julianthethief (@RedeYesHood) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam @UbisoftSupport the source of the problem is ur own goddamn launcher and not steam so don't spread misinformation .
-
KV12 (@KnightVision12) reported@IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck “That’s not demand, that’s a broken purchase system.” ok clanker
-
Fallout Flashy (@DrewFlashy1) reportedI was skeptical about @Steam's controller costing an outrageous $100, $30 more than a Nintendo Pro controller. However, I now know you can open it to maybe fix it yourself and if you drop it, it Wilhelm screams. Such humanity is worth it. Our household will have 2.
-
Cuprumator 🇺🇦 (@Cuprumator) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Dudes, fix payment in Europe. I cant proceed with my purchase
-
Red Sox Royal Rooter (@RoyalRooterSox) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Unable to buy due to errors for 20+ minutes, then it sold out. Crazy.
-
Smitty Werbenjagermanjensen (@TheVisitorSNAFU) reported@GooningOnRumble @Steam Did stream also crash? Some delisted products if gifted from an inventory won’t work and can crash the system. Also is the game sold in the West or is it an Asian game like Dead Or Alive volleyball?
-
moT (@moTtheWhite) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam Lol, steams not the problem. Your ****** launcher is
-
Eldritch Boggart (@EldritchBoggart) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Fix your payment system. Broken system so everyone missed out on the pathetically low quantity of controllers you provided for purchase.
-
𝑺𝒂𝒍 (@yukariss_da) reported@Steam I try to login to my account but i cant. I dont know why When i try to send code to my email, i received nothing. Just ferivy button...i dont understand because its a loop hole I never add steam guard. But you ask for it. Im confuse. I dont know how to recover this.
-
Zalzarr【Momma Quack 】 (@Zalzarrquack) reportedImagine harassing me 4 hours just sending me invites after invites like begging you wanna play with me, doing 3 different accounts on twitch, getting banned 3 times, changing your Steam name almost 5 times and THEN sending me this unban request?! @Steam your blocking system is not working btw.
-
Mike Mills (@MikeMillz34) reported@Steam Fix your ****
-
twitch hxhyt (@xhxhyt) reportedLol what ******* gaming service do I need to play the ******* game I have everything @ForzaHorizon @Steam #forza6
-
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.
-
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.
-
frogo // カエル (@tappinfrogo) reported@yorksoriginal @Steam Doesn't it fix itself once you close the game?
-
IoriShakor (aka Jamaal) (@IoriShakor) reported@Snowmobile2004 @Steam @OnDeck I'm glad it worked for you, but it looks like a lot of other people have the same issue and tried more times. The algorithm God blessed you
-
PatriotCentral (@patriot_central) reported@IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck It is server overload, dummy. Nothing was broken. You are just retarded.
-
Kompeter (@benKompeter) reported@lichqueenie @UbisoftSupport @Steam I tried to play Far Cry 3 but it kept crashing constantly. Ubisoft launcher was the issue and best way to fix it was pirating it because it avoids ubi launcher lol
-
Jeremy Wood (@excitedpixels) reported@Steam @Steam_Support do you have a random shipment generator for orders as it seems you are shipping the steam controllers randomly. I ordered at 57 just before, and my wife's at 18 past because you were broken for her. It's Def not in any kind of order which seems unfair. :(
-
james (@radojames99) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Sucks you were able to let me put in money no problem, but let the scalpers buy everything.
-
0G_M3T47R0N (@Met47ron) reported@IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck I was met with that error and just spam clicked the link until I got a different page to finally populate!
-
Eldritch Boggart (@EldritchBoggart) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Fix your system, given that everyone was getting a transaction error, this has to be one of the biggest console hardware launch debacles in the last decade. Guess people who wanted one are out of luck because you can't handle payment transactions properly during a blitz.
-
titan.holo (@TitanHoloCS) reported@nobullet4u @Steam no problem 🙏
-
Fikusoowy (@Fikusoowy) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam Just fix your ******* code at least
-
يَعْقُوب (@Yaqub_the_white) reported@GeraltofGoonia @valvesoftware @Steam Welp, now I have to go help fix this ****...
