Minor errors
Postal 2's "SMS tunes" extra. Should be "SMS tones."
MDK2's manual is labeled as 1MB. The download is 4mb.
Fallout Tactics Warfare extra. File name is "fallout_tacics_warfare"
MegaRace 3's manual says it's 6 pages when it's actually 20.

Vagabond: Minor errors
Thanks Vagabond.

Miaghstir: <snip>
Could you please check if the infoboxes thing seems fixed to you ?

It looks like the way the clicks on covers are handled changed, when an infobox is already open the next click on a different cover just closes that box instead of trying to close an already open box and opening the new one at the same time.

When you reported it i was able to reproduce it but i can't anymore.

A small update from our side:

Namur: Making a post by relpying to someone and then deleting the quote before posting will cause the 'quoted' user to still receive a reply notification
This is not when editing after posting to remove a quote, it's when deleting a quote before posting. Miaghstir and Tyler62092 caught this one, thanks guys.
This is by design. You don't have to quote the original poster to reply to his post.

Namur: Receiving a game as a gift doesn't add the specific game board to the user's 'favourite boards' list, giving a game as a gift does
It should be the other way around. Thanks DrIstvaan.
Fixed

Namur: Users are reporting doubled game covers on their shelfs
OutOfTimer, and [url=http://www.gog.com/en/forum/general/broken_bookshelf_with_2_duke_nukem_3ds]here, Starmaker, here.
Here's another post with a similar report.
**I'm under the impression this only happens with the 'manual sorting' option on the shelf
Fixed

Namur: Games redeemed as gifts are not removed from wishlist automatically
Thanks alexei_net.
Fixed

Namur: Purchased games are not removed from wishlist automatically
Thanks SemperFi and maciek
Fixed

Namur: Downloads for games that were removed from catalogue are not hooked up to the downloader
These just don't get added to the queue.
Fixed

Namur: Gifts can't be resend when they still haven't been redeeemed
'Resend' option is missing. Thanks punxas.
This is by design. You can manually resend the gift certificate if you wish.
avatar
Namur: Reviews not carrying over to the relevant boards as threads OR older threads missing
More info on this one by DrIstvaan, here
**I'm not sure if i'm understanding this one properly. If the description of the issue needs adjustment let me know.
This is by design. We no longer have an option to post comments on user reviews.

Namur: *Login window doesn't show it's a secure connection
More detailed explanation byTeflon.Djinn, here
This is by design. It would be a pointless reload.
avatar
Namur: *SSL vs NON SSL stuff
More detailed explanation by DirtyCamper, here
This is by design, due to technical reasons. It does not affect user security in any way.

Venom: A small update from our side:
Whoa, that's alot of stuff fixed.

Both the fixes and the update are much appreciated, thank you Venom.

Guess it's time to prune the op ;)
When viewing GOGMixes, the "download game now" link for games you don't have directly links to the check-out page so you can enter your details and buy it directly. This is good. What could be made better is the fact that the "redownload game now" for games you already have also links to that same page, it should - like the gamepage redownload link - point to that game on my shelf.

Additionally, when going to the my account page through the URLs for gifts and wishlist...
https://www.gog.com/en/myaccount/gifts
https://www.gog.com/en/myaccount/wishlist
...the content doesn't load, the spinning circle just keeps spinning. The URLs for the shelf and owned list works, as does clicking the buttons for the wishlist and gifts when either owned page is loaded first.

Venom: This is by design. You don't have to quote the original poster to reply to his post.
Unfortunately, this makes it difficult to know who replied to me unless I click the "you got a new reply" icon in the thread listing (and I'm just assuming that works, haven't tried it in the last few months). It'd be neat to have an icon by each post (even already read ones) that this is a reply to one of my posts - similar to the icon showing where people quoted me.
According to my tests, the system apparently tracks 5 of your previous account passwords and throws out a nondescript error ("Changes not saved - please correct the information above.") if you try to change your password to one you used before.

I suppose this is a feature, but I don't quite get why it's there. Could at least the error message be a little less vague?

More minor things!

The big banner image always wants to reload the image from scratch. Even after CTRL-F5ing/refreshing and going to the page regularly. It may just be on my end, but I've tried on Chrome on two different computers and the same thing happens.

Inconsistency of forum names. Forums for game series' are all varied. For instance: Redneck Rampage Series, Empire Earth series, and Zork. All series forums but all differently named. Either capitalize/lowercase the "s" in series or remove "series" altogether!

Typos

http://www.gog.com/en/thanks/ "tones" should be "tons" (or "tonnes")

http://www.gog.com/en/support/policies/privacy_policy Eliminate the "won't not" in Point 1 in "Information Collected by GOG": 1. We store the information you enter on our Website. You can choose not to provide it, but then you won't not be able to access many of the Website's functionality and features.

http://www.gog.com/en/support/policies/terms_of_use Lots of typos here. I won't paste the phrases, but instead will list them to the proper spelling.

non-commerical -> non-commercial
WHATSOVEVER -> WHATSOEVER
PRORIETARY -> PROPRIETARY
THROUGHT -> THROUGH
ARSISING -> ARISING
Changes to the Terms of Use GOG at it's sole discretion -> its sole discretion

http://www.gog.com/en/sitemap Just some awkward wording here. "Check what's our policy on Privacy and Terms of use and other legal stuff." -> "Check our..."

"If you want to give us feedback or ask questions regarding the use of site feel free to contacts us. " -> "If you want to give us feedback or ask questions regarding the use of the site feel free to contact us. "

"Except for gaming, you can also discuss your favourite games and meet new people, express your opinions and much more." -> This is just a strange description. It doesn't make sense.

http://www.gog.com/en/spreadtheword "If you want the latest and greatest fashions that are tearing up the runways or to wear the very same GOG.com thong that Paris Hilton ;) check out GOG.com apparel at cafepress.com" - "...or to wear the very same GOG.com thong that Paris Hilton wears."

https://www.gog.com/en/gift/ "You can login or create a new account in the begining of redeem process." -> "...beginning of the redeem process."

Other observations. There are instances where English in American spelling are substituted by spelling with the British versions of words "favorite"/"favourite."

Vagabond: <Typos, lots of them>
Jesus Vagabond, you were bored out of your mind mate ? Thanks, that's a truck load of typos ;)


I keep seeing folks asking about the support articles/pages for games that were removed from catalogue. Knowing if they're temporarily or permanently down sure would be nice.

I haven't even checked support pages!! (And yes I was bored. It was 8AM on a Sunday!!)

Vagabond: (And yes I was bored. It was 8AM on a Sunday!!)
Ah, that explains it then ;)
Another observation: Upon making a post that creates a new page in a thread, you are redirected to the page before the new page. Intentional?
