It goes down pretty much every night. The Community works 50% of the time, the other time it loads slow as shit. Can't access your inventory or see anything in it. Sometimes only half the inventory loads. Often the site is down as well. Steam used to be good, but now they are almost like YouTube, pos that goes down all the time.

To be honest, it's like Valve has just regressed to the old 2004/2005 days, where Steam really was just a steaming pile of shite. The web servers are abysmal lately

I noticed this trend with far too many services lately. What are they up to ? Switching to cheaper services to save a buck?

I don't know and it's really quite worrying too, Valve are so big now it's like they think nobody can do or say anything about it. "Our servers are too slow? Site keeps going down? So? What are you going to do about it, buy from Origin or Uplay instead? Laughing"

Yep, pretty much. It's like they stopped giving a fuck these days. Just did a tracert to www.steamcommunity.com cause it was working like shite, and guess what all the hops are ok until it reaches .valve servers. Then it either times out or it's like 4000ms ping.

Noticed 9 of my steam friends had been offline in exactly 10 hours. Smells like a DC.

you know why is steam piece of shit?

origin average download speed: 30mb/s
uplay: 25mb/s
steam: 3mb/s

I must wait two hours for something which can be downloaded in 10 minutes. I am working with their support to fix this shit, so far they had like 4 nonsense and not working ideas.

Well that is the thing, they somehow think it's 'confidential' data.
When you know certain processes or inner workings of a company, but lack the details and you ask they go 'Oh shit' and act like they are guarding state secrets.

Usually helps if you can get hold of anyone other than support or people on the floor.
Frustrating to have to deal with that tho.

It's like this pretty much daily now. You can refresh all you want, your inventory only half loads.
