Is Steam down? ❌

Unfortunately have a temporary wifi outage at the apartment. Starbucks had no seating, probably bc its overcrowded now that foxtrot closed. So I begrudgingly pop into CBA. Not only do they steam their 2/10 bagels, but they dont have wifi either. What a joke of an establishment.

Look, they do listen after all! They might even learn! We won! (If you participated in the review bomb on Steam, please take a moment to fix your review to be accurate to how you feel about the game itself.)

Also, while the Helldivers 2 situation is pretty much dying down, its still not available on my region's steam store. Still waiting on whether or not they'll revert it, but who knows.

CW: Nerd rambling about tf2 server. I finally updated my tf2 server 😃, now it launch on lan only (items are offline) because it can't reach steam services despite the fact that i can join it IM ******* LOOSING IT AAAAAAA (i have the exact same server.cfg)

UPDATE: Hot water has returned to UMD dorms after a campuswide steam outage, according to an email sent Monday morning by Residential Facilities.

Helldivers is so back Now...lets see how many gamers actually revert their Steam review🤔 This will be a good exercise in genuine outrage vs dogpiling for the sake of it.

Sony Fix this?? someone please confirm :D hehe Game be on Steam again?? #Helldivers2 #Helldivers #freeHellDivers2

fixed my steam issue. i can finally rest easy and go back to bed.

Pedal down full steam ahead

while this is a good thing, it’s astounding to me that PC players will have a Steam, Epic, Blizzard, and Microsoft account to play games and have no issue but a PSN account? gtfo

bro what ive been daily driving a steam deck for a year and a half because i couldn’t afford a full sized desktop if you really push it it has its share of annoying software issues but it’s plenty tolerable imo. only other issue is battery which is also not that bad

Sony cancels account linking to Helldivers 2 but keeps the limited countries on steam like what? Basically what this means they will eventually push the linking of PSN in the future they just going to let all of this heat die down.

Would be very funny if Steam doubles down and won't lift the current restriction just to **** over Sony

I'm glad this issue has been resolved. However, in my opinion, I would feel as though that if @PlayStation wants any of their games to be linked to a PSN account; it should only be through the consoles and not pc. Or, at least in the PSN launcer/app and not through @Steam.

PlayStation Network has backed down on requiring Helldivers 2 players to create a PSN account #GamingNews #Steam #Sony #SonyPlayStation #PlayStationNetwork #Gaming #GoodNews #Helldivers2

Didn't see an issue with needing a psn. It was on the steam page. PSN linking deep dicking 177 countries was bad change management and should have been flagged as a risk before the change proceeded.

Lmao, steam is tripping giving me this page in my library

Super proud of everyone involved. Now go fix those steam ratings

As a reminder: Mass Effect: Legendary Edition on Steam (playing it right now) - completely SINGLE-PLAYER game, not any sign of multiplayer content, from EA requires to link an EA account with Steam and nobody has a problem with this ?

Now that Sony has backed down, will people change their negative reviews on Steam about #Helldivers2? I doubt that.

EVERYONE GO FIX YOUR STEAM REVIEWS OF HELLDIVERS AND HELLDIVERS 2 NOW

My problem is that an influx of negative steam reviews is the equivalent of a bunch of out of community youtubers talking about how NBA 2K is dead yet the game gets a gajillion purchases every release, it’s all show. for now player charts remain “normal”

I'm positive that Steam allowing refunds is the only reason Sony backed down re: Helldivers 2 drama.

We did it!!! YOU did it! Playstation NO LONGER requiring Steam and PSN linking!!! GREAT JOB EVERYONE!

All you PC gamers better fix that review score on steam ASAP.

Should I refund Helldivers 2? I'd there's going to be a lot of people that stop playing, they'll stop making content. And since they're accepting steam refunds I'm thinking of taking my chance so I don't get ****** later if servers are shut down and **** from money loss.

People think Steam will just issue mass refunds for Helldivers 2... Meanwhile, the comment section be like: #Helldivers2

The more I read about the Helldivers PSN issue the more is show just how unprepared and out of touch Sony was bring the PSN platform to PC. Sony didn't even realize steam and PSN had completely different region availability before selling Helldivers 2 lol.

@asoundeffect @helldivers2 @ArrowheadGS @PlayStation Couldn't sony just make guest accounts for steam players? That nobody has to actually make the account. It just makes an accounts links ur steam ID and no need for personal data. This would probably help region locked players too

@GiveMeBanHammer That's likely done by steam to stop refunds. Sony needs a foothold on PC to compete with Microsoft, so it's understandable they don't like being gaslighted to change the original requirement. I hope they find a solution to allow these regions to make PSN accounts soon.
