How to specifically secure a reservation spot. Do we just go through regular buy process?

[–]Perfect-Witness601 10 points11 points  (0 children)

High probability to set up within regular buy process, only extra step us to confirm via email.

ive been wondering this but i dont think anyone knows

[–]sirlancealot18 15 points16 points  (8 children)

What does good standing mean? Like no VAC ban?

[–]nicklor 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would still try tomorrow I doubt a vac ban will block it

[–]Hyd8ra 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That should look like a process of purchasing from the beginning

[–]Past-Coat1438 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Best of luck to everyone! Hopefully it’s not (or at least less of) a shit show !

Question for anyone who has one - Does it have rumble motors in the triggers, and does it support Xbox style impulse triggers in Forza Horizon 5?

Planning on playing FH6 with this, but might end up going back to an Xbox pad for that specifically if it doesn't

[–]KingNyxus 15 points16 points  (1 child)

You can find this on the previous press reviews, it does not have rumble in the triggers.

It only has haptics in the grips and trackpads

Very few games actually have support for it anyways, usually first party Xbox games or mainstream shooters

I personally don’t have much use for the steam controller, the main selling point is mouse control and gyro which 99% of games on steam don’t need.

[–]Jademalo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ah damn, that's a shame.

It still ticks far more boxes than any of the others for me, honestly gyro is the biggest dealbraker for the xbox pad for me.

finally some good news

[–]ChetTheAnteater 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I still have 1 in my cart from the first try, can I just check out this time and then wait for my email? Thanks.

UK buyer here. I purchased my Steam Controller on launch day and according to Steam it's been shipped. However, the courier (GLS) are stating they're still waiting for the parcel to arrive to them. This status has not been updated since 6th May. Is anyone else having this issue?

[–]sheepandlambs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Me too.

I think this lends credence to the belief that Valve truly was surprised by the popularity of the controller. I don't think they expected to sell out right away, and they didn't have the infrastructure in place to ship them all out right away.

[–]Drunkpanada 3 points4 points  (1 child)

The shipping times varied from 3-5 to 6-10 business days. Literally changed half way through the morning

[–]f0ur_G 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, I think I missed this, then. Thanks!

[–]treeco123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Similar here (also UK), it's been in that state for about 24 hours now. Wondered whether to ask support, but if it's not just me I'll just assume it's normal.

[–]Mororocks 1 point2 points  (3 children)

Same buddy I remember these lads taking ages to deliver my steam deck as well

[–]f0ur_G 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Ah, so I guess I'll be waiting a while then? Thanks for the heads up, and sorry to hear your Steam Deck took ages to arrive

[–]Mororocks 4 points5 points  (1 child)

I can't remember exactly how long it took but remember it pissing me the fuck off at the time. Im thinking maybe Monday or Tuesday next week before I'll get it.

[–]f0ur_G 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm hoping for the same, then. Thanks for the info!

[–]KingoKings365 7 points8 points  (4 children)

Of course this queue begins RIGHT when I start a shift at work

[–]Maybe_In_Time 18 points19 points  (2 children)

Just go to the bathroom like 3 minutes before it starts and go on your phone app lol

[–]wyomingTFknott 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Boss makes a dollar, I make a dime, that's why I buy controllers on company time.

[–]KingoKings365 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Fair enough

[–]Instagalactix -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Of course you find something to complain about. This community is never happy.

[–]thenotsorealkk 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Hmm, judging from the announcement and this post, it seems that the reservation system is not available in Japan, so we’ll probably have to wait separately from komodo station?

[–]Other_Hall5820 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong: What about us that must use Komodo Station?

[–]IdonTunderStan9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 hours for me

[–]ray120 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are selling more when they haven’t fulfilled initial release.

[–]KurizuTheGoodra -1 points0 points  (1 child)

What's the specifics behind "Your account must be in good standing on Steam"? I have a game ban on my account from over ten and a half years ago. Will that stop me from making a reservation? I already can't interact with most stuff on the steam workshop because of it. I'd be pretty dissapointed if it did because of a mistake I made a *decade* ago

[–]I3ravo_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hopefully

Better for me

[–]Ardjin -1 points0 points  (1 child)

Is there any way to order outside of these regions, by the way? I'm in South Africa, and it just says not available in this region

[–]-_Vignesh_- -1 points0 points  (0 children)

unfortunately we are not customers in valves eyes

[–]GraffDK -1 points0 points  (1 child)

I have a Vac ban from 2007, am i not eligible to reserve the controller then?

[–]Richard-Squeezer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good, get wrecked cheater

[–]id_mew -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have a Steam Controller in my cart from when I was deciding to purchase it when it was first released. Should I remove it from my cart so there are no issues when trying to reserve one today?
