    @Steam why can't I login into my account or create new acct? I've been having these issues for more than two months now, please help me out

  • themalcolmmind Malcolm (@themalcolmmind) reported

    @Steam someone created an account using my email and I am receiving dozens upon dozens of login codes a day. Steam support isn’t helping and it’s getting to a point where I can’t navigate my emails because they are coming in so quickly.

  • icebrkr216 icebrkr216 (@icebrkr216) reported

    @Steam the whole Fallout 76 1st thing? You need to work on the subscription timing. It's already Oct 6th (just turned 1233) and I still haven't gotten my atoms. Previously, I was locked out of my 1st perks of the stash box and tent. Plz fix.

  • ThyBeastKing ThyBeastKing (@ThyBeastKing) reported

    @Steam my account got hacked into, went to try to go sign in to change the password, can't read my email or my password. So i did the natural thing and tried to go through the "can't sign in?" Stuff and now apparently my email doesn't exist, and I haven't been getting any emails-

    Hey @AskPlayStation why is @Steam more competent than your useless company? Maybe take a page from their book and issue refunds rather than banning users who buy broken content and get a refund from @Paypal because Playstation decided “Thief” is the character class running them.

  • n0_grief Thomas Legan (@n0_grief) reported

    @libretro @Steam With this update i'm no longer able to use netplay with the FlyCast emulator, it was working prior to update but now upon clicking 'host' "Core does not support netplay" and "Failed to initialize netplay" is there a plan to fix this?

  • JacobGr71515290 Jacob Griffiths (@JacobGr71515290) reported

    @Steam Fix your Steam Guard and 2-factor authentication, its obviously flawed and doesn’t prevent people from gaining access to accounts!

  • charan718 Charan (@charan718) reported

    @Steam Please fix the Next Fest badge.

  • questjm3000 ✨QUE$T✨ (@questjm3000) reported

    @EAFIFADirect @EAHelp ITS STILL NOT WORKING!!!! Wth is this???? @Steam won’t issue my refund either 🤬🤬🤬

  • WaterTribeJ Jared (@WaterTribeJ) reported

    It is 2022 but @Playstation is about 300 years behind @Steam’s customer service.

    @EmpirePortugal @Steam Did you manage to fix it? because I'm having the same issue, and nothing seems to work

  • JenboProduction Janice (@JenboProduction) reported

    @BelovedRapture @Steam I just playtested it and when Johan(?) drew his sword the game crashed - no error or anything. Anyone else has this issue? Been looking forward to play this one.

  • WaterTribeJ Jared (@WaterTribeJ) reported

    @Steam can y’all send a person to @Playstation and show them “how to not be incompetent ***** and actually issue refunds rather than scamming players using the service”? Pretty please @Steam?

  • ElaineJackson12 Author, genealogy addict, love sci-fi (@ElaineJackson12) reported

    @Steam is there a problem with the #Steam site at the moment? Trying to log on and it just won't open.

  • Randymash Randymash (@Randymash) reported

    @mageatlantica @Steam Just got disconnected from the Client as well, so did my friend who's half way across the world from me so must be server issues :(

  • bigheadmikebmx professional **** talker BigHeadMikebmx (@bigheadmikebmx) reported

    pretty sure every game ive ever got from @Steam has always ran into some kind of problem

  • JenboProduction Janice (@JenboProduction) reported

    @BelovedRapture @Steam Now that I remember - I also accidentally pressed f12 so it restarted the game. Maybe that caused the crash early ingame? 2/2

  • BelovedRapture Blind (@BelovedRapture) reported

    @JenboProduction @Steam Oh no! Sorry to hear that @JenboProduction. Could you try loading the auto-save and let me know if that happens again? So you’re saying there was no specific error message?

  • sicjp0 David (@sicjp0) reported

    @OnDeck @Steam I understand you all are busy and what not but I’ve been trying to reach out regarding my steam deck that was stolen on delivery. Please can someone get back to me regarding this issue. I’ve already made a police report and FedEx claim

  • Artezyfied Artezy | Alan (@Artezyfied) reported

    @prtTANK @whylinger @Steam It's not the controller it's the game, 1 common fix going around is to change to a different stadium other then the FUT stadiums.
