  Hey @WARDOGS I have been given the test play version on @Steam but once it’s installed I’ve tried to launch the game and it shows a login error saying I’m not authorised to use it, how can I fix this please? #Help

  @XBOX @Steam @PlayStation Imagine white men failing soceity, so they choose to sit behind a headset raging at people, even people preferably in thier own ethnicity. White men, fix ******** up. You look like ********* in this generation which is cooked. Be a bit more decent to your own race of people.

  Hey @Steam, I'm having trouble reporting a developer who slipped DLC for their pixelated game behind a $31/month pay wall on Patreon behind your back. Your help site is a little outdated and I've wanted a ticket on this topic for months.

  @Steam I understand security but I will not digit code press your captchas. I guess I can't play War of Rights cause you are more intersted in farming my data than providing me a service?

  @Steam put a disc drive in the next steam machine??? I guarantee the games that make the money would have no issues releasing physical.

  @Steam and @FrameworkPuter 's 3rd parties being hacked days apart - exposing all my personal details is just great. Thank you both for your concern regarding the incident. I feel really valued as a customer. /s "Expect fake messages - email, SMS or phone - that mention your hardware order and appear to come from Steam, Valve or a delivery company. They may quote your address back to you to prove they're genuine. They may ask you to confirm a delivery, pay a small customs or redelivery fee, or sign in somewhere to “verify” your order. Treat all of them as fake."

  @Shinogi_Trench @BasedBickle @Steam Wow, the game has some glaring issues that it takes playtime to figure out? Because they didn’t adequately playtest it? And I don’t get to speak about it? You are a spiritual slave

  @Howard_Lovy cc @pensandpoison might want to pick up on this. Remember how you stated literature was entirely taken over by the libs? Yeahhhh, this is another huge symptom of that. How is there not a @Steam - like service for creative works, such as literature, webcomics, etc.?

  @InternetH0F I’m sure they’ve had a problem with @Steam all this time… maybe I just haven’t heard abt it 🤔

  @Tardgrde @ImCadeYT @Steam Be careful buddy. Seriously. I noticed with the controllers my reservation was due November 26' So guess what? I've already got it in my hands, a week ago i checked the controller page again to see if my reservation was still active and it literally told me i had 2 days left to buy the thing or i'll lose my (Nov 26') reservation. You'd think, They'd email people who got pushed ahead yeah? No..Not one pop up, not one email telling me the controller was available for purchase. If it wasn't for me wanting to check my status on the controllers store page i'd have lost my reservation and been screwed into 2027. I'm absolutely positive this is happening with the hardware too. I put in a purchase request the same day they announced the steam controllers on the store page (and influencers already had reviews up day 1) So, Not only did i have to spend money prior to when i wanted to? I'm sure there are people who live paycheque to paycheque that can't just spend $100 on a whim. They didn't even notify me with an email or in-steam UI pop ups which they should do for things like this. I really advise everyone checks their hardware orders daily on steam or at least emails about reservations, it's the only way to prevent reservations slipping through our hands because we take a break or are too busy IRL. I've been with valve since 2007 and even bought the V1 controller & Steam Link back in 2015. The quality of service has severely been hampered by Valve selling these things on their own storefront which didn't give me a heads up at all. Be careful!!!!

  Fix your game please add elo rollback for cheater games. The amount of cheaters is disgusting and your killing your game by allowing this to happen. Just played against two blatant hackers and lost -450 cause of it. @valvesoftware @Steam @CounterStrike

  Hey @Steam_Support @Steam Any chance of getting an option to IGNORE ALL UPDATES for select games? It's REALLY irritating when your favorite mods are broken because the game updated... (thanks Bethesda really wanted that :p)

  PaLM AI - $PALM (@palmaierc) reported 39 minutes ago

  Major Announcement - Fall 2026 This fall, our local AI harness that rivals everything else currently on the market, root, is going to be shipped as a software product over to @Steam. 1) Publishing the application on Steam will remove the need for a separate signature on the executable. 2) Steam has become the go-to for gaming & creativity related software tools, which goes hand-in-hand with root. 3) Wide accessibility. You acquire it once, and it is yours forever. The Steam Version will not support any cryptocurrency features and all sales revenue will be registered to the Web2 side of our business. It will also be restricted and controlled according to the Terms of Service of Steam and other agreements that the company may become liable to, including a refund policy. We will keep the community updated on the status of the publication. Expect it to happen within a few months. Thank you for your support.

  @JagerBomba890 @ChibiReviews @Steam We migrate to the platforms that dont have this problem,you can stay and get goyslopped freely,i dont care.

  Sammy Snivels (@john_baker7) reported 48 minutes ago

  @flatspritehits @QNDZYcom @Steam Thats because steam doesnt own the game either, once a game is unavailable or shut down steam can only issue you a refund out of their pocket, they cant charge the developer. The main reason is not because they want to keep you money, but because bots buy shut down games to scam

  @Steam I can't connect to the voice room; nothing about your system is stable. Whenever there's an update, a host of problems follows—when will a solution be found for this?

  Dont Askem Eh (@DontAskemeh) reported 56 minutes ago

  I use to grind trophies back in the day, I will agree with the sound as it hits different & they're at least set in stone. Steam overall is better EXCEPT when they get ruined by devs adding random achievements years later. Categories for DLC would be an easy fix, js @Steam.
