Beta is the new "cool", plus any problems on the site can be responded to with "We're still in beta, sorry".

I think they need to somehow convince EA to not be full of douchebaggery and to let GOG sell Wasteland.

Aliasalpha: Yeah, I still can't get to the page in the catalogue that sells Planescape Torment...

VirtualPenguin: Yeah, and if that weren't enough the page which sells the System Shock bundle doesn't seem to be working either...

Get in line, gentlemen. I have a Thief page or two not working for me, either.

Among the major improvements GoG could have, to my opinion, would be a "proper" forum and not this message board. I mean, well, just an option "send me an email when a reply has been made in this thread" would be awesome !

Oh i hope not. One of the reasons i like hanging out at gog is that they have a nice forum, not the clone ones you find at every other site. If this was one of those it'd just lose it's charm.
One thing i think GOG as a Beta is lacking is better ways for us to send feedback on games and problems. Eg:
1 - The game installer should include links to the support pages and forums for the game, or even pull up the latest support news (when internet is available).
2 - the installer should include the ability for us to submit our system specs and feedback, so GOG can build a better picture of which systems games work with and don't work with.
(for example, 2 of the 3 games i've played off GOG have had common graphics/speed issues... so there is obviously something up with this particular spec of CPU/graphics card. If GOG could collect (voluntarily of course) info about problem configs, they could maybe target those problems).
Right now the beta seems to be entirely on the GOG side, and as users we aren't really helping much at all.

Agreed 100%.
Love this forum/hate most other forums. :)

Well, nice for you if you have time to check regularly for new answers. I don't.

How would the "proper" forum fix that though? I don't really frequent any other forums, just one, so I don't really know what you mean.
