Steam, video game digital distribution service and storefront developed by Valve Corporation, goes down on every Tuesday leaving gamers complaining about 'no connection' and 'server issues'. There have been multiple reports of the "Tuesday Maintenance" issue on the Downdetector website.
This is because of a scheduled maintenance.
According to the website, 49% users are facing trouble with the server. On the other hand, nearly 39% user are reporting issues with login. Games like GTA V Online, Elden Ring, Overwatch and Destiny 2, among others, are facing outages.
Every Tuesday, Steam performs weekly maintenance that is planned to start between 6 and 9 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. If there are no unforeseen delays, this maintenance should only take thirty minutes. It affects all multiplayer games. A crash or an inability to connect to servers or matches are two possible outcomes of this disruption.
Steam Discount Fest
Fests combine previews of future and unreleased games with the savings of a Steam sale. As a result, there are a ton of demos available under the relevant heading, such as the colony simulations Norland and Mini Settlers as well as a few other titles that I was unaware of. Some developers are might even be saving their demonstrations for the bigger Steam Next Fest, which takes place next month.
While this is going on, there are several discounts available in several categories, including Roguelike, Procedural Generation, Sandbox, and Free To Play. Recently released fantasy citybuilder Fabledom is 35% down; Terra Nil, a game where you terraform a planet and then clean it up, is 30% off; and Wildermyth, a renowned branching strategy-RPG played by Sin and others, is also discounted.
