Cannot Link FAF to Steam "Incorrect Login"

Postby Nebhead » 25 Aug 2019, 17:42

Hey all,

Go this issue when attempting to link my newly created FAF client account to Steam.

It simply tells me my Steam login is "incorrect".

If I deliberately enter in a wrong password, it tells me so.
I am using the correct password and Steam user name.

Wrong password entered on purpose screenshot

Correct user name and password screenshot

On the correct PW screenshot, pressing the "Sign in" doesn't do anything.

I cannot login into my FAF client because my account isn't linked with Steam.
And I cannot link my FAF account with Steam.

So I cannot even get past the FAF client initial login.

Please can anyone help?

As germanicianus said on the steam thread,

Switch browser to some new one and try this.

EDIT: since you are now linked, i'll assume it works now

Sorry for late reply, I did get it working in the end.

The recommendation for another browser did work. Used Google Chrome.
