I'm going to guess you're referring to our CDN's bad edge server in holland during the 201 launch? They swapped that machine out very quickly once it was brought to our attention.
Otherwise, your bad download speeds are likely your or your ISP's problem, I'm afraid. We're providing a globally mirrored and load-balanced download system, so I don't think you're likely running into problems on our end.
I know! Guess my comment came across a bit too snarky to be funny... Or maybe not snarky enough?
Releasing the game requires coordinating several simultaneous processes as well as support coverage after the fact.
which is probably what you're doing right now...i'm driving home now and when i get there and don't find a 205 download in my account...
...i'll just wait a bit longer....like always. no, wait..the 204 release was a bit earlier than the rest and it really was up when i got home. gosh, i will miss this "it's realease day in my country, where is the link"-threads. see you all in 2009..or in the strong bad section...:D
No, the release isn't automated. Nor can it be. Releasing the game requires coordinating several simultaneous processes as well as support coverage after the fact.
Yeah, but they have to be pressed simultaneously, and they're at opposite ends of the office. It was a poorly planned system, I'll admit, but when you use discount contractors...
Ok. It's 7:37 in California. They should be up by now, right? Hehe. Come on, Telltale. You guys said 11th. 11th started seven hours and thirty six minutes ago. Isn't the release automated? Are we waiting for someone to push the "release" button? I just hope I'll have some of the day left to play it when it's finally avalable.
Bah! It's been the 12th here for an hour and a half, and you don't see us Australians complaining. :P
Just be patient!
...i'll just wait a bit longer....like allways. no, wait..the 204 release was a bit earlier than the rest and it really was up when i got home. gosh, i will miss this "it's realease day in my country, where is the link"-threads. see you all in 2009..or in the strong bad section...:D
I know, they're good fun. Although we haven't reached the heady heights of season one's release days. Now they were good times, except the donkey show. That wasn't fun.
I have now completed a particularly grueling day of wrestling with an upset Panda for 6 hours. That Anti-virus server just keeps tossing more puzzles at me than Sam & Max does.
So in reality I'm feeling a bit in two minds about it not released yet. For one I want the finale now. And for another I think I've had plenty of brainteasers today.

Thank You Telltale - You Californian sleepy heads you. Downloading the episode now and I know it will be a good one. Now all I want is the case file and the soundtrack. Oh, and the disc version.

Now shush, you're interrupting my F5-ing

I see. Two buttons, eh?

It was a joke, I swear! :eek:
Just be patient!

So, if your job starts at 9 AM, episode 205 should be released in an hour.
Its only 8:45am, there , have patience.
Then wire up a robot to push the other button
(11:50AM here)
I hope so. I think I'm going to crack if I have to wait any longer...
Charlie
now!
This is even painful than waiting for 204 a month ago...
Charlie
Or maybe you could use a really long stick
*Gets Boomstick*
wait make that it's
And its HUUUUUUGE! :eek: Almost 200 MB. This is gonna take a while...
Come on, come on!!

np: The Orb - Katskills (The Dream)
Usually the episodes are 100 MB, so if this episode is twice larger than the earlier episodes, it should be twice longer too!
I'm on GameTap, so I got to play it last night.
Mine's only 167 MB?
So this time, instead of a slow server, the little Dutch boy gets 25% less goodness...
She downloads like a bat out of hell though!
OK, I'm off to play the game - where did I put that booze...
