"White Noise" scared the piss out of me.

EVP is creepy as fuck. We used to play around with it as teens, but no results anywhere like some of the ones I heard out there.

I'm an Atheist and I do not believe in ghost, but you WILL NOT see me playing around with that stuff! :P
Game download speed from the site and in the downloader that im now using to get the remaining bundled games down is very slow only 2.3MB/s. Maybe somebody on gog could fix their download servers finally? That would be very much appreciated.

HypersomniacLive: All site pages load considerably slower. Careful observation shows that it's the "account" portion in the top nav bar that takes longer to fully load; I assume it's due to the unbundling of games that makes the account "heavier". To me that's another negative side-effect of GOG's decision, a side-effect they either didn't think through or don't particularly care about in hope that everyone will jump on the otional client.

Also, since at least yesterday, I have to log out twice before I'm actually logged off.

Thanks GOG, much appreciated.

EDIT: Regarding the log-out issue - perhaps one of the web devs miscoded the "LOGOUT" button to perform the "Take me to the front page" action. Someone should look into it?
Nineteen hours later and site pages load normally for me, and I have my owned tags back! I haven't been here in a couple of days (St. Patrick's Day and all). :)

A couple of times in the last 6 months, I was surprised to find that I was already logged in when I visited the site the next time. Since then, I have made a habit out of closing all my tabs and logging out only from the front page. So far I have not had a problem.

I see absolutely no reason why the unbundling should make the nav bar load slower unless you are in your library.

The future "social" features, on the other hand...

Ok, guys after using the downloader I can say that regardless of the stable mark on it its highly unstable and has crashed five times today + I had to do 2 hard resets since it crashed the whole pc twice. I hope that the new downloader in Galaxy will be better then this. At least this made me remember why I stopped using it before.

Either I'm extremely lucky or you are extremely unlucky, because I always use the downloader and I don't remember it ever crashing. =/

I don't know what it is but I always had very bad experience with gog downloader on my old pc and now on my new pc. It basically freezes up and stopps dowloading and I have to shut it down through task manager or it freezes and crashes the system. Its just my luck it seems.

The "log out twice" issue continues.

Regarding the currency setting issues - the only page that remembers my chosen setting (USD) with consistency is the The Witcher 3 pre-order page; coincidence? p_O
And one more issue popped up today - see attached pic.
Note it's with the GOG Downloader option disabled.

Anyone else with a similar experience?


EDIT: False alarm, sorry. I had fiddled with the text zoom feature on another site earlier today and it spilled over here.

When I click on Community, I see on the left "General Forums" and "Game specific forums." I thought that any game in my library would appear in the "Game specific forums," but I just bought Tales of Maj'Eyal and it's not there. Even after logging out, and waiting a day, it's still not there. Four days ago, an announcement was made about a new version. One hour ago, someone posted something. So it's not like the Tales of Maj'Eyal forum is not being used.

Should all of my games be represented in the "Games specific forums"?

If not, what determines whether a game is represented or not?

Normally games that I've purchased have been automatically added to my "Game Specific Forums" list. However my most recent purchases haven't, so I'm guessing it's somehow linked to the unbundling. Hopefully when that calms down it, and other problems, will be sorted.

No is is not linked to the unbundling. This problem has been here way before that (for months now). So don't get your hope up that it will be fixed soon.
