How to find FB friends on Steam?

[Niklas]

Hey guys, I've just linked my Steam profile to my Facebook profile. In my friends overview it now says "Friends: 59 / 334". What does the second number mean?

Also, the Facebook FAQ (on Steam) mention something called "suggested friends". I've never come across of that, how can I use it?

And finally, there is a link in my profile settings "find FB friends on Steam" which leads me to a page "friend invites" telling me I'd have "no pending invites". (no buttons and nothing else there).

I appreciate your help! =)

PS: Please don't just point me to the Facebook FAQ (I've read them), neither tell me not to use Facebook. Thanks!

The second number of "59/334" is the total amount of friends you can have on steam. About the suggested friends, If any of your FB's friends have a steam account and linked to their FB, they will show up as suggested friends for you(provided they haven't added you on steam).

As you didn't receive any results from the "find FB friends on steam", it's either none of your FB's friends have a steam account or they have yet linking their steam account to their FB

If I remember correctly, the second number states your maximum allowed friends in your Steam profile. This can be raised by leveling up, be it through trading cards/crafting badges. Not sure about the last statement, erhh, is there any chance that you don't have any friends that have their account linked to Facebook - or that all those friends are already added?

Thanks for clarifying, so the mystery of the second number is solved. Where would it display those friend suggestions? I've got 467 friends on Facebook, I think it's very unlikely that there are no more friends using Steam I haven't added yet.

iirc, they will show up on your friends list like a normal friend invitations but with a 'suggested friends' along with their FB's name

Uh, but I admit that being unlikely doesn't imply not being the solution. :S

Experiencing the same thing, If anyone figures out how to see that list of FB friends again please let me know.
